Jour de la Patinoire leads today's complete edition for Canada.
Daily Edition
Official observances, world days, local context, and everyday celebrations for people who need something worth reading, sharing, or talking about today.
Every Canadian dad who ever wielded a garden hose in subzero temperatures knows this ritual. Flood it at night, let it freeze by morning, shovel the snow off after work, and repeat until spring. The backyard rink is where Gretzky learned and where every Canadian child learns that ice is never flat enough.
You spot musk oxen, Arctic foxes, polar bears, and ringed seals in Greenland's Arctic tundra and coastal waters. You find that Greenlandic families keep sled dogs (particularly the Greenland dog breed), hunting dogs, and occasionally sheep and arctic foxes. ACADA celebrates the world's pets, and helps assure better care.
