Francine Lalonde RIIP: Aug 24

The Deaths in 2014 site lists under January 17:

Francine Lalonde, 73, Canadian politician, MP of Mercier (1993–2004) and La Pointe-de-l'Île (2004–2011)

Her first name is an addition to the "Frank/Francisco/Fanny/Francine..." pattern-cluster and so enough to warrant further investigation.  Note the following from Francine's wiki page:

Francine Lalonde (August 24, 1940 – January 17, 2014) was a politician on the federal (Canada) and provincial (Quebec) levels. Prior to being elected she was a lecturer, teacher and unionist.

As to her birthday, note the following excerpt from my previous post made today re http://pronoiasecrets.blogspot.ca/2014/01/jerome-k-jerome-fire-bird-house.html:

• Sir Henry Maximilian "Max" Beerbohm (24 August 1872 – 20 May 1956)

His birthday is an addition to the "Off By One" pattern-cluster, as in one off from my Grand Daughter's birthday of August 25th.   And because this date has cropped up so frequently in the last few days, consider it an "August 24/26" pattern-cluster.

Since etymology often plays a role in the communication, note the following regarding the surname Lalonde:

•  from the old English pre 7th Century "Laegeland" i.e. "land left lying uncultivated", 

•  The name may also be of French topographical origin for someone who lived in  grove, deriving from the Norse "lundr" through the old Norman French "lund(e)", a grove.   Read more: https://www.surnamedb.com/Surname/Lalonde#ixzz2qlPV1t7Q

Perhaps the sense is "uncultivated grove" (as in meaning left to go unattended), or this could also be a  means of expressing an ultimatum ... that in the metaphoric sense, we are the land that the inner twin world can chose to tend into a beautiful and productive grove or they can choose to let us lay uncultivated?  Perhaps  it is connected with the "red yard" of our previous post and the "fire bird" of the post before that... each of which also involved the date of August 24th.  What comes to my mind is the "cultivation of forest" (making this crop land -- wood to be farmed for building, fire wood/fuel and food )... these types of forests are far more protected from the ravages of forest fires that sweep across forest that are left uncultivated and unmanages.
