To my Canadian friends, this one is for you.
To my American friends, please don’t take offense.
To my friends in other countries, do you empathize with us?
Thanks to Trump, Canada has come together like never before. We are bonding faster and making new friends easily. On the nightly news, people are interviewed at the grocery store promoting Canadian-made items and declaring they won’t buy American. Even if they have to pay more attention, spending time reading labels, or if items are harder to find, they accept the task to buy only Canadian.
When you drive down the street, you see large signs declaring their business is Canadian, and lots of Canadian flags are flying on their roofs. Every business who proclaims themselves Canadian are making themselves more popular.
My novel Murder at the Canadian National Exhibition is completely Canadian. I discuss the Group of Seven, the fried foods at the CNE, an Indigenous artist, the Toronto Maple Leafs, the Art Gallery of Ontario, and becoming a Snowbird.
But, since I have travelled the world, I also include many stories occurring in other countries. If you’re from Belgium, you will find a few stories about your country. Frankenmuth, Michigan, is a popular spot to go. I wrote a few stories about Australia and England.
But it’s a mystery. Someone dies and no one can figure out who did it.
