Inseparable Snow Leopards Are BFFs For Life!
These baby Snow Leopards are two of a kind! New to the Toronto Zoo, these little guys can't get enough of each other's company and have been inseparable since they were born earlier this month.

But our neighbor to the North, Canada, deserves a round of applause as well. Canadian House and Home is one of my favorite shelter magazines, and it comes as no surprise that the pub's staff has envy-inducing style as well.
Obama Deserves Bush's Silence, but Canada Doesn't
President Bush got back in the speech saddle this week, telling an invitation-only crowd in Canada that he doesn't plan on attacking his successor because Obama deserves his silence.
Apparently content with letting Cheney do the criticizing, Bush said: There's plenty of critics in the arena, I think it's time for the ex-president to tap dance off the stage and let the current president have a go at solving the world's problems.

Obese Air Travelers in Canada Have Right to Free Seat
As a tall woman, I am relieved when the seat next to me on a flight ends up empty, since the space I paid for is painfully too small. As of today, obese people flying Canadian airlines officially have a right to that extra seat, at no extra cost.
