Lover of dogs, fine foods, the out-of-doors, reading, and geekdom. In a former life I was an English instructor and reviewer of children’s and YA literature. Canadian, but well travelled, having lived abroad for 15 years (England, India, France, USA).

I’m new here, and would like to introduce my source of sanity in these troubling times.

Our home is for sale… we’re off to the trails and waters of Squamish come spring.

The description should note, although it doesn’t, that we’re 5 minutes from Skytrain and just off The Drive, a fabulous Vancouver neighbourhood… lots of grocers and restaurants but still a great place to raise kids.

We can’t let this happen here.
Remember when Kamala’s polls looked great, she had bigger crowds and everyone said Trump would lose?

Yeah, me too.

That’s why I’m speaking with family, friends and neighbours.

Please do the same - ignore the noise.

This the most important election of our lifetime.

About the Hudson Bay blanket, which every store is now sold out of…

Blanket Statement
The Hudson’s Bay Company blanket is a symbol of colonial Canada, but for Métis people in the Prairies, it also stands for community, ceremony and survival.

Trump and Elon are panicking! Trump just said today that boycotting Tesla was "illegal". Keep pushing! Nazi Musk has all his wealth tied to Tesla stock.

😂😂😂 Reading a mystery set in a “quaint” town “just west of the Similkameen valley” with an outlet mall and its own university 😂 Spot the American author fabricating a Canadian setting. Or a Canadian writing for the American buying public.

With everything that’s happening to the south, I’m horrified to see that the Conservatives still have a strong projected lead in our next election. Get ON this, people. Vite, and vote wisely . We can’t have a northern Trump. And let’s not split the vote.

Song of the day: Bud the Spud- Stompin' Tom
Say aye for PEI. Just say no to Idaho.
My fellow Canucks are checking in with tales of defending our nation by purchases at the grocery store.
No USA products.
The resistance is here:
