Marché Jean-Talon – Good Vibes

I spent my last Sunday at Jean Talon Market. I could describe this experience as being very… vibrant! I don’t know how, but the sight of so much fresh food excites me. It just doesn’t compare to a conventional grocery store!

For many reasons Jean Talon Market is the ideal way to spend a Sunday. It’s the ambiance! It’s the size! And the fact that it’s partially indoors is great because you can enjoy the market in the winter! There’s also nice cafés around, transforming your banal grocery shopping errand to a social experience! Jean Talon Market is so cool that it is the regular set of Radio-Canada’s “Des Kiwi et Des Hommes”.

Joliette – I had fun – Review


Bonjour mes amis!

It seems like my life has taken an interesting turn to Joliette, QC. The capital of traditional Quebecois music!!!

I found Joliette to be very… enchanting. Castles, bakeries, and music and more! I would describe my trip to Joliette to be a very pretty experience.

Interesting tid bit: They  have this thing in October where all stores write proverbs on their displays…

She hated ‘green’

Okay, so there’s this coworker I had who always spoke openly about hating ‘green’. She refused to recycle, and detested products that had green marketing. And despised bike paths!
To her, being ‘green’ was some sort of trend statement that went with granola bars and yoga mats.
I’m open to opinions, but being green shouldn’t be viewed as a preference.
That’s all.

Guess who I met the week after? Justin Trudeau!

Hello folks,

As the season couldn’t get any more interesting, I ran into Justin Trudeau a few days ago!

So here is the story (if you must know):

I made a casual appearance to the “Sounds of Democracy” hosted by Apathy is Boring in Montreal and there was le Monsieur in his jeans, Justin Trudeau.

He spoke off script about making differences. I heard the story before, but his delivery made it cool. He isn’t in my riding, nor is he my first choice for political parties, but I’m very glad there are cool guys like him in politics.

Guess who I met later on that night?

Literally a few minutes after I meet Jack Layton, I stumbled into Dora Keogh’s and saw Luba Goy from Royal Canadian Air Farce.

There was some altercation at the bar and she wasn’t having any of it. As she was walking out, I stopped her.

“Whose bothering you? I’ll take care of them!”

“Those people!”

“Well, can you at least stay for a picture?”

And she did! Horrah! She even gave me that crown she had been wearing in that picture.

I then asked her if I could be in any of the sketches on Air Farce. Then it occured to me that the show had been cancelled for a while now. But I’m sure she could hook me up with some TV comedy role…
