Shantell Powell“The fact that a judge ruled there should be an auction immediately without transparency or consultation with First Nations, Métis, and Inuit leaders shows a lack of cultural sensitivity.”
Doug Baker - Elbows Up! 🇨🇦I'm not a monarchist; far from it, but I can acknowledge that in #Canada it's not going away in the foreseeable future, so I was surprised to find myself actually warming to #KingCharles last week. The #HudsonBayCompany charter requires that they give the sovereign "two elk skins and two beaver pelts" when in Canada; I wonder - has their bankruptcy been a problem with that?

Throne speech was an 'emotional moment' for the King, Buckingham Palace says | CBC News
Some observant royal watchers thought King Charles looked emotional at times throughout his visit to Canada last week — and a Buckingham Palace spokesperson confirms to CBC News that the normally stoic monarch found delivering the throne speech to be a particularly poignant moment.

Sitting on the Stock of the Bay
It’s me…PamWhile in Vancouver on Monday, I ended up in the Bay downtown.
How sad it was when the original Canadian company was sold to the US and is now gone bankrupt. Does that gross guy down south have anything to do with it? The bankrupt King?
Anyways, they had all their mannequins in the corner of one of the floors. Naturally, I took some photos. 😝❤️
I love the last mannequin. It’s me. What happened to her right arm? Ha ha.

Much wringing of hands and gnashing of teeth in #Canada over the #HudsonBayCompany going, basically, bankrupt. An old friend explained this 30 years ago: it's the MBAs:
"What sells best and worst?"
"Women's dresses...nuts and bolts"
"Increase dresses, drop bolts. Next?"
"Women's shoes...tools."
"Increase shoes...drop tools."
Pretty soon it's a women's dress/shoe store. No other reason to go there.
You're welcome.

Robert James KaesWalkway between Eaton's Centre and Hudson's Bay.
I've been to the Eaton's Centre in Toronto many times, but this was the first time I've walked this bridge to the Hudson's Bay building.
The geometric patterns are mesmerizing during blue hour.
