Last Friday, I said goodbye to my amazing cat Alice, who recently developed an aggressive form of cancer. She took over many virtual work meetings during Covid lockdowns. She opened my heart and made me a better person. She was loved by family and friends. Her memory is a blessing and forever so.

Finished this mammoth 860-page book. Lots of lessons to be taken from this era of unmatched struggle and sacrifice.

For those who followed me when I was an active journalist on Parliament Hill, you may remember my cat Alice. Anyways, she’s doing very well and remains incredibly photogenic.
