The Lilyest Hobo.

This will probably only mean something if you're Canadian. Or a Story Hour listener.

Canada's Next Prime Kitten.

For those of you who don't follow Canadian politics, this is Michael Ignatieff, the recently appointed leader of the Liberal party. As a future possible Prime Minister of Canada, it is a national requirement that he digs kittens. Thanks to CWC tipper Bridgeen.

The Blue Horse

Hey Chris, I saw your post on the blue horse three days ago. Funny ~ today (April 9 show) on CBC Radio on Q,  Jian Ghomeshi was interviewing people of Denver on the 'get rid of the Blue Horse' campaign.  The podcast will be up tomorrow.

Sean from MASSACHUSETTS writes: "...Hello Chris, I am looking to plan a short trip up to Canada in a few weeks and thought i'd pool you and your Canadian viewers for suggested spots to visit.  I am from the East Coast and would thusly stick to the easter side of Canada.  I plan on analyzing the vast differences   between Canadian kittens and American kittens, but aside from that I'm   unsure on how to occupy my time and where to visit. Thanks, Sean Massachusetts.

I think Tim Horton's should advertise on Chris' blog... Look I've been invited to "Please Play Again"... I did win a free coffee last week! "

Exile

Allen in SEATTLE writes: "...Dear  Chris: This is the home of some Canadians who live in Seattle.  We have had more snow this week than we typically get in a year.  The whole town is pretty much shut down because unlike Canada, Seattle doesn't have any snowplows.   I hope this picture evokes warm memories of Christmas in Manitoba or wherever it is that you're from." Allen in Seattle, 53teen.

Bunnyhug.

Chris 32teen from TENN writes: "...Dear Chris, Because my daughter is 10 and not 32teen like I am, I have imparted pieces of information you have given to viewers like the fact that in certain regions of Canada Hoodies are in fact called "Bunny Hugs". Which in turn made my daughter want to make a speech in her 5th grade class about the "Bunny Hug".We moved from California to TN and had never heard the term. Attached is her actual speech which she researched and wrote. Sincerely, Chris."

Canada

Many of my international viewers may not know that yesterday was the federal election in Canada.  Ron in NEW BRUNSWICK sent this illustration for possible consideration in the Cute with Chris Button Competition. "Whatever your political persuasion, " he writes, "At least we know Cheddar the kitten will have a roof over his head."
