I hiked in the forest today to listen to the trees. My father-in-law, who passed away, believed, as I do,that the trees speak. They brought me peace as I listened on this day before we lay him to rest.

This guy scares me. I'm not ready to go back to the 1950s. I care about others and in no way is Canada broken. It may not be perfect, but how can someone who wants to lead the country continuously refer to it as broken? #neverpoilievre #voteliberal

As a progressive Canadian trying not to pay too much attention to what's happening in the U.S., can someone tell me where all the Democrats are? Where are the people who value freedoms and democracy? Have they given up? No protests? #wherearethegoodamericans #dontstaysilent #fightforfreedoms

There is really only one thing standing between your community and outbreaks of vaccine-preventable diseases, and that thing is childhood vaccine requirements for school entry. The Texas outbreak clearly shows what happens when exemptions to vaccine requirements are handed out like candy.
