Anyone who denies that Saskatchewan is a hotbed of politics does not know this province. I know of NO other province where politics (of all stripes) is practiced with more passion, feelings and intensity then in this place. Personally, I wouldn't have it any other way. I was raised in a home where my mom and dad went and voted EVERY election and cancelled each others vote out EVERY election. Sometimes they didn't talk to each other much for a day or two around election time.
Kate, are you planning to attend the Saskblog's BBQ in Saskatoon?
It's great that Saskatchewan is heavily represented in the Canadian blogosphere. I hope to discover a few more Saskatchewan bloggers in the coming weeks and invite them to join Lance's aggregator and to attend the Saskatoon party.
I grew up arguing politics with my dad, around the kitchen table in small town Saskatchewan. Some of the time I wasn't really sure what I was talking about, but that never stopped me from arguing.:-)
Saskatchewan are my roots, but also my heart and soul.
If only I could make a living in small town Saskatchewan, I'd consider moving back.
Why this blog? Until this moment
I have been forced
to listen while media
and politicians alike
have told me
"what Canadians think".
In all that time they
never once asked.
This is just the voice
of an ordinary Canadian
yelling back at the radio -
"You don't speak for me."

I can't answer or use every
tip, but all are
appreciated!

More stubble jumpers, binder pilots, flatlanders and gopher hunters should bring some levity to the blogosphere.
...and some decent home brew too!
