I had fun reading to some Burke Elementary students at the Chicago Public Library today. When the Obama Presidential Center opens next year, we’ll have a new branch of the library for the community to enjoy.

Why Costco is worth the $U65/year subscription. 30 rolls of Charmin at Costco - US$32.99. Same 30 rolls at Amazon: US$44.00. Don't bother with the produce - stick to the other stuff. Jamesons for example.

Today, we remember the fourteen young women whose lives were stolen at Polytechnique Montréal 36 years ago.
Their names are a solemn reminder of the devastating toll of gender-based violence — and the responsibility that comes with our remembrance.

Take a look at The Globe and Mail comments on the Royal assent to the 'Lost Canadians' bill. Or even uglier, comments on the report that Frank Gehry, who lost his Cdn citizenship when he & his family moved to the US in 1947, was re-awarded Cdn citizenship by PM Jean Chretien. Jealousy & bigotry.
