WHO IN THEIR RIGHT MIND would want to be a politician these days?

Donna is on ‘leave’ and I’m filling in with a progress report on our ‘ask’ for a TWO PEOPLE TALKING podcast.
I’m disappointed in you.
Yes, you.
I’ve been watching the blog’s analytics. And I know you’ve seen the ‘ask’.
What gives, eh? Sheesh.
The pitch (condensed):
WILL YOU SUBSCRIBE to a digital stream (with a monthly fee of no less than five bucks)?
Why five dollars? With 100 subscribers, it’s the minimum cost to professionally produce & distribute an audio podcast with enriched content on a Substack website.
Donna’s National Post weekend column is widely read across the country. And it’s been influential in other countries, as well. Politicians are paying attention. We know they read Donna.
And it’s time to up the game.
I’ll cut to the chase:
In a Liberal minority parliament, once again cats hold the balance of power.
WHAT DOG do you want to gamble 5 bucks on in an influential podcast race?
I’m not kidding.
PICK YOUR DOG & comment (cats prefer you didn’t):



It’s still the dog days of summer (that’s not a negative thing). The cat’s meow isn’t what we have in mind for September.
Speak your mind on the ‘petition’ below.

BEYOND POLARITY is the consensus opinion of the writers Donna Kennedy-Glans & Don Hill.

Yes I will subscribe, tell me how
Get a dog in the race. We’ll tell you the result just after Labour Day (whether it’s a go for a substack podcast or…meow).
I think I already responded indicating I would subscribe!
But you didn’t make a bet on a dog.
I am a cat.
That doesn’t make you a bad person.
