Three years ago on January 11, 2021, I made a presentation as a delegation to Cochrane’s Town Council objecting to the town’s participation in and support for the Calgary Metropolitan Region Board (CMRB), and with that, Dog With A Bone was born! The name came about from my good friend Barry’s observation that I tenaciously approach issues ‘like a dog with a bone’.
I subsequently created a website, and my first blog post was based upon that January 2021 presentation to Cochrane’s Town Council. The number of blog posts have since grown to 55 in total over the last 3 years, an average of about 3 posts every two months.
For this 3rd anniversary, I have decided to provide a listing of the 55 posts along with their links for easy access.
