Mr Dean, you need to take us on a magical gastro/cultural mystery tour! Poutine is a great start, may I suggest the Pie Floater (a staple from my uni days) as your next adventure?

Having grown up with poutine everywhere (Live in southern Ontario) Iv never understood why people in a fast food nation like America are so amazed by poutine lol. Poutine making tip, when buying cheese curds make sure they squeek when you bite into them.

And more than us, having good mom role models will be key. I think we’ve got that going on, too.

well….i wouldn’t go that far…i never see parents as being saviors….but we can certianly do our best to equip them with the tools to combat all of those negative messages, and let them know that best way to express yourself is with your voice, your words, and your art!

There you go. We’ll be the saviors, right?

The poutine available here (Toronto) at the burger kings is revolting. Best to order it at a Mom and Pop restaurants.

I heard that. When that gets exported, we’re all in trouble.

In my counseling training, I’ve been forced to disregard my disdain for this practice a number of times, so I have put myself in the place of he adulterer and tried to understand their perspective. I am not very close to accomplishing this, but the statistic you presented leads me to believe that if we do in fact value the institution of marraige, we should work to find the root causes of this behavior, and find ways of addressing it, even if we disdain it and couldn’t imagine commiting it ourselves.
