I am so looking forward to participating in @letters_to_the_future_music - a project funded by @nac.cna and led by the stellar @mirandamulholland, @npshrews and @lou.cope.92 - bringing together songwriters and thinkers from Canada and the UK. Kicking off the incubation phase in #Charlottetown!

J’ai été profondément honorée de recevoir la Médaille du couronnement du roi Charles III, remise par le député de Hull-Aylmer, l’honorable Greg Fergus. Très touchée d’être reconnue pour ma contribution au soutien des arts au Canada.

On #iwd2025 - I pay tribute to the women in my life who lift me up, inspire me, console me, cheer me on, collaborate, conspire and dream of a better world. The women who just live out loud in glorious abandon. The women who just get it done. The ones who laugh out loud and show their joy.

An under the covers day for me. It feels fitting that this never ending January would lead to a cold.

There are people that you meet who change you forever. So grateful for the kindness of Bill Wilson, who patiently answered many, many questions I had as an undergraduate student, and who inspired everyone who encountered him to know better and do better. Sending love and comfort to his family.

Devastated to learn of the passing of Jennifer Dickson. I am forever grateful to her for her generosity and kindness, and it is one of my proudest accomplishments that her archive is held at @libraryarchives - she will be so missed. #ottawa #artists

Sad to hear of Raymond Moriyama’s passing. If you’ve not seen Magical Imperfection, do yourself a favour. Rest well, sir.
