Siksay Says Goodbye to Parliament + Thoughts From the Campaign Trail + What this Election Means to the Queer Community

I have three pieces in the April issue of Outlooks - an interview with Bill Siksay as he retires from his political career, a panel with the party leaders for a change, and an editorial about what is at stake if the Conservatives form another government. The interview was drawn from the same long interview I did with Siksay for Xtra (I went into said interview intending different different questions for each outlet, but there was a bit of bleed between them). The panel was a bit of fun since I don't normally get to talk to the leaders, and true to form, Harper's team didn't respond. Good thing we planned for that in the layout. As for the editorial, it was pretty difficult to write, and I knew I was going to get a lot of pushback from the community (many members of whom have a great deal of loyalty to the NDP), but there were points that needed to be made.

The interview is on page 14 of the print edition, the panel on page 15, and the editorial on page 22 (and as you can see, both the panel and editorial are available online).
