Canuckflack

Supremely disappointed that he was neither raised by beavers nor moose, Colin McKay never heard his name being called during the closing “mirror” segment of Romper Room. An owner of Generation “X” in first run hardcover, he feels uncomfortable saying things like “for shizzle” and “peeps.” He’s old enough to remember when advertisers only wanted your cold hard cash, and had no aspirations to move in, become friends with your cat and get invited to Thanksgiving dinner.

Canuckflack is a blog about marketing and public relations, but really doesn’t follow a lot of “inside baseball” themes. Instead, you’ll find thoughts, snippets and blurbs on PR, marketing, corporate communications, retail, promotion, crisis communications and media relations.

Colin McKay works in communications for the Government of Canada in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada.

As always, the material in my blog in no way represents the opinions, views, policies or secret dreams of my employer.
