"The Wildfire on Pipeline Road"

You can't make this stuff up.

Also it makes the eggs cute and pink.

If you boil your eggs with cinnamon sticks, your home will smell like cinnamon and not eggs.

The Truth and The Lie take a bath

What a beautiful vision

Life is hard in part because half of it works better when you blow past your mistakes like they never happened, and the other half only works when you take responsibility for everything you screw up.

I'm quite sure most of us spend a good decade or two of adulthood not knowing which is which.

Are you THE Terri?

Said with love. I love his journalism, does great interviews, contextualize things well. If he thinks Terry's knows what's going on, the country should know about it.

The Liberals of 2015 ran on a campaign to "make every vote count" as the Greens and NDP have done forever...

Collectively they consistently represent a majority of Canadians in Parliament.

All votes get counted.

But, not all votes count.

Reporters will often declare, wrongly, "this just goes to show 'every vote counts'".

Which is absurd....

Thousands of people voted for other candidates, and have no representation in Parliament.

One of the ways this gets misunderstood is in close electoral races, say a race with a difference of 12 votes, like Chateguey-Les Jardine-Napierville in the last federal election.

Gets counted = is recorded in the electoral results.

Counts = impacts the results of the election.

Clarification: every vote gets counted.

Not every vote counts.

They have been incredibly well organized recently, far more that the Liberals and NDP as far as I can tell.

Just because Houston didn't endorse Pollievre doesn't mean that his supporters did the same.

Who knows what's happening with the Conservative vote...

However it's worth nothing that just because Tim Houston didn't endorse or campaign with Pollievre, doesn't mean the organization around the NS PC Party thats been built over the last ten years didn't show up for Conservative candidates.

Another 12 children were successfully returned home from Russian occupation.

According to Daria Zarivna, advisor to the head of the Presidential Office, the occupying authorities threatened to take the children to an orphanage if they did not attend a Russian propaganda school⤵️

How someone can say things like this and then swear an oath of office after election baffles me...

Perhaps it's not Canada he doesn't believe in, but the existence of meaning itself.

Birds in North End Halifax

Halifax spending $64 million on land to widen Robie Street for bus lanes | CBC News Some Halifax residents and councillors are questioning whether a multimillion-dollar plan to widen a busy roadway is the right move, but municipal staff say it's needed to improve transit now and in t...

There's gotta be a better way to do this than knocking down trees and homes...

Riding transit in the summer months is brutal in part because of the time you spend waiting for buses in shadeless parts of town.

Humans need shade!
