Well, Halloween has come and gone and SA¹ú¼ÊÓ°ÊÓ´«Ã½” for the history books SA¹ú¼ÊÓ°ÊÓ´«Ã½” there was snow on the ground, but it was not too cold. Halloween is an interesting neighbourhood-type of socializing for parents, kids, and homeowners. I always enjoy seeing the little ones in their costumes, although I do sometimes wonder when it comes to dividing up the spoils, who gets what.

My last two articles were about NDEs SA¹ú¼ÊÓ°ÊÓ´«Ã½” near death experiences.

Energy is clearly one of the top issues facing the NWT. ItSA¹ú¼ÊÓ°ÊÓ´«Ã½™s too expensive, too elusive and too dirty.

This past Sunday night, only a handful of people turned out to an election forum at Weledeh school. Yet we are in the middle of a campaign that will affect all of us for the next four years.

This isnSA¹ú¼ÊÓ°ÊÓ´«Ã½™t a story about whether Buffy Sainte-Marie SA¹ú¼ÊÓ°ÊÓ´«Ã½” musical icon, activist, community member and beloved Auntie SA¹ú¼ÊÓ°ÊÓ´«Ã½” is biologically Indigenous. Rather, itSA¹ú¼ÊÓ°ÊÓ´«Ã½™s more important to understand the deep impact a CBC report casting doubts on the singerSA¹ú¼ÊÓ°ÊÓ´«Ã½™s ancestry is having across Indigenous lands SA¹ú¼ÊÓ°ÊÓ´«Ã½” and how the fallout from the report shows what reconciliation is not.

I have come across a great treasure.

So what will this election be all about?

Do you believe in ghosts or spirits of the departed? Ones who can return to visit places that meant a lot to them when they were alive? Surely, you will agree, that the Gold Range Hotel is probably haunted, especially around Halloween.

Today, I thought ISA¹ú¼ÊÓ°ÊÓ´«Ã½™d talk about how we age, because people live much longer than in the past. Yet, many of us donSA¹ú¼ÊÓ°ÊÓ´«Ã½™t really understand the changes to our bodies as we get older.

Is a relationship worth salvaging when you know, deep down, youSA¹ú¼ÊÓ°ÊÓ´«Ã½™re past the point of repair? How can you tell if youSA¹ú¼ÊÓ°ÊÓ´«Ã½™re ready to move on or that one foot you have in the door is there for a reason?
