Fresh on the heels of the first ever Notable Awards, for which I called the superfluous awards, I have a new gripe with the curators of Notable young professionals in Canada… this time though, rather than the awards, which obviously required a lot of work and effort, the issue I have is with the ‘love’

So this post has actually sat uncompleted for about 2 months now. Ridiculous right? So I figured, it’s time to finish it up and post. I was treated to a tour of a real organic dairy farm on the outskirts of Toronto. I was pretty excited by this opportunity, because like a lot of people

Well, based on the finalists… my best description is the “91% Toronto Social Media Awards.” And while I’m a big fan of the folks like @JulianBrass and @JacNicosia at Notable, it seems to me that the awards have become a
