Maybe it's because folks are on edge after the recent collision between a plane and a fire truck, but we seem to be hearing about more close calls than normal lately.
The administration that has a history of breaking or ignoring deals they've made anyway wants Canada to make a whole bunch of significant "concessions" before they'll even agree to trade talks.
Why would we do that for a deal they'll just ignore/break anyway?
Graph of an NANOS poll showing that 57% of Canadians are in favour of Canada joining the EU if that becomes an option.
I wonder what the numbers would have looked like if this poll had been taken two years ago? I imagine the numbers would have been reversed.

Pierre Poilievre standing in front of a mis-coloured Canadian flag, looking every bit the part of a smarmy, snake oil salesman.
More than half of Conservative voters want Poilievre to lead the party into the next election. Interestingly enough, more than half of Liberal voters want that too.
It's nice when both of the main parties can agree on something.
To be clear, this is not a bitch about me owing a bit more -- I was expecting to owe money this year anyway. I'm a bit annoyed because TurboTax told me I would be getting a modest amount back, so having to pay more was a bit of a surprise.
Fortunately, spouse's return more than offsets mine.
Within minutes of us sending in our returns, I got email back from the CRA with my notice of assessment. It said that I would get my money (if any) within ten days -- but that I should log in and check the results.
Good thing I logged in. The CRA was all like, "Sorry - you owe us a bit more, mate."
We did a bit of adulting yesterday and filed our taxes.
TurboTax (with my permission) went into my CRA account and automatically imported my T4A, T3s, T5s, etc. I basically just went, "Uh, yeah, that's all good." and sent the return.
If the CRA already had all that, why did I even have to file?

There are things from my younger days that I've completely forgotten about -- until somebody mentions them.
Today, somebody mentioned Super Elastic Bubble Plastic and I could immediately smell it in my mind.
Nothing like giving kids a noxious substance to play with for endless hours of fun.

I'm a bit appalled (but not surprised) that the focus of this article seems to be on these undelivered care packages to soldiers in the Gulf, rather that focusing on the fact that the care packages are needed because soldiers on these ships are having to RATION FOOD.

Shaved roast beef sandwich on dark and light swirled rye bread. It's shot from an angle that shows the various layers; roast beef, sliced dill pickles, tomatoes, sliced American cheese, and slices of onions. Small dollops of hot German mustard can be seen on the meat, and near the edges of the bread.
As a break from current affairs, here is the sandwich I made for lunch.
I like the look of the swirled, dark and light rye bread.
I couldn't really taste much difference between this and standard Winnipeg-style light rye, but I think this looks cooler.
Trump standing awkwardly while he pointedly ignores people attending to a man who collapsed in the oval office.
The weirdest thing about this award-winning, surreal photograph is that it was not staged.

Weather forecast showing this Wednesday with a high of 19 c, and next Wednesday with a high of 18 c, with snow tomorrow and Friday, and temperatures below zero through the weekend.
What I take from this is that we need every day to be Wednesday for the next couple of weeks.
