If you’re looking for a clean, concise and relevant blog for your Canadian political news, then Taylor’s blog is a great choice. Not only does it include very clear statistics (accompanied by lovely colored graphs, which are always a plus in my mind) and deal with many primary documents. This is not a spin zone or one overtaken by a heavy ideology. It is essentially information on topics that the popular media often do not bother to cover (gun laws, MP lists, and campaign funds), but are none the less important to provide to the public at large. It is not overtaken by jargon or specifically aimed at a group of people, but instead decipherable to most.
It differs in many ways from the Reluctant Independent, but it has many ties to it as well. One of which being that many of the news stories brought up here, on this blog, are derived from stories drug up on Taylor’s. So although he isn’t hilarious or at least intentionally so, his ideas are used by comedians, pundits and bloggers alike to create a quirky analysis.
