For the ninth straight month now, Canadian road trips to the United States continue to plunge. Boycott the U.S.A. Elbows up!

The only way for Canada 🇨🇦 to survive the Trump fiasco is with PM Carney as leader at this time and place.

We may not always agree with his policies and actions but consider the alternative.

Yeah right‼️🤨

Angus: Who else are you going to give military bases to? When’s Vladimir Putin getting his rocket bases in the United States?

Large white ball like a giant mushroom top. It's a bit smaller than a basketball. It's sitting in a cardboard box on a table at the Market.

My groceries from this morning. Clockwise from 12:00 Two large mangos, a dozen eggs, two custard tarts, one croissant, a baked vegetable pot pie (6:00), two avocados, a pile of small potatoes, a plie of larger potatoes, a 1kg jar of plain yogurt, a baggie of white cheese curds.

Big surprise at the St. Lawrence Market this morning - A puffball! I haven't seen one of these since the 1980s. Back in the 1960s we'd find them growing wild in the woods. I don't like them (🍄‍🟫🤢) so I left it for someone who will appreciate this delicacy.

This year I went to Newfoundland. My friends and family went to Italy, Malta, England, Scotland, Toronto, Thailand, Greenland, Mexico, Spain, France, Ottawa, Croatia, Greece, Peru, Uzbekistan, Ireland, Berlin, Vancouver, Dominica Republic, Cambodia, Halifax, Australia. No one’s going to the U.S.

What a great photo!

I'll miss reading your columns and hearing your insights. I hope you enjoy the next chapter of your life whatever it may be.

PM Carney on the National School Food Program:

"No child should go to school hungry or sit in a classroom all day wondering where their next meal will come from... Until today, this program was a pilot..so, we're announcing we'll move forward with the funding and legislation to make it permanent."

When 2/3 of the painting is mud full of footprints and divots, I pull out the 4” roller. Artist tricks.

We really need to put to rest the myth that Conservatives are good for the economy. They've consistently inherited surpluses and left us in deficits. They make bad financial decisions while cutting back on services to Canadians. They've never been good for the economy.

In case you needed even more reason to vacation in Canada. 🇨🇦

I was hoping that this would be the outcome. Justice for Mme. Pelicot.

In case you haven't seen it, some thoughts from our Industry Minister today. Some good news for steel, aluminium, & we're just getting started:
•new orders for Algoma steel to 🇨🇦 navy shipyards East & West Coast
•orders for aluminium (Q1-4% to EU; Q2-57% to EU)

Conservatives move to restrict birthright citizenship in Canada | National Immigration experts argue that restricting birthright citizenship would "create a second class of people in Canada."

If there was any doubt that federal Conservatives are importing US GOP policies, here's exhibit A.

The Bellair Street exit to Bay Station in Toronto beside an outlet for Deciem cosmetics which cheekily signed their storefront NOT BAY using the same font as the TTC.

NOT BAY.

I wonder how many times they had to explain to confused people that they're not the Bay St. station.

Whole painting of a swirling, churning sky over a city skyline along the bottom edge. The skyline is dark, catching glints of orange light coming from the sun which is setting out of view to the right. The sky is deep blue at the horizon, with rough texture morphing into green, then orange then purple with flecks of pink and eventually paler green and blue. The mood is turbulence and some tension of the raging sky over the unsuspecting city.

Detail of the sky showing rough texture that catches swipes of gree, orange, purple and pink.

Close-up of the quiet city along the bottom edge with buildings all dark and light catching on theright side of each building. The sky above is smooth deep blue then clouds in rough swipes of colours in orange and green.

This is a painting from a time in my life when the stock market and business world dictated my schedule. Taking a moment to admire the sunset was an act of rebellion, stealing time. The raging sky over a city that thinks it's important.

🧵 I like 🐝 bees! When I see them I wonder what’s going through their minds, they always sound so happy to me. How do they feel about the world? [1]

It's great!! I'm sharing it on all my social media.

This is a lot of fun AND if you're a healthcare worker who thinks it would be really cool to work in Canada (It really would be!) stay to the end for some helpful links.

Men, ages 18-35.

I thought it was pretty good considering all that dairy and the pie. I'm lucky I don't eat meat. That would add a lot to the bill.

Crunch a bag of chips, preferably low salt Ruffles, into small pieces, pour it in a bowl. Dump a whole container of onion dip into the bowl, stir till each piece of chip has some dip on it. Take it to the couch and eat with a fork in front of the tv.

I do this. I go through the farce of putting a cover over the open can and putting it in the fridge "for tomorrow" but then take it out for "one more spoonful" a few minutes later. Repeat till the can is empty.
