scoring a hat-trick for alberta.

The votes have been counted and we have won in three categories of the 2007 Canadian Blog Awards.

daveberta.ca has been voted Canada's BEST PROGRESSIVE BLOG, BEST BLOGOSPHERE CITIZEN, and as of last night - Canada's BEST POLITICAL BLOG. It's a remarkable achievement we can all be proud of.

Tonight, we know one thing for sure -- our time has come, our movement is real, and change is coming.

At this moment in history, the stakes are too high and the challenges too great to play the same game with the same players and expect a different result.

This time must be different.

There will be those who say it cannot be done. But we know what we have seen and what we believe -- that when ordinary people come together we can still do extraordinary things.

Yes, we can.

Thank you so much,

Dave
