During past Freedom to Read weeks, I’ve noticed that everything starts to look like a Freedom of Expression issue. (That’s probably a good thing that we should keep in mind year-round anyhow.) For example, we’re only halfway through the week and I’ve had three distinct experiences that weren’t official FTRW events but which brought forward […]

FTRW 2013 – Day 2 – #ftrweek – Freedom of Expression, Censorship & #skndpldr
Given the hash tags I’m using for this post, I suspect there are going to be a couple different audiences for this post – those who are interested in content related to Freedom to Read Week and those who’ve seen the writing I’ve done as Social Media Director for one of the candidates in the […]
“Weir With Meili” #skndpldr
More thoughts to come I’m sure… But for now, just a shot of two happy, positive, unified politicians. Great to see!
A Tale of Two #skndpldr MLA’s
I’m not going to editorialize too much in this post. But I will say that I found it very revealing to see how the two MLA’s in the #skndpldr race framed their responses to the announcement of a joint Meili-Weir press conference tomorrow morning. Although many (including myself on occasion) have equated Trent and Cam […]
@ryanMeili Monday – What Role, If Any, Does Family Play in the #skndpldr Race?
I hope everyone had a Happy Family Day (as brought to you by the Sask NDP in 2007…although to be fair, the original and longest-standing Family Day in Canada was brought in by those pro-family, and apparently anti-business, Conservatives in Alberta.) So what other topic is there to discuss today except what impact the candidates’ […]
Saturday Snap – An Updated #skndpldr Chart of @ryanmeili Fundraising & Social Media Success
With the release of the January financials on Friday, I need to update the chart I posted on Thursday to create a snapshot of a different kind than I usually post. Ryan Meili’s team is consistently proving in this Leadership Race that they can provide exactly what the NDP needs at this point in time […]
10 Reasons I’m Supporting @ryanMeili for #skndpldr – #1 – He’s The Best Choice. Period.
In 2009, when I did a list of the 10 Reasons I was supporting Ryan Meili, my #1 was “His Potential as a Transformative Leader for the Province“. I briefly considered making that my #1 choice again as I still firmly believe that Ryan, not only has that potential but is three years further along […]
10 Reasons I’m Supporting @ryanMeili for #skndpldr – #2 – He’s Proved The Doubters Wrong
(Image From Alice Funke, Pundits Guide) There are probably still people who think that Ryan’s 2009 run was a fluke. Sure, he came out of nowhere to finish second to one of the most experienced politicians of the last 30 years while beating out a sitting MLA and a former party President. But really, they […]
10 Reasons I’m Supporting @ryanMeili for #skndpldr – #3 – That Positive Thing
September 2012 – Self-Selecting Infotainment CTV News Poll February 2013 – Scientific Phone Poll by Non-Partisan Praxis Analytics Waaaaay back in September, right after all four candidates had officially declared, CTV in Regina and Saskatoon made the subject of their nightly online poll “Who would you like to see lead the Sask NDP?” Right after […]
10 Reasons I’m Supporting @ryanMeili for #skndpldr – #4 – He Turns It Up To 10!
If you had $900,000 and someone offered to give you another hundred grand for free so you had a cool million, would you take it? Of course – I think anyone would agree that gaining something that costs you nothing but which adds incredible value to what you already have is a great deal. That’s […]
