I've returned to Alberta after a long walkabout in BC, Ontario, England, and Scotland to learn and to learn from mistakes. I'm a money wonk for a mid-sized financial institution trying to keep my International Relations and politics knowledge fresh by blogging. Googling my nickname, "Kuri" may reveal that I'm also a political forum nerd (or it may reveal how many people use the same nick). I am a card-carrying New Democrat, a feminist, and an Edmontonian.
