An icon of Montreal's industrial past . . .

From the Kent Monkman exhibition at the Montreal Museum of Fine Arts - a window on our past and today.

Wise words. Finding the "good" is our responsibility.

My motto for today . . . well, most days.

And the series, "Adolescence", focusing on the poison of social media use by children takes your breath away with its writing, acting, and cinematography.

From 1815 - 1867 it is estimated some 150,000 Irish immigrants arrived in Saint John, New Brunswick, followed by further waves of immigration. We are part of the "Famine Trail" with memorials commemorating the suffering and lives lost. Ours is placed facing Partridge Island, our quarantine island.

Video obtained by CNN shows the rear landing gear of the jet buckling and the right wing shearing away in a fireball after the plane landed hard on the runway.

I hope America is as lucky as the delta jet - everyone survives but the right wing explodes

At the NATO meeting a loud US republican saw my CDN flag pin on my lapel and reached for it saying, "Hey Canada."
I stopped him.
"Don't touch the Canadian flag."
"Just joking," he said.
"You'll die before you touch our flag," I said, "not joking."
He scrambled out of there.

And "Just Gus" wins the "Gold"!

I have no intention of overlooking Canada’s home grown or made ever again. With Trump loosening regulations or inspections of USA food producers that makes it less safe. I know Canada has strict regulations when it comes to handling and packaging food.

CHARLIE ANGUS ON TARIFFS FOR ELON'S "DOUCHE PANZER" YouTube video by Charlie Angus

Did I actually refer to Elon Musk's legendary Telsa as a "douche panzer"?
And at the parliament of Canada's press gallery?
I wonder how that term slipped out.
But yes, I'd hammer him with tariffs.
I don't like fascists.

The towering mountains of the Canadian Rockies emerge and, briefly, nature manifests as art. Nature's endless artistic potential is all around us. It's not always easy to see, but when you do, it brings great joy.
