WINTER

 So far, CANADA garnered 7 MEDALS at the MILANO CORTINA 2026 WINTER OLYMPIC GAMES. Keep your hopes high Canada!! More games to follow.

NORWAY still on TOP ONE. Winter Sports are actually Norwegians way of life. They are the VIKINGS. ITALY on second place. Canada on Top 11. Canada never been ranked 11th. Canada always on Top 3, 5 never below Top 10. It's okay the Olympic games not over yet.

Canada 's top sports have something to do with the long Winter Season. We have the best athletes for Winter Sports, because we live closer to the North Pole. Just that winter sports and winter games are too costly for some families unlike basketball, tennis, soccer and baseball. You know what I mean?

Where so many people living in four seasons were cursing about how cold and how bad the weather is. Complaints about ice and snow. Oh well, wait for spring and summer how hot would it be. During winter you can breathe better while at summer can you breathe properly? If your homes have air condition yeah maybe no worries. How many wildfires had people from different walks of life had last year and from the past years where they were evacuated, suffered and lost their homes? How those wildfires had many people got sick of asthma, severe cough, lung problems, and breathing problems, etc. They lost their homes, they became homeless. Any news wherein people lost their homes from snow? None. 

THERE'S NO PLACE LIKE HOME

 Prime Minister of Canada - Mark Carney is promoting the Rideau Skateway Rink in Ottawa which is the world's largest skating rink ever!  It is also the longest skating rink. Great!

It would be nice if we have something like that too here, but we don't receive that much amount of snow during Winter. You could probably have a pond or your swimming pool dumped with thick snow and just flatten it smoothly to accommodate would be skaters in your community. Oh, there is a skating rink for hockey game in Strathcona but I doubt that you can have it for public skating. The only thing that's exciting about skating during Winter is when it is done outside in a wide  open space with limitless capacity for skaters.

From what I heard, Mount Washington Resort is open since two weeks ago and blessed with so much powder of snow for skiing, cross-country skiing, snowboarding, sled, tobogganing, etc. Cable cars are functioning well. The fresh hot cup of coffee and hot coco with marshmallows always refreshing and give you much energy for the task at hand. It is the best Winter Resort in Vancouver island and the scenic view is spectacular. 

CANADA already named the hockey players for HOCKEY TEAM CANADA to compete in the CORTINA, ITALY -WINTER OLYMPIC GAMES. Of course the multi-talented Sydney Crosby will be there (Currently plays for Pittsburgh Penguins) , David McConnor also in his team (who plays for Edmonton Oilers) and some other Canadian hockey players. Did they mention Bedard? 

OTHER NEWS:

She'll be missed by her family and loved ones. R.I.P. God bless you for all the many causes you do for Climate Change and the Protection of the Environment. Deepest sympathy to the Kennedy, Schlossberg Family. 🙏

Hollywood actor George Clooney & lawyer Amal Clooney and their two children were granted Citizenship in France. Why they had chosen France? I don't know. I first thought they like Italy. 

Too many celebrities would rather live out from Hollywood and out from the USA because of political reasons or they cannot stand the politics in their own country. Rosie O'Donnel migrated to Ireland. Many Americans will do the same way if they are unhappy in their own country seeking peaceful retreat in other countries. 

But you know what? THERE'S NO PLACE LIKE HOME.

WELCOME NEW YEAR 2026!

HAPPY NEW YEAR TO ALL!

WHAT'S NEW?

 Isn't that weird that the CORTINA OLYMPIC GAMES in ITALY is more like in a  "silent mode?" Canada hasn't provide more information who are Canada's athletes who will compete in the Winter Olympic Games on February 2026.

Unlike when we had the famous duo dance ice skate partners Shailene Bourne & Victor Kratz and the very popular Tessa Virtue & Scott Moir... Canada is always in the news in every competition.

Who knows could be a huge surprise. 

It seems that Canada is not into the Winter Olympics Games.

When CANADA is a country in the North and we get more ice and snow during Winter Season. It could be that when a country is populated by humans who are not loving winter season and they tend to seek the warm climate. Over population could change the climate from cold to hot and that also lessen the volume of water flow.

You know how you can change the climate? You have to be a genius like EINSTEIN.

TRY THERMODYNAMICS.

Looking forward to watch the new movie PROJECT HAIL MARY.
