Halifax Explosion : 100 Years On. February 2018


From the Curio channel: News in Review. It's considered one of the deadliest disasters in Canadian history. On December 6, 1917, two vessels collided in Halifax Harbour. One was carrying explosives.

It's an accident that scarred the city and its residents for decades. One hundred years later, we look back on the events of that harrowing day and how it continues to impact people, families and communities today.

Tout le monde!

Gravel, Elise.


Traduction de: Everybody! Petits ou grands, jeunes ou âgés, nous sommes tous uniques! Mais nous sommes aussi tous les mêmes, car nous sommes unis par les émotions que nous ressentons. Tout le monde a des moments de joie, de tristesse ou de peur. Tout le monde fait des erreurs, se sent fatigué ou a besoin d’aide de temps en temps. Même si nous sommes tous différents, nous sommes en réalité plus similaires que nous ne voulons bien l’admettre. Le plus important, c’est que nous devons tous être acceptés comme nous sommes.

Crown of feathers

Pau Preto, Nicki.


In a world ruled by fierce warrior queens, a grand empire was built upon the backs of Phoenix Riders--legendary heroes who soared through the sky on wings of fire--until a war between two sisters ripped it all apart. Sixteen years later, Veronyka is a war orphan who dreams of becoming a Phoenix Rider from the stories of old. After a shocking betrayal from her controlling sister, Veronyka strikes out alone to find the Riders--even if that means disguising herself as a boy to join their ranks. Just as Veronyka finally feels like she belongs, her sister turns up and reveals a tangled web of lies between them that will change everything. And meanwhile, the new empire has learned of the Riders' return and intends to destroy them once and for all. Crown of Feathers is an epic fantasy about love's incredible power to save--or to destroy. Interspersed throughout is the story of Avalkyra Ashfire, the last Rider queen, who would rather see her empire burn than fall into her sister's hands.
