Plow came back around and blocked us in. Husband and I knocked it down in less than 20 min.

Also trying to be heart careful, don't lift past your shoulders and watch your heart rate as you're shoveling!

Guelph, Ontario (a small city near Toronto) votes against providing cyclists the same basic winter services that are provided to drivers and pedestrians.
Motion fails 6-7.

Gibson, Richardson, Guthrie, Billings, Chew, Busutill, Hauser vote against.

I did not know that the Hudson's Bay Company founders had strong ties to the slave trade and were slave owners

Organized a soup potluck with 6 other women tonight.

This is how much food I brought home after our gathering. I'm not sure why I even bothered meal planning for this week because what I brought home might carry me to Thursday 😅

I do not want to “Do my own research.” I want to pay trained accredited experts to do the research, trained accredited experts to report on findings, and trained accredited experts to make policy based on them.

I am busy af with my own job, I don’t need to do eight zillion more.

Today on Remembrance Day, I remember my great grandfather Captain Hira Singh, our Canadian Veterans and all those from around the world who allied to defend the freedoms we cherish today.

Lest we forget.

One of my grade 10 students telling a story, in a normal voice to their peers, and then suddenly, quite loudly, "And THAT is how I came to my bisexual awakening!"

Meanwhile I reflect on all the queer kids who were in my high school cohort, who had no idea about their queerness until university 🙃

With everything going on these days, it’s easy to miss when local governments get up to some sketchy stuff.

Take Vancouver, where Mayor Ken Sims is planning to eliminate the city’s sustainability and climate department!!!
