And when all is said and done, looking after healthcare means a society that has fewer problems in an ageing population which means fewer costs to the government. I think there are studies from other countries that will show this.

Roy Thomson Hall, Toronto, ON

Squares of lattice work in steel are layer on each other to form squares and triangles over glass. The shapes glow bright pink/purple. Through the window, glass and steel towers can be seen against a light blue sky.

Roy Thomson Hall, Toronto.

The background shows the CN Tower in Toronto as well as other tall glass and steel buildings. The subject is a lattice work of steel which creates squares and triangles lit in purple and red.

It is a relatively recent development (1830s) and not prescribed to by most mainstream churches. I find the US conservative view so strange and really, not supported Biblically, despite what they might say.

The Shameful Christian Idolatry and Fraudulent Martyrdom of Charlie Kirk

As news of his shooting broke, the Jesus-washing of Charlie Kirk’s life by Conservative Christians began almost immediately.

Check out Todd Maffin. He has lots of advice.

Don't mistake our politeness for niceness and keep in mind that Canadians have long memories. Suddenly, we are nasty? You haven't seen nasty yet.

I have written to our MPs, the Minister of Immigration and the PM. I know that one court case may be important as a transgender person was not sent home due to the lawyer arguing that the US is no longer a third safe country in the agreement we have with the US.

Even Charlie Kirk would have opposed this.

Now that Pupo's has put up a new store sign, they've gone back to the handpainted signs in the windows. Isn't this becoming a lost art? They are done by hand. #signs #signpainting #grocerystore #localbusiness

Grocery store with Pupo's Farm Fresh above the large windows. Each window contains a handpainted sign in blue and red lettering showing the week's specials. It is a brick building with a bright red roof and white lettering for the store sign.

I find it amazing and horrific that they are banning books that were on the Ontario curriculum 50 years ago.
