I stand corrected, everyone. I don’t know what is happening at Hastings Park, but right now there are FOUR nests in the trees around the duck pond.

Andrew, would you be willing to share this photo with me for my Cdn Design Studies class? I will credit you, of course!

There is also this tidbit from The Design Centre's 1953 pamphlet. We Canadians prefer "long life and quality" in our goods.

This was at a post WWII moment where Canada needed to decide if their economy would be based on producing marketable goods, or producing capital (lumber, raw exports).

Thank you! I'll have a look this afternoon.

I also think that the lesson plans and bibliographies are crucial for designers to set up a plurality of teaching and learning perspectives. We need to amplify our discourse on design ethics, decolonizing design, design justice, Indigenous languages...

I also want to point out that I think it's important to link some of these components together. I am encouraging colleagues to think of how lesson plans and bibliographies might work together, or designer biographies and encyclo. entries

If this means that I can buy French butter, then count me in.

These are examples of ways to combat natural resources. I now want to explain Indigenous salmon/fish weirs, Head-Smashed In Buffalo jump -- ways of working with natural elements, and how designers might respect and learn from this. Is there a term for using nature as a tool?
