My weekly #canadianbooks #canadianwriters picks are (drum roll please) Eating Wild in Eastern Canada: A Guide to Foraging the Forests, Fields, and Shorelines by Jamie Simpson - very informative with photos of most of the foods; also Scarborough by
Catherine Hernandez - a thoroughly Canadian story. For those who don't know, Scarborough is part of Toronto.
