Jean-Alexandre drew this, but I coloured it in and added a few sprinkles.

Jean-Alexandre will be 12 on April 25th. He has been drawing since he was four. Pages and pages of drawings, although now they are fewer and more detailed than before.
Il y a peut-être un an de cela, une amie m'a dit qu'elle avait entendu dire certains gens traiter Marie-Jeunesse de secte.

But then I decided against it, because, well there are interesting articles in there, and because it's refreshing to have a non-liberal viewpoint for a change. But then there are also commentaries like this one: Bush's wise words By Catherine S. Nelson National Post Published: Tuesday, March 10, 2009 Re: Death-Row Inmate Hopes For Transfer, March 7. Although I am not usually one to quote George W. Bush, I think one of his statements from back when he was governor of Texas is worth recalling in the case of Ronald Smith. It was at a time when a Canadian was on death row in Texas. As the usual "anti-death penalty" suspects gathered to wring thei...
