The last day of June...




Oh I know there are some that I missed as after I had visited with two doctors, I had the mindset to do something more.

I went to the CBC as there is a story within that which I will come too. As well, I had to do some other things but while doing it I went to this one place in that I have heard so much about since I have returned here and it's called ....I forget the name right now but some of the most influencial R and B performers have been here including the likes James Brown - not kidding, as my cousin's daugher whom now is working in Washington DC went to see him there Tammy was the public relations rep., of this place and as well I have to email the CBC as they thought I may have been the competition you have to say people do think too much these days.

However despite two things that I have to get done medically and I will not be waiting long for it as so many have indicated within the Canadian Medical System. While I may wait for a week maybe two. I look forward to writing on the celebration of Canada Day and a few days later Unted States Birthday.

For me there are the stars and stripes and as well as there is the red maple leaf with bars. Are we that much different yes and no.

But within these pictures was my day, and I look forward to going further with this as I residing within Canada Do wish to write about what Canada is.

Not what so many think it is...

Yet it's a democratic country that has a foundation that is what it is as with any other nation.


Peace...

    The CBC has stations all over each and every place within Canada - the largest is in Toronto which is the headquarters but this was neat as well and I had to get on the phone to get the allowance to take these pictures go figure - but it was enjoyable.

    This is the radio station portion of the building Amy.

    if you look at the website www.cbc.ca you will see that it is the logo for the canadian broadcasting system.

    Yep if I was in New York I would get ABC and if in Georgia I would love to get CNN - could you imagine! But it would be much much more difficult.
    As this is not a huge station as it is in Toronto and I have been there.

  48. Initiative StainJune 30, 2009 at 5:10 PM

    Actually there are four television stations and within this province this city is really a secondary to another major city so I was surprised that the television cameras were as out dated as they were. I just talk nicely :)

    It's an old bank that was turned into a major jazz place, they did not have the keys to turn the lights on within the place and it's called the Odeon.
    Many old musicians that slowly get there chops going do a small tour and then make it larger - this has seen several of them including the likes of James Brown and many others.
    It was not here three years ago and while I was down town I saw that the door was open and I thought I would ponder in and it was fun.

    Yes it's within a downtown shopping center and it connects what is known as the Scotia bank to the center - it used to be an old bank and it's great they kept this part intact.

    Thank you ironically right this minute it's just starting to pour again.
    This is on the street that I live and in the summer it's all lush and all the trees right around town are protected by the city.
    So they are not lovely weeping willows like one finds on the east coast but I love them.

    I like it placed this way as I have been thinking on what an how to write it but really I don't believe in borders and within these two countries we have a grand history and this week we all in our own ways celebrate our very freedoms which we have shared.
