If I get a decent sleep one night, I’m not allowed to have one the next. Apparently it’s a new law: no sleeping two nights in a row. So since I’m awake at 5:00 a.m. again, here is the latest round of notes I’ve been collecting in my notebook. *

I think it’s time for a little redneck punching. National Post, don’t try to weasel out of this. Globe & Mail, you made your bed but we have to sleep in it. Sun Media, you shouldn’t shit where you eat. We 61% suffer for your madness, ignorance and beholding to

… is actually pretty good. Sure, its a bit sappy and feels more like a Mitt Romney ad from the 2012 campaign (bringing in his family and so on), but it is a really effective ad highlighting “Tom.” Kudos, NDP. This is the same strategy the Liberals will likely be

Via: KW Protests Greetings, concerned Canadians and global opponents to the Harper Government. We know how ridiculous and scandalous this excuse for a Government of Canada is.

He is the former mayor of D.C. who the government sicced a crack ho on back in the day and dropped the news all over the place. The National Post reports that in 1990 Marion Barry was “…set up by model-turned-FBI informant Rasheeda Moore for what he thought was a romantic

I’ve followed the media aspect of politics for a long time but not necessarily the politics itself. The former is far more telling about the state of a locale than the policies that enhance and hamper the lives of its citizens. Take a look at how the media is handling

TORONTO – Shit From Hell, Canada’s best-loved geriatric punk combo, is entering the studo to record a song to raise funds for the purchase of the “Rob Ford smoking something illicit” video. “If it helps to drive that bumbling oaf from office, we deserve the Nobel Prize for the Arts,”

This post has two parts: the clerk and the lost. The clerk. I had a good night’s sleep and woke up at the leisurely hour of 8:00. We had breakfast at the hotel and packed up, ready to hit the road to Madrid. And wouldn’t you know it, the desk

How large of a solar farm is needed to completely power the United States? The simple answer is that a solar farm 100 miles long and 100 miles wide would be “more than enough to meet the country’s entire energy demand.” The far more interesting answer, however, is that this

Professional cellphone contract negotiators are now haggling for better deals on behalf of Canadians who are either frustrated or unwilling to discuss their cellphone bills, contracts and plans with their wireless providers. If the government allows big telecom to succeed in taking over Canada’s independent wireless assets, even higher cellphone

Regina City Council has voted to proceed with a 30-year public-private partnership (P3) in which a private company would design, build, finance, operate and maintain the city’s new waste water treatment facility. The municipal administration’s rationale has been that, although a P3 will be more expensive than traditional public financing,

From Victoria Day to ‘Victoria and First People’s Day’. How does that sound? Prolific author Margaret Atwood, Green Party leader Elizabeth May, actor Gordon Pinsent and other prominent Canadians are demanding that “Victoria Day” be renamed “Victoria and First Peoples Day”. To honour Aboriginal peoples’ contributions to Canada. The group, which

{The following has been submitted for publication in the Omineca Express and Anahim-Nimpo Messenger–MC} I accept my share of humble pie for not predicting the re- election of the B.C. Liberals on May 17, 2013. While I saw the narrowing gap in the polls as the day of decision approached,
