Thank you Edmund for taking the time to talk to me! I can't wait to share all I've seen and learned on this amazing trip to Hopedale!
Out on the land, near Hopedale, Labrador, @JoelScience is conducting an interview with a Nunatsiavut beneficiary and local prospector, Edmund Saunders. Production is underway for new @NRCanScience videos that will highlight @GSC_CGC GEM-GeoNorth science and northern engagement.

How DO you measure a glacier?!?
Climb aboard🚁 We’re headed to Nahanni National Park with our tour guide & scientist Mark Ednie as he measures a glacier! Watch this #SimplyScience video to see how and why it’s done! #ArcticScienceMonth
Really proud of this video that @Roger_Paulen and I put together! Please check it out!
A video project that I have been working on with @JoelScience is now live. This is a video highlighting @GSC_CGC research in northern Canada in support of mineral exploration, aimed at the general public. Check it out at: youtube.com/watch?v=83jASwSi…

But look at that face!!!
Koalas are dumb. Due to smooth brains they lack higher-level recognition and understanding other animals enjoy. Take a eucalyptus leaf, which they eat constantly, put it on a plate instead of a tree, and they won't know what the hell they are looking at and will not eat it.
