this is 100% dedicated and inspired by one of my best friends.

I've known her since 2006, the first year I came to study in Canada. She was the first one to talk to me during my very first swim practice with my club. I've been close to her for over 5 years already and not until today have i realized how proud i was to have her as a friend. She went through one of the most traumatic experiences any person could possibly imagine, and she's fighting through it. She told me that it doesn't bother her too much, but i could see the pain and terror in her eyes as i was talking to her. I know that she's trying her hardest not to break. I know that she's battling all her emotions within. I know that she's on the verge of breaking down. But what I also know is that she's strong enough to get through it. I am immensely proud of her and I wish her the best, really i do. Stay strong.

What visit to a lavender farm would be complete without meeting a couple of friendly Buddhist Monks from Thailand?

They were taking selfies at the lavender farm near Milton Ontario. I offered to take one of the two of them which they appreciated. I then asked if I could take this one with my camera for myself.

The man with sunglasses confirmed my assumption that they are Buddhist Monks and told me they are from Thailand. He has been studying in Canada for 8 years. His friend (to the left) has only been in Canada for a month.

They were very pleasant and our paths crossed a few times as we all enjoyed our stroll through the lavender.

Happy at the beach In case you didn't see her before, her real name is Happiness. She came from Africa to study in Canada and she was a volunteer for our Trash the Dress shoot. I just love her natural ability to pose and she just loves the chance to wear exotic makeup, and I think she has the biggest jewellry collection I have ever seen. And those purple boots...well, I think that was the finishing touch for sure! I mean. what else would you wear to the beach with your torn wedding dress which is held together in back with big safety pins??? Thanks Happy!!

Better pose in previous shot :-)

James Henry Fleming by Shannon Stafford

FLEMING, JAMES HENRY, naturalist; b. 5 July 1872 in Toronto, only son of James Fleming, a businessman, and Mary Elizabeth Wade, his second wife; m. first 8 Dec. 1897 Christine Mackay Keefer (d. 1903) in Ottawa, and they had a daughter and a son; m. secondly 14 Oct. 1908 Caroline Toovey (1878–1958) in Aston Sandford, England; d. 2 June 1940 in Toronto.

James Henry Fleming, commonly known as Harry, was born, raised, and lived his entire life in Toronto. His childhood family home was on the southwest corner of Yonge and Elm streets, where his father, a Scottish immigrant and successful seed merchant, had established in 1837 a horticultural operation of two and a half acres on land owned by Jesse Ketchum*. By the time Fleming was born in 1872, the gardens – located on what were then the northern outskirts of a city with a population of less than 10,000 – were not only a prosperous business enterprise but also an oasis along the thoroughfare of Yonge Street. The lush grounds provided a world of exploration for a young boy and it was there that Fleming, constantly accompanied by a Newfoundland dog named Wallace, nurtured his penchant for natural history. His passion for collecting began with his seeking out insects in the gardens and pinning them for display. One of Fleming’s earliest ornithological memories was of purple martins nesting in the birdhouse placed by his parents in the gardens, a birdhouse he would later relocate to the house he purchased in 1892. University of Toronto field trips were often conducted on the property and Fleming was able to tag along behind the students and glean interesting information.

Because of his successful horticultural business, Fleming Sr had become a prominent citizen of the city, serving as a justice of the peace and as an alderman. As for young Harry, the gardens were both an incubator for his natural-history interests and the source of the family wealth that would allow him to pursue his lifelong passion for collecting birds and ornithological literature. When his father died in 1887, he left an estate worth nearly $200,000 to his wife and son, with most of the land passing to Harry on his 25th birthday.

Harry Fleming received his formal education first at the Toronto Model School and then at Upper Canada College, graduating from the latter in 1889. But it was the knowledge he acquired on his own, at his home and in the neighbourhood of his boyhood years, that would determine the course of his adult life. In 1884, at the age of 12, Fleming found a small grass nest of a vesper sparrow replete with four unhatched eggs. He carefully removed the contents from the eggs and added them to his collection, which already contained preserved hummingbirds that he had purchased from millinery suppliers that sold the colourful birds as adornments for the hats of fashionable Toronto socialites. The hummingbirds were available for 10 cents each and, by saving 5 cents of the 15 cents he received each day for lunch, the budding naturalist was able to buy six different specimens over two weeks. He would manage his personal finances in much the same way for the rest of his life.

While in his early teens, Fleming was influenced by two distinctive Victorian institutions. The first was the taxidermy shop of William Cross, located on Queen Street West between Fleming’s home and Upper Canada College. Like others of its kind, it was a vital hub in the local natural-history network. Sportsmen, egg collectors, and wildlife enthusiasts of all kinds would gather there daily to exchange stories, specimens, and ideas, and it was at this establishment that Fleming made the social contacts with like-minded naturalists and collectors that would form the foundation of his ornithological career. One of the most important of these was William Brodie*, who would become a significant mentor following the death of Fleming’s father.

The second Victorian institution that had a major impact on Fleming was the British Museum (Natural History) in London, England. In 1886 he accompanied his father to the United Kingdom where the youth explored the museum’s collection. It made an indelible impression on him and before returning to Canada he informed his father that his goal was to form a representative collection of birds.

In 1888 Fleming began keeping a detailed field journal to describe sightings and collecting results. The journal, which he faithfully maintained for the rest of his life, led to his being admitted to the ornithological subsection of the Canadian Institute in 1889 through a special provision for an associate (junior) membership; his relationship with the institute enabled him to participate in the assembling of records and specimens of Ontario birds. Following a two-year visit to Europe that included a brief enrolment at the Royal School of Mines in London, Fleming returned to Toronto in 1891 and dedicated himself to the full-time pursuit of amateur ornithology.

The following year Fleming purchased a house on Rusholme Road, close to Heydon Villa, home of George Taylor Denison*. Located between Bloor and College streets, the neighbourhood was then surrounded by extensive open lands and wild areas. Fleming earnestly engaged in collecting birds near his home, killing 77 birds of 44 species in May 1892 alone. One of the most notable incidents occurred on the evening of 6 June 1892 when Fleming, though knowing that the species was on the verge of extinction, shot and wounded the last passenger pigeon ever recorded in the Toronto region. This was the only time that Fleming saw a live wild passenger pigeon, and the episode illustrates the overwhelming emphasis on specimen collecting that characterized natural history at the time.

At the end of the 19th century, there was growing antipathy towards collecting – the fledgling Toronto Humane Society was among the institutions and individuals who shared this sentiment – and provincial authorities began to limit the letting of shooting permits. But Fleming saw things differently. Like other naturalists such as Thomas McIlwraith*, while he was dedicated to the protection of species, he defended the value of specimens and what has been described as “shotgun ornithology” for the establishment of research collections and the advancement of science. He wrote in the Toronto Globe in 1897: “The ornithologist who works for the knowledge he gets is the best safeguard the birds can have. He explains to the small boy with the 22-calibre rifle the harm he does; he discourages in every way possible the needless killing of birds, and is himself to be found using the field-glass more often than the gun in the field. What he does kill he wants, and he can make good use of the specimens so procured.”

Fleming visited the Caribbean in 1892–93 and there contracted malaria, which would afflict him for the rest of his life. Afterwards, he represented the province of Ontario at the Columbian exposition in Chicago in 1893 with a display of taxidermy birds, and between 1895 and 1897 he was the curator of the Canadian Institute’s museum collection. There were no other professional opportunities in Toronto, or in Canada for that matter, whereby Fleming could pursue his passion for assembling a representative bird collection, and so he carved his own path to achieve his ambition. In 1894 he had entered into a partnership with a local taxidermist, opened the business in his father’s old florist shop, and used the enterprise as a means to procure specimens and species records. The shop continued in the Victorian tradition represented by William Cross’s establishment and became the nexus for regional natural-history activity. It was in that shop that Fleming befriended Percy Algernon Taverner*, who would become a colleague, lifelong correspondent, and, thanks in part to Fleming’s intervention with John Macoun*, first curator of birds at Ottawa’s Victoria Memorial Museum (renamed the National Museum of Canada in 1927). By the mid 1890s Fleming listed his occupation as “naturalist.”

Fleming was an heir to more than his father’s sizeable estate; he was likewise an heir to the Victorian ideal that lauded the personal betterment of the informed citizen through nature study. Amateur natural history was fashionable and expected of the educated person. In the late 19th and early 20th centuries, the professionalization of the sciences had achieved only a precarious foothold in the study of birds. Fleming could not have been a professional ornithologist simply because such an occupation did not exist in Canada until later in the 20th century. Furthermore, Canada lacked any formal national natural-history collection until 1927, although the Geological Survey of Canada and the Victoria Memorial Museum held items brought together by men such as George Mercer Dawson*, Robert Bell*, and Macoun.

Fleming returned to Britain in the spring of 1895 to visit the British Museum (Natural History) and while there he cultivated business relationships with many of the world’s most prominent natural-history dealers, noteworthy among whom was Ernst Mayr Hartert, the curator of birds for the world’s largest private natural-history collection, amassed by Lionel Walter Rothschild. In the following years, Fleming would trade for, purchase, or otherwise obtain many rare specimens from Rothschild. He would travel to the London area on 11 more occasions during his lifetime. Fleming also developed strong professional ties and friendships with the leading naturalists and ornithologists at institutions in the United States, including the American Museum of Natural History (New York), the Smithsonian Institution (Washington), the American Academy of Arts and Sciences (Philadelphia), the Museum of Comparative Anatomy at Harvard University (Cambridge, Mass.), and the Field Museum of Natural History (Chicago).

Fleming became a familiar fixture at the leading ornithological-society meetings in North America and also attended a few significant meetings in Europe. In 1905 he was the only Canadian at the International Ornithological Congress in London, where he presented a scientific paper and met many of the world’s most distinguished ornithologists, whom he described light-heartedly in a letter to his mother: “The congress is frightfully noisy[.] Like the tower of Babel any old language goes here apparently the louder the better.… We have got the most extraordinary collection of freaks possible.… Giraffes and barons and freaks some in cases and some outside.…” In Canada that year, along with Taverner and William Edwin Saunders, Fleming was a founding member of the Great Lakes Ornithological Club (GLOC), which had a particular interest in the bird-rich environs of Point Pelee, Ont. The club’s activities would be instrumental in the rationale for establishing Point Pelee National Park. The GLOC is also recognized for its pioneer efforts in bird banding in Canada. Fleming set the example when, on 24 Sept. 1905, he caught an American robin in his backyard and placed a metal ring with the number “1” on its leg, the first such marking in Canada.

Fleming accumulated most of his collection between 1903 and 1925, purchasing, trading for, or shooting approximately 31,500 birds during this period. These were preserved as study skins and stored in sealed museum cases. His accumulation of Toronto-area birds was remarkably complete and contained specimens that he had obtained from most of the leading naturalists of the day. The stories and information associated with these skins provide an archive of what was then a nascent field of study in Canada. Fleming built an addition to his home in 1904 to house his growing collection and expanded it again in 1925 with a two-storey facility for his birds and library. On his death in 1940, his private museum comprised 32,267 birdskins (the most representative private bird collection in the world at the time), more than 2,000 bound ornithological texts (nearly all of the most significant works published in the English language), 10,000 scientific papers, and some 50 years of ornithological correspondence. The entire collection was given to the Royal Ontario Museum where he had been appointed honorary curator of birds in 1927. Fleming had previously become honorary curator of ornithology for the Victoria Memorial Museum in Ottawa in 1913. The latter title recognized his donation of over 350 mounted birds for public display; his bequest remains a legacy to his enduring labour and his desire to see a world-class ornithological collection in his own country.

Fleming’s collecting complemented a detailed understanding of both historical and contemporary ornithology. He had a voracious appetite for reading and dedicated much of his time to the careful examination of ornithological-journal papers and to narrative histories and biographies of natural-history exploration and explorers. He also stayed current in his field through participation in the American Ornithologists’ Union (AOU), the predominant bird-study organization in North America, from 1893 until his death. He was a notable member of that body, being elected to the vice-presidency in 1926 when the AOU met for the first time in Canada, and subsequently to the presidency in 1932. The apogee of Fleming’s career occurred in 1934 when he attended the International Ornithological Congress (IOC) in London. There he celebrated his 62nd birthday by having a photograph taken of himself, as AOU president, with the presidents of the IOC and the British Ornithologists’ Union. His name had become synonymous with an institution, an amalgam of the man and the ornithological archives that he had assembled.

By the end of Fleming’s term as president of the AOU in 1935, ornithology had reached a significant bifurcation. One branch emerged as a professional and specialized science while the other continued along the lines of Victorian amateur natural history. The ornithological journals, led by the AOU’s journal the Auk, were calling for papers of a more scientific and theoretical nature and collecting was being supplanted by field observation. Concomitantly, natural-history organizations that had flourished at the turn of the century were revived and Fleming participated in their work. For example, the Brodie Club (founded as the Toronto Naturalists’ Club in 1921), the Toronto Ornithological Club, and the Toronto Field-Naturalists’ Club were vital organizations in the 1930s and Fleming held honorary, but active, positions in all of them.

A visitor to Fleming’s home on 2 March 1938, Doris Huestis Speirs, wrote that “he belongs to the old school of true Canadian gentlemen, with closely clipped white beard and hair, like my grandfather’s. He has perfect manners … [and] a great and driving love of birds.” Just over two years later, Fleming died of “hardening of the arteries of the brain” and was buried in the Toronto Necropolis; the inscription on his gravestone describes him simply as “Ornithologist.”

Fleming pursued his career during a brief period when it was possible for an amateur naturalist to ascend to the pinnacle of international ornithology as it evolved from a descriptive, collection-based science to one that was more theoretical and behaviour-based. He recognized the benefits that could result from both professional specialization and amateur natural history and valued the activities of each. Acknowledged as the dean of Canadian ornithology, Fleming had a distinguished career as an ornithologist and was recognized internationally for his comprehensive private collection and knowledge of systematic ornithology. His accomplishment in collecting had no Canadian precedent, nor could it be repeated by a private individual. He can be counted among a small number of private natural-history collectors who made such contributions around the world.

Just kidding. I actually never got my driver's license, so this is my primary form of ID.

The stamp you see here is the one that allowed me to study in Canada as a student in 2003. (It was actually then that I met Augustine, and we've been together ever since!)

The Delta Variant Is Sending More Children to the Hospital. Are They Sicker, Too?

It is not yet clear whether the Delta variant causes more severe disease in children, but its high level of infectiousness is causing a surge of pediatric Covid-19 cases.

Pilar Villarraga had spent much of the summer counting down the days until her daughter Sophia’s birthday. In early August, Sophia would turn 12 — and become officially eligible for a Covid-19 vaccine. “I didn’t want her to start school without the vaccine,” said Ms. Villarraga, who lives in Doral, Fla.

And then, in late July, just two weeks before the milestone birthday, Sophia caught the coronavirus. At first, she just had a fever, but on July 25, after four quiet days convalescing at home, her ribs began to hurt. The next day, Ms. Villarraga took her to the emergency room, where chest X-rays revealed that Sophia had developed pneumonia. She soon began coughing up blood.

Sophia was promptly admitted to Nicklaus Children’s Hospital, in Miami. Her parents, and their friends, were in shock. “I didn’t think that kids could get that sick,” Ms. Villarraga said.

But Sophia was one of roughly 130 children with Covid-19 who were admitted to a U.S. hospital that day, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. That number has been climbing since early July; from July 31 to Aug. 6, 216 children with Covid were being hospitalized every day, on average, nearly matching the 217 daily admissions during the pandemic’s peak in early January.

Hospitals in coronavirus hot spots have been particularly hard hit. On a single day last week, Arkansas Children’s Hospital, in Little Rock, had 19 hospitalized children with Covid; Johns Hopkins All Children’s Hospital, in St. Petersburg, Fla., had 15; and Children’s Mercy Kansas City, in Missouri, had 12. All had multiple children in the intensive care unit.

These numbers have sparked concerns that what had once seemed like the smallest of silver linings — that Covid-19 mostly spared children — might be changing. Some doctors on the front lines say they are seeing more critically ill children than they have at any previous point of the pandemic and that the highly contagious Delta variant is likely to blame.

“Everybody is a little bit nervous about the possibility that the Delta variant could in fact be, in some way, more dangerous in kids,” said Dr. Richard Malley, a pediatric infectious disease specialist at Boston Children’s Hospital.

Most children with Covid-19 have mild symptoms, and there is not yet enough evidence to conclude that Delta causes more severe disease in children than other variants do, scientists said.

What is clear is that a confluence of factors — including Delta’s contagiousness and the fact that people under 12 are not yet eligible to be vaccinated — is sending more children to the hospital, especially in areas of the country where the virus is surging. “If you have more cases, then at some point, of course it trickles down to children,” Dr. Malley said.

Climbing cases

Many children’s hospitals had been hoping for a quiet summer. Several run-of-the-mill childhood viruses are less common during the warmer months, and national Covid rates had been declining through the spring.

But last month, as Delta spread, that began to change. “The number of positive Covid tests started to climb in early July,” said Marcy Doderer, the president and chief executive of Arkansas Children’s Hospital. “And then that’s when we really started to see the kids get sick.”

The vaccines are effective against Delta — and provide powerful protection against severe disease and death — but children under 12 are not yet eligible for them. So as more and more adults get vaccinated, children make up an increasing share of Covid cases; between July 22 and July 29, they accounted for 19 percent of reported new cases, according to the American Academy of Pediatrics.

“They’re the unvaccinated,” said Dr. Yvonne Maldonado, a pediatric infectious-disease specialist at Stanford Medicine and chair of the A.A.P. Committee on Infectious Diseases. “That’s where we’re seeing all the new infections.”

From July 22 to July 29, nearly 72,000 new pediatric Covid cases were reported, almost twice as many as in the previous week, according to the association. At Johns Hopkins All Children’s Hospital, 181 children tested positive for the virus in July, up from just 12 in June.

Most of those children have relatively mild symptoms, such as runny noses, congestion, coughs or fevers, said Dr. Wassam Rahman, the medical director of the pediatric emergency center at All Children’s. “Most of the kids are not very sick,” he said. “Most will go home and be treated with preventive care at home. But as you might imagine, families are scared.”

A small share of children do develop severe disease, showing up at the hospital with pneumonia or in respiratory distress.

Of the 15 children with Covid-19 who were inpatients at Children’s Hospital New Orleans late last week, four — including a 3-month-old baby — were in intensive care, said Dr. Mark Kline, the hospital’s physician in chief. None of the children, including the eight who were old enough to be eligible, had been vaccinated.

“This Delta variant of Covid-19 is an infectious disease specialist’s worst nightmare,” Dr. Kline said. “And there’s just no sign that it has started to plateau.”

Some hospitalized children have other chronic conditions, like diabetes or asthma, that may make them more vulnerable to Covid, but doctors said that they also have seriously ill patients without any obvious risk factors.

Sophia, who was on her school’s track and cross country teams, was healthy and active before getting Covid, her mother said. Her parents were surprised by how quickly she deteriorated. “From one minute to another, she got super bad,” Ms. Villarraga said. “I said, ‘You know, I could lose my child.’”

After Sophia was admitted, doctors began treating her with the antiviral drug remdesivir, as well as antibiotics, steroids and a blood thinner. “From there, it was a day-by-day thing,” Ms. Villaraga said. “Little by little, she got better.”

Sophia, like most children with Covid-19, is expected to make a full recovery, her mother said. (A small percentage of children may experience lingering, long-term symptoms often known as long Covid.) She was discharged on July 31 and celebrated her birthday several days later — at home, with an ice cream cake.

Delta differences

Ms. Villaraga was not told whether Sophia had the Delta variant, but more than 80 percent of new cases in the United States are caused by Delta, the C.D.C. estimates, and doctors said that it is clear that Delta is behind the surge in childhood infections.

What remains unknown is whether children who are infected with Delta are actually getting sicker than they would have if they had caught a different variant — or if Delta, which is roughly twice as transmissible as the original virus, is just so infectious that many more children are getting sick.

There is some emerging evidence — mostly from data on adults — that Delta may cause more severe disease. Studies in Canada, Scotland and Singapore, for instance, have suggested, variously, that Delta may be more likely to lead to hospitalization, I.C.U. admission or death.

But the research is preliminary, experts said, and there is not yet enough good data on the severity of Delta cases in children.

“There’s no firm evidence that the disease is more severe,” said Dr. Jim Versalovic, the pathologist in chief and interim pediatrician in chief at Texas Children’s Hospital, in Houston, where about 10 percent of children now test positive for the virus, up from less than 3 percent in June. “We certainly are seeing severe cases, but we’ve seen severe cases throughout the pandemic.”

Although not all states report their pediatric hospitalization rates, the data that is available suggests that they have remained essentially steady for months. Nationally, roughly 1 percent of children who are infected with the virus end up hospitalized, and 0.01 percent die, according to the A.A.P. data. Both hospitalization and death rates have declined since last summer.

It is still possible, of course, that Delta could turn out to cause more severe disease in children. Hospitalization rates, which are a lagging indicator, could rise in the weeks and months ahead. And the rare but serious inflammatory syndrome that develops in some children with Covid-19 can take weeks to appear.

“I think time will tell, really,” Dr. Rahman said. “We need at least a month, maybe two months before we get a sense of trends.”

But in the U.K., where Delta swept through the population before the variant became widespread in the United States, experts say they have not seen clear evidence that the variant is making children sicker.

“There was a wave, there were children who became unwell,” said Dr. Elizabeth Whittaker, a pediatric infectious disease and immunology specialist at Imperial College London. “But not in the kind of, ‘Oh, my gosh, this is very different, this is worrying.’”

Dual surges

Whether or not Delta turns out to be more severe, the variant is clearly driving a surge of new infections in both children and adults, especially in areas where vaccine coverage is low. “The rates among children are going up because the rates among unvaccinated family members in their homes are going up,” Dr. Maldonado said.

And more infected children means more hospitalized children. “It’s a numbers game at this point,” Dr. Versalovic said.

Making matters worse, many hospitals are also reporting a highly unusual spike in children with respiratory syncytial virus, a contagious flulike illness that typically strikes in the fall and winter. R.S.V. cases were abnormally low last winter, likely because of lockdowns and pandemic precautions, but cases have been rising as officials lift restrictions and children begin to mingle.

Children’s Mercy Kansas City had nearly three times as many R.S.V. patients as Covid patients late last week, while Texas Children’s had nearly 1,500 positive R.S.V. tests in the last 90 days, hospital officials said.

“That has created a dual surge,” Dr. Versalovic said. “Because both viruses are widely circulating, we’re seeing a much greater impact.”

The combination of R.S.V. and Covid has pushed Children’s Hospital New Orleans to capacity. “We haven’t had an empty bed in any of our intensive care units in six weeks,” Dr. Kline said.

It is not yet clear when children under 12 may be eligible for vaccination, but in the meantime, experts said, the best way to reduce the danger to children, and relieve the stress on hospitals, is for older children and adults to get vaccinated, which will help curb Delta’s spread.

“The safest way to never find out whether Delta is more aggressive to children than the original strain is to really enhance vaccination,” Dr. Malley said.

State visit to the People’s Republic of China by Linh Trường Đường

A visit to promote understanding and co-op--Canadian Governor General on China trip

People's Daily Online 14:16, October 18, 2013

Canadian Governor General David Johnston says that Canada and China have a wonderful foundation and potential to further develop strategic partnership relations. His Excellency’s visit is looking forward to renewing old friendships and strengthening the state-to-state relationship. He makes this remark during an interview with a group of Canada-stationed Chinese journalists on the eve of His Excellency’s visit to China,

On the purpose of the visit:

His Excellency says: This would be the first time I would travel as Governor General to China. In the other occasions I traveled as president of universities and that would be different. I expect to see the same warm welcome and interest in Canada, finding more common ground.

The purpose of this trip and other visits of your leaders to Canada and Canadian leaders to China is to strengthen bilateral relations both at the formal level with respect to state relations at the trade level and the business and investment level and of course at the people level where education and culture play such prominent role in both our societies. The broad objective of this trip with respect to bilateral relations involves prosperity, education, innovation, culture.

I look forward to the high level discussions that I’d have with your president and your prime minister and we are deeply honored that they have made arrangements in their very demanding schedules to see us at the Great Hall of the People in Beijing. In the meetings with your leaders we will be to foster our relationship in those four broad areas.

We have seen investment from China in Canada and we expect to broaden our trade relationship. One of the events I’ll be attending in China is the Canada-China Business Council's meeting. I’ll be speaking to that gathering, and I’ll also be attending the Western China International Fair in Chengdu which will be a great highlight of my visit. These are all incidents where one by one brick by brick we build the mutual support and confidence in one another's objectives.

On personal relations with china

His Excellency says: I have a personal interest in Canada-China relations. Three of my five daughters have studied in china for considerable lengths. One of them was two years at the Beijing Language Institute, speaking mandarin. The second spent a year and a half one year at the Chinese university of Hong Kong and then a summer in Nanjing and another summer in Hangzhou, studying the language, and then our fourth daughter did four months in shanghai as part of her master of public administration at the Canadian Queen's university. So we have great affection for China in our home. My daughters were so impressed by Chinese calligraphy and taken by Chinese culture. It developed from curiosity to deep appreciation and respect for the Chinese civilisation and culture. When our children came back from China, they wanted us to eat with chopsticks and eat Chinese food because they felt it was much healthier. My first visit to china was 32 years ago and I have been back to China for about a dozen times or so. So we have a long standing affection for the Chinese people. I am anticipating and seeing the benefits of many, many decades of efforts by people to people exchanges that bring our nations more closely together.

So, I expect I would see the same kind of genuine interest in relationship between peoples, including family, and friendship, because the Chinese people are very conscious of family tie and friendships. So whether I am a university president or Governor General I think that the friendship would be a constant.

On co-operation in the field of education

Governor General says: To promote people to people understanding my number one recommendation would be for more Canadian students to do what my three daughters had done. Understanding the great joy of coming to understand albeit for a few month, the Chinese culture and Chinese civilisation. If they are here, they would tell you that their time in China marked one of the most important periods of their lives. Their worlds were opened up and they came to appreciate the civilisation and the long and rich history of China. Secondly, I would like to see more institution to institution relationship that is not just based on students having an interest in studying in another country, but the institution, the professors, the administrative leadership see this as the rich long term collaborations. So on this visit, I'll be in three universities, at least in the south, I'll be at Nanjing, Sichuan and the Sun Yat-Sen universities. Nanjing is the place that has a special place in my heart because I, as its president in the past, University of Waterloo has a very close relationship with Nanjing University, one of your very formidable and impressive institutions. Thanks to the twinning of the province of Ontario with the Jiangsu province, we established a Sino-Canadian college at the Nanjing university about 10 years ago with a programme we called the 2 plus 2 , in which a Chinese student is to spend his first two years at his home university and the last two at University of Waterloo. They will take a degree from both universities. They are taught in China by a few professors from Canadian universities and they are taught in Canada by a few professors from the Chinese universities. From those relationships great good things happen and that co-operation is the reflect of about 25 years work of professors at Nanjing and Waterloo universities on environmental sciences and in particular on coastal environmental issues that they have collaborated to establish whole new environmental planning regime to the coastal development of China. Canada is the largest coastal nation in the world, from coast to coast to coast. China has very large coast as well, and we have so much in common. On that specific beginning came many collaborations. Another area of collaboration between the two universities was environmental studies of the global warming and the ability to have boats pass through the Northeast and Northwest passage. So we have a whole plethora of opportunities and each party has much to gain, particularly when we take that longer term institution to institution approach.

I should tell you one of the great honors in my life is that I am an honorary fellow of Nanjing University. I was so touched that the honor was given to me. It was not an honor to me, it was an honor reflecting relationship of over 25 years that we have built between our two institutions, and we in turn honored president Wang of Nanjing University at our university, and that typified the fact that here are two universities on opposite ends of the globe that have found much common ground and each has advanced more substantially because of those personal relationships.

I am glad that in the last 40 years particularly in the education front we have seen very substantial changes and now there are about 84,000 Chinese studying in Canada, and close to 4,000 Canadian students in China, my three daughters were included at one point. And we hope that number will get up to 100,000 by 2015 and that would be one more example of how this relationship has blossomed over the years and I expect it to continue to do so. And I am fully confident that to achieve the target of the 100,000 two way flow of students is not the ceiling, but the floor, the number will be much higher.

There are a number of other fronts, for example we have a China Canada science and technology agreement for many years which has been helping on the innovation front and exchanging scholars and graduate students. At the same time, we expect to see more visitors from China. We are very pleased at the increase of tourists from China.

On impressions of China visits

Governor General says: I think our relationship is constantly being renewed in strength and going back over 40 years. My trips to China are about a dozen times now since 1981. When I first went, I was just struck by the rapid advances in China. And then, I came back again a few years later. I said: “O, my God! How much has changed in that period of time.” And I thought it cannot change this much again. But, when I came back, I was again struck by the advances made. I believe, this time I'll be very favorably impressed by the impressive advances that China is making.

The opportunity to further my study in Canada not only allow me to experience quality education but also allow me to explore this beautiful country. Canada's well-kept nature and astonishing landscapes are waiting to be discovered. With numerous world-class National Parks, which among them recognized as UNESCO World Heritage Site, this is a heaven for nature lover and avid hiker like me. One of my favorite is Jasper National Park. This picture was taken at the summit of Whistler Mountain. The view is just amazing!

He shoots he... by F J

Classmate Joshua strikes the ball against the soccer team of the Law faculty. Joshua is a very good soccer player which is unusual from a Canadian so I asked him a couple of years ago where he learned to play soccer so good and he said, “Peru”, and that he grew up there because that’s where his parents worked. I wondered what kind of businesses moved a Canadian couple and their children to Peru, especially with the political unrest of a couple decades ago. Later on I found out that Josh’s parents are missionaries in Peru and while he is back studying in Canada they still serve there.

Josh had two players from the other team surrounding him throughout the game, because he is the best striker in the Engineering team: he has scored 8 goals in the last 5 games, while the second best striker has scored 2 goals in the last 5 games. The engineering team lost 1-4 to the law team, and it's their first loss in a while. The engineering team was the champion in 2010.

The game was exciting to see who would win, and if the engineering team would make a comeback. But overall, I disliked the whole atmosphere of the game as the competitiveness was breading nothing more than anger, profanity, and animosity between the two teams, and blame between the members of the team. I think we humans put our emotional security in sports and our happiness depends on how our favourite teams/players perform. And when we don't win we become angry and lose our peace, that is: we are breaking the first three of the Ten Commandments.

It's sad to see millions of adult men spend all their lives lying on a couch, watching sports, and drinking alcohol, while they could instead be real men for their families, and do something useful for God's glory, and the salvation and betterment of man.

Moaz by Alan Wainwright

1 6

As Canada's capital city Ottawa is the venue for many political and religious demonstrations. The monument at the intersection of Elgin & Lisgar is known as The Human Rights Monument is often used as the gathering point for such demonstrations.

I came across a group of Egyptians who were demonstrating against the current military regime in Egypt. Their record of human rights abuses, lack of due process under the law and restrictions on religious freedoms were all on the agenda of this group.

I was talking to a young man about the demonstration, but he was reluctant to have his photograph taken, another young man approached and introduced himself.

Meet Moaz, a young Egyptian who has only been in Canada 3 months. He is in Canada as he is vocally opposed to the current regime in Cairo.. His journey to Canada was not easy, as travel in and out of the country is restricted. Moaz, a student came to Canada via Soudan and Turkey.

Moaz is hoping to study in Canada, however his ultimate goal is to return to Egypt should there be a regime change.

We have only skimmed Moaz's story and the situation in Egypt, due to the volatility of the political climate many things are best left unsaid.

Thank you Moaz, your story is compelling. I wish you all the very best in your new country and hope conditions change allowing you to return to your homeland.

This is my 4th picture in The Human Family Project.
