So beautiful!

That’s amazing!

This is a photo of a yearling black bear, rubbing on a power line pole in our yard

This is a photo of a young deer napping in a sunny part of the yard

This is a photo of a male flicker on the top of a topped tree with their nest in it. There is a nestling popping its head out of the nest

This is a photo of the same tree with the mother flicker feeding the baby bird

So many babies this time of year

Stephen Harper also sits on the board of AWZ

The more I learn about him, the worse it gets

Stephen Harper is also involved with Awz Ventures… also concerning

Chonks, the stray cat sitting in the open window waiting until he felt it was safe to sneak into the kitchen to eat. Once I knew he was coming in, there was always an open window for him to come in to eat and to get out of the bad weather when needed

This was Chonks after he came back from the vet after his fight, he was covered in deep bite wounds. Even being in so much pain he was a sweet fella, he never tried to bite or even growl at me or the vet

A pic of my feet and Chonks feet out stretched on the couch, hanging out watching tv and getting some belly rubs

This is Chonks, he use to be the neighbourhood stray that would sneak in our house at night to eat. After about 4 years of earning his trust he felt safe enough to come hide out after he had been in a bad fight. He is the sweetest cat, love that he decided to live with us

And moving away from the influence of Stephen Harper and the IDU

Canada as you vote, here is a reminder of who the Trump, Musk, Netanyahu and Modi ally Pierre Poilievre really is. #cdnpoli

CTV Cancelled a Fact-Checking Segment in Response to Political Pressure From Pierre Poilievre’s Conservatives Audio recording shows CTV cancelled an ‘election misinformation’ segment with journalist Rachel Gilmore after online backlash from conservatives

🔹 This is a manual post, not an automated news update.🔹
CTV cancelled Rachel Gilmore’s fact-checking segment after political pressure from Poilievre’s Conservatives. Leaked audio shows execs caved due to “distraction” from online backlash. A major blow to press freedom.

Heads up North #vancouverisland, you have anti-abortion candidates:
Aaron Gunn, North Island - Powell River, Conservative
Paul Macknight, North Island - Powell River, People's Party of Canada.
You all need to vote strategically for the NDP!

Adding messages to the material. This is the wool from my baby dress and I am encoding it with painted messages

Yellow and white knitted baby dress from 1972

Yellow and white ball is wool from baby dresses from 1972. White balls have messages encoded on the wool

Black and white self portrait photo on translucent acrylic skin, suspended inside a white frame with crocheted white wool from my baby sweater from 1972. Title “Others” 24”x24” artist statement "Although we might each feel like isolated islands seeking connection, no islands have a greater impact on us than the individual members of our own families. While we are unique individuals within this family archipelago, the shared history and bonds profoundly shape who we are. Our familial roots are deeply embedded in us, but it is our responsibility to determine how the past will shape our future."

Deconstruct to reconstruct - taking apart the clothing I wore a baby to use in new projects, a start of a series exploring family, expectations, outcomes and autonomy

YouTube video by Justin Trudeau Why Won’t Pierre Poilievre Get His Security Clearance?

WATCH: The gloves are off! It’s been an under-reported scandal for quite a while that Pierre Poilievre refuses to apply for security clearance. It was a scandal EVEN BEFORE the most recent efforts to undermine Canada’s democracy, sovereignty and economy from Trump, Musk and the GOP.

First fire pit of the season, Monkey loves to snuggle by the fire too

The herring run is a sure sign that spring has come to #vancouverisland. The #herringroe attach to the seaweed and become exposed at low tide. They look beautiful in the evening light... we really do live in an amazing place.

Maybe we should also be looking at the actions of International Democracy Union and Stephen Harper too

Amazing work!

We honour and remember firefighters, volunteer and professional, who lost their lives protecting our communities.

Heroes like Devyn Gale, whose courage and selflessness inspires and guides us.

They were truly the best of us.

One of my favourites!

Maybe Harper should spend less time on Canadian politics and more time dealing with the so called center right members of the International Democracy Union

Everyday is #caturday at our house

Can’t wait to see the results😊

A photo of the new finder in my camera focused on one of my paintings

Andy Warhol’s mother, Julia Warhola, was a Carpatho-Rusyn immigrant and an artist in her own right who rarely gets the credit she deserves for her influence on her son’s career.
