I know, thank you. I too love it. Don't mind the grunge, it's the ICE.

Albertans find it harder than expected to break from Canada. Good Separatists in the oil-rich province are beset by political and legal challenges

A year ago Alberta’s separatists were riding high. Now the western province’s “Wexiteers” are feeling downbeat. Register for free to read the story, and understand why

long to. But we'd have to go there... I'm too scared.

Katsushika Oi: The hidden hand behind Hokusai Katsushika Oi, historically overshadowed by her father Katsushika Hokusai, should be recognised as a pivotal figure in the history of Japanese art.

Which major newspaper is this?

Virginia Woolf, more than a hundred years ago:

CCLA Sounds the Alarm Over the Politicization of Alberta’s Electoral Map - CCLA With Bill C-25, the government once again fails to protect privacy in federal political campaigning, leaving voters in Canada unprotected.

The Canadian Civil Liberties Association (CCLA) Sounds the Alarm Over the Politicization of Alberta’s Electoral Map

Thank you for your courage to publicly address abusive language.

Please contact Smith via form & phone:

I do not agree with the government drawing their own electoral boundary map. I expect the Alberta government to accept the boundary changes as defined by Alberta's independent Boundaries Commission.

I think she loved Banff and certainly put her museum background to great purpose there. The Oi/Morse connection in new novel "Red Fuji and The Boston Boys" ( so named in Japanese, no English publisher yet)

There's a connection to Katsushika Oi. Catharine Robb Whyte's grandfather was Edward S Morse, Boston scientist who taught in Meiji Tokyo. He owned some Oi works, now lost. Catharine met Peter Whyte at art school and went with him to Banff where she endowed The Whyte Museum of the Cdn Rockies.

Interesting story, she is.
