Space and Respect
Until I talked to driving instructor Gerry Picard for this issue, I would never have thought that advice for safe driving and a good marriage could be one and the same. “Space and respect,” is what Picard told me is the key to both. Whether you’re in a heated argument with a loved one or experiencing some road rage, the situation likely could have been avoided with these two things in mind. For what it’s worth, I’m not a marriage counselor nor a driving instructor, but I’ll give his advice a try.

October also brings Halloween, so in spirit of the event, Justin Allec talks to local metal and punk bands about their favourite Halloween movies and the genre’s influence on their music, menswear stylist Lyle Morissette provides some advice for attending a masquerade, and our sommelier Jeannie Dubois gives some spooky cocktail ideas.
Plus in the issue, Chef Rachel Globensky serves up a delicious recipe for pumpkin butter, we get a tour of Sleeping Giant Brewery’s new location, Tonya Muchano chats with Magnus Theatre’s new artistic director Thom Currie, and we scratch beneath the surface of Thunder Bay Art Gallery’s new exhibit The Unvarnished Truth: Exploring the Material History of Paintings.
So enjoy the October issue—just please don’t read it while behind the wheel. And if you see me out on the road, give me some space and respect, and I’ll try to do the same.
