Blue Canoe

As a Canadian and an Albertan, I find this show unwatchable for the innumerable little inauthenticities. (Rubber duckies in a pristine mountain? That event would NEVER get off the ground. A refinery in the mountains? Puh-lease. An oil company using the term “tarsands?” C’mon!). It’s a death by a thousand cuts. I’m…

Sign up for the emails so you don’t have to remember to check the website! So convenient. Share it around, it’s such a great resource. 

This is a great resource that parents can sign up for and shows up in their inbox every couple months with age specific information and tips. Kids develop and change so fast that it’s nice to have relevant bits of information at the right time. I found it helpful, anyway. 

I think it must be a publicity thing or some kind of tactic. There are music artists with conservative political views who wouldn’t mind their music being played at these rallies. They can’t be SO difficult to find.

I wish I could star this twice. 

I’ve always hated this show. It’s popularity makes no sense to me. 

This is heartbreaking. The constant onslaught of violence towards indigenous women and the utter lack of will in our collective justice systems to make it stop is just heartbreaking.

Oh, gawd. Barfity, barf, barf. BARF.

My word, I was walking to the gas station and buying my mom cigarettes with a handwritten note at 7.

I’ve never used them but I think you just soak ‘em and throw ‘em. My guess is that because it’s acrylic yarn so it doesn’t hold on to the liquid and it splashes out on impact.

There are reusable things you can buy that do the same thing as water balloons. They are at all the farmer’s markets come summer time in my neighbourhood. https://www.etsy.com/ca/listing/533431490/eco-friendly-water-balloons-reusable?gpla=1&gao=1&&utm_source=google&utm_medium=cpc&utm_campaign=shopping_ca_en_ca_e-toys_a…

Her text message saying that it wasn’t rape (like, that she wasn’t raped by him) but she was frozen is quite strange.

Yaaaaaaasssssssssss!

I just came here to declare my love for Issa Rae and to say that I hope she did turn down Drake and is just being polite about it. 

I think it was funnier in the 90's when some of their outrageousness was a little more “out there” than it seems today.

Okay, I guess I don’t really know but I was watching the Queen wait to meet Donald this morning on CBC and the reporters covering the story mentioned several times that he should not bow because as a head of state, they are equals.
