David Staples looks at the young Stephen Harper who left home in search of…

Last night I was sent a link to an article in the Winipeg Free Press about Bob Rae calling out Liberal cliques, Liberal navel gazing, and turf wars. The Globe and Mail pipes in as well. I couldn’t agree more. Mr. Rae has signaled that he wants C…

The Internet isn’t exactly a new thing. Okay, maybe in terms of geologic time it’s a pretty recent development, but most of us have been using the interwebs for awhile now. With that being said, when you’re looking at the websites of new developments, …

Why does Paul Dewar want Alberta and Saskatchewan to stop doing what’s making them rich?

An incredible edible downtown Edmonton event! Congrats to Sharon and Mack! Make it Happen. That has been my mantra, and byline under my name in my e-mail since 1992.

Word came down this week that the LFL is planning to launch a six team Canadian league in 2012, which will include a franchise right here in the City of Cha…

Regina has no curb-side recycling program in place. Residents can pay $93/yr for a private recycler to pick up by-weekly. Hi Louis [Browne], I hope you had a good Summer. Assuming Regina makes 1/4 as much waste as Edmonton, we should get $2,000,000 to employ people who sort/sell trash at our landfill. I’ve been realizing [...]

Happy Monday!

… or at least on my way out of Edmonton… Arrived late the other night for a day full of meetings yesterday… and leaving 36 hours later. I don’t mind these quick biz trips as long as they are worthwhile (i.e., I accomplish what I came to accomplish) and that one accepts the fact that [...]
