Friends, I know there is a tremendous amount of love and positive energy on this forum; can I ask you to direct some of it to Canada today, and especially the Iranian-Canadians lost in the Ukrainian Airlines disaster yesterday, and their friends, families and communities.

There is a fairly significant Iranian-Canadian contingent in my neighbourhood; I am sick at all the connections to people lost, but of course, this is nothing compared to those close to them.

For whatever it's worth, but sending love can't hurt at least.

Thanks xoxo
