    Thank you, Creekside Market, for strongly promoting B.C. and Canadian products in your Pique ad in the Feb. 28 issue. Excellent! Also a big thank you for whoever put the Canadian flags on the overpass at Nordic, and all other Whistlerites who have hung Canadian flags. We must be strong and stand together as Canadians of all backgrounds. Do not be complacent. What is evolving here in Canada (Whistler, you are included) is a foreign interference to break down this country.

    Thanks to Italian publisher Neri Pozza, Sparks is coming out in Italian and thanks to two Italy-based academics I’ll be on a four-day seven-lecture tour of the country from Rome to Naples to Milan to Pavia to Florence. I’ve put all the details of the tour on the usual speaking/media page but I thought I’d mention how I like the way the book is being presented.

    Le zolle tettoniche che formano la Cina l’hanno resa una scacchiera di montagne, fiumi e ricordi. Da sud, la zolla indiana si è spinta contro quella eurasiatica, formando la catena dell’Himalaya e il vasto Altopiano Tibetano,che fa quasi da barriera tra il Paese e il resto del continente.

    I Have No Enemies: The Life and Legacy of Liu Xiaobo by Perry Link, the leading Western chronicler of dissent in China, and a Chinese colleague who writes anonymously as Wu Dazhi is the definitive biography of the most famous dissident in the nearly seventy-five-year history of the People’s Republic of China. The book, long and necessarily ambitious, is also a tour de force survey of Chinese political thought, activism, and dissent over the past half-century.

The dystopian movie that proved to be all-too real. Read the @mjdanganguan weekly essay on "Ten Years," a Hong Kong film that predicted the city's sad state today. Bilingual. No paywall. https://t.co/Jt301rAU69 https://t.co/jr2BCtekUa
