Nice to meet you, I'm Ashley.
Foreign Film Dub - the Canadian action film “Out n’ Aboot”
“Do you giggle when you say Regina?”
I frequently turn the tv to weather network’s station and then leave it there.
Oh, I don’t watch it, I just have it for the sweet tunes of the local forecast.
They were sitting on the patio, drinking coffee, when it walked out from the brush, and headed straight towards them.
Peacocks are, of course, indigenous to Southern Ontario.
Proud of you, Canada. So proud.
I mean, saying “Torono” (the last t is fairly soft in Ontario’s accent and gets dropped a lot) is passable, but there is no A in this city’s name. It’s not funny.
Or, you know, maybe they could let us watch them? Please?
I’m asking nicely because I’m Canadian.
A post from a friend on Facebook reminded me that my school was the only school who didn’t show their students Téléfrançais. I felt cheated that every single French Immersion student I met after elementary school got to watch this disturbing pineapple teach children French and I didn’t.
Internet, you’ve done Canada proud.

Jack’s seat in the House of Commons today when Parliament resumed.
We miss you Jack.
My mother is very traditional in her beliefs. She’s 49 years old. She was raised on a farm, in a family of ten siblings. As the baby of the family she’s always had to look up to her parents and her older siblings for a real sense of right, wrong, and the way things should be run. As a result of her upbringing and her own beliefs of course, she’s always, without straying, voted Conservative in every Canadian election at any level. Every year I’ve tried to even open her mind to the possibility of another candidate, another party, having more positive change to bring to our lives than the Conservatives can. Every year, she’s ignored my efforts.
While we were leaving the Ontario election debates tonight I saw my mother pick up some NDP literature and a button with Cameron Dearlove’s name on it. Naturally, I playfully questioned her about it and her response was unexpected and powerful.
“It’s time for a change.”
Today, I am very proud of my mother.
