We were out with the dog at the time and saw. It was so green! Super cool.

Who else saw the fast moving burning orb in the sky, around 4am? I was so surprised it didn't make a sound!

A word for our times: St'eh-cation. ;) Let's do it. Other countries? You can do these here, too!

Chrystia Freeland absolutely slayed it on CNN this am. I'm happy Carney won, and so happy CF will continue to be involved. Ty Chrystia! You are admired for representing Canadians so eloquently!
