Canada is bigger (2nd largest country in the world) and nobody answers by province.

 

On the 80th anniversary of being liberated by Canadian troops, the team from the city of Leeuwarden are wearing maple leaf-festooned jerseys.

I noticed that often, when traveling, people from the U.S. will say the state they're from rather than the country. I've often wondered why.

You're going to the right place. Lots of beauty there.

There are worse things than being stuck in Canada.

 

It's confusing trying to buy Canadian with all the variations of made in, assembled in, grown in, packaged in, etc. Can we copy the Australian food labeling system, perhaps replacing the kangeroo with a maple leaf? I find this much clearer.

 

A UK company has developed a loop system which turns methane gas into hydrogen and graphene. It's being tested at several farm sites.

 

While Canadians are using "elbows up" diplomacy with the white house, they are welcoming U.S. tourists with open arms.

 

2 000 year-old mounds from a civilization that left no written record opened for public viewing in January, 2025.

They have a machine called a groomer. It can lay the tracks for the classic ski and the skate ski trail. They also have other groomers for the fat bike trails and snow shoe trails.

There are three ski trails within the Sudbury city limits: Laurentian, Naughton, and Kivi Park. All of them have groomed trails for classic skiing, skate skiing, snow shoeing, and fat bike riding. Kivi also has a skating trail

I just sent an inquiry to Friesen Press, located in Winnipeg. They're calling me Thursday. I'll let you know what I find out, or give them a call yourself. They seem nice.

Let's do it. We can detach the Canadarm from the International Space Station and use that too.

Sudbury, Ontario. Two more days of skiing and then it's supposed to warm up.

 
 

I also learned I knew more German than I thought. "Das ist wunderbar qwarterbak sak."

 

The leaves are soft and the size of a square of toilet paper. The plant grows up to 2 m tall.

 

Until now, the U.S. was the only country allowed to export eggs to Canada. Decreasing stocks in the U.S. has prompted Canada to add Ukraine to the list.

 

A bomber carrying the bombs crashed into its refueling jet causing the disaster. Two of the bombs' parachutes didn't open and the explosives around the nuclear core exploded scattering radiation across the countryside. The U.S. and Spain reached an agreement to clean up the soil, but it still hasn't been done.

 

I was looking through some old vacation pictures and came across this one. It sure gives a perspective on how big these trees are.
