I encourage all eligible voters to vote for the candidate that most represents their values. Democracy is a right we should all protect; too many people do not have the option of voting for their governments. #vote #Canada17 Oct 2026 02:56 +0000at://did:plc:cvaq242uvjb3szek3gnscnud/app.bsky.feed.post/3my23pxkkuk2phttps://bsky.app/profile/sylvietheknitwit.bsky.social/post/3mxuvxwixyk25🇨🇦 Be #GoodWeird because life is too short to be normal.15 Oct 2026 01:29 +0000at://did:plc:cvaq242uvjb3szek3gnscnud/app.bsky.feed.post/3mxuvxwixyk25https://bsky.app/profile/sylvietheknitwit.bsky.social/post/3mxfwrdgk3s2s🇨🇦 Since my favourite toque is missing, it’s time to make another.

Just because something is labelled as a product of Canada on the shelf doesn’t mean it actually is. I left the cilantro on the shelf and went to Farm Boy for 🇨🇦 cilantro instead.
