“When everyone else settled back into the routine of school and work after Labour Day, I went on a road trip to Grey Bruce County. We stumbled upon the most amazing Airbnb , which turned out to be a 420-friendly accommodation (that means cannabis for some of you). Set in a magical, countryside location one hour south of Tobermory, Ontario this is a year-round haven for outdoor lovers, nature seekers, and those just wanting some peace. It also happens to be a writing retreat, with bunkies named after famous Canadian authors, and a must see secret garden. Wait until you hear about the goats....”

And now a word from our editor...

When I ask, “how are you?” the answer I get from most people these days is, “I’m tired.” 😷

Actually, I don’t really want to think about 2020 anymore… Let me tell you about flash stories instead. They’re much more fun! 

This issue of the Dreamers Magazine has 4 winning flash stories inside. We are also so proud to present the flash fiction story, “The Cats,” by Dawn Ryan. Dawn has won the 2021 Pen Parentis Writing Fellowship for New Parents. 

Make sure you read the interview with Nicole Crimi, medical student at McMaster University, and author and illustrator of the children’s book, Patty and the Pandemic.

Inside these pages you’ll also find book reviews and even more heartfelt (and heartbreaking) stories. 

As always, thanks for reading. In an exhausting world, it’s the Dreamers out there that give me hope.

Thank you to our Elevationist friends at the International Church of Cannabis!

Elevationism started in Denver, Colorado with a small group of individuals unsatisfied with the outdated, organized religion currently available to them.

Church members are called Elevationists - a lifestance is that an individual’s spiritual journey, and search for meaning, is one of self-discovery that can be accelerated and deepened with ritual and mindful cannabis use.

If you believe cannabis consumers deserve a spiritual home, and you want this church to remain an international symbol of our religious freedom, please donate at elevationists.org/donate/

Hello and Supporters of . I’ve been helping with 13 years of that evolved into , kit distribution and product donations for people or those living in , in and around , and .

I am reposting this announcement from the S2S, Open Minds Respect EventsEvents founder and lead organizer Tomy Bewick.

We would like to keep this good work going forward, but after a lot of thought and reflection, I need to personally take a break from organizing, collecting, hosting and distributing. This doesn't mean that I am done for good, it just means that I won't be leading the charge or doing things like I did before. I'm not sure what that means, but this is a call out for people in Toronto, Halton and Hamilton areas to get involved and possibly take the reins this coming season.

I'm open to questions, but mostly fishing for others to step up, if they're able, and help continue the good work we've invested in for the past decade plus.

You can send a private message with an email address if you think you want to organize; or use our page as a place to discuss with the many other caring volunteers that have been a part of this journey over the years.

Thank you to all who have supported over the years; please know this is isn't the end; just a new beginning.

Please visit facebook.com/straight2thestreets/

All the blessed, in kindness and respect,

for 13 years we ran an annual, volunteer driven, clothing & survival kit drive for less fortunate, in the streets. connecting community resources, unifying efforts and impact. check the page for resources and partners. we are not planning any 2020 events.
