Randy and Tal Bachmann were both just on GB News live.

 

 

They got to talking about how Harry and Megan were here, and they said "they" (Randy and Tal) live just 100 yards from Deep Cove Chalet, on the water.

 

 

Randy did not look great, but I guess he is 78.

They spend too much time in Marys Bleue Moon.

“…Leaving her Hollywood life behind, Pamela has made her way back to her home town of Ladysmith, BC. and gears up to tackle this massive renovation. But she’s not in it alone — after all, the key to any dream reno is to assemble a dream team. Her husband and local carpenter Dan Hayhurst, her mother Carol Anderson, and a local crew of designers and craftspeople are up for the challenge..”: https://www.hgtv.ca/...canada-1949486/

She did a good job on Tool Time.

Ah yes the 'CCB'......arguably the best known most famous Canadian animation production ever ('the Sweater' which was a 1980 classic short about a boy from Quebec who places an order for a jersey of his favourite ice hockey team ie the HABS. However, much to his chagrin, he is sent a Toronto Maple Leafs sweater! Sacrilege!), but the 'CCB', released in 1988, was definitely an instant smash hit that rates right up there.

Paw Patrol much more famous.




They work together on missions to protect the shoreside community of Adventure Bay and surrounding areas. Each dog has a specific set of skills based on emergency services professions, such as a firefighter, a police officer, and an aviation pilot. They all reside in doghouses that transform into customized vehicles, or "pupmobiles", for their missions. They are also equipped with special hi-tech backpacks called "pup packs" that contain tools relating to the pups' jobs.

Mega millions of dollars. Canada produced.

Didn’t some members of Victoria council object to Paw Patrol?
