Come on, Maple Leafs! You've got this. 🏒 🇨🇦 🏆 #toronto

So well deserved for Jasmine Paolini. A great match between two powerhouse players, with a sweet victory for Paolini in front of the home crowd. Though defeated, Coco Gauff showed grace and composure throughout the match. A joy to watch! #tennis

Lucky to see the Ezekiel Papyrus now on display at the stunning Biblioteca Nacional in Madrid (until Nov-1st). Spain's National Library is one of the world's largest public libraries and free to visit! #booksky #libraries #Madrid

Waiting it out to visit the Museo Del Prado in Madrid is so worth it! What an extraordinary collection of masterpieces from some of Europe's most revered artists. Wow!

So prickly to hear the President constantly addressing our Prime Minister as Mark. Where's the respect? They aren't hockey buddies, for goodness sake. Not ever. 🇨🇦 #elbowsup #canada

Very cool! Lots of LEGO bricks in our house, including a McLaren F1 model. #MiamiGrandPrix

Such a class act on the world stage! Congrats to Casper Ruud on his maiden 1000-level victory at the Madrid Open. So well deserved! #tennis

This tree with solar lights always makes me smile. It was a potted Xmas tree we placed at our front door two years ago. My husband then replanted it in our backyard but couldn't be bothered to take down the lights. Now it's festive all year round on sunny days.🌞

It's a BIG day, Canada! 🇨🇦 Let's do this! 🍁🏒🦫 #Election2025 #elbowsup #Carney

It's worth every penny I'm about to spend: FedEx'ing our family's overseas ballots, from the UK, to arrive in Ottawa by 6pm, Apr 28th, in support of our Liberal candidate Julie Dabrusin (Toronto-Danforth). @juliedabrusin.bsky.social Come on, Canada! Let's vote! 🇨🇦 #CanadaStrong #MarkCarney #Liberal

Rest in eternal peace, Pope Francis. May your guiding light continue to shine over us.

Happy Easter! My friend made these pretty crepe paper flowers to mark the special occasion. She calls them Butterfly Ranunculus. I call them Bursts of Joy. Either way, I'm loving her creative spirit! They are perfect. #HappyEaster

Yes! Proud is right. 🇨🇦 As a Canadian living abroad, I applied online for my special ballot voting kit to be mailed to my UK home. It was super easy, and reassuringly secure! Every vote matters, folks! 🇨🇦 To vote by mail: www.elections.ca/content2.asp... #cdnpoli #CanadaStrong #FederalElection2025

A fine day in the Cotswolds to just sit, think, and enjoy the hillside view. #scape #Cotswolds

Good to know the difference between a heart attack and cardiac arrest! (I thought they were one and the same. Not so!) In both cases, call for ER help, immediately, and start CPR if the person is unconscious. (Thank you, NHS UK!)

Heartbreaking scenes from Myanmar and Thailand after the devastating earthquake. My thoughts are with the victims & their families. Europe's Copernicus satellites are already helping first responders. We are ready to provide more support. We stand with you in full solidarity.

Heartbreaking news out of Myanmar and Thailand. My family was lucky enough to call Bangkok home for five years and had the good fortune of visiting Myanmar several times. Heartfelt condolences to all affected by this devastating quake. #Thailand #Myanmar

Canadians living abroad, your vote has never mattered more! 🇨🇦 #FederalElection2025 #VoteLiberal Here's how to vote from outside of Canada: travel.gc.ca/travelling/l...

Happiness on a Sunday: Felix A-A ahead in Miami; Blue Jays ahead in Dunedin. 🇨🇦 Sweet!! #sports #teamcanada

Here in the Cotswolds (UK), spring arrived with the warmth of summer: 20C and plenty of sunshine. It was the kind of day you just wanted to skip down a pretty lane with a smile on your face.
