Spec: World to Get Better

By Ryan McGreal
Published November 26, 2008

Thank goodness for this.

Update: for some reason, the Spectator pulled this article, but here is a screen capture:

Screen capture of the Spectator article titled 'World gets better'

The title is "World gets better", and the article reads in full, "World leaders got together today and said things will be fine."

Ryan McGreal, the editor of Raise the Hammer, lives in Hamilton with his family and works as a programmer, writer and consultant. Ryan volunteers with Hamilton Light Rail, a citizen group dedicated to bringing light rail transit to Hamilton. Ryan wrote a city affairs column in Hamilton Magazine, and several of his articles have been published in the Hamilton Spectator. His articles have also been published in The Walrus, HuffPost and Behind the Numbers. He maintains a personal website, has been known to share passing thoughts on Twitter and Facebook, and posts the occasional cat photo on Instagram.

Ha - I guess they removed that article!

I vote down for offensiveness and up for humour. I cast no votes based on my level of agreement.
