Early spring along the western coast of Hudson Bay near Arviat, Nunavut — where frost still clings to the tundra, but the land begins to stir. In the subtle shift of light and texture, the season turns quietly, one breath at a time.

The wind off Hudson Bay is still sharp, still heavy with salt and cold, but something is shifting.

The setting sun paints the snow-covered shores of Arviat with soft hues where the frozen expanse of Hudson Bay meets the land. Wind-sculpted drifts create a stark beauty under the fading light, a silent testament to the Arctic winter giving way to the subtle promise of spring.

A surprising pop of purple! This young apple seedling—grown from a 30-year-old Gala tree—is showing off deep reddish-purple leaves. A beautiful reminder that every apple seed holds a unique genetic story, and nature doesn’t repeat itself.

Deinfluencing is less about rejecting influence and more about choosing intentionality — it’s a quiet philosophy rooted in care, honesty, and enoughness. It invites us to slow down, question the noise, and reconnect with what truly matters.

In Music

Jukebox In Exile is the new country music album from Flin Flon singer-songwriter C.C. Trubiak, blending classic country, honky-tonk, Americana and traditional storytelling into a collection of songs inspired by resilience, community and life in Northern Manitoba. Written during and after the 2025 Flin Flon wildfire evacuation, the album draws influence from country music legends including Willie Nelson, Dolly Parton, Emmylou Harris, Waylon Jennings and George Jones. Featuring the singles "Old Country Songs," "Being Rich" and the charting track "Outlaws Meditation," Jukebox In Exile showcases Trubiak's signature songwriting while celebrating small-town life, northern Canadian culture, queer country music and the enduring spirit of Flin Flon. The album is available now on major music streaming platforms.
Manitoba's own C.C. Trubiak's new album "Jukebox in Exile" dropped on June 5! Check it out!
