I spent a number of years documenting the stories of hardrock miners and visiting underground operations. I have always been fascinated by the fierce pride of miners for their work. Mining families are a special breed. I wrote this song to recognize this unique culture. youtu.be/sSXd3MU93ok?...

October is Women's History Month. During this month, we celebrate women from Canada's history who have helped shape the country. Today, it is Violet King.

She was the first Black woman lawyer in Canadian history, and the first Black person to graduate law school in Alberta and be admitted to the Alberta Bar.
During her law career, she represented clients in domestic violence cases.
She often spoke out about racial and gender equality in her career.
She then joined the Canadian Civil Service at Citizenship and Immigration.
Later in life, she took on executive roles with the YWCA and YMCA to help others find work.

October is LGBTQ+ History Month. The month celebrates the achievements, history and civil rights movements of the LGBTQ+ community. Today, it is the story of Everett Klippert.

In 1965, he was charged, convicted and sentenced to four years in prison for gross indecency after police discovered he had consensual homosexual relations with four different men.
His case received national exposure after the Supreme Court denied his appeal. It played a major role in Canada decriminalizing homosexuality in 1969.
Klippert remained in prison until 1971 and lived a quiet life until his death.
In 2020, he was given a posthumous pardon.

LGBTQ+ History Month poster highlighting an early AIDS case: left shows Gaetan Dugas standing by a lakeshore; right panel says:
"Gaëtan Dugas was an Air Canada flight attendant who contracted AIDS in the early-1980s.
He worked closely with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention to identify his sexual partners by providing names and addresses. His help confirmed that AIDS was an infectious agent. Despite his efforts to help scientists understand the disease, he was falsely labelled Patient Zero and vilified in Randy Shilts’ 1987 book And the Band Played On. It is only recently that his legacy been re-examined."
