Thanks Eaton's

A nostalgic look through a 1959 Eaton's Christmas Catalogue.  I am not the copyright owner of the song Toyland written by Victor Herbert and Glen MacDonough and sung here by Doris Day. I will not receive any monetary compensation for the time it took me to put this little production together or by displaying it here. However, due to the current laws and YouTube regulations, this video will NOT be able to be viewed in some countries. I apologize for that. I would appreciate if you could take a moment of your time to leave a brief comment to let me know: 1) Is the video viewable to your or not? 2) Is just the sound muted? 3) What is your geographical location? 4) On what platform did you find this? ie: Facebook, YouTube, Dog On A Root etc. I mean Eaton's nor the copyright owners of this song no disrespect. I present them here together in this little production for the enjoyment of those like me who have a fond nostalgic memory of this time and to honor Eaton's annual traditio...

Pot Calls The Kettle Black

Pot Calls The Kettle Black - jim Young “Our peaceful trading partners are not our enemies, they are our allies. We should beware of the demagogues who are ready to declare a trade war against our friends, weakening our economy, our national security and the entire free world - all while cynically waving the American flag.” - Ronald Reagan, 1988 Trump called an anti-tariff advertisement, recently produced by the Ontario Government, a “fraud” and accused Canada of trying to “illegally influence the United States Supreme Court”, which will meet in a couple of weeks to decide if Trump’s tariff’s are constitutional. Really Trump? Pot? Kettle? Black? Does any of that ring a bell to you? But if Canada can do anything to help the United States Supreme Court come to a fair and just decision, then I say… more power to Canada. After seeing the advertisement for the first time, Trump had commented, “If I was Canada I would take that ad also.” Now, as a Canadian I would normally take a statemen...
