Well Nicky was not feeling well for the last 3 days and he obviously had some stomach issues.
He has a very delicate digestive system and anything can trigger a malaise. Last night he was very sick and I took him to the Animal Veterinary Hospital of the University of PEI. They are always open 24/7, though for a fee. The service is excellent and you get a Vet with experience and a fourth year student who is doing their practicum learning with the professional vet. Nicky got some blood work done and all was fine. He then got a shot to stop the nausea and he came home. This morning he was a little tired but he is bouncing back. For a thirteen year old he is doing fine. We do worry about them.
Earlier in the day I had meeting at the Club to plan the Friday party with lots of VIPs. At the same time the surge in Covid cases on the Island in schools amongst kids under 12 is worrisome. However what we see now is those who are not vaccinated are getting sick. Since 90% of the Island population is fully vaccinated those who get sick, the unvaccinated, really stand out. We have 22 cases which is not much and testing is going full blast in the last two days. So we should get to the bottom of this pretty soon.
Violence on the campaign is on the rise, one candidate was assaulted in his Office yesterday by a women, the PM got rocks thrown at him, his wife was called a whore by some idiot macho guy. Signs have been defaced with swastikas and the rise of the extreme right wing People’s Party (PPC) of white supremacist is difficult to believe, but they are at 7% in the polls right now. We have never seen this in a Canadian Federal Election before. Only 4 days to go before voting day 20 September.
Dear Larry, I hope Nicky is feeling better, all the best Martin & Muppet.

Doux Jésus, une pancréatite; je croyais que c’était toi qui était entré d’urgence à l’hôpital!
Le PPC du démon Bernier est une honte nationale, mais aussi un baromètre: il montre bien ce dont les Canadiens sont capables et il identifie les vipères qui pondent leurs œufs remplis de haine et d’un désir maladif de copier les pires excès du GOP américain et de son héros, tRump. Le parti Con (comme j’aime cette abréviation) rassemble un bon nombre de ces fanatiques; voter Con consiste donc à porter au pouvoir ces nazis en herbe. N’oublions pas que derrière le sourire d’O’Toole, il y a tout une équipe qui aimerait bien se retrouver avec un régime du type Poutine ou Orban.
J’ai déjà voté. J’ai fait ça par la poste: super facile.

So glad Nicky is doing better. Poor boy. Do you think your politics (and the idiotic behavior) is a result of what’s going on in the States? That nightmare seems to be having an effect around the world.

Yes Nicky is doing better we have had such incidents in the past, delicate stomach, he is a show dog after all. Lots of drama. In answer to your question, no doubt we have our load of idiots who admire Trump, they are the same people who hate anyone who is not white and christian. Hate immigrants, Quebec, believe in a Free Lunch and claim they love the armed Forces and are anti abortion and anti-vax. But a lot of it is home grown with its own parochial Canadian attitudes. Though they have been encouraged by the Conservative party and the right wing People’s Party. They think it is ok to assault people. Unfortunately our mainstream political parties have been very slow to react to them and the police in general just stand back.

Yes the elections last night results did give us more or less the same Parliament as before. Prime Minister Trudeau will continue as Government Leader and that is a good thing. He was offering a progressive view and programs that families wanted. It is still a minority Government with 158 seats but other progressive parties like the NDP and the Bloc will support his government. So it is all good.
