Paddler, professional communicator, settler on Coast Salish territory. Fair-weather bike rider. Increasingly concerned about the state of affairs, so I'm speaking out.

Let's not memory-hole what a fucking disaster he was for Canada. Oh, and HARPER killed laws that prevented the USA from owning our print media.
Fuck Stephen Harper.
No thanks on the hanging sardine! I'm not convinced we're going to sail smoothly into springtime just yet. February has a way of providing a cold snap when we least want one, but happy setsubun, regardless!

And yes, we need electoral reform!!
It's always the earworm that gets you. I think that's why spa music was invented -- earworm antidote.

Ugh, looks like we need to stop shopping at Save-On-Foods now, thanks to deal-making with ICE
Tell Jimmy Pattison he should NOT sell this warehouse to the fascists.
Of course. And CBC Gem!
I also got the app for Tele-Quebec so I could practice my French and it's how I'm watching seasons 4 and 5 of All Creatures Great and Small. French with French subtitles.

Activists in other countries should take a look at what the UK Greens are doing with this ad. Very powerful.
Coming here to pat myself on the back: I've taken the Facebook app off my phone. Way too much AI slop and not enough of my friends are even there any more.
Maybe I'll read more books!
Right on and thanks for the reminder. My Netflix will end Feb 4 and Apple TV Feb 14. I recommend you download Chek+, Knowledge, Hoopla and Kanopy (those last two with your library card). You'll never lack for content.
