Well folks, it's live on Amazon.
It will take a few weeks to show up on other platforms.
I'll do some more plugging and thanking in the coming weeks but for now, it lives!!

Sure, get rich off more than three centuries of Indigenous lands, labour & knowledge, set the stage for enormous land loss, & then sell what’s left to whoever has the biggest paper bag full of money? It’s a tawdry end to a history that means so much to this place & so little to the HBC.

Do you curl at the Granite Curling Club, or know someone who does?

Contact me if you'd like to sign the Granite members' letter IN SUPPORT of the proposed affordable housing development on the west side. People Over Parking!

For the love of tenants, join us on February 12th to help stop rent hikes!

The Right to Housing coalition is launching a campaign urging the province to keep rents affordable. Plus, a new report on rent hikes in West Broadway will be released! #mbpoli

This is totally shocking. There are so many gems Susan Alcorn leaves us with. Most notable for me is her playing with The Mary Halvorson Octet - what a perfect compliment to Halvorson's guitar! The treasures here are endless. She'll be missed.

As a member of The Granite, I'm pretty disappointed to see how our board is responding to this. As has been the case with The Beer Can, we should be seeing this as an exciting opportunity rather than an existential crisis. This is embarrassing. Also, way to go @binkypinder.bsky.social!
