Week in Review
October 21 2025
Hi all,
Apologies for the delay in getting this out—I’m playing catch-up this week! I was in Regina for the Prairie Rising Forum, and I underestimated the time it takes to drive, facilitate the event, and get back to kids’ activities. Once you’re behind, getting back on track is no small feat!
A huge shoutout to Steph and Michelle for having me MC the forum—it was a great experience!
From left to right: Wayne Peters, Dom Lucyk, Jim Sinclair, Brett Oland, Zack Schmidt, Michelle, Steph, Myself, Tom Marazzo, Bryce Wade and Mitch Sylvester. Missing: Martin Armstrong, Tajana Truth Seeker, Chris Barber, Tamara Lich and Matt Ehret who all virtually spoke at the forum.
To all you Mashup fans this was also a highlight of my trip.
