Hello to all you lovely lefty pinkos! ; )
I just wanted to keep everyone up-to-date on rabble’s (where else!) coverage of the NDP convention occurring this weekend in Toronto — where party members will choose who will be Canada’s next Official Opposition Leader.
While I can’t be down there myself (I’m moving this weekend), I wanted to pass along some ways to plug into our awesome coverage of the event.
rabble has babble babbling and people covering the event, live from the convention floor!
Follow rabble.ca live blog here.
Keep up with the latest on babble here.
Find all of our latest coverage — including our leadership candidate interviews here.
On Twitter, @rabbleca will be live-tweeting from the floor, so you can follow along that way, too!
Please check out The Cat Reporter blog about the convention (a.k.a., how can that damn puppet be so so damn smart).
I’ll also be updating this Communique when new content appears on rabble.ca (newest at the bottom).

—Thomas Mulcair: An NDP leader who passes the Ralph Klein beer test and Tory fear test
March 25, 2012 | By djclimenhaga
