Valerie Keefe

Writer, activist, candidate, unpaid political consultant, service-sector prole, and general nuisance

Educated at Grant MacEwan University and the University of Alberta in economics and political science, Valerie Keefe, named [something else] at birth (but that didn't really fit her in retrospect, so it would be impolitic to mention it now), has been a frequent activist, candidate, unpaid political consultant, service-sector prole and general nuisance in the Edmonton area. A lifelong holder of minority opinions, Valerie is here to document her transition... from person who angrily comments on Internet discussion sites to someone who writes articles on Internet discussion sites upon which she hopes people will angrily comment.

Her writing focuses primarily on economics, trans rights, shiny objects and patiently explaining to people that being left-wing and conservative can be complimentary, if you know how to do it.
