Steve Thinks About Stuff

There's an old expression that the personal is political. I haven't heard that expression used for some time, and too many people I meet seem not to care about politics, while many of the rest seem to care about nothing else. Can a balance be struck? And can one discuss serious issues without taking oneself too seriously?

A highly placed Liberal researcher taps into the awesome power of my head. For obvious reasons of national security, he cannot be identified as Michael Gendron.

A Bit About Me

Steve Marsh: Ottawa, ON, Canada; Born in Saskatoon, SK, raised in Syracuse, NY and lived most of my adult life in Toronto, ON, before moving to Ottawa to work in politics. If I'm not careful, my obituary will read, "Steve Marsh, of no fixed address..." I've lived too long to think that anything I say or do will change anything, but not long enough to stop trying. I'm far more competitive than I'd like to admit, and my favourite place to to be is in the midst of chaos, where I just have to figure out how to make it work. I'm a political liberal, both lower and upper-case, an irreverent sentimentalist and a lapsed Unitarian. What more do you want to know?
