A story for you. When we were @osheaga in Montreal A story for you. When we were @osheaga in Montreal in July, we tried @chocolaga_ chocolate for the first time. Needless to say, it was delicious (especially their Croquenbouche 😋).

I connected with the small business owners on IG, ordered some chocolate to PEI, and they invited us to pop by their Montreal store to see how they make their Made-in-Canada treats (including the best soft serve ever!). 

Thanks for the visit @chocolaga_ . So happy we had time to visit and buy some treats for our Toronto friends.

Also, this is your long weekend reminder to support Canadian businesses this long weekend and forever. 🇨🇦❣️🤘

Incredible. I know there is a lot of AI backlash out there, but listen to the full conversation to hear how Michael used AI and agents to build this platform - taking what StatCan has been publishing for years and finally making it clear, concise, and accessible for all.

❣️ Visited my dad's grave today on what would have ❣️ Visited my dad's grave today on what would have been his 81st birthday. I miss him so much, every day, never gets easier. Losing him so quickly to (AML) leukemia was painful.

On Dad's birthday last year, my son and I were seeing Benson Boone live in Toronto. He sang this beautiful song, In The Stars. 

It reminded me how important it is to keep enjoying life at every turn. I'm happily exhausted after two months of a full PEI summer, but I wouldn't have it any other way. 

Take the walk. Hear the music. Call the friend. Visit the neighbour. Work the room. Pet the dogs. Hug the family. 

My friend Erica took me to her mom's grave a few months ago and told me about a Jewish tradition to leave a stone on a loved one's headstone every time you visit. The kid cousins and I have made our own version of that this summer (it's shells instead of stones, because, well, PEI 💕).

Love you, Dad. I'm out here living the dream thanks to you and Mom.
