It's true that ignorance is bliss. It's tempting to live that way. But that blissful ignorance has led us all to where we are now.

It is just -2c right now. We recently got the first snow dump of the season. But this photo was taken at the end of January! Vancouver Island is fairly mild compared to the rest of Canada and stays green all year.

I feel grateful every day to call Canada home. Natural, authentic, uncorrupted beauty is abundant in the landscape and in the people. Canada is as wild as it is serene - a friendly giant: powerful and strong, yet gentle and generous. Everything we need is here. πŸ‡¨πŸ‡¦

Is one of the reasons Trump isn't leaping into tariffs right away because he knows the economic impact on Canada would unite the country behind the expertise of Mark Carney? Trump and Musk don't want someone that smart to win the Canadian election. They want Pierre Pollievre.

Canada, I think now might be the optimal time to consider CANZUK.

A hike and a chat with a friend is good for the soul. It's good for the heart. It's good for the lungs and the legs and the brain. It's exercise. It's oxygen. It's therapy. Do it more.
