The Vancouver Scrum

On the move!

Agh! You’re still here? My new site and weblog, ianking.ca is now up and running; new posts are building up over there, never to be mirrored here. Go! What are you waiting for? All the stuff worth keeping has been migrated over to the new server, and I don’t anticipate making any more posts here.

Bloggers and webmasters: Update your links! Simply replace vancouverscrum.blogspot.com with www.ianking.ca in your blogrolls or bookmarks to point to the new site. Old posts will remain on this server for as long as the people at Blogger/Google allow them to remain; unfortunately, I’m not going to bother to come up with any way of converting permalinks on this blog to their corresponding posts on the new site. Yes, I plead laziness. I also realize the irony of switching away from Blogger just it starts to add features that the demanding blog nerds insist upon.

Thanks for reading and linking, and see you over at ianking.ca!

COPE argues for leniency in voting eligibility

The civic party can expect a ruling today on whether or not "statutory declarations" will be enough for voters without proper identification to register and cast their ballots in Satuday's civic election.

Currently, the rules state that voters who are not on the electors' list must show two pieces of identification in order to register to vote on election day. COPE's argument is that this is discriminatory against the poor and those with no fixed address.

Of course, those who fit into the above categories will, of course, be much more likely to vote for COPE...
