@_SHRF_ @usask @usask_OVDR Thank you so much. I am honored to have received this award from an important organization that strongly supports health research!

@MitoCopper Growing up in small town Sask with two channels, we all had to suffer through watching a brutal Leafs team each HNIC. Those were the days of great Oilers and later Jets (my team) and Flames. So everyone started cheering against the Leafs....

@daniellou_r Hey Richard yes I did! It's my lucky rod and I caught 1000 fish with it!

[Christopher Phenix @CP_Phenix]

Feeling so lucky to be Canadian! My grandpa bought this cabin after WWII. Lucky to have it. The cabins were built along the CN rail. Took my family out fishing this morning and caught this beauty. Let it go to make more baby fish!

@MitoCopper @KirstyDuncanMP I should at this is a great start!

[Christopher Phenix @CP_Phenix]

@MitoCopper @KirstyDuncanMP My mother called her MP to request that Canada does a better job funding science. I believe we rank 2nd last in all OCED countries and need to do better! And not more funding to train more and more students when their is a need for stable employment in academic labs.

@DavePalmerUSask Thanks Dave appreciate it! Everyone loves bioorganic chemistry!

[Christopher Phenix @CP_Phenix]

@MitoCopper @USaskChem Thanks Scot! We have a great team of scientist, world-class infrastructure at the Cyclotron and strong support from @_SHRF_. Looking forward to seeing what we can do with out agents!

@MitoCopper @Raptors @Klow7 The part of modern pro sports I really dislike. I understand the logic, but players commited to the team and city/country, who show leadership, consistent great play and are well liked by teamates and fans should be kept if possible. Unless the trade is way too good to pass up.

@MitoCopper Need one for my wife's side of the bed ;)

[Christopher Phenix @CP_Phenix]

@DavePalmerUSask @tfkahan @PamDowne Haha yup. At my first CSC conference 2002 in Vancouver. Professors Majewski and Ward watched me dethrone the UBC graduate student beer 🍺 champion. Everyone has a talent....

[Christopher Phenix @CP_Phenix]

@MitoCopper Agreed! After a lengthy celebration, my buddy and I are doubling home on my bicycle. Campus security followed us weaving around until we finally crashed. Me in my suit and Dale on top of me, security rolls up and asks if we are ok: buddy say yes he just got his PHd! They laugh.

@MitoCopper Looks great man! Homemade sourdough pizza here!

[Christopher Phenix @CP_Phenix]

@tfkahan Thanks Tara! No doubt discouraging especially considering I was often filming extra tutorials and practice material, even for other instructors sections, instead of taking care of the boys haha. That said, I feel super bad for the students remote learning cannot be easy.

[Christopher Phenix @CP_Phenix]

@MitoCopper @ghorsmano @JorgensonDerek Sounds good. Once these vaccines come out and Covid levels start to drop it's a date!

[Christopher Phenix @CP_Phenix]

So my wife has many talents! Cake making is one of them. My son Jake turned 9 on the 2nd and Zac turned 12 today. Happy birthday boys. She did a great job (I did the bacon and volcano :)).

[Christopher Phenix @CP_Phenix]

@MitoCopper Ha! Honestly I would last one day on that schedule unlike the old days. Seriously interesting times.

[Christopher Phenix @CP_Phenix]

My wife is so organized she had the boys new "home school" and her work schedule up on the wall. I added mine later after serious deliberation.
