Afterward we asked shops if we could put up signs. Donate or find the next volunteer event at

He Was a Top Lawn Care Influencer on YouTube. Then Everything Went Haywire.
Many people think Greg Chism is a freak — or worse. He says he was just following the incentives of the platform.

My haul from Waterstones this morning. I went specifically looking for Body Work so was delighted to find it. I didn't mean to buy the two other books. I was initially drawn in by the lovely covers, then the 'buy one get one half price' stickers. I've enjoyed many Japanese novels in translation, starting with The Makioka Sisters by Jun'ichirō Tanizaki a few years ago.

Netflix, YouTube and Amazon Want You to Watch Everything From One App: Theirs
YouTube is racing to catch up to Amazon, which already offers users the chance to subscribe to services like HBO Max from within its app. Netflix is increasingly open to the idea, too.

Here is the transcript of the meat of Carney’s proposal for a deeper Canada and EU partnership in text. Full text of the speech at the second link. The 2 minute video clip got a chuckle (“better manners”).
“So let me say plainly what Canada proposes.
Canada and Europe should secure our strategic autonomy through deep cooperation in the full range of strategic capabilities, including critical minerals, defence industrial capacity, AI and compute, energy security, space, and payments.
We should move toward seamless, digital trade in non-agricultural goods and a wide range of services.
We should deepen our people-to-people ties, allowing our youth to live, work and study where they want on either side of the Atlantic.
Canadian membership of Erasmus can give your students, and ours, more opportunity to learn at some of the world’s top universities, to broaden their horizons, and to build lasting ties that will sustain our alliance for the future.
Canadian membership of the next generation of Horizon would allow us to pool resources, cooperate on frontier technologies, and leverage our world-class research institutes and universities.
Yesterday, President von der Leyen announced a “new European Corporation on Critical Raw Materials” to obtain and stockpile the material needed for electric cars, chips and batteries, clean technology, and defence. Canada has deposits of over 34 critical minerals, and we are among the top producers of the 10 most essential for the world’s energy transition. Our alliance can help fill Europe’s need for reliable supply, Canada’s need for advanced processing capabilities, and our common objective to build complete value chains.
Canada can contribute LNG and hydrogen at large scale to support Europe’s energy security including by developing and leveraging new port infrastructure in the High North and on our East Coast. We, in turn, can benefit from your leadership in many clean energy technologies.
We can pool new sovereign compute capacity and build more secure broadband connections between Europe and Asia via our common geography.
Canada and Europe can join forces to develop AI safety protocols, coordinate common standards, and strengthen transparency, all while developing applications so our governments and companies can serve our citizens better.
Canada and Europe should also consider exploring an integrated market for financial services to broaden choice and reduce costs for our citizens, improve access to capital for our companies while maintaining our world-leading financial resilience.”
