He’s been doing quite well. He is a lovely and gentle cat and not quite sure what to do around the orange ball of frenetic energy that is Mr. Bingley.

This handsome gentleman was a bit shy in his new home. Smokey came to live with us at the end of the year, he was previously my mother’s cat but she is unable to care for him now.

From a Canadian perspective, I don’t think any country is going to trust or look for deeper ties with the USA for a long time. My government appears to be very quickly increasing trade and security partners with other countries around the world.
