Grizzlybur
My main interests are Canadian cultural heritage, and just about all things Canadian!
I prefer to keep it largely anonymous on the fediverse, respect that as you can please. But, there are some things I don’t mind sharing about myself!
I am French Canadian (second generation Franco-Ontarien), but through circumstances of how I was raised I am only now learning French as an adult. I am currently at the B1 level. I often post and reply in French speaking communities as applied practice.
I am a trained historian, with a MA in history, and in my spare time I often am researching and learning about both Canadian and French Canadian history, culture, and art. This research is often the source of inspiration for my posts. Ultimately, I aspire to one day own land in Quebec around either Quebec city or outside of Montréal.
I am the same person as grizzlybur@lemmy.ca. I often use this username across multiple services, but not every Grizzlybur is actually me.

I run a few small communities on the fediverse, and its tough trying to start one up. Granted I try to keep mine canadian focused, but its an uphill battle either way. I was never one to volunteer or be an admin of a community, but I wanted to get the ball rolling somehow. Very disheartening to realize I’m the only one posting in the community, esp because I’m just a lurker at heart.
That, and hobbyist bullet reloaders would use these to melt lead to cast into cheap bullets. Once you melt lead in the pan it will never be food safe again, I’d go as far as to drill a hole into the bottom so no one tries.
