By External Source

The Ottawa Ice Dragon Boat Festival will look a little different this year without the usual frenzy of activity coming from the Rideau Canal.

Because of the ongoing pandemic, the dragon boat races have been cancelled, but its companion events will continue. Presented by BeaverTails, its programming will be available for free viewing on its website and YouTube channel from now through Feb. 21.  A festival representative told Samaritan that sports challenge Shiver 'n Giver is the main charitable event in this year's festival, while most of their other funding comes through individual donations.

The Ottawa Ice Dragon Boat Festival is a part of the city’s annual Winterlude event which celebrates winter. Winterlude was started in 1979, but only added the Ottawa Ice Dragon Boat Festival in recent years. – Continue reading Steve McLean’s feature at Samaritanmag.com

Haim Fall In, and Out, and In, and Out of Love in Time-Warping Video For ‘Relationships’

"Queer" actor Drew Starkey keeps coming and going in the clip for the first song in more than two years from the sister trio.

Love is hard, and messy and confusing. That’s the take-away from Haim‘s first new album-tied single in nearly five years. The sister trio dropped their new single, “Relationships,” on Wednesday (March 12), along with a sleek Camille Summers-Valli-directed video in which singer/guitarist Danielle Haim keeps falling in, and out, of love with Queer actor Drew Starkey.

“Relationships, oh/ What’s all this talk about relationships?/ It feels like everyone’s caught up in it/ Oh, just you wait, you must be new to this,” she sings over the song’s snappy drums and subdued keyboards as she packs, and unpacks, her boxes while moving out, unsure if it’s over or worth another chance.
