Newspaper clipping. It reads: It turns out Prime Minister Mark Carney is a fan of Canadian singer-songwriter Martha Wainwright, and the feeling is mutual. 

Carney trekked across the Ottawa River to Wakefield, Que., last weekend to catch Wainwright's show at the iconic live-music venue The Black Sheep Inn.

"Fortunate to hear the iconic Martha Wainwright at The Black Sheep. which she immortalized in song last time she was here. Judging by her new material, these 'flowers are still coming up wild.' Extraordinary," Carney posted on social media on April 18, along with a photo of himself and the artist.

Wainwright herself thanked Carney for coming out, and for providing a little fuel to her friendly rivalry with her musician brother Rufus Wainwright:"You never know who's going to show up at a gig...so wild to have this incredible audience member at the Black Sheep Inn, so proud to be a Canadian, thank you Mark Carney for coming (and making my brother jealous...finally), " she posted on Instagram.

Both Martha and Rufus are the children of two independently successful musicians: Canadian Kate McGarrigle and American Loudon Wainwright III.

On the right of the text is a picture of both Wainwright and Carney at the Inn. She's on the left, wearing a denim top with a red undershirt. He's wearing at-shirt, grey top, and dark coloured jacket. Both are smiling.

This is Canada. You go to a show to see a fave singer, packed house. And nowhere, no how do you realise the Prime Minister is in the room too.

Well played, @mark-carney.bsky.social. Thanks to youse all for keeping it low key so we could all focus on why we went.

For the music.

CBC's #Icimusique is one of the best music stations around...it's a bit like KEXP, but in French. But also like Amazing Radio. With a heavy sprinkling of BBC6 musicness.

Every host takes you on a very different musical adventure.

This thread is my musical history.

In one of those weird synchronicity moments (oh heck yeah, that was an album!) CBC was playing one of those gregorian chant songs the other day.

There is a dark dusty corner of my mind where I have buried Frege under many locks, with keys thrown away.

Parked right beside the accursed 'Hesphorus is Phosphorus'.

Dear U.S. congress-y and senators folk and ordinary citizens:

The world would like you to heed a man they called the king.

Remove however you must, but remove Trump and his cabal.

And stop asking the world to save you.
