Do you rate Wrigley's Energy and the IR? I still use chapters from that but am behind the curve clearly....

All the Ozempic is giving him Powell's cadaverous air.

I keep restartling myself with this fact.

Yes exactly. I'm not sure the average A customer would lose much sleep over this as they get behind the wheel of their big Suburban or whatever.

Funny or depressing to see a cafe on the grounds of UBC offering to match tips with donations to SAVE THE OSTRICHES? I vote depressing.

In the Globe and Mail every Friday, Kerry Gold explains to you why we don't need to build more houses in Vancouver and then on the next page a couple explains to you why their 2500sq ft second home was too small.

No better time post reno and with the new landscaping!

He looks more like Ernst Roehm.

When I was in Tel Aviv while they hosted EV, everyone assumed I was there for it. I was surprised at how large it looms for Israelis.

They are right: it's not OK.

If you range back to the HBC, you can say that Canada basically is (a nation derived from) a crown corporation. We should treasure them.

Canada nation built (and built and built and built) until the 1970s, then began the great dismantling. I'd pin it to Mulroney era when rails were ripped out across country & Chretien/Harris pulling out of housing funding/backstopping. Canada Post stuff is just another dismantling moment.

Swinburne waving at shelf: I meant to get to those but... you know...sherry

It's funny to extrapolate from our own cases the gap between books owned and 'presumed reading'.

This looks so great!

Is he old? I can't really tell.

I was joking ;-) They are definitely HIGH.

Hard to see room for two Nice Kens in the field - I wonder if Allam will fold for her?

Hard to quarrel with her hedges point.

Vancouver is like this right now. Relatively few people in the water - in arguably the best moment of the season!

Swimming pool lockers!

Kneecap banned from Canada for ‘glorifying terrorist organisations’ The Belfast rap trio said they would be taking legal action against the ‘deeply malicious’ allegations

It's depressing but not surprising to see Carney swayed by advocacy groups who wish to police protest at genocide out of Canada. It's bad for Canada and it is bad in the end also for the Jewish community they claim to represent.

They put the odd one or two in the window of the Kings Parade shop - what more can they do??

there is an institutional persistence story to be written about why Cambridge is not only so bad at marketing and organizing itself in the digital age, but utterly indifferent. Its attitude to the books it publishes is like a fish spawning 50,000 fertilized eggs. A few will survive and reproduce.
