Among all respondents across Canada, 37 per cent said they would like to be a dual citizen — having citizenship in two countries at the same time — while 47 per cent said they’re not interested and 16 per cent didn’t answer.

An Alberta judge has divided up a group of cats between two feuding former spouses, saying neither gets to keep all of them because – in Alberta at least – pets aren’t the same as kids and legally shouldn’t be treated as such.“Parenthood and pet ownership should not be conflated,” Justice Douglas Mah said in a written judgment last month in a case registered in Fort McMurray.

Over the past few months, the Justin Trudeau-Katy Perry relationship has played out like a symphony.
The build-up began innocently enough: pictures of the former prime minister and the American singer-songwriter walking casually in Mount Royal Park in Montreal this past July when Perry, fresh off a breakup with actor Orlando Bloom, was in town for her Lifetimes Tour. Then, that same evening, came a shift in variation: the pair was photographed in the city’s swanky Le Violon restaurant. The tempo quickened. Were they friends? Was it a business dinner?

A flag is certain the wind admires it
—the breeze flaunting it so its crowns, leaves, crosses,
bands of colour, or stars float in air,
ready to be honoured, deferred to. In turn the flag
