Because what's the "strategy" of waiting any longer to put this month's newsletter together if Advanced Voting has already ended and the las
The ‘MONTHLY EH’ for April 2025 was sent out to subscribed inboxes this morning — and if you think you might also like to check out the latest collection of “Hi! Here’s Five Things For Your Consideration”, you can do exactly that OVER HERE.
I shared some subjective thoughts on “strategic” voting whilst living in mountown riding far away from where any Ottawa pollsters do any act
In my defense, there has been a whole bunch of seedy happenings going on lately.
The ‘MONTHLY EH’ for March 2025 was sent out to subscribed inboxes this morning — and if you think you might also like to check out the latest collection of “Hi! Here’s Five Things For Your Consideration”, you can do exactly that OVER HERE.
To be fair… is February even a real month?
I mean… 28 days? Total? When everybody else is doing 30 days, sometimes 31?!
Anyways… I got too busy this so-called “month” of February with some other stuff, so I’m not gonna get a newsletter sent out before February becomes March — but the other stuff I got busy with was more important and/or interesting than my desire to maintain my diy newsletter’s recent monthly re-ambitions.
Also… February?
In this economy?!
I’d rather March. . . . . . PS - a monthly ‘mountown signals’ newsletter will return once we’re all back into a proper month with a proper amount of days — in the meantime please feel free to peruse and/or subscribe at: MOUNTOWN.SUBSTACK.COM
PPS - also go follow the KEGG.CA community garden for some upcoming seedy fun this growing season — and there will be some seedy announcements once we're properly into March… because February, amirite?

The 'MONTHLY EH' for January 2025 was sent out to subscribed inboxes on the morning of Jan 31st — and if you think you might also like to check out my attempt at talking about the importance of coming from a place of groundedness (especially in a world where so many seem to keep getting pulled over to a polarizing position of groundlessness), you can do exactly that OVER HERE.
It's just a quick end-of-year "eh?!" from me to you (I promise, it's short-ish)
The latest MONTHLY EH?! mailout for December 2024 was sent out to subscribed inboxes on the last day of the year… and now it is available for anyone to read on whatever day of whatever year it is now, whether one is freely subscribed or not, OVER HERE (among other things, I mention how I am going to be putting all of my 95EH-ing on indefinite pause until AT LEAST the end of February 2025) .
Also… HAPPY NEW YEAR 🎊
Here's a "Happy Holidays!" message from a white-haired old man that feels more important to hear right now than whatever that Santa guy keeps going on about every December (we get it "Ho! Ho! Ho!"… but what does that have to do with the extreme income inequality tearing our society apart?) 🎅
And, on that note, I am also going to be taking a bit of a 'holiday break' with 95EH… before I probably take an even longer 'trying to figure out what I'm doing with all this stuff' break to kick of 2025 ('tis the season for that kind of humming & hawing after all) 🎊
Cheers to another spin around the sun 🍻
"Management of the Columbia River Basin currently prioritizes power production and flood control, largely leaving biodiversity and ecosystems as an after-thought. However, Canada and the U.S are now renegotiating the international treaty that shapes reservoir and river management in the B.C. portion of the Basin. Now is the time to make changes for the future of the Basin" — READ MORE OVER HERE

Rentals will be available at the ticket kiosk, and hot beverages will be available in the lodge by donation." - Kimberley Nordic Club

"British Columbians expect us to work collaboratively to deliver on the most important issues people are facing. I’m pleased to share that the government and BC Greens have reached an agreement to work together on a specific set of shared priorities:
Strengthening health care, building affordable housing, creating livable communities and growing a strong sustainable economy.
We are two distinct parties with two distinct identities, and we won’t always agree. We also have many shared values. The agreement lays out specific areas of action we will work together to achieve."
The BC NDP officially announced that they will be attempting to work together collaboratively with the BC Greens on the basis of recognizing where they have shared values (which should be the norm if you ask me, BUT, hey… let's take positive progressive progress wherever/whenever we see it, eh — AND — if you were following along to the Mountown Substack during #LocalAreaElectionSeason, this outcome was the best most realistic outcome that I was hoping for in the post-BC-election newsletter I sent out on October 23rd, so I feel good about how this is playing out so far, especially in comparison to how the US presidential election played out).
Read the full "official" NDP statement OVER HERE and also keep in mind that this statement comes with a link to an 8-page document that goes into further 'lawyer speak' details & specifics (for those who like looking through the fine print).
"In December 2023, it was announced that the City of Kimberley would build a new wastewater treatment plant (WWTP) after confirmation of combined investment commitments of more than $90.6 million from federal, provincial, and municipal governments. Following a comprehensive review of the original proposed design, the City is announcing key updates to the project including modifications to the design, treatment process, and location of the plant. These changes are critical to help ensure the project remains within budget and meets the City’s growing needs for wastewater management." - City of Kimberley (read more OVER HERE)
Hi everyone,Thank you for visiting my fundraising page! Recently I signed up to host a Virtual Food Drive in support of Food Banks BC.
Back in 'The Marysville McDonalds Days' (Spring/Summer 2023), the 95EH Facebook page got banned from The Kimberley Connection FB group for sharing a post about the last call to get public feedback heard.
That post (and all the comments it generated) was deleted and the 95EH FB page was banned from the group.
Fast forward to Winter 2024 and my personal FB account was still a member of The Kimberley Connection — which means, every now & again, a post would come across my feed that involved someone complaining about the biased moderation that happens on another #KimberleyBC FB group (usually after someone got banned from that group or their post/comment was deleted).
And the thing about these posts is they often turn into a "good thing the moderation isn't biased & hypocritical in this group!" bonding moment in the comments (as there are lots of people who have been banned from all kinds of moderated groups for all sorts of "reasons"). However, being someone who has been banned from 'The KC FB Group' for biased & hypocritical reasons, I figured I would try to casually bring up this fact while also attempting to make a broader point that applied to the OP's original rant.
This got a moderator to reply. We exchanged questions/thoughts. And now my personal Facebook account is also banned from the Kimberley Connection (along with any other pages I have created).
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Since I kicked myself for not taking screenshots the first time around… this time around I grabbed some evidence of the fairly civil interactions that can get one multi-banned from a local so-called "freedom of speech" FB group.
And I thought I'd share my experience in a "flick thru the pics to get the gist" way for the local Metaverse (ie. on Facebook + on Instagram) because the example shown here is not unique (which is why I've purposely hidden people's names) — AND — I think the bias being exercised here is some good 'food for thought' for all the people out there doing a lot of venting about the existence of "anonymous" posts & people not "putting their name" behind their words/actions online.

Capitalism is driving the destruction of our planet. We have to think outside – and against – the framework of our current political system
"Global ecosystem breakdown and soaring temperatures require us to think outside – and against – the framework of our current political system. If we want the children of today to have a future on this planet, we cannot keep obediently colouring inside the lines." - Sally Rooney
