I'm doing it again.
I'm a year in with a couple of young partners.
And, you know, I've got a young guy named Ali Hamid with me who's 30.
Now he's 32 or 33.
And I've got my son.
Who joined me.
It took me 10 years to convince him to do that.
He didn't want to do it.
But I've got his partner, Alex, with me.
And it's fun to build.
And then success to me is... I find success defined at the Thanksgiving dinner table in this country.
I don't even know if you have Thanksgiving in Canada.
So we... We...
It's my favorite holiday of the year.
It's more favorite than any other holiday, birthdays, Christmas, Hanukkah, anything, because it's all about your family.
It's not about giving forced gift giving.
I don't have to go buy a gift because it's Christmas.
It's just you sit at the table and you're just happy to be there.
And there's no pressure.
I just love Thanksgiving.
