It’s a holiday, so I almost forgot to blog anything. But some newsworthy things are underfood, err, underfoot. CNET.com was a trustworthy download site for more than a decade, but…
Someone identifying with the Anonymous Internet group may have decided that Saskatoon sounded obscure and cool enough to be participating in Occupy Wall Street, that they deserved a little extra…
This video demonstrates that nothing has been done in more than 25 years to close the tax loopholes that Reagan supposedly wanted to close in 1985. Obama is saying the…
I’m tired but elated this beautiful morning. 53 seats. Pretty exceptional if you ask me when just a few weeks ago people were counting Liberals out. I’ll have more to…
A trifecta of sexism, ignorance and paranoia today: In fairness to Republican hopeful Herman Cain, at least he had the decency to preface his crackpot theory with the caveat of…
We must unite the people now, or the people and democracy both will lose. Not only are partisan loyalties and divisions increasingly irrelevant and out-moded, but divisions along ideological lines…

Ten minutes after the event was supposed to start. Really, really bad sign. I’m hearing that Team Tory could barely get 200 people to come see PC leader Tim Hudak.…
Kind of tells you everything you need to know about Tim Hudak.
Tuesday, when Mr. Hudak was asked if he backed the flyer he responded with a terse “of course.” I was just chatting with a Tory friend. This election, not only…

Can’t help but notice on tonight’s agenda for Collingwood Town Council there are several issues that are being taken behind closed doors. While there’s a couple that would be understandly…
