When I was asked to host a conversation with Canadian best selling author Louise Penny at UBC's Chan Center, my only request was she do an interview for the Sunday National. Fortunately she agreed and it was terrific. It's on tonight and then will be posted online.

This is my Dad's old typewriter. That alone makes it special. But only now have I appreciated how beautiful it is. The lines. The colour. Form and function.

#flagday at Saturday morning ball hockey. Canadian jerseys are just part of it. The deeper meaning is being able to keep a friendly, competitive game going for more than thirty years, with players from a wide variety of backgrounds. Perfectly Canadian. 🇨🇦🥅💪🏾

When the "Severe Weather Alert" warns of the danger of falling trees and the branches, it matters. The view in the neighborhood after last weekend's wind storm.

With the last concert in the Eras Tour happening three blocks away from work, I thought I'd walk by. What a scene. Fans lined up outside. No ticket. No problem. I've never seen this at a concert here.

The National from a chilly Moncton tonight. As always, the major stories of the day. We'll also look at New Brunswick's health care crisis and the Premier's plan to make changes, quickly.

CBC is helping our audience Make the Season Kind with special programming across the country. I'm in Moncton where I co-hosted Information Morning with fellow TRHS grad Jonna Brewer. I also hosted this program as a summer student (a long time ago). Great to be back.

Was curious about the resale market for Taylor Swift tickets in Vancouver this week. "Amazing Deal" clearly open the interpretation. Keep in mind, these are asking prices. And if you do buy a resold ticket, make sure it's from a trusted vendor. The VPD published some advice.

Tonight on The National, my colleague, Quirks and Quarks host Bob McDonald, talks about a life filled with a love of science and adventure. But he also shares two dark moments and how he's managed to deal with the emotional impact. Thanks Bob for sharing your story
