Plant-based food gets thumbs up, in the new Canada food guide 2019, but the focus seems to be on buying as opposed to growing your own. As the discussions heat up on the heels of the newly published Canada food guide, there is a notable shift from meat-based to a plant-based diet in the new recommendations.

| Canada's food guide 2019 |
The Canada food guide suggests buying your fresh produce when it's in season and on sale. It also suggests buying frozen or canned vegetables and fruits where possible,
Even if your grocery bill could stay the same, experts say your preparation time will probably increase.
"We need to not just throw this out to people and say 'here's your food guide', we need to be saying 'how do we get these people -- many of whom haven't spent a lot of time making these basic foods -- how do we get them tooled up to use these foods in a way that doesn't take a whole bunch of time'."
Read more. This, along with the recently legalized wisdom weed in Canada. Though for the most part some allowances were made for the individual to grow a certain amount of the plant, depending on where such an individual happens to resides. In some regions/provinces, Quebec for example, yes one may now go out and buy as much as one wants, but she dare not be caught growing a single plant of her own, another one of those things that makes you go “hmm” big brother is surely pulling the wool over some eyes, ain’t nobody seems to see anything that is going on any more. Big companies go about naming and claiming seeds stacks all over the place and pass off GM food on us. Peasant farms are fast becoming a thing of the past, nowadays, one goes to the store to pick up her supplies. Open your eyes folks. This ain’t no lies. Our all and everything is done gone to the other guys. Well, that’s theirs, their business, now back to ours. Our series continues.

…Rush hour traffic was as it has always been - slow. We went along with the flow, Libby took the opportunity of the slow-moving traffic to venture into telling me more about herself and the family.
Kamal she said, was having a hard time with his newly wedded wife. They had gotten married just over a year ago and immediately went to work Aunting her up. They are now expecting their second child but all is still not well with them.
Selma had arrived from India for the expressed purpose of marriage to Kamal, it was an arrangement. “She is quite a good and decent girl, the proper homemaker and all but Kamal is still not satisfied with her it would seem, he said she doesn't know how to please a man, I suppose that means sexually she added.
Said she's old-fashioned and boring. The problem is, he hasn't been able to articulate the trouble he has been having with her in a way that could make dad and mom understand why he seemed to be so unhappy ever since he has gotten married.”
“But he tells you this?” I asked. “Yes, he tells me everything. We always have a good and open line of communication like that, Kamal and me.”
While she talked, she was playing tossup with my willing right hand, she had picked it up off of the transmission shift lever and thereafter, virtually claimed it as her very own, for the whole duration of the drive from downtown Montreal to her house in the West Island.
The silvery moon on the horizon make her face seemed encircled by a halo every time I turned around and look at her.
She had picked up my hand, the right hand, and placed it palm-to-palm in her left hand, and then covered it over with her right hand. As we talked, she would work on the hand, from tossing it up and down, patting it, rubbing it, on to interlocking fingers, both hers and mine, finger to finger.
She had rest my hand on top of her leg at the point of the knee but as time went by, it slowly inched all the way up her thigh and soon it was right there at the groin area.
She was absentmindedly tracing her fingers all over my hand. She then ran her finger over my fingernails. That was when I heard Bubbles say: “hey, check this out, she is checking for jagged edges dude, you better not be flunking on the manicure routine thing...”
Before long my hand and fingers were working on tracing the inner thigh, she noticeably signed off the radio dial - her radio dial. The talking had slowed, her eyes closed, her head tilted backward, to hit the headrest on the seat, her lips parted.
Gradually, the gate opened and closed, open, and closed. Then opened again, wider, then closed, opened and stayed open. I moved in slowly and slid into her hot, throbbing wetness. “Ahhh...” She exhaled, covered her mouth with the back of her hand and bit on the knuckle of the arched middle finger.
Bubbles again chimed in: "Yes mi fren, mi good fren, we back a street again", he started chirping in, in my inner ear.
"Don't you start that sh*t again," I said, in my inner voice.
To be continued.
