WTAF. I spoke about this a few times before. People in many parts of West Asia/many Arab people have been wearing keffiyehs for CENTURIES. They represent many things, and yes -they do symbolize Palestinian resistance and solidarity -and if you have an issue with anyone wearing a keffiyeh in any space you're a genocidal apologist.
This is BEYOND ignorant and IS discrimination. I hope we see a class-action lawsuit that sues the provincial government for doing this/normalizing this because it's ILLEGAL. These politicians (especially the PC's -who were shouting no to overturn it and one of them saying they felt UNSAFE... the audacity) are just racist bigots.

I'm the first one to say that I dislike white and gray homes, but I just fell in love with this 1886 boutique home in the storybook town of Kingsville, Ontario, Canada. The 5bd, 3ba home comes FULLY FURNISHED, C$849,900.
I love the baby blue double doors and wreaths.
The interior side of the doors are painted gray and white stripes to match the ceiling. The whole home is painted white, but the wood on the original railing give it a nice contrast. Put on your sunglasses b/c it's blindingly white in here. The new buyer can always add color, though.
We get to look at the furniture b/c it's included in the sale. The oversized loveseat is a beautiful piece, but it may overwhelm this space. The runner on the stairs is lovely and usually I don't like runners.
Twin sofas and chairs in the sitting room face each other. I love the chandelier and the painted flowers around the ceiling medallion.
This sitting room is a TV room. It has a fireplace, nice wallpaper and a pretty basket weave lampshade. It's hard to see, but it looks like there are whimsical flamingos on the wallpaper. That wood piece in the corner sticks out like a sore thumb. If there were other wood pieces it would tie in better.
The kitchen has a double Viking stove, lovely backsplash tile, and I like the windows in the upper cabinets. Most of all, I love the blue antique island and wicker stools.
Look at the large pantry.
The porch, with beautiful brick walls, makes a light, breezy dining room. Love the blue wicker chairs to complete the look, plus the window shelves with plants.
Windows let in lots of natural light.
Very nice laundry room.
Lovely vintage half bath.
Set up as a home office, this room has lots of shelving, so it can be whatever the new owner likes- a library, craft room, or even a place to display a collection.
Looking down at the entrance hall.
The primary bedroom is beautifully furnished. Love the large bedside tables and antique vanity.
Brand new shower room. It's small, but nicely done. They made the most of the space.
This secondary bedroom has lovely vintage furniture.
The 2 smaller bedrooms are pretty also.
The bright, finished basement has wonderful original stone walls.
And, there's also a spacious shower room.
Pretty door on the side porch.
Large patio with a firepit and pergola.
There's also a 2 car garage with original vintage doors.

what is canada
Canada was a "Dominion" of the British Empire, meaning Queen Victoria used it in planning resource management to secure the most possible victory cards before their top item supply, or the supply of three different action cards, became exhausted.
Now, Canada remains because the British Empire is too lazy to clean up all their cards after they lose, as often happens when a country gets too many expansion packs.

An 18-year-old woman in Regina is facing several charges after she allegedly took off in a stolen police vehicle following officer’s efforts to assist her.
[...]
The officer came to her aid and determined that she was not in distress. As a next step, police transported the woman to a home where she would be allowed to stay with individuals known to her.
As the officer was confirming if the woman was welcome at the home, police say the woman climbed into the driver’s seat and attempted to drive away.
The officer attempted to remove the woman but after a short struggle, she was able to put the vehicle in drive and leave the area.

I think instead of formally separating from the Commonwealth, Canada should just refuse to acknowledge that Queen Elizabeth II ever died.

This 1883 Queen Anne Revival in Georgetown, Prince Edward Island, Canada is unusually decorated. It's large, too, 9bds, 4ba, C$1,458,888. It isn't a B&B or venue, but it is being sold with most of the furnishings plus commercial dishware.
This is interesting. Walk in to wall-to-wall paisley carpeting and an office nook.
There's a large combination sitting/dining room.
This furniture isn't that nice, but I bet it comes with that big antique piano.
There are some nice pieces in here.
Cute conversational seating in the turret room.
The kitchen's nice.
Cozy porch with a wood burning stove.
The family room looks nice in black.
Nice large vintage bath.
This is so interesting. They has a sink installed in almost all of the 9 bedrooms.
Maybe they have sinks b/c there are 9bds. and only 4 baths?
The primary bedroom has a little turret room sitting area.
Stairs to more bedrooms in the attic.
There's the sink.
Bath in the attic.
Cute little room would also make a nice studio.
This place has to have been a venue b/c this pavilion is also on the property. Has a lot of potential.
The property is in a beautiful location on the Brudenell River and the lot it's on is 11.20 acres.
