Recently I spent a couple of days in Vermont. Of the seven US states I have visited, Vermont is my favourite. It is mostly rural, the people are friendly and progressive, the land is beautiful, there's so much history, and the food is good too. I've done a considerable amount of research on Vermont, particularly involving its purchases of electricity from Quebec. I met with a former state official about that topic when I was there recently. After the business portion of my day in Burlington was complete, I headed downtown to Church Street, that wonderful pedestrian mall where the Vermont vibe is inescapable. My mission there was to find the campaign headquarters of Senator Bernie Sanders, who is running for the Democratic Presidential nomination. After looking around and asking a couple of people, I managed to find the headquarters on the third floor of an old office building above some stores.

My Bernie for President sign looks great on the wall above my desk at home in Gatineau with my Tom Mulcair NDP sign. The sign in the middle was a great gift from a pair of Conservative friends!
