Yes was born in Toronto, lived in Toronto and on the outskirts of the City as it grew to 6 million people. Still love certain parts of it, but it has gotten so crazy. Lived in Germany as a child for 3 years. Wanted to move to Salt Spring Island, but didnt get there either. Was not feasible, with family in Ontario. I have been to Alberta 5 times. Two of my children lived there for quite some time. Now one is here in Nova Scotia and the other in Ontario. Yes we eat lots of fresh fish from here and seafood. It is a most wonderful place. The growing season is much the same as in Ontario. Winters are wet. They dont really start until January. It is a poor province though as far as what the province can provide as we only have one million people in the whole province. But it is rich in so many other ways. Such a wholesome goodness from the people and the land. So much fresh air and open land and water. I love the beach and we have lots of unspoiled beaches. yes I dont like labels. I have tried it all. Vegan, vegetarian, blah blah. I eat what mother nature intended me to eat. Real food ..that works for me. xx
