Where have the polar bears gone

Being that I call Toronto home, I found myself talking about how mild this winter has been and how great that has been. But the fact remains that this isn’t necessarily a good thing in the large scheme of things either. The world is changing, and therein, getting warmer. And as lovely as it may be for those of us Canadians who have bore the brunt of -45 degrees celsius, habitats around the world and the animals that call them home are having to adapt or disappear altogether. Recently we partnered with Polar Ice Vodka on their #SaveOurSeaIce campaign in support of Polar Bears International to shed some light on this alarming fact. And yes, there IS something we can do about it.  Continue reading “Where have the polar bears gone”

We moved a lot when I was younger because we followed the opportunities that my parents had in their careers.

On Saturday, February 18 (From 8 a.m. to 9 a.m.) you’re going to want to head to the Rideau Canal Skateway for CIBC’s Shinny Hockey Day!

Why we could all use a little refresh

I like to think that the winter months define us as Canadians. However, in light of those cold nights and lack of sunshine, I also know that we all could use a little refresh right about now. You’ll have seen that recently I had the chance to join my fellow #DiscoverPC members to rejuvenate myself inside and out thanks to both President’s Choice® & Joe Fresh to makeover my work day from food choices to the outfits I wear. Come and see how you too can find inspiration to refresh your day-to-day life with a few simple changes!
