The Years Have Flown By: Happy 50th Anniversary Ray & Janet Hammond!

A couple weeks ago, I took my parents on a charter flight as a unique way to see how the years have flown by as we visited a few significant locations from their life ahead of their 50th wedding anniversary I was originally going to do the flight on their actual anniversary which happens to […]

“I have no shame in pleading to the public” – Sask Chief Public Health Officer Gets Emotional

I don’t think Scott Moe has the emotional maturity and empathy to speak like this… Moe does, however, has the ability to turn Saskatchewan into a dystopian nightmare… Several of my patients were selected for evacuation to Ontario this week. Though clinical teams played no role in choosing who went (all handled higher up), we […]

Friday Fun Link – “The Years Have Flown By” 50th Anniversary Charter Plane Ride

One of Saskatchewan’s Highest Profile Anti-Vaxxers & Former PPC Candidate Rumoured To Be In Saskatoon Covid Ward

But I don’t think he qualifies for the Herman Cain Award…yet. I want ZERO Saskatchewan residents to die from covid. Pro-vax, anti-vax, young or old. Perfect health or numerous comorbidities, it's a gruesome way to suffer and die. My condolences to @MarkFriesen08 as I've verified someone with his name is at RUH. — Kyle Anderson […]

A Few Random Thoughts From 2021 @Sask_NDP Virtual Convention

Shea and I signed up to attend the virtual Sask NDP convention this weekend. We’ve been to a handful of conventions over the years since our first in 2009 – mostly in years when there was a leadership vote but also as delegates from our constituency on occasion. (With that said, we’re not actively involved […]

Everything Wrong With The National Day for Truth & Reconciliation (A Partial & Incomplete List)

Hudson’s Bay Company selling orange shirts. Provincial governments such as Saskatchewan who don’t declare it a holiday (even as some cities within those provinces do). Catholic schools putting the Christian cross on their orange shirts. Businesses, organizations & people that don’t buy their orange shirts from Indigenous companies. Our federal government and its representatives continuing […]

Okay, did this a couple elections ago for #Elxn42 but don’t think I did the last election. But no big plans tonight other than a stiff rye & ginger ale so let’s see what we can see… – get home from work at 6pm to see that the split is roughly Libs – 21, Con […]
