think.

And I hadn't played any trad music as a kid.

And like, it just wasn't part of our family.

You know, like it wasn't something that my like older relatives did um so I grew up learning violin went through the orchestra system did all that I was really lucky to do all that and then uh my only the only time I actually came near a session when I was a child was I went on holiday with my dad and my uncle and their friend and Paul Cole, who actually sadly died at the start of this year.

And we went to, actually, I think it was Ackle Island.

And he said to me, I had the violin with me and he said, well, go on, like play us something.

I can't remember what I played, like probably whatever I was doing for my grade at the time.

careful.

And that much about that

...

I was in Calgary this week for a annual Canadian vote summit that, that, uh, it's a national org, uh, gathering every year.

It's the first time it's been held in Western Canada.

Brought it to Calgary this year.

I'm part of the advisory committee, and we, the whole conversation's about strengthening dem- democratic institutions, and you have civil society leaders, you have politicians, you have academics, you have electoral officers.

And to your point, that is, I agree with you 100%, democracy is about who shows up.

Uh, do you agree with what she has to say?

Do you have more beef sticks you can sell people, ma'am?

Absolutely.

Um, Steve, today we're promoting our all-natural beef sticks.

I actually have one right here.

This is our original flavor.

I eat them every single day.

I promise you, this is the best beef stick you've ever tried.

I want people to go and hang on the website and they'll find the beef sticks right at the front, but I want them to look at all your beef offerings.

Uh, your, your thoughts on that?

Thanks so much, Natalie, uh, for having me on.

This is very alarming, uh, for the agriculture industry, um, at large around the country.

Um, this is an instance that we've actually seen before.

Um, there is a disease that has infected the citrus grove industry in th-, in Florida, which has almost completely wiped out the entire citrus industry in the state of Florida, which is o-, was one of their top, um, industries.

And so, this is, you know, this is the same playbook that the communists use.

And yesterday, as you know, was the 36-year anniversary of Tiananmen Square.
