Polite Canadian retiree in PTBO ON. Concerned about our country's politics and humanity in general. I like bollards, language, science, ecology, history, and humour - amongst other things. I'm like the elephant's child; I have 'satiable curtiosity.
Yawn-worthy. People should read the National Security Strategy instead, a page turning horror story.

Sure did, but I was trying to be polite.

Hang on to your hats boys and girls, we're in for a bumpy ride.

I read the whole thing and, to me, the only good thing was the use of the Oxford comma. I am impressed that the document effectively insulted the entire world (with notable exceptions), an astounding accomplishment.

I've seen the beauty and culture of Ukraine, the day to day life (with many, many bookstores and art galleries). I'm honoured to learn about your history and what a determined and resilient people you are.

Slava Ukraini!

Sort of like kids and cats - a box is the best thing ever

Canadian here. I'd love that at the front door: mitten dryer and slipper warmer. Imagine coming home to a toasty sweater or blanket . . .

Yes sir, I'd like one please.

I never had to look for a tennis ball, we had two border collies. I fell asleep on my chair one afternoon, and woke up with seven tennis balls on my lap. Just in case . . .

I was just thinking about a time I finished a book before going to sleep. The next day I thought "where am I going to today?" and smiled. I finished a book about the raj in India and decided to read a mystery from Japan. The world is so fascinating.

I just finished a book on people not reading and thought it might explain why there's so much intolerance and hatred.

Then I read the article - I can't describe how horrified I feel.

Thanks, I have a new word today. How brilliantly appropriate.

It must be real -- it's in all caps.

That speech gives me the warm fuzzies. I signed the petition and if nothing happens, I'll nag my MP and sign as many new petitions as necessary.

We don't hear about Madison Cawthorn any more, do we?

I think he collects "dirt" on everyone and threatens to use it . . . but that's just me.

So beautiful!
