Rod Rouge: December 2014
http://rodrouge.blogspot.com/2014_12_01_archive.html
Fantasies about fiscal responsibility and social justice in Manitoba. Friday, 12 December 2014. Frozen MB Students Rank Behind? Last year, it was the coldest fricken' winter, like. ever. Now, when you live in Victoria, or Denver, or even Toronto, the 'worst winter ever' is not such a life-and-death matter. Welcome to the Winnipeg School Division (WSD), where the coldest winter temperatures ever can maim you, fast, even kill you quicker than any other mid-size city on earth. Even the image hurts, badly.

Rod Rouge: Yawn. OK, enough napping for Marty.
http://rodrouge.blogspot.com/2013/10/yawn-ok-enough-napping-for-marty.html
Fantasies about fiscal responsibility and social justice in Manitoba. Thursday, 24 October 2013. Yawn OK, enough napping for Marty. I thought I'd have juicy details from the Marty Gold Vs. case by now. I thought, surely someone will do something this year worth writing about. So far, not so much. At least not that I know (which is not a definitive standard, of course.). So, I'll wake up the blog, put Marty's case on 'stand by.' mode, and get back to writing.

Rod Rouge: January 2013

Fantasies about fiscal responsibility and social justice in Manitoba. Wednesday, 2 January 2013. 8216;Working Together’ on Marty Gold. We are well trained in the art of working as a team. Pluralistic nations require teamwork to build. We have team-building education through necessity in Canada. We can and should work together to do great things. We should not work together to do bad things. One guy, all alone. 8220;Ummm… run”, I replied to myself. Run, hide, change your name, get a new face, don’t ...

Rod Rouge: March 2012
http://rodrouge.blogspot.com/2012_03_01_archive.html
Fantasies about fiscal responsibility and social justice in Manitoba. Thursday, 1 March 2012. Man U' Breaking News: Rod Rouge is Inconsistent (or not.). It occurred to me that, when the shoes are a-dropping and the Who-skins a-warbling, I get a little sidetracked. Due (mainly) to this, I seem full of baloney on past promises made, and prescriptions that seem to modify over time. Spurs me to address three things quickly (my fragile self-image, this is partly a self-care exercise.). 3 Promised list of fact...

Rod Rouge: NDP Supports Preferential Ballot... (for themselves)

Fantasies about fiscal responsibility and social justice in Manitoba. Wednesday, 30 October 2013. NDP Supports Preferential Ballot. (for themselves). Recall the Premier, in the last election, said that the preferential ballot system was too complicated for Manitobans. Then recall Ms. Mary Agnes Welch, intrepid Freep reporter, writing:. Better way to vote. THE provincial NDP hopes a better way to vote will avoid the chaos that reigned in the Maples during the 2009 leadership race. Q2: Is it only easier if...

Fantasies about fiscal responsibility and social justice in Manitoba. Thursday, 30 January 2014. Charles Adler Loves Rana? Ok, so maybe the headline looked misleadingly romantic, sorry. But I love the catchy headlines, right? Charles Adler, and certain other (cough* Winnipeg Sun staff. cough*) journalists have been lovin' them some Rana lately. Q: Cute, or creepy? How can Chuck spew the kind of bullshit about the party's 'increase under Rana's leadership' that he did yesterday? Answer: guided missile aim...

Rod Rouge: December 2013
http://rodrouge.blogspot.com/2013_12_01_archive.html
Fantasies about fiscal responsibility and social justice in Manitoba. Monday, 2 December 2013. Happy Holidays. Infidel! I am, more than anything else (MB politically,) dedicated to seeing the Kings and Queens of Orange supplanted by another worthy Government-in-waiting. They have wandered into absolute power territory, with the expected results. Has to be stopped, right? For our children's sake, etc. You know. But oh bother. Brian, honestly, how could we share a tent after this? I am not. Barely care.

Rod Rouge: Union Support in Civic Elections
http://rodrouge.blogspot.com/2014/09/union-support-in-civic-elections.html
Fantasies about fiscal responsibility and social justice in Manitoba. Sunday, 21 September 2014. Union Support in Civic Elections. Sitting quietly, drumming my fingers, watching for signs that folks 'get' the importance of the Union nod in Winnipeg's Civic politics.). Hey, hi. Miss me? So, as usual, the content on this page is my anonymous opinion only. Unions are similar in that way. They serve only those who pay them. Right? In Winnipeg, the collective political will of the various Unions gets legs thr...

Fantasies about fiscal responsibility and social justice in Manitoba. Wednesday, 25 July 2012. The NRC Goes to War: Part 1, the Gathering Storm. The National Research Council of Canada (NRC) is going to war… or at least they are trending that way. Massive job losses at the NRC have prompted journalists across the country to point to a ‘brain drain’ in Canada. “Here go the science-less Conservatives wiping out the intelligencia (sp? Scary stuff, yes? I believe them. You should, too. No outright talk of wa...
