Ep 107 – From Tomorrow’s Political Page Turner to Issues Closer to Home. Chat with Me!
Tomorrow’s a big day for both Canada and the U.S. as Donald J. trump becomes the 47th president of the United States. With the looming issues of border security, the threat of tariffs and a prorogued parliament in Canada, this is going to be interesting.

I seem to be in a talkative mood tonight on the issue of parenting of all things – this after receiving news tonight of someone’s safe return home. Let’s discuss!
