Yes. This is quite the challenge we face here in our little prairie city that’s run by people who want to pretend we’re a much bigger city like Calgary or Edmonton or Winnipeg so they push to build giant state-of-the art arenas. And ball stadiums. And the best football stadium in the country while showing […]
Just as we watched drug poisonings and Narcan training spread across American libraries before becoming more common in Canada, I suspect religiously-motivated book banning requests (and religious board members being even more activist in trying to direct library’s directions, not just individual books) is the next thing American libraries will export to Canada.

By most accounts, Sask Party MLA Mark Docherty was a decent dude. I know I always enjoyed my interactions with him – when he would come to the library I was working at for events or programs or when I would bump into him at community events or whatever. Given his background and resume, I’ve […]

Chief Cadmus Delorme of Cowessess First Nation is one of, if not the most, high profile Indigenous leaders in Saskatchewan for his work in business, child welfare and much more. (Unfortunately, part of his high profile,including an interview for CBS’s “60 Minutes” show, is for very tragic reasons.) Above is a pic of myself and […]
I’ve spent a few days at the CUPE Sask convention this week and I honestly thought it was my first time attending but turns out my Covid brain fog is real because I found a pic I took when I was there in 2015. It’s of Sask Party Minister, Don Morgan, trying to be relatable […]
