Congrats to Ryan Meili on winning the SK NDP nomination to be the candidate for Saskatoon-Meewasin last night. Here’s a video I made seven (!) years ago when he was running in a different race… “Canadian Skye” – Spirit of the West
Ryan Meili, a guy you might have heard of on this blog once or twice before, is running to become the Saskatchewan NDP’s candidate for the Saskatoon-Meewasin riding in an upcoming by-election. The nomination meeting is next Monday night. If you live in the constituency and think that Saskatchewan’s heading in the wrong direction under Brad Wall […]

That let us hear the outside speakers and although this angle doesn’t show it, the kids also loved seeing […]
There’s lots of possibilities but these folks win by having a yard sale!
