I am happy to announce that this painting; Symbiosis 38, has won juror’s award of excellence in the 149th Open Juried Exhibition showcasing at John B. Aird Gallery April 6 – May 4 Thanks to Ontario Society of Artists Artist and the valued jurors’ statement regarding this piece
When I quit CBC 3 years ago I got messages from people asking "what's really going on there", insinuating both gov't and outside influence on journalism. They expected me to reveal some conspiracy that wasn't there. Some people have a real weird fantasy about that organization.

First time enjoying Concierto de Aranjuez live. I know this piece note by note by heart, and when the performance started, I couldn't stop my tears. Bravo Juan Manuel Cañizares and @TorontoSymphony!
When asked how he relates to Station Eleven by @EmilyMandel, @MichaelGreyeyes said, "Indigenous people have already survived an apocalypse...Dystopias are familiar territory." The actor emphasized the book's resolve to turn away from despair in pursuit of hope. #CanadaReads

ما که بواسطه‌ی شبکه‌های اجتماعی در راه این مبارزه، به اشتباه، دشنه در سینه یکدیگر فرو می‌کنیم، اگر امکانی برای گفتگوی رودررو می‌داشتیم، بعد از کمی معاشرت احتمالا همدیگر را در آغوش می‌گرفتیم. تایپ کردن، همه چیز نیست، و یکی از دشواری‌های مبارزه با استبداد همین است. #IranRevolution

I couldn’t agree more. While CPC MP’s were actively encouraging anti-vaxxers, the convoy and people who were blocking borders, PM @JustinTrudeau took action, and saved lives and livelihoods. The CPC wants us to forget this. As Canadians, we cannot
PM @JustinTrudeau will never get enough credit for decisive action in the Pandemic. Lives, jobs, and the economy were saved. But the Far Right never fails to sell alternate reality, their hate fantasy, the big lie, that the PM wants to harm a country he loves.
