Just spent a few months in Calgary — great place and great community.
I saw many local events and met great people there, with many differences from Montreal where I grew up. The funniest moment was trying to get rubbing alcohol for the fireplay workshop — out there it is kept behind the counter because people drink it.
Tomorrow I head to Vancouver for a week. I have wanted to visit that city for years. I got the chance to be invited to teach at the WestCoast Bound convention. I cannot wait to be there.
After the convention, I head back to Montreal to prepare for the Montreal MBE — with more than 80 performers this year. Many things left to prepare, but luckily I have a great team with me.
Also working to improve Watchtower, a program that monitors news websites for specific keywords. It started with a few hundred sites. Now it scans thousands of sites in less time thanks to better coding and multi-threading.
