I think upon Mackenzie, Thompson and the rest
Who no doubt would have enjoyed a hot stew as this While in a modern sense comfort foods also help with morale

The mileage far from home
Staying warm by adding hot spices One of my comfort foods hamburgers in gravy with mashed potatoes A very good beef stew. The winter here is averaging -50c so good hearty food helps to stay warm
Behind the wheel
return of the sun! My Kindergarten kids blow out the traditional Coolick, the oil lamp used in ceremonies, this one is for the sun's return after 6 weeks And the sun is up for about 2 hours but it's still -56c windchill
And through the night
the limited daylight we have during the period of darkness. This sign was later wrecked by some kids New Years lunch from my friends
Happy new year
So with the new year, I've also stepped up to help the RCMP with guard detention so in a way I have returned to the Comissionaires but part time. Fireworks during New Years Just some celebration Either adults or kids having fun Little bits of light In what seems like an endless darkness But the light will return And it's gestures like this from my friends that give me hope that all is going to be well.
