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 […]

Saturday Snap – Random Thoughts From the Weyburn #skndpldr Debate
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 […]
Ten Reasons I’m Supporting @ryanmeili for #skndpldr (Recapping My 2009 List)
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 […]
Five Topics
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 […]
@RyanMeili Monday – Putting the “Fun” Back in Beard. Or something like that. #skndpldr
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 […]
@ryanMeili Monday – The Most Important Endorsement? #skndpldr
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 […]
Celebrating Some @ryanMeili #skndpldr Firsts on the First Day of 2013
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 […]
It’s A Girl!
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 […]
Friday Fun Link – #yqr Self-Guided Twinkle Tour
The Centre of the Arts is running a “12 Tickets of Christmas” series on FB for free concert tickets each day. The other day they asked people to submit the location of the best Christmas lights they’d seen in Regina to enter that day’s draw. Later that day, I also came across this on Twitter – […]
@ryanMeili Monday – Who’s Winning The #skndpldr $$$ Race With Individual Support Only?
At the start of the #skndpldr race, there was a bit of attention when one candidate (I think it was Erin Weir?) proposed that if elected leader, he would work to ban corporate and union donations from the political process (although also declining to follow this guideline for the Sask NDP leadership race pointing out […]
