For those of you who are regular visitors and followers of my blog, you will know that I do not share what I am about to share very often. However, I was pretty annoyed when I heard this, which was on Tuesday evening's Montreal news, so...I am sharing the link.  I was born and raised here in Montreal and have lived here all my life and I do love it here.  However, I have to say that I do not like things like this that happen here.  Just click the following link to see the story.


Thank you all so much for visiting me here! I always enjoy and appreciate reading your kind thoughts, which you are always welcome to share.

  2. Good quote about pain being a stepping stone, not a campground. I try to avoid suffering whenever possible, but I have learned a little pain is to be expected in life, that pain is relative, and "this too shall pass." The good Lord always sees us through!

  3. What a strange thing to happen! I guess most of their customers were French. LOVE the Lyre bird!! Gosh, it even sings the theme from Seinfeld!! I will have to show Phil tomorrow, he will love this!

  6. Yes, don't be a hero. See what happens to them in stories and movies. At times, we'll just have to let it go...and let it be.

  8. This young lady has every reason to be so upset, humiliated, and now out of work, I'm sure the manager and other staff will have issues to face, and compensation would be so totally right. Hope you are not snowed in, from what I saw on our TV, it has not been as severe as expected,

  15. Always enjoy the gags. The bird, I dunno. I have a hard time with critters that are smarter than I am! :) Love that Negis Art.

    Au revoir! I think that's French. :) Have a great day!

  16. oh j'adore "inspiration garden"
    merci bonne journée Linda

  17. Hi, dear Linda! The people staging those gags on unsuspecting members of the public are lucky they don't get socked in the kisser. Some of the things they do to people would anger a good number of people here in the lower 48. Corrected vision can open up a whole new world of education and achievement for those needy inner city youth and I applaud that program. Few things are more awe inspiring than watching animals move in slow motion, particularly when the footage is set to music.

    Thank you, dear friend Linda, and have a wonderful Wednesday!

  21. As always when I visit your amazing blog, I feel so inspired. The "Think Positive Words" really spoke to me today...helped to get things into perspective.
    Thank you so much, Linda!

  22. Excellent post Linda, I have forwards two of your philosophical pieces to someone who I think will truly appreciate the wisdom. :)

  28. That Inspiration Garden pic brings a smile to me.

    The manager of that establishment is no doubt going to have a lot of grovelling to do. I can see why you'd dislike it.

  30. Sweet Linda, I'm very sorry that you were troubled by that news story. It is quite an eyebrow raiser for sure and troubled me to read (it) as well. I really appreciate that you share both the good and that bad that catch your attention with us.

    Big hugs & many thanks for your immensely sweet comment yesterday,
    ♥ Jessica

  31. Hi Linda, I could only get the Lyre bird to work this morning but will be back for the other videos. My cable is a bit slow today. That Lyre bird is really something and always enjoy the inspirational quotes. Thanks so much and have a wonderful day :)

  32. J'ai fait l’école bilingue et quand j’étais en Ontario j'ai toujours travaillé pour les entreprises qui avaient un lien avec le Québec (donc je parlais français pratiquement tous les jours). Mais chaque fois que je suis allée a Montréal dès que je parlais français, les gens me répondaient en anglais. C’était très frustrant... surtout quand plein de Québécois se plaint que les anglophones au Canada ne font pas d'effort de leur parler en français. :S

  33. The Lyrebird is amazing! As someone who started wearing eyeglasses at a young age, I love hearing about the program in NY. I do remember the first time I put a prescription on and through wow! What a same about that restaurant in Montreal. I would never want to work for a company like that.

  34. "Make room in your day for kindness" - remembering that one today.

    ReplyDelete
  35. Oh Linda - I loved it all but the best was the Kitty and quote about holding on and staying strong. Made me smile friend. Hope you are having a wonderful week. Hugs

    ReplyDelete
  36. Cheers, Linda. Hope your day is going well.

  37. Yikes! it's bad to single out an employee in this way. Should have talked to her instead. If problem still continues, only then should give her a written warning but not on the notice board like that. Felt like bullying

    ReplyDelete
  38. Your quotes here are always very encouraging and uplifting. Thank you.

    ReplyDelete
  39. I love the kitty one, that is what I need right now! Thanks for sharing!
