Absolutely nothing in the stores or flyers about Thanksgiving, but no end to Diwali for past several weeks.
I`ve seen Happy Diwali on most Calgary transit busses. I miss the Canada i grew up in.
Is that Justin Trudeau?
They had 6 hours of fireworks last night in Kelowna, mostly in the Rutland and Ellison areas.
I live in Ellison county, which is semi rural, and the complaints are rolling in about frightened livestock, etc.
Of course they are especially happy on this Diwali because Kelowna council just approved a site for the new, big temple.
Jeez, is that what was going on in my neighbourhood during the Jays’ game Monday night, specifically during the third and sixth inning? I thought it was some liqoured up Mariners’ fans getting excited over taking the lead in the game which I figured explained why there were no fireworks after the final out.
I’m not kidding.
Generally speaking I have not ever heard a Hindu complain about “Merry Christmas.” That is the other religion, the pieces of bodies one.
It won’t be long before The Ministry of Truth has eliminated all references to the Celts, the Britons, the Anglo-Saxons, whatever.
I’m old enough to remember when “Hare Krishna”, “Hare Rama”, and “Hare Hare” … are what you heard at the airport chanted by white suburban kids who had found Hindu “enlightenment”. They were to be avoided lest you had a flower shoved in your hand and begging commenced upon your person.

Is that dancing in bare feet by groceries? If so yuck.
