I purchased new kitchen counters from my local Home Hardware, made in Canada, and they are amazing and I love them. Same price as buying from Home Depot. And they came and measured for free and they fit perfectly. They delivered too.

An important update from Francesca Albanese, special UN Rapporteur on Palestine. The flotilla fully complies with International Law. Any attempt to violate the flotilla’s mission is a violation of International Law which @vonderleyen.ec.europa.eu has said she will uphold. Empty words, Ursula?
