… and bloggers like me are pretty bummed out over it.
MK Braaten had a special gift for putting a good financial spin on subjects. His work in clarifying the Income Trust scandal for Canadians was just great. His answers to “tax”ing questions was much appreciated and I urge Blogging Tories all over to drop by his site and send thanks (or beg him to blog on)
Thanks Matt. You will be missed by many of us who enjoyed dropping by to read your words.
Best of luck to you.
ADDENDUM: North American Patriot is also packing it up. This is truly a sad day. Two of the bloggers I enjoy(ed) reading most have called it quits. I want to point out WonderWoman (North American Patriot) was one of the most outspoken, strong voiced, (not to mention hot) blogging tories out there. I had the pleasure of being part of a small crew with her that boycotted Tim Hortons for over 30 days until they agreed to open a Tim Horton’s at the Kandahar airport for our boys in Afghanistan.
She will also truly be missed by many bloggers on the right side of both center and issues.
Keep fighting the Legion of Doom in your own way WW. Best of luck to you too.

When the war is won, the last battle is over, it becomes time for others to mop up.
We have a government that Canadians can be proud of.
Not much more to say.
I’m gonna wrap up mine too, soon (not that I’m in their class) to move on to other challenges.

I’d just like to say how much I enjoy the title of this site. That’s pretty much it! 🙂
Both bloggers will be missed intensely!

Meh. Matt is just going through the same thing many bloggers experience – the need to take a ‘blogabout’ or break from blogging.
Most bloggers cite work-related time pressures as a reason for their inability or lack of interest in processing and thinking about issues in a way that is articulate and makes sense. It takes time to first process the information and then write about it. Once the time pressures let up, he’ll probably reconsider.
Plus it’s the summer time, the Oilers could go all the way, and it’s easy to understand one’s need to live life away from the blogosphere to gain fresh perspective. The beer on sunlit patios served by hot Edmonton waitresses doesn’t drink itself, you know.
He’ll be back as soon as he smells something rotten in da gubmnt.
And he’s got a shiny new account on my blog, so expect the odd post written by him to appear there.
