@MarkConnollyCBC When I was a kid my favourite book series was Eric Wilson’s detective books set in Canadian locations. So I was super excited about Code Red at the Supermall -a mystery at the mall! I went to the release at WEM, met the author, and did a big scavenger hunt around the mall. Fun!
Meet Willa Holmes. The 14 year-old from #yeg has written a novel (and working on 2 more!), she self-published it, self-marketed it, and it's now at @chaptersindigo with a signing later today at the South Edmonton Common branch! Tune in now for my conversation with her.
I’m extremely impressed by my colleague @knako’s daughter Willa. She wrote a dystopian novel & has a book signing this Saturday, March 18 from 11-5 at South Edmonton Common Indigo. Stop by, say hello, buy a book, get it signed. Congrats, Willa!!! #yeg#yegwriters#localauthor 📖

@dougmclean15@AndrewKnack Great call, Doug! The 13th ave Coffee House’s Lucky Bowl was my go-to lunch. Many good times on their patio and then ice cream at @DessartSweets just down the block.
@tedkouri Smart. Labour-based tax incentives, similar those already in place for film and TV production across Canada and in the majority of US states, could be applied to private businesses and NFP organizations. Incentivize keeping employees on the payroll and off EI during the recovery
@CBCradiotara @MarkConnollyCBC @EdmAMCBC My dad’s #WordsOfWisdom for any minor injury:
Me: “it hurts when I do this” (wiggles injured arm/leg/finger)
Dad: “...then don’t do that!”
And he was a family physician! Always made me laugh which was the best medicine.
@dabo114 Easy: Just hop on the gondola, take the Funicular transfer, then hop on the shirtless-rollerblading-guitar-guy and you're at Jasper and 104 in no time!!
