The idea for this came from a couple of us discussing our observations of voter participation in Saskatchewan, and the rest of the country. Yes, some of us actually do this for fun.
As the conversation rolled around and we debated what we considered in the hits and misses in the past two major election campaigns - the 2008 US Presidential Election and the 2011 Canadian General Election - we eventually arrived at a single conclusion: we should build something that is non-partisan and puts all the information 'unspun' in one place. Let's create a place where political and non-political people alike, can quite simply and easily judge for themselves.
New pages will be rolling out over the next few weeks to point you directly to information you may want to find. Direct links to social media, information rounded up and presented by constituency, and links to other things like the list uploaded to today named: Other Governments and Organizations.
As we meander through the last few weeks of summer - the time before our airways become jammed with election spin - we trust you will find some interesting and helpful pages here you will be want to come back to again and again.
