There is not a lot of #gold coverage on this site but if anyone wants to know about the precious metal and why it is at all-time highs, they can start by reading my interview with Robert Gottlieb.

At this moment, on July 20, 1969, people around the world held their breaths, waiting to hear the words "Houston, Tranquility Base here. The Eagle has landed" as Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin made history and became the first humans to land on another celestial body, the moon.

Since 1980, there have been over 400 weather disasters in the US, with total damages over $1 billion.

These disasters have cost $2.9 trillion in total and killed nearly 17,000 people.

Don't tell me we "can't afford" to address the climate crisis.

The truth is we can’t afford not to.

Don't forget that this summer it is free to visit a national park.

My favorite flowers are lilacs, but a close second is the rose.

Even something that is considered a weed can still have beauty and purpose.

This Chevy Truck is a classic

There is always an adventure waiting to be found in Montreal #MTL. I was walking down Sherbrooke and suddenly the street is packed with vintage 1950s cars. Turns out they were filming something. Obviously, I got inspired.

I just want to say that being a dad is amazing. It's not easy and every day is a test of patience and compassion, but my kids and family are my constant inspiration.

Happy Father's Day

Libraries are beautiful and magical places. They provide us with so much more than books.

As I've highlighted recently, don't look to US Treasuries for "safe haven"/"flight to quality" flows. Their yields barely budged after the Israeli attack on Iran. Instead, watch the price of gold (below) and silver.
The flows are happening; they're just not headed to USTs as history would suggest.

A film is being shot in Montreal and Sherbrooke street west was filled with these classic cars.

I have to give props to this journalist as it is pretty hard to narrow Canadian parks down to five. Glad to see Waterton Lakes is second on the list.

For a cool car adventure I would also recomend the Cabot Trail on Cape Breton Island.

A photo of Donald Trump. Headline text reads: 'The diplomatic impact of Trump’s tariffs will be enduring and unpredictable'.

The instant effect of Donald Trump's ‘liberation day’ will be confusion and uncertainty, which for him is often intentional. The more chaos there is, the greater his sense of being in control. Read FT columnist Ed Luce’s take: www.ft.com/content/7917...

It’s time to look out for ourselves and our workers, and stand up for Canada.

President's Trump’s global trade war is part of a broader framework to reorganize global financial and trading systems. But America First is becoming America Alone and gold is benefiting.

I think the problem with me being some sort of public creator is that I don't actually enjoy the publishing part, I mostly enjoy the creation part

like I have my whole blog platform w. a huge blog post sitting there pretty much done but I just haven't done the last 3% of cleanup for publishing

My kids have learned how to play dungeons and dragons at the library. They are also learning Chess. We are two blocks from our local library, and it has been a huge part of our family.

I don't know about anybody else but I feel flat. Not bad but most certainly not good either. I'm gonna disappear into the woods tomorrow and not come back till my camera is full of things to flood this place with next week. What does an artist do when things are tough? Make art! And so should you.

I just don't understand what is happening in the United States.

There is a serious problem if people are actually offended by this sign.

What has happened to free speech? Just another reason why I'm glad to be Canadian.

Gold hit a major milestone this morning.

If you aren't paying attention to gold you really should. April futures hit $3000 and spot prices are on their way.

According to Macquarie gold still has plenty of potential

What’s your favourite photo; this is my story… When people find out I am a photographer, the first question they ask is what my favourite photo is. This actually isn't a difficult question to answer because I have two that really stand out for me....

This is the story behind my latest t-shirt design from my favourite photo. I would love to know what is your favourite image.

I actually have another design but I had some feedback and people said it looked like the rings of a tree. So its perfect for that special lumberjack in your life.
