One thing I do not want to get lost are changes under Bill 38, Red Tape Reduction Statutes Amendment Act. It changes what the OCYA can and must report. Her office must report on deaths under the age of 18, but will only have discretion to report up to the age of 20 minus a day...

“Thursday’s appearance sealed an impression of Mr. Gretzky most have had for years, but did not publicly express. That he’s the sort of guy who got out of here as fast as he could, and never comes back unless it’s to make a few bucks or get his tires pumped.”

I was electrocuted, beaten, stabbed in the leg and starved after being captured while defending my home and family in Mariupol. We held back Putin’s invasion for several weeks while Russia slaughtered over 25,000 predominantly Russian speaking Ukrainians including women and children.

I saw the Kanye ad yesterday (it aired in the Philly market, where we were) but didn't click on the link. Today I found out it went to a website selling swastika T-shirts. This was a Superbowl ad. And it was to a website selling swastika T-shirts. I feel like I'm losing my mind.

If Canada's in the mood for some fun and not afraid of the US, we should find $1 billion dollars and offer to fund the labs of top US scientists who move their work here.

Canada actually shares a border with Denmark. Perhaps we should at least publicly explore the idea of joining the EU. That would drive the Orange One even more bonkers.

I spoke with the owner of a small NY manufacturing firm. Most of his sales are exports. Biggest markets: Canada, China & Europe. He never thought Trump would actually impose tariffs; figured it was just campaign talk. If they go into effect, he fears he’ll have to lay off most of his 65 employees.

Here's the speech if you haven't heard it. 13 minutes of your time. Share it with your American friends and neighbours, because they won't see it otherwise. Circulate it in Mexico and Denmark, France and the UK, Panama and Germany, Poland and Estonia, and especially -- especially -- Ukraine.

Auschwitz was at the end of a long process. It did not start from gas chambers. This hatred was gradually developed by humans. From ideas, words, stereotypes & prejudice through legal exclusion, dehumanization & escalating violence... to systematic and industrial murder. Auschwitz took time.

According to the City of Paris, in the last 10 years 150,000 trees have been planted and 45 hectares of parks created in the city, all intended to not only improve quality-of-life today, but also help the city adapt to and manage summer heatwaves of 50℃ (122F) by 2050. Plant a lot more urban trees.
