Le train est passé pendant que je m'installais encore dans l'herbe, pendant que le sol négociait encore avec mon poids. Des wagons lents, arrondis, sur les voies entre la berge du canal et le silo, en direction du port. J'ai pu lire le côté de l'un d'eux au passage. Saskatchewan ! avec le point d'exclamation....
The train came through while I was still settling into the grass, while the ground was still negotiating with my weight. Slow, rounded cars on the tracks between the canal bank and the silo, heading toward the harbour. I could read the side of one as it passed. Saskatchewan! with the exclamation point. Green paint,...
May 20th, 10 AM. Twenty-three degrees and the wind is moving through the field in a way that keeps changing its mind. I'm sitting near the old Customs House, just off rue McGill, in what is now a wide green space ringed with historical plaques. This is where the first Parliament of the Province of...

It took some listening for me to understand, but I connect with that compulsion to collect and hold something as simple as a dull brown rock. There is something profound about operating at a slower speed and digesting the details

The morning after the election, the city looks the same. Dry streets, brittle air, leaves pressed flat against the pavement. A jogger passes, breath clouding the cold, and somewhere, a car alarm starts and stops. Montréal continues its routine with the precision of muscle memory, a city that knows how to disguise grief. Inside, the...
