“Inspired by the pods in Portland, What the Truck?! presents Truck Stop, a gathering of a small number food trucks. Truck Stop is a window of opportunity to sample food from a variety of vendors, or at least, top off your meal with something sweet!”Every Thursday night in May, Truck Stop will be in Old Strathcona at Dr. Wilbert McIntyre Park! See you there!

Edmonton Skyline - Nickelas Johnson (AKA Smokey Draws)
Every year, noted Calgary photographer George Webber climbs behind the wheel and takes off across Alberta. With a seasoned eye, he captures the unique images of the cities, towns and villages Albertans call home.
I would love to do this.

Canadians voted today…
…or at least 57%* of us did.
I recently taught a grade six class about the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms. Part of the curriculum focuses on how each right has an accompanying responsibility.
Yes, Canadians have a right to vote. We’re lucky. This is a right many around the world do not have. It is a right many are willing to die for. But with that right to vote comes a responsiblity to vote. That is your duty as a member of this democracy. If you do not vote, you fail to uphold your end of the deal. Without your participation, democracy fails.
A classroom full of twelve year olds understood this perfectly. Did half of Canada miss that lesson?
(*votes are still being counted, that number might change slightly)
There’s a $33-million Lotto Max jackpot waiting to be claimed and no one’s yet stepped forward with the winning ticket that was sold in Edmonton.

All I’m saying is that I better know whoever has this ticket. And they better be spending all that time figuring how much they’re going to share with me (hint - I’d be fine with $1 million).
Our eyes high fived!
