If there was any doubt how smokey it was today, I'll just leave this here...

I'm annoyed that there is talk about shifting the Premier's meeting away from Saskatoon because of the fires. I want Moe and Smith along with everyone else smack dab in the middle of this climate mess. Let Smith argue for unlimited drilling while everyone coughs. 😡

Just another summer day in smoke filled Western Canada. I wonder when the environment will take the priority of our political leaders?

He's been prime minister since March 14th. He didn't stop being prime minister during the election. This is basic civics. Proper descriptions matter.

Gonna miss you, Norm...

Honestly, these court proceedings updates provide a master class in why women don't come forward. www.cbc.ca/9.6758374

Waiting for the weekend.

What’s the difference between Maxime Bernier and a toilet? A toilet has a seat.

My own Election Day reminders: 1) We don't elect the prime minister so there is no such thing as "PM-elect". If you must, say "PM-designate" or "presumptive PM" OR, if it's Mark Carney, just say "Prime Minister", because he's literally still PM even after the results tonight. 1/n

Still eating onions from last year's garden. If PP is wondering how this is even possible... Not storing in plastic bags is an absolute must... That's for transport and sales. The people who grow food know better.

When I was 7 or 8, my BFF and I collected buckets of garter snake "pets" from a hiberniculum on her farm. I was holding one when it somehow bit me... ON THE NOSE! I will never forget that mouth coming towards me or hydrogen peroxide stinging the pin prick wounds across the bridge of my nose.

No need to dye these eggs.

My kids were asking me to draw things for them to colour. My son asked for an Easter Dragon, so here it is. No AI required.

If you love your library, listen up…

Understanding more about my daughter's ADHD brain helps me see through the lateral trail of forgotten pink ball caps leading from the mudroom to the driveway to her hyper focus on the amazing spring weather we are having this week. And, yes she completely forgot to put shoes on...

I don't buy the a CPC party lead by a career politician can offer a new conservative government... For a change.

About 250M years ago, 90% of species on Earth died during the Permian extinction. All of that loss created a lot of vacant niches to fill.
 Not long after, the first mammals, our ancestors, appeared. 
Life on this pale blue dot will be resilient - whether we’re part of it or not. #science #history

A new Liberal government will move forward with 10 new national parks and marine conservation areas along with 15 new national urban parks.

I would love ve to see some more toss ups. It's never good to put all our eggs in one political basket.
