November 11th

November 11th, a holiday that does not ask anything of us, except a little of our time, and respect for what it represents.

It does not want us to buy presents, there is no card, no chocolates to mark this occasion.

This holiday asks one thing of us, to take two tiny minutes out of our day and think about those that have given their lives in the name of freedom.

I am unsure if this holiday exists all over the world, here in Canada we call it Remembrance Day, the Americans Memorial Day I believe. What ever you call it, I hope you take two minutes of our time today and honour it.

15th - are you kidding me ...

I read in the paper today ...

Canada placed 15th among 17 peers, beating only Australia and the United States. Greenhouse gas emissions, high garbage production, and rampant overuse of fresh water were its biggest environmental problems.

I am not sure what frustrates me more, that we ended up 15th or that we beat out Australia and the United States. We should all be ashamed

We know better.

It is a historical night ...

Good Luck Barack.
