A couple nice touches – how the words of the three endorsers blend into one and also that shot near the end of the two babies “talking”.
So we’re not quite a week into the four-person race but I thought it might be interesting to assess the one thing that each campaign has done really well in my view. Cam – on the day he announced, he also launched a site that was comprehensive and fully formed in terms of policy and […]
Murray Mandryk’s most recent column characterized the various candidate launches as a chance for reach to engage in an animalistic display of strength and virility. Since we’re having fun with analogies, I thought I’d do Mandryk one better by coming up with analogies for, not only the launches, but each of the candidates as well! […]
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 […]

Coincidentally today, the race for the leadership of the Saskatchewan NDP kicked off. I’ve written before about the parallels I’ve seen between Barack Obama and Ryan Meili, one of […]
Murray Mandryk of the Leader Post has some thoughts on the unofficial jockeying for position that’s happening behind-the-scenes as potential candidates position themselves for a run at the leadership of the Saskatchewan NDP. (I think candidates can officially begin announcing next month maybe?) Based on Mandryk’s article, here are the presumed candidates (alphabetically) with what […]
