This is a very cool poster that Ryan Meili’s team created during his 2013 leadership run. The design may be retro but the message is more timely than ever as Saskatchewan and the entire world try to figure out the best way forward in the midst of a worldwide pandemic. I don’t know about you […]

Music Monday – “Well, the nobles said to the people, ‘You better close your public schools/Until the events of death has ending, you better close your churches too.'”

Jack White absolutely kicked ass on SNL this weekend as a last-minute, emergency fill-in guest.
