Of course it is. We need to stop pretending that bombs and tanks can only happen in the "Old World." Trump talks about Canada the way Hitler talked about Poland and Putin talked about Ukraine. Too many people are laughing that off. I don't, and I'm glad Carney isn't.

5 stars to The Infinite Sadness of Small Appliances by Glenn Dixon It's heartwarming, it's timely, it's an urgent warning against AI, but most importantly, it's The Brave Little Toaster for grownups. GR review: www.goodreads.com/review/show/... #booksky

It's been 30 years since I last set foot in a school building, but I still crave setting up a backpack with brand new school supplies every Labour Day. It's weird, I HATED going to school, but I LOVED prepping for the first day. Anyway, have a great school year, kids! Learn cool things!
