Thank you for promoting Canadian blogs and for the encouragement and fun of the awards!
Thanks to all the bloggers. Despite the work involved, mine is still a relatively lazy contribution to the blogosphere vs. daily bloggers
Sir, I beg to disagree!
Ok ok I may have been begging you to do so
thanks for organizing this Jonathan, will there be badges sent out with the category and place we won in similar to other years?

Hey there. Happy New Year. I was wondering if anything ever came from the Call for Prizes? No worries if not, but as a winner, I thought I might inquire. Thanks again for running this.
Nothing, sorry
Well done on giving the best feminism blog to a place that is transphobic and silences sex workers. Hope you are really proud of yourselves.
No sex workers are “silenced” on the site, jemima 101. In fact, your own comments appeared there.
Troll elsewhere
