Why mutilate oneself?

Oui Pierre, il faut se souvenir de tout et tout rechercher de notre passé. Nous savons depuis longtemps que ce passé était très violent, chaque tribu se battant pour préserver son territoire, sa nourriture, ses acquis. Heureusement, la civilisation ( de mœurs convenables et raffinées) a lentement permis l'émergence de l'homme moderne. Mais on sait tous que le chemin vers l'harmonie sera long, très long.

Une muse qui portera des gerbes de blé dorées à l'automne.

On the contrary, the ticking of the clock always works against you, especially if you are a despot, a dictator and a criminal. Réveille-toi, peuple russe!

We should all be very careful when commenting on these schools as there is much political correctness (pensée unique) and ignorance about what really happened.

 

In the 1920's, Dr. Peter H. Bryce, then chief medical inspector for the canadian federal government, mentionned in a report "in no instance was a child awaiting admission to school found free from tuberculosis.” Bryce referenced an “excessive mortality” in children ages 5-10, noting that infection was primarily contracted in their family homes and then spread in the schools."

 

In 2015, Tomson Highway, renowned Cree playwright, told the now-defunct Huffington Post Canada that he spent nine of the “happiest years” of his life at a residential school. The school, called the Guy Hill Residential School, was run by the Missionary Oblates of Mary Immaculate.

This beautiful plant is called Arisaema triphyllum....jack-in-the-pulpit....arisème petit-prêcheur.

Tout est parfait!

Where is this beautiful lane, John?

Bravo Philip, this photo says "Let the sunshine impregnate me thoroughly".

Mitchell, could you please tell me where this beautiful castle is located?

En ce moment au printemps 2022, Jean Charest joue à se faire élire chef du parti conservateur. Cependant, on ne fait pas du neuf avec du vieux, surtout avec du vieux magouilleur!

Z as in zero, zealot...wake up Russia! Vive l'Ukraine libre.

Bravo Svetlana for this beautiful photo with 6 subjects: the pianist, the photographer, the bride, the hairdresser, the onlooker and of course Ukraine which is on everyone's mind. I admire the courage of your soldiers, your president and the whole population which acts as a determined David facing a raging Goliath. Paix à l'Ukraine, Dieu vous garde!

Why "untitled"? I would have named it "abyss and weariness".

Right on Wayne!

Nice barn design which takes advantage of the slope it's built on

Gaétan, jardin Jeanne-d'Arc serait mieux dit! La pucelle d'Orléans qui a contribué à bouter les Anglais hors de France serait certainement outré qu'on cite son nom en anglais dans la capitale de l'Amérique française. C'est, par ailleurs, une très belle photo de celle qui s'est battu principalement en solitaire.

A blazing fire, a beautiful woman on a fur-covered floor, an inviting gaze, nothing can be more romantic? All that is missing are two glasses of wine.

Bravo Kurt, en effet vive le Québec libre, libre de ses choix, libre de ses alliances....enfin, libre comme tous les pays du monde, en solidarité avec tous les peuples de la terre.

D., would you mind telling me where this beautiful sculpture is located?

Now Philip, if you cannot provide me with a fair-sized couch, this is all you will see of me!

Québec, c'est l'hiver!

John, you have surpassed yourself with this beautiful woman, who seems to be about to tell you...now, is this OK with you, John?

Escalier Frontenac, ville de Québec, bravo!
