My own selfish reason for wanting you to get your flu shots is that I don't want you to make me sick!

Non-profit Art Galleries like this one, which operate with no govt. funding, and no paid Board or staff are a real service to the community. This Duncan, BC, gallery survives on donations and memberships. Can you help?

This is a great idea, but I have not heard of a lot in Canada.
Local organisers/repair nerds across the country have a challenge.
This organisation supports local groups worldwide in starting and running their own Repair Cafés.

It would be good if party leaders allowed their members to vote according to their conscience. (although many would question if politicians have a conscience 😏)

The new sign outside the Oval Office (just in case some high-ranking foreign dignitary couldn't find it once they got to the White House) does not appear to be finished. I'm sure that Trump wants his black Sharpie signature under it.

The decor of the Oval Office under Trump has gone from respectable and business-like to an obscene, gaudy, Saudi-Arabian carnival-like side show.
Of course, as always, it is all those Americans who have trouble paying for groceries who are paying for his opulent obcessions.
