Just applied for Canada's new public dental health care insurance plan. I am so grateful to live in Canada.

Early voting was easy! Vote smart wwe.smartvoting.ca

This is such a great tool for figuring out where you stand in relation to the various parties in Canada. votecompass.cbc.ca I love the ability to weight by the areas most important.

I took the wrong sticker! Lol I suppose I will vote again in future...

Its a little slower paced than I prefer, but worth the time to listen, from a very experienced voice in activism and coalition building. open.substack.com/pub/starhawk...

Reason #2336 not to vote for this guy

So in case anyone outside Canada is wondering, the #buyCanadian movement is not about the tariffs, its about the threat to invade Canada. We take our sovereignty very seriously. #NotSorry

We are calling on our progressive parties to cooperate with each other in the coming federal election. We lose as many as 70 ridings to the conservatives because of vote splitting. #cdnpoli #neverpoilievre #votesplitting

Boosting signal!

Really good suggestions for how to deal with anti-social politics at the dinner table with relatives. My favourite is to divert them by asking for a story about when they'd done something good for someone else. www.theframelab.org/how-to-deal-...

Happy American Thanksgiving to my American friends! Here's an interesting (uplifting) short recording by a historian about your festival. heathercoxrichardson.substack.com/p/november-2....

I worked in the solar and renewable energy industry for several years - a lower cost high range electric vehicle makes me happy. Perhaps when my smart wears out.

Any interest in setting up an instance of mobilizon, an open source community event organization tool (meetup alternative) in Canada? joinmobilizon.org/en/

I have a strategy to deal with zealots being antisocial: Years ago, I learned that the reason ppl prostletize door to door is not to convert people (doesn't work) but to accumulate stories to share on how they'd suffered for their faith. Our rejection serves that machine. Give them a friendly no.

Nothing like attending a celebration of life to give one perspective. Had a beautiful day full of sincere connection.
