Happy Canada Day!

[mawnansmiff]

Whenever I think of Canada I think of the late and great historical writer Pierre Berton. I have many of his books and they have entertained me with many hours of thoroughly excellent reading.

I'm sure in his homeland he is as treasured a great author as David McCullough is treasured in the States.

His attention to detail and his ability to keep the reader sufficiently interested in whatever tale he is telling is a sign of a great writer.

There are still fur traders. They just live in cities, drive Subaru’s, and play golf. ?

Close! Cheese curds, not cottage cheese. Much better.

Make that just cheese instead of CC and it sounds good.

But not for me...on a low-carb diet. Potatoes are what I miss the most...any kind of potatoes.

I realized that after I typed it, the curds made me think of curds and whey.

Curd confirmation here too.
I believe my wife is making tourtière for dinner, which is a delicious French Canadian meat pie.

We just need to sell Toronto to the U.S. and all our problems would be solved.
