here we go. new site, new audience
I wonder what your Canadien relatives would think of my good family friend Bob Rae who is currently the Ambassador to the UN from Canada (Appointed by Trudeau-was friends and served under his dad). Mom went to High school in Geneva with Bob, and we've been family friends since. Bob was former Premier of Ontario and was called a commie many times, they used to call certain days in Ontario "Rae days." He's an incredibly smart and humble man, got to see him over Christmas in NC when he was driving from NYC at some UN meeting to his florida home on the beach. He stopped and shared stories and pics of him with the Dalai Lama, Obama and the Pope. Amazingly still spry and active in his mid 70's (mom graduated Ecolont in Geneva 1966 with Bob). He's a great spokesman for Canada.
Anyway, have fun messing with the Quebecois Canucks side of the family. I used to travel to Canada every month for work (and hated the winters in Alberta, Sasketchewan, Manitoba---armpit of Canada). I do miss Canada in the summer. I went to a Calgary AAA game in August and it snowed 6 inches years ago...my old VP or sales was a catcher up there in AAA and said they had 3-4 snow delays or cancels every July/August. Drive safe and cash those parlays.
