Dec 05 In defense of Canadian politics

As some of you may know, there's been a lot of political drama in Canada over the last couple of weeks.  Back in our election in October, no single political party won enough seats to form a majority government.  This was the third consecutive election in which this has happened, due to the fact that we now have four major political parties to choose from (five in Quebec).  Truth be told, if the Liberal party can manage to get its act together before the next election, we are likely to continue this new tradition for the forseeable future.

Check These Out

  • ★★★★★Grace — by Jeff Buckley
    I can't believe I missed this album for so long.  It's awesome.  Shades of Led Zeppelin and Bryan Ferry, but is still very much its own thing.  I love the soft, understated guitar work, and Jeff Buckley's voice is powerful and fierce.  It has instantly become a favourite.
  • In honour of the day . . .
  • ★★★★★Day — by Ryuichi Sakamoto
    Lovely piece in the Ambient 4: On Land vein — but in a sunny, airy place.
