Your right.It was wild.It was really snowing hard with the sun shining also.Crazy day

At one point the front of my house was sunny with a bright blue sky

And in the back of the house it was dark gray clouds like a storm was rolling in ..

Crazy is a good word for today's weather

Your new PM is doing us all proud!

We are all pretty impressed with him too.

Yesterday was the 'Speech from the Throne', where the government lays out their plans for the next Parliament, and instead of bringing some big-wig politico, he brought one of our wounded soldiers from Afghanistan to sit beside him.

It's the first time our military has been a feature of the speech.
