Queen Victoria is short for Victorious, is and is a translation of the name Boudicca from the Early on 1st millennium common era when Boudicca attempted to drive the Romans from Britain.
Home rule + pax Britannia was accomplished in the first half of the 19th century when Boudicca’s namesake accomplished it, noted as a Golden age for humanity cuz relative peace was in place.
Peace was relative particularly because the US civil war raged.
So, to give Peace a try, we won’t publish Sunday and Monday as You observe any relativity that makes you happy.
We think that tonight’s election results depended a lot on the demonstration of the democratic principle of “responsiveness of government”
It is our hope at the proprietor review that this continues whether it’s a majority or minority government situation. Parliament remains responsive to the people. No matter how this mandate goes.
The 44th Parliament of Canada was convened on November 22, 2021, following the federal election held on September 20, 2021. The election determined the 338 seats in the House of Commons. Therefore, at the beginning of the 44th Parliament, there were 338 seats in the House of Commons.Here’s a bit more information about the 44th Parliament: * Duration: November 22, 2021 – March 23, 2025. * It was a minority parliament, meaning no single party held a majority of the seats. * Prime Minister: Justin Trudeau (Liberal Party) until March 14, 2025, followed by Mark Carney (Liberal Party). * Government: Liberal Party. * Leaders of the Opposition: * Erin O’Toole (Conservative Party) until February 2, 2022. * Candice Bergen (Conservative Party, interim) until September 10, 2022. * Pierre Poilievre (Conservative Party) from September 10, 2022. * Other Recognized Parties in the House of Commons: Bloc Québécois, New Democratic Party (NDP), and Green Party. * Speaker of the House of Commons: * Anthony Rota until September 27, 2023. * Louis Plamondon (interim) from September 27, 2023, to October 3, 2023. * Greg Fergus from October 3, 2023.The distribution of seats in the House of Commons at the start of the 44th Parliament was as follows: * Liberal Party: 160 * Conservative Party: 119 * Bloc Québécois: 32 * New Democratic Party: 25 * Green Party: 2Over the course of the 44th Parliament, there were some changes in the number of seats held by each party due to resignations, by-elections, and members becoming independent. However, the total number of seats in the House of Commons remained 338. The 44th Parliament was dissolved on March 23, 2025, leading to the general election held on April 28, 2025.

May is the month to prepare for summer.Heres some ideas:
To prepare for summer, one should start by decluttering their living space, ensuring that it feels fresh and inviting. Next, consider updating your wardrobe by packing away winter clothes and investing in lightweight, breathable fabrics. Don’t forget to check your air conditioning system and appliances to make sure they’re in good working order for the heat. Planning summer activities, such as beach trips or outdoor events, can also help create a fun itinerary. Lastly, focus on hydration and skin protection by stocking up on sunscreen and water bottles to stay safe during the warmer months.
The new moon will occur on Sunday, April 27, 2025, at 12:31 PM PDT on the west coast of North America.Visibility on the West Coast of North America:A new moon is the first lunar phase, which occurs when the Moon lies between the Earth and the Sun. At this phase, the sunlit side of the Moon faces away from Earth, making the Moon generally invisible to the naked eye. It rises and sets at roughly the same time as the Sun.Therefore, on the night of April 27th, 2025, and the days immediately surrounding it, the new moon will not be visible from the west coast of North America. The sky will appear dark (assuming clear weather and minimal light pollution), which makes it an excellent time for observing stars and other fainter celestial objects.General Information about the New Moon: * The Start of the Lunar Cycle: The new moon marks the beginning of the approximately 29.5-day lunar cycle. * Alignment: During a new moon, the Moon is positioned between the Earth and the Sun. * Earthshine: Although the sunlit side faces away, sometimes a very faint glow called “earthshine” can make the unlit portion of the new moon subtly visible. This is due to sunlight reflecting off the Earth and onto the Moon. * Solar Eclipses: New moons are the only phase during which a solar eclipse can occur. This happens when the new moon passes directly between the Sun and Earth, and the Moon’s shadow falls on Earth. However, a solar eclipse will not occur on April 27th, 2025. * Stargazing: The dark skies during the new moon phase provide the best conditions for observing faint stars, galaxies, and other deep-sky objects since there is no bright moonlight to interfere. * Tides: New moons (along with full moons) contribute to higher high tides and lower low tides, known as spring tides, due to the combined gravitational pull of the Sun and the Moon.So, while you won’t be able to see the new moon itself on April 27th from the west coast of North America, you will have a dark sky perfect for stargazing!
Peace and security was on the table for consideration over the last week.
Easter celebrations gave hope for traditional renewal in spring rites, the death of a Pope reminded us of the limits of our opportunities in our own lives to make a difference, to spend some time and enjoyment and to spread whatever goodness we find in ourselves to others.
Earth day yawned a wink at us as clocks ran on. History blew a wisp of what was and is and is to come.
And you my friend, you gave me the opportunity to share another day.
Spring in BC, Snow pack is up from 2024. Life is good for most…good luck,stay safe.
British Columbia experiences a varied climate during spring, with weather conditions ranging from mild to cool depending on the region. Coastal areas, like Vancouver, typically enjoy moderate temperatures averaging between 10-15°C (50-59°F), accompanied by increased rainfall, particularly in March and April. In contrast, the interior regions, such as Kelowna, can see warmer temperatures, often reaching 15-20°C (59-68°F) with less precipitation. Snow can still be present in the mountainous areas, while wildlife begins to emerge, and flora starts to bloom, leading to a vibrant and dynamic environment. Be prepared for fluctuating temperatures and pack layers to adjust to sudden changes.
Best Ways to Use Late Season Fresh Snow for Skiing in BC
Skiing on late-season fresh snow in British Columbia can be an exhilarating experience. Here are some tips to make the most out of those conditions:
1. Choose the Right Ski Area
Opt for higher elevation slopes where fresh snow is more likely to stick around longer. Areas like Whistler Blackcomb and Revelstoke often have great late-season conditions.
2. Timing is Key
Ski during the mornings when the snow is still fresh and untouched. The sun can quickly change the snow’s texture later in the day.
3. Stay Flexible with Your Plans
Conditions can vary day by day, so be ready to adjust your skiing plans based on the latest snow reports and weather forecasts.
4. Explore Off-Piste Terrain
Late-season snow can create exciting off-piste opportunities. Just make sure to check avalanche conditions and ski with a buddy in more challenging areas.
5. Focus on Technique
Take advantage of the softer snow by practicing your carving and turning techniques. This can improve your skills while enjoying the fresh powder.
6. Use the Right Gear
Ensure your skis are equipped for soft snow. Skis with wider waists will offer better floatation and control.
7. Hydrate and Rest
Spring skiing can be more taxing due to warmer temperatures. Stay hydrated, take breaks, and don’t forget to apply sunscreen.
8. Celebrate the Warm Weather
Embrace the warmer weather by dressing in layers. This allows for comfort as temperatures fluctuate throughout the day.
9. Enjoy the Scenery
Late season offers stunning views with longer daylight hours. Take some time to appreciate the beautiful surroundings of BC.
10. Join a Ski Clinic or Lesson
Improve your skills while learning to navigate late-season conditions by participating in a ski clinic or taking lessons.
Enjoy the late-season skiing and make the most of the fresh snow while it lasts!

Lilies are beautiful aquatic plants that thrive in ponds, offering stunning blooms and vital habitat for wildlife; their broad leaves provide shade and shelter, while their striking flowers attract pollinators such as bees and butterflies. The culture of the pond is interlinked with these plants, as they enhance the ecosystem by oxygenating the water and mitigating algae growth, creating a balanced environment that supports fish and other aquatic organisms. In many cultures, lilies symbolize purity and beauty, making them popular in garden designs and water features, often bringing serenity and aesthetic appeal to outdoor spaces.
