SEASONS BEFORE THE WAR is a beautiful memoir of Bernice Morgan's childhood in 1930’s St. John’s that captures the differences and similarities between the way children played then, and now.

In KUEKUATSHEU CREATES THE WORLD, it is tiny utshashkᵘ (u-jUSkw), the muskrat, who gives his life to dive deep into that water to get the bit of earth that’s needed. That is why we must respect even the smallest animal.

35 years now. What would they have achieved? How would they have contributed to Canada? How might they have changed the world? We’ll never know. But on this National Day of Remembrance, we can try to make our country & the world better in their memory. #MontrealMassacre

How would they have contributed to Canada?

How might they have changed the world?

We’ll never know.

To all of this talk of Canada as the 51st state, I respond with Greg Curnoe's iconic series of paintings of America, where he created maps of North America that eliminate the United States and stitch Canada together with Mexico. Sadly more relevant now than ever. #ldnont

Happy Winter Solstice to all in the northern hemisphere. The turn of the year's tide, a pivot-point, a day of hope—when the dark stops rising & after which the Sun begins its slow climb back. A day I mark in my mind much more than Christmas or New Year. Fiat lux! 📷 by
