Will You Stop Writing About Me Already?
And grab me a beer

Ok, I couldn’t resist one last time.
I woke this morning to hear the news we have ALL been waiting for.
A result.
And, while certainly, it is not the result that everyone wants to hear, it is a result nevertheless. Despite the blusterings and desperate attempts to deny the inevitable, we can all finally take a second to sit back and savour the moment.
So, even though it is still technically late morning here in Central Canada, Guinness and I are going to enjoy a cool one in celebration.
Of course, we must recognize there is still a very long road ahead with painful obstacles, but the fact is, the democratic process has prevailed. Enjoy this for now though. We deserve a chance to relax.
In the coming days and weeks, the inflated Orange will test the patience of us all some more. But. I’m reminded of a particular phrase when I consider the behaviour of the petulant child that currently resides in The White House.
A coward dies a thousand times before his death — William Shakespeare
There can be no other way to describe a man who chooses to play golf rather than face the undeniable truth of his demise. He spent four years sewing the seeds of fear and doubt, and now, that is exactly how his end will come. And, so it will go.
The drama will continue, and people will continue to hurl unspeakably vile insults at one another. Don’t expect this particular kind of coward to go quietly. He won’t.
It is always darkest before the dawn— Thomas Fuller
When dawn comes we’ll rejoice again, and then the hard work will begin, repairing the wounds of a fractured nation.
Until then my friends, Guinness and I leave you with an Irish salute;
Slainte!
As always, thanks for taking the time. Liam Ireland Tree Langdon, CPA, CGA Britni Pepper Terry Mansfield Myriam Ben Salem Jessica Lynn Agnes Laurens Dr. Mehmet Yildiz
