It provides a forum for debate, where red meets green, feminists take on socialists, socialists take on social democrats, whites hear from aboriginals, activists report from all corners of Canada, trade unionists report from the front lines, campaigns make connections, and the latest books, films, websites, CDs, and videos are radically reviewed.

DetailsConventional political analysis relies on archaic notions of ‘predominance of gravity’ – in other words, in politics the side with the most stuff wins. Electric Politics ® is the modern hypothesis that political ideas carry charges which interact in predictable patterns. ‘Electric’ differentials better explain political outcomes and the structure of the political landscape. What people think matters much more than is generally understood.
This is my idiosyncratic political commentary site that includes social commentary, religious commentary, arts commentary, and whatever else I find interesting. Also news links and occasional original reporting. The EP podcast format is mainly — though not exclusively — informal conversations with interesting people, without any fixed time limits. Think of it as a miniature, alternative (improved) NPR.
