I would like to acknowledge the passing of former Progressive Blogger affiliate Fern Hill. Her former blog affiliate on here would be Birth Pangs – you can still find some of her old posts that we archived. It shows the titles and a summary.. but it won’t take you to

Please welcome our new blog affiliate – Northern Currents – run by Josh.It’s been awhile since I’ve had the pleasure of doing this, as blogs have waned in social media popularity since their heyday a decade / 15 years ago. Still, some of us are still around, and we welcome

Hi folks: Iv’e been away and absorbed with personal matters the past 2-3 days and did not notice until I checked my email now (and saw the last 2-3 pages of the last 2-3 days) that 1 affiliate of Progressive Bloggers was mass posting and virtually crowding out every other

Continue readingApologies for being away a week (or 2)
As you might have seen the past 10 days – 2 weeks , our site was not updating blogposts from our affiliates’ feeds. Basically, the database went screwy… we suspect the server was compromised, and out of an abundance of caution we were working to rebuild and restore, ensuring none

I wanted to post this to our frontpage. Alheli Picazo has been a blogging affiliate of ours for a fair # of years, though she has gone in fits and spurts.. and this is partially due to her health issues she has suffered. Those have come to a head, as

I’d like to welcome back an old blog affiliate of mine: “Woman At Mile 0”. It’s been 2007 since there was a blogpost on here as she stepped away from blogging, but her daughter, Chantelle Halvorson, has re-started the blog.. so please give her a read and your support.

I was sad to see this obituary. The obituary will name her as being the younger sister of Peter Kent and Arthur Kent – well known Canadian personalities, but I’ll always remember her as “Skdadl” who was a devout NDP blogger writing at the group blog and Progressive Blogger affiliate

John posted this in our Progressive Bloggers group at Facebook, so I’ve taken the liberty to cut and paste it to here: On July 1st as I was leaving Wascana Park by bike, I had a sudden cardiac arrest. Someone nearby called 911, and police and soon an ambulance got

Eh Types is run by @Andrew Tumilty. Please welcome him aboard.

I thought the best way to say this was quote John’s girlfriend from her facebook page (or rather John’s fb page, where she’s been doing the updates): I would like to give what will be more than likely my last update on John Klein aka Saskboy Facebook page. John made
