3. Everyone can help make a difference.
4. No one is free of responsibility.

I had an excellent call with President von der Leyen about the road ahead for Canada-E.U. trade.

Canada and Europe are strong, reliable partners. In a shifting global economy, that matters more than ever. We’re ready to secure new transatlantic business opportunities together.

Nikihk (nikihk.ca) is an Indigenous (Cree) owned company in Saskatchewan that makes all kinds of cleaning products for kitchen and laundry, and also some body soaps. They are eco-friendly and Sobeys carries it or you can buy online. I can't imagine ANYTHING being more Canadian than this! 🇨🇦🇨🇦

🎯 🔥 Truth!
Your new favorite word should be "no."

Get familiar with it.

Start using it in everyday conversation.

Become comfortable using it as a first response.

Be confident and quick in drawing a line.

We are about to need a lot of collective "no" in the next few years.

🤸🏻🚶‍♀️👩‍🦽‍➡️🚴🏼‍♀️Wellbeing is a skill and we can strengthen it with practice. Just as MGT encourages us to do here, let’s get outside this weekend and inhale gratitude, exhale what troubles us. Share in the comments what you’re doing in words or pics if inspired.
Perspective.

It's the weekend! Go outside, no matter where you are, and do something that lifts your spirit, calms your mind, and invigorates your body. For me, staying active is essential to feeling truly alive. Recharge and nurture your body. We're going to need that strength moving forward.
