Although I see the need for Canadian bloggers, I don’t see how to apply.

Well… I live in Victoria and I’m very comfortable with social media. Unfortunately all of my published work (all of it is through Helium) is about either reviews of games/books, creative writing, or advancing at work. As such, I’m not sure what to provide as samples.
