What conclusions can you draw?  Here are ours:

Canadian readership has either dropped or moved to direct email for which no tracking is available

Issues of social justice seem to have the greatest popularity

Niche topics can be either very successful (Telehealth and healthy built environment), or very disappointing (weather and health series).  (Posting specific information is available for total views)

Canadian specific content which is the focus of the blog is not attracting the attention that was the messaging intent

Twitter and Link-in posting are not nearly as effective as they were
