I was a guest on Canadaland! Which I have previously blogged about here. As I type this, Canadaland’s patreon is less than $200 a month shy of making it Jesse Brown’s full time job. Can you imagine the next goal of a news organization? I can.

I am in this promo, putting my money where my mouth is. I look like I sort of just rolled out of the woods but HOW MUCH MORE CANADIAN CAN YOU GET
Jesse Brown’s podcast Canadaland is a unique one. How often do we here in Canada get shows that talk boldly and intelligently about our own media, featuring notable personalities within it? I believe that so many of us care about our culture here strongly, that we want our programs to be better, that we want to understand how things work. Canadians are fiercely proud of quality arts and media that we call our own and that has a distinctive national identity. I know because I have been, as a creator, on the receiving end of this generosity, and the open arms of my neighbours. And I am down with sharing that love.
So do me a favour (with a u), and go to Canadaland, and see how good it is. And then you might agree with me, and become a patron.
Excellent little article in Spacing about William Lyon MacKenzie as a growing radical, leading to the 1837 rebellion in Toronto, by Adam Bunch.
whatever you’d call comics that start with the understanding that I’m walking down the street and hear a few seconds of conversation
