Sitting here exhausted, but very pleased with today's foraging run! The highlight of today's outing was actually catching harvest season for the wild strawberry for the first time in years! This weekend, we are at Schubert Centre for their summer market, then we are back at the Rutland Flea Market. We've purchased a 4ft folding table that we hope will be big enough to handle a tighter version of the layout we had at Lumby Days. The Lumby Days Indoor Craft Fair blew our socks off! The way the Lumby Days booth setup looked, we are becoming a veritable roving wildcrafted tea parlor with a side of medical insight to help people make choices that benefit their situations. Several times so far this spring, and several times at both major fairs this month, we've been asked if we have a storefront. As of yet, we do not, but we realize that if sales continue as they are, we will be in need of more processing space that can allow for a foodsafe kitchen, processing area, and expanded drying area so we can expand available quantities of the teas we offer, and potentially branch into other wildcrafted goods for sale. If you are reading this and you are in the Central Okanagan region, and if you believe you know someone who might help in some way, drop us a line with that information. https://naturalhealthgodsway.ca/2025/06/18/foraging-tea-sales-and-long-term-conundrum/

Becoming ‘AI-ready’: U of T’s task force on artificial intelligence releases recommendations The University of Toronto’s artificial intelligence task force has released several high-level recommendations aimed at making the university an “AI-ready” institution while upholding its core missions and values. From teaching and research to student services and administration, the Task Force on Artificial Intelligence’s final report seeks to position U of T as a post-secondary leader in judiciously implementing this transformative technology. The report’s human-centric approach includes four broad recommendations: build AI knowledge and expertise across the university; create AI-ready infrastructure, including an “AI Kitchen” where projects can be safely and securely developed; establish AI response teams to provide technical and administrative support; and form an AI adoption advisory table to guide planning and decision-making.

Sanders’ recent "Fighting Oligarchy" tour paints a very different picture. While crisscrossing the country decrying the evils of capitalism, Sanders traveled by—you guessed it—private jet. According to a new analysis from Power The Future, the senator’s 16-stop tour spewed an estimated 62.15 metric tons of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere. To put in context, that’s more than the average American produces in five years. In fact, Sanders’ emissions from just one tour equal the annual emissions from 15 gasoline-powered cars. It’s the carbon equivalent to driving a gas-powered SUV 150,000 miles, or more than 6 times around the Earth at the equator. And this from a man who wants to regulate what kind of stove you use in your kitchen. https://www.zerohedge.com/political/mile-high-marxist-bernie-sanders-proves-there-no-climate-emergency

How sad. I hope Bobby Kennedy can put a stop to this and start preparing HEALTHY meals for American children in school . . . A few decades ago, many U.S. school cafeterias prepared meals from scratch for hundreds of students each day. As years passed, some kitchen staff watched fresh ingredients like flour and eggs disappear, replaced by boxes of pre-packaged, processed foods.​ https://www.zerohedge.com/medical/us-last-lunch-line

That Giant Flushing Sound Yes, that’s the sound of President Trump directing the EPA and Department of Energy to reverse nearly every Biden regulation on home appliances and fixtures – everything from toilets to lawnmowers – in one big beautiful executive order that he signed on Day One, and reminded his EPA administrator yesterday to move quickly to implement: Now you only have to flush once. Now you can take a real shower and not wait to trickle down. No longer will the nanny state tell you what kind of car you can put in your garage, what kind of lawn mower, weed wacker, or sprinkler you can use on your lawn, what kind of light bulb you can put in your lamps, what kind of stove or dishwasher you can use in your kitchen. These were supposed to save energy and money, but instead they caused a consumer backlash. Here’s a partial list of the appliances that will be liberated from regulations either finalized or proposed under Biden: Gas Stoves Ovens Light Bulbs Cars Clothes Washers Refrigerators Freezers Air Conditioners Dishwashers Pool Pumps Battery Chargers Ceiling Fans Dehumidifiers Microwave Ovens Portable Electric Spas Air Compressors Water Heaters Furnaces Free. Free at last!

Those who assume investors target big cities are absolutely correct. Out of the ten largest CMAs, the highest concentration was in London, ON where 85.5% of condos are investor-owned. The top three are rounded out with Windsor (64.4%) and Kitchener-Cambridge-Waterloo (60.7%). It’s worth noting all three of those markets are typically considered college cities. That can be a problem with the shift in student policies. https://betterdwelling.com/ontarios-big-cities-saw-investors-buy-up-to-85-of-condos-fueled-by-gov-incentives/
