I did make some accomplishment yesterday on the Siderfin Companion Charting Book and I am up to Page 92 so about 3/4s of the way through. More work today on that for sure. We are promised snow and I will believe it when I see it. We have had a little dusting most mornings when I get up.
The election looks like it is nearly complete in the United States and the GOP are in place everywhere - the White House, Congress and the Supreme Court. This is a great time to introduce efficiency and I wish we would here. The government is inefficient - CRA lost millions again. We do need to get efficiency back in and in general the Conservatives are the efficient party but Pierre Poilievre is an untried leader and does not have the strength of a Brian Mulroney but I would like to be proven wrong in that regard. He gets into social conservative issues and they are just dead in the water. We do not want to hash and rehash conservative social issues. Unless people are breaking the law by abusing someone then we should stay out of it. There are enough people in the world already that we do not have to worry about that although personally I find abortion purely for personal reasons that do not extend to the safety of the mother/baby to be just sad but I believe it is the right of every woman to determine her own destiny.
I think Canada and the United States make a great team but we need to pull our weight more by getting the military properly equipped and encouraging enlistment with a good retirement package. We basically ask for 24 hours of every day of these people's lives for a good period of time and there should be a benefit for them. The Americans give free university/college education to their military after serving. There is a lot to think about in that regard. But definitely we need to be at 2% or better up to 4% of GDP for our military spending yearly.
More thinking on the Blake family records back in the 1300s and how I can research them in the Andover area. I need to read the Manor Books where they are available and have only glimpsed at them where I noted the surname Blake present.
Tea time and then breakfast followed by Latin. The day precedes.
