  2. *This Hour Has 22 Minutes* has been knocking it out of the park every episode this season.

    Peak Canadian sketch comedy on CBC.

    Are you ready for a “movie that requires none of your attention?”

  3. People who love being gutted by listening to The Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald will very possibly also like Flowers of Bermuda by Stan Rogers.

    Sometimes I can listen to it, sometimes it destroys me.

  8. Some Canadiana from my life:

    My first voiceover / voice actor gig was narrating Colonel John McRae's poem In Flanders Fields for the local TV station Remembrance Day broadcast.

    I was nine.

    (How I got the gig is a different and long story not for Fedi.)

    I read the poem over and over, like a pro: can you go a little faster, slower, etc.

    I got it it to the needed time to a fraction of a second.

    I still know all the words to this day. It has never left me.

  9. Orphan Black is now on Netflix US. (I don't know about other regions.)

    Tatiana Maslany's performance is absolutely extraordinary.

    If you like scifi, it's a great show. And if you are an actor or you appreciate good acting, it's superb.

  10. Graffiti in Calgary 🇨🇦

    We used to be friends. Trump is hurting us. But the lack of a groundswell of support from ordinary Americans makes it so much worse. We just can’t trust anything the US says or does as a country. We’re done.

    Trump is playing the markets by turning tariffs on and off, causing chaos for everyone. And Americans are letting him walk all over your former allies.

    I won’t buy American again.

  11. 🍁Canada celebrates 60 years of flying the Maple Leaf today.

    We have a flag, like most of our neighbours. We’re not nationalists by habit, but today we hung it from our front porch to give courage to all the people fighting against bullies and fascists.

    But we also have a Canadian flag paddle. Hand-painted in BC and hanging in our window in Nova Scotia.

    May Canada always have a paddle when canoeing up the turbulent waters of North American diplomacy.

    Kick at the darkness til it bleeds daylight.
