Friday Fun Link – Twitter Just Learned Sasha Obama’s Real Name (And That The Obamas Have Lied About Another Birth Certificate Issue!)

Throwback Thursday – Some Random Thoughts on the Last Day (?) of STC #skpoli

Yesterday was the last day of the Saskatchewan Transportation Company which was shuttered as part of the Sask Party’s extreme cuts in their last budget.

Some Random Thoughts From #rcmpmusicalride in #yqr
