O Canada – We the North

Today, we make history here in Toronto by hosting the NBA champion playoffs. The playoffs have never gone North but now they have and in a few short hours Toronto will have their shot at basketball stardom.

Canada is a great place to visit as well as to live. The multicultural feel of this wonderful city Toronto is great from the support of the basketball fans to the average people on an average day.

I love this city. It is my home and I’ve lived here all my life. Sure it has its fair share of problems small and not so small, but all things aside we can stand together when the time is right. And the time is now. Where do you see in this great continent different races, cultures, ages, people of different languages come together to celebrate one thing?

No where but Toronto. There is nothing like Toronto.

This is our chance to shine as a international city with so many options, so many things to see, to do and to celebrate. We are a city of plenty and we like to share. Come visit. Cheer us on while we play our neighbour to the south in the NBA playoffs and see if you like us.

What’s there not to like?

Problem with Social Media?

What is wrong with Social Media? Not enough time…

There is a big problem with social media today – not enough time.  Sure I started this blog with high hopes to continue.  I had topics and pics lined up and I was ready to go until…life happened. Yes, I do procrastinate but who doesn’t and now three years later I am sitting here with more things to do with my life but here I am finally writing.  Better later then never ever doing anything.

My inspiration was the course I started online from Northwestern University about Social Media.  It is excellent.  I highly recommend it to anyone with an interest in marketing and social media @Coursera.org.

And just so I can make things straight my Etsy shop is up and running again.

Refresh your home

Spring is a great time to start fresh by refreshing your home.  According to Real Estate agent Doug Stewart of Shanahan Realtor Inc, spring is one of  most busy times of the year for buying and selling a home.  While this past year mortgage rates are making it a little easier on the pocket to ask for financing, still money maybe tight and selling may not be an option at this time.   There are simple things you can do to improve your home and at the same time add some value to the property.
