James Bow has an interesting piece up about the Canadian political blogosphere, inspired by the love, peace and grease of last Friday's blogstravaganza.
I feel that the Canadian political blogosphere is actually quite special, bucking several trends that we’ve seen develop over the years in the American political blogosphere. Where else would Liberals and Conservatives set aside their differences and work together to organize something that celebrated the spectrum as a whole? And this really is important. I met people on Friday that I agreed with, and I met people on Friday that I disagreed with. I even met one or two people with whom I shared a heated word or two, and yet we were able to smile, shake hands, laugh and talk. Despite how we may lean politically, events such as this remind us that we’re all not that different.
He also has a link to the worst Christmas carol ever, which really needs to be listened to in order to be believed. Really.
