HONOURABLE MENTION

hamilton mountain newS | mike VukoViCh – The cartoons frustrated and even angered me, as they should. They are well drawn and relevant.

GENERAL COMMENT

Cartoonists are so important, especially this year when the world is topsy-turvy. It was inspiring to see the range of talent in these submissions. It was truly hard to pick the winners. Here’s hoping our community papers continue to have political cartoonists as they can say things that often no one else can while bringing a much needed smile to the faces of our readers.
