I always knew that many Americans are prejudice. I remember back in the late 60s a friend of mine drove south through the States with a friend. He returned with stories of how many times the two were stopped by police, explaining that he figured it was because he looked like a hippy and his …

Canada More Proud Than Ever!
As the world learns how strong and free Canada truly is, its people rejuvenate national pride. Social media is flooded with proclamations of how adults demonstrate strength, clarity, consideration, inclusivity, and poise in citizenship, leadership, and relationship-building. We’re taking the higher road. An example is this week’s move to by the Canadian Government to halt …
Well Played, Prime Minister!
In his first press conference since winning the Canadian election, yesterday Mark Carney offered straight talk. No fanfare, no bravado, just direct plans for Canada’s future. As he often does, our Prime Minister provided a hockey analogy saying that Canadians play opposite each other on many different teams, but when it comes to the Olympics …
Get Over It, Canada!
So, Mark Carney remains as Prime Minister. Anyone who knows me knows that’s what I was hoping for. Actually, I would have been happy if the Liberals had won with a majority, but I’ll take it. Kudos to the man who wants to play hardball with Trump. But that’s not all. Carney wants to build …
Canadians Fight Back!
United States’ Leadership has underestimated Canadian Leadership and the Canadian people. “Elbows Up” means Canadians are protecting ourselves and prepared for the fight. We will continue to do so until there are neither tariffs nor threat of tariffs. As Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said, directed to Felon Trump, “Even though you’re a very smart guy, …
Trump and Vance Bully President Zelenskyy – it was clearly a set-up

Detroit/Windsor Relationship in Peril? I Think Not!
Windsor is across the Detroit River which forms the most traveled border crossing between Canada and the United States. People who don’t live in the State of Michigan or the Province of Ontario may not understand how close we are. Canadian and Americans cross our border daily for work, shopping, entertainment and visiting friends. Since …

A Canadian’s Viewpoint: Trump has a God Complex
I never saw myself writing about politics. My bailiwick has been women’s rights, human rights, being a stepmom, being a grandparent, taking care of an elderly parent with Alzheimer’s Disease and surviving abuse; basically my personal experiences. Right now, though, I feel the need to write about what’s going on in the world. Trump shows …

Don’t mess with the Canadian Grizzly Bear!
Former Canadian Prime Minister gives U.S. President Elect a Piece of His Mind…
The Honorable Jean Chretien, Prime Minister of Canada from 1993-2003 turned 91 today. In honour of his birthday, he wrote an opinion article in Canada’s newspaper, The Globe and Mail. This man has gained my utmost respect by hopefully kicking a few asses. Here is what he wrote: “Today is my 91st birthday. It’s an …
