A couple of years ago I offered a Studio sculpture experience. For $2000 you could spend the morning or afternoon making or watch me make a sculpture, then you get to take the sculpture home. The proceeds would go to The Stollery. Last time 3 people booked this and they all loved it.

It is hard to put into words how much damage Trump is doing to our own country, how unfit and malevolent he is.

We have a US administration trying to bully Ukrainians into accepting Russia’s proposal that their sovereignty be undone. Aside from the naked injustice of this, there are five basic practical reasons why it would make the world far more dangerous.

Sigurdson has offered no explanation for his vote. Apparently “this choice was not made lightly.” That’s all we get.
