We had a friend in Vancouver who would buy the same wine every year and then do a tasting of every year, compared, and take notes in a book.

It was so intense :D

And we hated his wine choices, so we always brought our own cheaper wine at his event lolll (he never complained about what everyone brought though!!)

2026-09-26T12:54:23Z

"Driscoll’s berries are on many Canadians’ plates and all over Canadian grocery stores, with their tagline claiming to be “only the finest berries.”

But a whistleblower lawsuit in California alleges the finest berries were not sent to Canada: instead, millions of pounds of fruit containing non-compliant levels of pesticides and chemicals crossed the border, and the company tried to cover it up.

California resident and former Driscoll’s employee David Harada claims in the lawsuit that by Driscoll’s own estimates, about 50 per cent of all shipments to Canada from 2022 to 2024 had fruit that exceeded Canadian safety levels."

2026-09-11T00:46:08Z

We planned our trip around our Grotto reservation, so I really wanted to do this one! There are three ways to get to and from the Grotto - easy, moderate and hard. I told Kyle I could probably do moderate on the way there, easy back. But Parks Canada is VERY conservative on their trail difficulties, so we actually did moderate and hard (!) because the easy trail was super busy and boring.

It was the right decision as the trails were really fun! The grotto was pretty, but sooo busy, we didn't stay long.

Terminées, les études collégiales dans les pénitenciers fédéraux du Québec

Le Cégep Marie-Victorin et les professeurs qui enseignent à la population carcérale à Cowansville et à Joliette dénoncent cette décision de Services correctionnels Canada qui va, selon eux, à l’encontre de la mission de réhabilitation et de réinsertion sociale des établissements pénitentiaires.

« C’était silencieux. Les gens faisaient leur deuil. Plusieurs personnes pleuraient. » Voilà comment a été reçue la nouvelle de la fin abrupte de l’offre de cours de niveau collégial à l’intérieur des murs du pénitencier de Cowansville, plus tôt cette semaine, raconte le professeur Samuel Rochette.

Le plus touchant et le plus déchirant, c’était les étudiants qui se sont levés et qui ont expliqué que ce parcours d’études là avait vraiment changé leur vie, ajoute M. Rochette, qui est professeur de psychologie au Cégep Marie-Victorin, au régulier mais aussi en milieu carcéral depuis quelques années.

Le Cégep Marie-Victorin indique avoir appris avec grande surprise la semaine dernière la décision de Services correctionnels Canada (SCC) d’interrompre dès le 30 juin prochain le financement de la formation collégiale dans les pénitenciers fédéraux au Québec, des services qui étaient offerts depuis 52 ans à la population carcérale.

Because museums are very well known for... *checks notes* having too much staff.

---

The Canadian Museum of History and the Canadian War Museum will be cutting permanent staff levels by 18 per cent over the next three years due to cuts announced in the federal budget.

The job cuts will affect "a broad sweep" of staff, from executives to security personnel and staff who run tours, said Ruth Lau MacDonald, regional executive vice-president of the Public Service Alliance of Canada (PSAC) for the National Capital Region.

That will likely impact the visitor experience, she said, as tours become more self-directed and interactions with subject experts less common.

"It's really unfortunate to [potentially lose] people who can take you beyond what's written on a plaque and really talk to you about the meaning and the history of an exhibit," Lau MacDonald said.

"Choices made by each generation determined to keep building – not on blood or soil – but on something more demanding and more durable: a shared commitment to live together, to accommodate differences, to pursue the common good.

And with each of these choices, Canada has become richer, more inclusive, and fairer.

What makes Canada a great country?

It’s a great country for everyone. It is the greatest country in the world to be a regular person. You don’t have to be born rich, or to a landed family. You don’t have to be a certain colour or worship a certain god."

2026-01-23T03:53:44Z

Ehhh. Québec is not happy about this speech that Carney made in Québec City today.

Trying to erase the history of the British trying to assimilate the French. It's subtle, but it's incredibly insulting.

--

"New France had fallen. British North America had begun.

It would have been easy – even expected – for the story to end there.

The familiar pattern of conquest: the vanquished absorbed, their language suppressed, their faith proscribed, their laws replaced. That is what conquerors had done for millennia.

From the Great Deportation of the Acadians to the Durham Report following the Patriots’ Rebellion, there were efforts by some to impose that model – assimilation, the familiar logic of conquest.

But in the end, that is not the path Canada took."

--

The Plains of Abraham mark a battlefield, and also the place where Canada began to make its founding choice of accommodation over assimilation, of partnership over domination, of building together over pulling apart.

I do think that people have a limit as to how many things they can loudly and truly care about.

For me, it was how we treat indigenous peoples in Canada. Then Ukraine, and Palestine.

And now? We're a bit overwhelmed with the one country who has the most power in the world and wants to start WW3.

I think it's human also? We're all a bit selfish. Doesn't mean we forget our own shortcomings.

It's been really interesting to read all of this.

I've been reading a lot of those "allistic people are like this" and.. I don't recognize myself in any of those posts.

But I'm also not autistic and don't recognize myself in those either.

It's.. confusing.

Good history reminder. For.. no reason at all, eh.

In the 1930s, British leaders pursued appeasement because they wanted to avoid a second world war.

"Today, appeasement is usually regarded as a failure"

I definitely still use some ableist terms (I'm really finding it difficult with some words like crazy, insane - about events though, not people).

However, physical traits are so easy to avoid. So many things to complain about than their physical attributes. I've filtered a lot of them, so people might think I'm ignoring them sometimes lol

The whole diaper thing also really annoys me. Don't make seniors feel awful about these kinds of very normal things. You don't become gross and awful because your body is failing you a little.

If Internet existed during WW2, a lot of people would have asked you to censor yourselves while talking about concentration camps and the horrors of war.

If Canada ever gets invaded, I better not be told to CW my experience and feelings.

With the ice storm announced... What are your plans if you lose power for multiple days? At our old house we had a firewood fireplace. But we kinda have no backup plan here :/
