Bull River Trout Hatchery. October 2026. #photography #monochrome #classicmono #architecture #panorama #kootenays #fishhatchery

I don't have the faintest idea why, but the best architecture within 100 km of where I live is probably the Bull River Trout Hatchery. Seriously awesome.

Morning ride to the top of Wycliffe Butte and back. The area around the butte is protected conservation land, and the smaller trails cutting across it have been fenced off to keep visitors away from the sensitive plants and animals.

@mark-carney.bsky.social You’ve shown great leadership since becoming Canada’s prime minister, but continuing to match US tariffs “dollar for dollar” is a strategy that will play to US strengths. To succeed, Canada should be prepared to respond asymmetrically, with non-economic measures.
