I won’t reproduce the post here. But see my updated Saskatchewan Election Links for all the information you’ll need for tomorrow’s provincial election.

As of today, Oct 19, 2011, I am Dr. Rawlings. Who wants a prescription? (Disclaimer: not that kind of doctor.) On a serious note, though, this is more a relief than cause for celebration. 6 months of additional revisions post-defense is ridiculous.

For those who can’t get enough coverage of Saskatchewan’s provincial election, here’s a quick set of links to keep an eye on (to be filled out and updated as the campaign progresses).CBC has set up a dedicated election page, while Leftdog has joined Jo…

Gone a-conferencing until next Friday, with limited posting in the meantime. But that’s fine, since there are plenty of provincial elections which should keep you busy in the interim.

Have a work-related project to get done this week, then out of the country next week. Hopefully, by the time I’m back, the Ontario Libs and Greens will have released their platforms. I’ve got the NDP and PC platforms and am hoping to do a complete seri…

Real life intrudes this week. Next week: something on governance. Been thinking about what might guide Senate reform and all that good stuff.

Off to a couple of undisclosed locations for the next week, with little to no blogging in the meantime. But let’s note one point worth watching as Parliament reconvenes.While I don’t think there’s much room for dispute that the Cons have tried to move …

Sorry. Dissertation editing is kicking my ass right now. Nothing major in terms of changes, but I really have to tighten up some portions of the argument and it’s draining most of my energy. Next week for sure, though.
