- Canada Day and Canadian Science Fiction
Canada Day always reminds me how many of my favourite science fiction writers turn out to be Canadian. From celebrated authors to passionate fandom and the Aurora Awards, Canada has quietly made an outsized contribution to speculative fiction—and it’s a legacy I’m proud to be part of. - Ridley Scott, The Dog Stars, and a Few Lingering Burn Scars
Ridley Scott is one of those directors whose films automatically move to the top of my watch list. But after the disappointment of Gladiator II, I’m approaching his return to science fiction with a little more caution than usual. Based on the trailer for The Dog Stars, though, there are plenty of reasons for optimism—from its apparent focus on human relationships to Scott’s long history of creating unforgettable science fiction worlds. - National Eat Vegetables Day and the Future of Meat
National Eat Vegetables Day may seem like an unlikely inspiration for a science fiction discussion, but current debates about meat consumption raise fascinating questions about the future. As health concerns, environmental pressures, and changing social attitudes converge, SF readers are uniquely positioned to ask where these trends might lead. Will meat remain a permanent feature of human civilization, or will future generations view it as an outdated and unsustainable practice? - Why Every Sci-Fi Fan Should Try Photographing the Night Sky with Their Phone
Modern smartphones have become surprisingly capable astronomy cameras, making it easier than ever to capture stars, planets, and even the Milky Way. But the real appeal isn’t the technology—it’s the experience of looking up at the night sky and connecting with the vast universe beyond our everyday concerns. For science fiction readers, photographing the cosmos can be a powerful reminder of why we look to the stars in the first place. - Readers Never Actually Fell Out of Love with Space Opera
For years, science fiction seemed determined to convince us the future would be smaller, darker, and more cynical than the present. But readers never actually abandoned space opera. They still wanted starships, exploration, galactic civilizations, and futures worth fighting for. Now, as film, television, and publishing slowly rediscover large-scale science fiction, it feels like space opera is finally stepping back into the spotlight — jet packs and all.
