Il faut un cœur bien accroché Š la réalité pour encaisser le théâtre qu'est le Conseil de Sécurité de l'O.N.U.
Une résolution qui condamne l'Iran pour ses attaques illégales est adoptée sans aucun mot des frappes israélo-américaines qui ont déclenché la guerre.

Were I to be marooned, I'd choose one of these islands so I could overhear my neighbours' #DesertIslandMusic. 😁
My five albums, I think:

Good Morning #Canada
B.C. is full of hipsters, Alberta is oil obsessed, Ontario has a superiority complex, PEI prays to potatoes, and all Newfies drink Screech at breakfast. Every Province and Territory is known for their unique habits, culture, and views of the world. And we all hold expectations and misconceptions of our neighbours across internal borders. Hey, it's a long winter and we need some gossip to get us to the end of it.
The attached video provides a detailed rundown of stereotypes for each Province and Territory, and some of the content is accurate, like Toronto being the centre of the universe. It's a bit long but you can select a chapter to check out your Province, or one that you dislike. My favourite is Albertans pouring oil on their cereal.

Even after so many policy changes on housing, that this kind of shit can still happen is very discouraging.
From the article:
Members said they found Malhotra’s plan both inappropriate and undesirable — too tall for the street at six storeys, even while they acknowledged its height would be within regulations under a new law and therefore not subject to their approval.
A nice obituary from December 31, 2024 about my Great Uncle Herman Neufeld (my mom's Uncle).
I never really knew him as I grew up 4000km away... but he had a positive impact on people, especially Jamaican workers, in Niagara-on-the-Lake.
"Herman, who died Dec. 31, became very involved in the Niagara Workers Welcome services and other outreach programs. He considered the farmworkers his friends and neighbours, and treated them as such."
