According to the Feb.13 issue of The Stationkeepers MV email newsletter, the Opeongo Readers are at it again — just in time for Family Day Weekend. Their new podcast entitled Delightfully Rude became available at 2:00 p.m. today, Sunday Feb.20. You will hear them read works by William Henry Drummond, one of Canada’s greatest poets whose humorous dialect poems eloquently speak for rural folks that are too often criticized for not speaking the Queen’s English.
