@ryanMeili Monday – One Last #skndpldr Stop? Unity, Saskatchewan

Hard to believe it’s less than a week until the Leadership Convention! I was chatting with someone over the weekend about how the party might build unity once the race is over, no matter who wins. He made a pretty profound observation: It has nothing to do with how “positive” you were or how aggressive […]

@ryanMeili Monday – Peeking Under The Troll Bridge #skndpldr

My colleague on the Meili 2.0 Team, Aaron Genest, has written a blog post about the level of animosity that he’s observed in the Sask NDP Leadership race so far. The topic of how we talk to (and about) each other has been on my thoughts as well for a variety of different reasons – […]

Meili Monday – A Political Disclaimer #skndpldr

I usually do a “Music Monday” post at the start of the week. But since the SK NDP Leadership has just started, I thought it might be fun (and alliterative!) to give over a few of my Mondays in the coming weeks and months to some thoughts on the race, Ryan Meili’s campaign and other […]

Social Media Showdown – #SKNDPLDR Edition

During the last Sask NDP leadership race, I spent a lot of time analysing the social media aspects of each candidate’s campaign. As we get another leadership race underway, the social media landscape has changed and grown, both in terms of services available and also the reach of sites like Facebook, Twitter and numerous other […]

Mo Money, Mo Kittens

In the 2009 and 2013 Sask NDP leadership races, I was *very* opinionated and that often left me at cross-purposes, as an active member of Ryan’s team but also as a  blogger/Facebooker/Tweeter with my own thoughts, opinions and ego who didn’t mind getting into discussions and sharing my observations – respectful, heated or otherwise – […]

What Is Politics About? (and Two Things I Want From The Sask NDP’s New Leader)

A couple weeks back, I attended the Federal NDP’s full day workshop on their “Prairie Initiative“.  This is an effort by the federal party to lay the groundwork for a similar breakthrough on the Prairies to the one they had in Quebec during the last election. The day was filled with speakers, presentations and break-out […]
