Back from a four-day weekend in Winnipeg where I was (mostly) unplugged – although I did send out one last membership pitch from the Tim Horton’s in Brandon on Friday afternoon which indicates that I’m either really dedicated or really deluded! I did see a few things as the membership deadline approached that made me […]
Inspired but tired after very fun night out at Ryan Meili’s “A Night To Re-Membership” event at the Artful Dodger. So I’ll just post a quick photo before bed and perhaps add more thoughts later!
There’s less than a week left until the deadline for selling NDP memberships (how did that come up so fast?) I’ve spent the evening spamming reaching out to pretty much any potential NDP member in my Facebook friends list (so I expect to be de-friended by quite a few people by tomorrow!) 😉 This exercise does […]
Killed two birds with one stone today – coming down to Weyburn for the latest #skndpldr debate and also getting to spend the night with Shea’s folks. Shea and I got to work Ryan’s table at the debate and, as usual, I’ve got a lot of random thoughts from the day… – I’ve been to […]
In 2009, I did a series of ten posts listing the reasons I was supporting Ryan Meili for the Leader of the Sask NDP. I’m pretty sure I could come up with ten different and equally viable reasons this time around. In fact, depending on how much time I have, I may very well do […]
Haven’t done one of these “5 Quick Hits” posts in awhile… Hockey I didn’t miss the NHL when it was locked out but I can honestly say that today was the first day I felt like coming home from work, popping open a beer and settling in to watch a game. Luckily that will be […]
I don’t know if Ryan Meili will win the Saskatchewan NDP leadership race. But as one of his supporters told me recently, we’re not not just leading in fundraising, we’re leading in “fun” raising and “friend” raising. And win or lose, that’s the kind of campaign I’m proud to be a part of and the […]
Trent Wotherspoon got the endorsement of a trio Manitoba MLA’s today, Cam Broten posted one from a retired Director of Education and Ryan Meili got what could be described as quasi-endorsements from high-profile NDP MP’s Libby Davies (Deputy Leader of the Opposition, Health Critic) and Niki Ashton (Critic for Women’s Issues) in an e-mail blast to […]
As he did in 2009, Ryan Meili is once again spearheading an extremely innovative leadership campaign that has all kinds of potential to change the way politics are done in Saskatchewan. Here are just a few examples of Meili “Firsts” in the current campaign… First candidate to use a mobile-friendly domain hack for his web […]
A pretty awesome Christmas gift! Shea and I got to find out the sex of our baby at the same time our parents did earlier tonight. During our last ultrasound, we got the tech to put the sex of the baby in a sealed envelope then handed that to a trusted friend along with a […]
