Wonderful work by the folks working behind the scenes at gocapebreton and its financial sponsors. The site has already proven itself to be a source for breaking news, interesting opinions and current events.

Congratulations. On behalf of my colleague, Dr. StrangeJob, you have been awarded the very first Incompetents Anonymous (IA) “Get Out Of Dumb” award. Your worthy organization recognizes outstanding members with the LIKE award. At IA, we celebrate competence by simply telling folks that they done GOOD. https://drstrangejob.wordpress.com/incompetents-anonymous/

Thanks Tara and Dan. Dan, that award sounds even better than the "Paruch Exception Clause" :-)

I thought that was a good idea. Since the folks at GoCapebreton are such a GOOD bunch, the good Doctor has decided to give your group a real scoop. In Phase III of the IA membership drive, the Doctor will be introducing the “Get Out of IA Fee Card”, because even the Doctor needs to pay his bills. Fees charged will be proportionate to incompetence level. Remember you heard it first hear. https://drstrangejob.wordpress.com/2016/03/17/fubar-to-fu2/

Good work by the team from GoCapeBreton... .. nice to have strong on-line media that keeps fostering the engagement of readers local and far away to Cape Breton issues and lifestyle. Cape Breton needs to have the strength of collaboration of the precious small population to help community and economic initiatives to succeed in order that we get to a stronger and sustainable Cape Breton economy. Good on-line systems can (and do) offer methods to collaborate and inspire positive approaches. ..and it seem GoCapeBreton is one such positive system and hopefully will continue to foster positive community spirit. thanks team for GoCapeBreton and helping make ..... CAPE BRETON GO!!
