We rushed out of our B&B this morning to make it as early as possible to Burncoat Head park to see the "world's highest tides" at low tide and walk on the ocean floor in one arm of the Bay of Fundy. It was such an incredible experience! They tell people to be careful not to walk in tidal pools and not to disturb anything. At high tide, the water reaches those trees on the "flower pot" rock.#SKtrip

We went to the Grand Pré national historic site. I'm slightly ashamed to say that I didn't know that much about the history of the Acadians, except that it was difficult and that they fought really hard to keep their traditions and language.They came from France (like my ancestors!), and were working hard in Nova Scotia, trying to stay neutral between the British and the French... making both mad. When the British won, they were still upset that the Acadians had traded with the French, so they deported them all, mostly to the US (hello Louisiana!).A lot of the ones who were deported to the northern US states came back home with nothing and rebuilt their communities from scratch. #SKtrip

We spent the evening at Keji National park, which is a dark sky preserve and it was awesome. It's still under the woods ban, so we couldn't do any of the trails, but we had a nice picnic, spent an hour with four deer eating next to us and then looked at a sky full full of stars. I even saw a shooting star!!#SKtrip

Two kids just stopped in front of our giant skeleton."OMG. It looks so real!!!" And then they walked up to it to go touch it lol!That's what makes me happy about it. The joyous screams of kids. Sharing joy, any way we can.

@futurebird this is for we did it then we had to share a space! But then we couldn't share for long as my husband is in a lot of meetings while I need concentration to work. Now we're on two different floors, which is great! We're side by side in the basement though where we have our personal gaming computers

Sometimes I get a bit tired of masking, especially when no one else does. But then my MIL just told us she's been sick for SIX weeks. Coughing, getting lung scans (thankfully clear), etc.Masking is so easy.

Sacrament le Québec... Ça fait dur--Les profs non binaires devront être appelés « monsieur » ou « madame »Au Collège Jean-Eudes, Constance Bourguignon, qui s’identifie comme non binaire et qui emploie le pronom iel, s’interroge, justement : « Ici, le vouvoiement est déjà en place, alors les élèves m’appellent prof Bourguignon. Mais il y a un problème… »Le souci, c’est que « prof » ne figure pas sur la liste du vocabulaire ministériel : les élèves doivent « utiliser le titre de “madame” ou de “monsieur” pour s’adresser au personnel de l’école » en vue « d’adopter un comportement empreint de civisme ».https://www.lapresse.ca/actualites/education/2025-12-07/civisme-a-l-ecole/les-profs-non-binaires-devront-etre-appeles-monsieur-ou-madame.php

I understand if you can't watch the actual video of what happened.I do, however, encourage you to watch the protest that followed.It broke me a little, but it's important. We will need to do that. All of us.https://turtleisland.social/@Yehuda/115855536555418285

I try to be nice and post more bad stuff about Canada than the US. I hope you'll forgive me for sometimes losing it about our neighbours.

@Sternritter-C Are you insulting my pronouns, or just my French pronouns?
