People are changing the labels on Wayne G's wine: "a merlot that is sad and 2 faced" "as weak as the name-sakes moral fibre."

A snow storm.
That ain't going to make any Canadian think they should stay indoors.
When it gets below -30 we might put on a toque. But it's all just another day in the Canadian paradise.

The new liberal leader has been chosen. An election will be called any day.
We cannot allow Trump, JD Vance and Elon Musk to interfere in our election and threaten our democracy.
We must protect the people's house from tyranny.

Emotions are not biological reflexes. They are the reactions of an individual with a particular history and character. They need to explained in terms of reasons, not mechanical causes, such as brain events.

The largest purchaser of wine is the Liquor Control Board of Ontario.
The shelves of Kentucky whiskey, American beer and California wine are now empty.
The LCOBO was doing a brisk business - good news for Canadian, French, Spanish, Australian, Chilean.
Sucks for Kentucky and California.
