Science Fiction Minis are harder to find than fantasy ones, and I’ve wanted to see more cool models in the space, so I started looking at what was out there and the big of sci-fi stuff I found was typically either proxies or direct intellectual property rip-offs, so I figured there was a gap in…
As I did with a quasi-Provincial level platform, I wanted to spend some time thinking about what a Federal platform for me would look like. I started this before our last election and have been working on it on and off for a while now. I am sure there is still a ton of learning…
My wife and I are struggling to own a home and have been for some time and I recently saw an article that compares places to live at a $600,000 price point across Canada that made me feel inadequate and frustrated.
