It should disqualify them. If they can't take questions from the constituents, they can't really be informed to represent them. If they haven't published a platform yet or been at public events, it's basically a high school popularity contest.

What a beautiful day. Deer came visit, potatoes and carrots planted. Taxes dropped off 😆

Bzz bzz.

Spring.
Food is growing!

I'm listening to The Librarian of Burned Books by Brianna Labuskes and it's both timely and engaging.

If you are retiring I don't think this article was aimed at you. We have people flocking here and need the professional infrastructure to support them, not simply more retirees.

If I can afford to live here, a Dr can for sure. 😆

I wrote a policy paper on how wool pellets could revolutionize the value of wool in Canada.

Our local farmers' market is up for a bunch of awards this year. Check out my latest story for @thediscourse.ca

My kid is slinging pickles for me at the Comox Valley Farmers Market, while I convalesce on the sofa. #farmer #farmersmarket

Interesting research into fertility rates and how to encourage families to have children.
Spoiler: Subsidized childcare makes a big difference for women as well as men sharing more of other household duties.

It was my first time. #earthquake #didyoufeelthat

And they are joking, but I'm sure a lot could be said for letting the chickens actually do Chicken things in a natural environment, and you know, be healthy.

You know hens that lay eggs are girls, right?
...It's hard to tell around here, who's in the know about female anatomy.
Either way, yes! let them see the sun!!!

Canada also had terrible TV coverage. Don't feel too left out. You have to be there in person to get more than a glimpse.

I had a phenomenal time at the Invictus Games in Vancouver on the weekend. The Canadian Military Wives Choirs from Comox to Halifax were together singing and cheering for 4 days. We wrapped it up on stage at the Rogers Arena with the War and Treaty on Sunday night.

Here is my dog 🐶 in a silly photo.

This was the first not depressing thing in my feed today. Thank you! 💕

Pink light shines down on a freshly seeded tray labeled Red Onion,Barolo F1, Feb 4, 110dtm. The soil is tamped down and sprinkled with vermiculite.

Beginning the 2025 season. I seeded red and yellow onions, sage, thyme, rosemary, parsley, poppies, lupines, echinacea, rudbeckia and daisies.
But first I had to clean a whole bunch of stuff and hang my new lights.

The snowy view from my window includes the stand of fir trees 100m away and my snow covered car. The parking lot at the school got plowed though.

I think I'll wait until next week to plant the carrots.
It's the first snow of the season in Comox! It started snowing on Sunday night and it's still going.
I hope you have somewhere cozy to enjoy the view.
I'm going to get out some carrots and onions and potatoes and make stew.

I imagine he's trying to bank enough to cut taxes for his buddies.

Happy Lunar New Year!

Ugh. Now I need to find a new host for my website. 😑

Coroner’s Inquest Calls for ‘Total Reset’ of Community Living BC | The Tyee Florence Girard died a tragic, avoidable death, and her legacy needs to be systemic change, advocates say.

A jury that sat through eight days of evidence looking into how developmentally disabled people are cared for in British Columbia has recommended a complete overhaul of the system.

Yes, I will look in the eyes of a happy cow and then go home and make tacos.
Honour the lives of happy cows.

Have you played Waffle yet?

Welcome home? 😆
