World Pride

Let’s reconnect our community

Last night I volunteered for a really fabulous queer event here in Calgary. When you think of Calgary, you may not think ‘Canadian queer central’, and compared to cities like Vancouver and Toronto it isn’t. What it does have that I find many larger cities lack, is a sense of cohesiveness and camaraderie that seems […]

When I am not busy protecting families with Life & Critical Illness insurance, I host a radio show on a Toronto radio station every Saturday night, and last week I played a song that got me thinking about what I do every day and why. The punch line to the song is “You’ve got to […]

Men’s Rights Groups Have Got It Wrong

So, my Facebook page doesn’t see a lot of action from others, only posts from yours truly, usually proudly proclaiming my love of my new found singlehood, or perhaps showcasing the talents of any writer on Autostraddle.com. Well, to my astonishment (and perhaps deepest desire), posting an article on Men’s Rights Organization CAFE’s latest billboard […]

Financial fitness in 2015………easier than you think

posted Monday, January 26, 2015

by: in Finance / Insurance

It’s a new year, a time of renewal, a time when many of us make resolutions, and set fresh goals. Whether your new year’s resolution involves losing weight, paying down or paying off debt, quitting smoking, or saving for retirement, resolutions not backed by solid plans of action are merely pipe dreams. I encourage everyone […]

They are upon us, the Dog Days of Summer–you can feel it in the air. That lazy time of year where everything slows down, the heat leaving you barely enough energy to lounge on your porch or balcony and sip a cool beverage, preferably one with mint. Originally coined by the Romans, according to Wikipedia, […]

Assuming Can Cause Disaster

If you love at least one person, you need life insurance. Life insurance is essentially money which can replace lost income and secure the financial future of the ones you love in the event of your passing away. It is one of the building blocks of a solid financial plan to ensure that the ones […]

Last Dance, Last Chance for Love

The last dance has been danced. The last glitter has been tossed and the last remnants of our Gay Christmas has been swept up. WorldPride is officially over. What a party it was! We had LGBTQ+ activists, parade participants and partiers from every corner of the world. It was a literary, artistic, cultural, entertainment and human […]

The Dance of Community

by: in Spirituality

So here I am missing Pride while I am over in the UK honouring a spiritual commitment. Once-a-year near the Summer Solstice, I venture across the sea to join in a similar community event with a project called the Sacred Fire Community (you can check them out at www.sacredfirecommunity.org). All the folks in the UK […]

Do you need to pay yourself first?

by: in Finance / Insurance

We all know someone or know of someone who has been affected directly or indirectly by life threatening conditions including cancer. In fact statistics indicate that more and more Canadians (including children) are being diagnosed with cancer on a daily basis. Walks, rides, and runs aimed at raising money to fund cancer research are more […]

Pride

by: in Ponderings

  Did you know that Pride is considered one of the Seven Deadly Sins? According to some religious texts it is the deadliest of sins. It is represented by the peacock, an animal considered by most to be vain. I find this most intriguing. Those of us who have looked long and hard into the […]
