Rabble Rabble

Red Cloak doesn't wear her politics on her sleeve but she does like a good story.

According to the welcome page of rabble.ca, the non-profit organization "was built on the efforts of progressive journalists, writers, artists and activists across the country. We have covered events and issues in ways you'd be hard pressed to find anywhere else ever since.

rabble.ca has also moved beyond the written word to the world of podcasting through the rabble podcast network (rpn). The rpn is a growing collection of Canadian podcasts which offer an alternative take on politics, entertainment, society, stories, community and life in general. "
