Editor's Note: Happy Autumn to everyone! September always feels to me like the time to rev up our engines after a summertime that goes at a slightly slower pace. But clearly it wasn't all leisure for some of the residents of our vertical neighbourhood -- we've got a first time author and newlyweds in our... Continue Reading →
Letter from the editor There is an admonition in journalism to 'never bury the lede'. In other words, get to the point at the top of your story. This month the lede is our neighbours' celebration of 50 years together! The summertime edition of A Letter from George is packed with good music and great... Continue Reading →
A letter from the editor When you receive this edition of the Letter from George, it's hard to know if you will need the biggest puffer jacket, or your spring bonnet! While I enjoy all the seasons we have in this country -- I am definitely looking forward to longer days and warmer weather. One... Continue Reading →
Letter from the editor The holiday season is upon us -- a time that should be of family and joy. I typically write this note just ahead of publication, which for this edition is Sunday morning.

I was happy to see the snow...though quite a bit less happy to see how unfamilliar snow-clearing has become for... Continue Reading →

Editor's Letter Everyone has a favourite season. Mine is without a doubt the autumn. I love the crisp mornings, and the sense of renewed energy I feel at this time of year. I know this isn't true for everyone, that instead the fall feels like a harbinger of the darkness winter brings. Fortunately, the contributors... Continue Reading →
As the summer solstice approaches, and we take the cover off the barbeque, it can be a time to celebrate the expansiveness the season brings.
