Canadians are polite until we are we are not. What makes us not polite is fascism. We fought them on the streets of Toronto in 1933. We fought them in Spain. Long before America joined the war we fought them.
When you tell us we don't have a right to a country or kidnap our people we will fight back

US joins the group of rogue nations and basket cases that usually vote against UN resolutions in support of democratic Ukraine. Even authoritarian China abstained. Amazing how far the US has fallen under just a couple of months of Trump 2.0.

My book came out when I had breast cancer and then the world shut down for pandemic. Last Sunday, my friends, family, students, and colleagues gathered for a book launch party. You are launched, New-found-land. Feels like a pocket of light in a world that got dim. Trying to keep in the light.
