Great newsletter Diane.

Each morning when I wake up the first thing I think about is Ukraine and the utter destruction and devastation they are experiencing from the Russian hordes. It damages my soul to bear witness to this as I’m sure it does to you. To think that the IOC hasn't banned Russia from the Paris Olympics is grotesque. I don’t want one Russian to participate, no neutral flag, no nothing. You have a Russian passport you don’t participate. Period.

(I realize I’m way off topic when you are talking about Europe’s Israel but I had to get this off my chest. This daily slaughter of Ukraine is taking a toll on me as I’m sure it is for everyone.)

Excellent..I feel ashamed as a Canadian with our lack of responsibility towards providing our share..we talk the talk..but frankly our military is mainly visible making sand bag barriers during floods..so many generals, so few troop, so little useful equipment, and utterly no direction...no focus..other NATO members have adopted focussed strategies and are good at their chosen roles..we are inept clowns
