Bad news for Good

Campaign button for Liberal Sarah Good, riding of SDG. I voted for her - the riding I'm in has been Conservative for the past 20 years, but I thought she might have had a chance. She got about 40%, not bad. I mostly vote Green. I was trying to get another one that said Good Vibes, but the campaign worker only had the one on his lapel handy and gave it to me.

 

Update on nine deaths in St. Lawrence

 Nine people drowned trying to cross the St. Lawrence in 2023 near Cornwall. I went to an interesting presentation at Cline House in Cornwall on the weekend - Abraham Francis, a scientist from Akwesasne was on the panel discussion, along with Victoria E. Ransom, Christine Fitzgerald, Jérôme Marty and Stephany Hildebrand and Francis talked about how the cutbacks Trump was making to NOAA could cause them to lose vital data on climate change, and encouraged us to vote in the federal elections on April 28, because changes in policies can affect our lives. He said when Trudeau and Biden signed an agreement a few days before the deaths to allow the deportation of refugee claimants to the first country they passed through and one of the families that died were trying to get across the border before that policy came into effect. Francis was friends with Casey Oakes, who was said to be the pilot of the boat that capsized, causing him and the passengers to drown.

Google Calendar not showing schedule / agenda view

Google Calendar App icon

 I wondered why I couldn't get the same schedule or agenda view of my Google calendar on my android phone that I had on my PC desktop. Then I found I only had Samsung Calendar on my new phone and I had to install Google Calendar on it.
