The Nation That Trump Could Never Break Canada didn’t just resist, they reminded the rest of us how to endure

Message from Ukraine:
Thank you, Canada.
For being yourselves when so many others are trying to be worse.
You reminded us that we are not alone.
Because of you, this morning felt a little less like the end of the world.
And more like something worth staying alive for.

A soft springtime illustration set in a sunny glade, a group of young bunny girls in frilly white dresses and flower crowns prancing around a tall wooden maypole carved in the shape of a rabbit. Each girl holds a ribbon and reaches for the paw of the next girl as they dance, braiding the ribbons around the neck of the maypole. Colorful flags are strung from the top of the pole and flowering trees, bushes and grass decorate the background.

Here's my video on Day 1 of the federal election campaign, looking at B.C.'s electoral map.

Featuring charts! References to small towns! The implicit understanding that nothing on this earth is forever and society is inherently tenuous!

Last week, I read a book which was, beyond doubt, the worst novel I’ve ever read. This week, I’m reading a novel that has, in its beauty, inspired me to new heights.

That’s what I love about reading: you learn something from every book you open β€” even the really, really terrible ones.

This is the first page of this morning’s edition of the Globe and Mail (arguably the English Canadian paper of record)
I don’t remember seeing anything like this before
