There's now a clear 1A and 1B in terms of all-time Blue Jays clinching interview quotes

My 5 year old nephew went to his first Jays game on Thursday and told me “Canada won“ and I can’t argue with that.

THE BLUE JAYS WIN THE AMERICAN LEAGUE EAST DIVISION, I LOVE THESE BLUE BIRD BOYS, LET'S FRIGGIN GOOOO BUDS 💙🐦

BLUE JAYS!!!!! 💙💙💙💙💙🍾🍾🍾🍾🍾⚾️⚾️⚾️⚾️⚾️ Oh, this is joy I needed.

Mega projects are often sold to the public w legacy projects. Something to keep in mind with FIFA. Get it done while the political momentum & will is there. (If Liberals did this we might still have an intact Ontario place). Some Pan Am art survives. “Passage” canoes under Don Mills Rd.

This week I wrote about some of the problems & solutions in Toronto’s ravine system. Some are easy, some are a reachable dreams, like right of ways through all the golf courses, public & private. It’s the 10th anniversary of the unfinished Pan Am Path legacy project. Just finish it!

It's a beautiful day to come find books, magazines, and meet the team at @thelocal.to!

Don’t forget to fill the survey. The boat & jet ski people will. They have the whole lake & there are so few proper swimming areas.

Just rewatched TNG’s “Chain of Command” the other day. youtu.be/UZ3EDTYZTOU?...

We fought the bloodiest civil war this country has ever seen for birthright citizenship. We amended the Constitution. We have all understood what that amendment meant--from the moment it was debated in Congress to this moment now.

There is no measured way to say what I am about to say. If the Supreme Court agrees with the Trump administration to end birthright citizenship, we must end this current Supreme Court. I do not say this lightly.

Zelenskyy's right. 💯.

He’s been a relief worker strung along for *nearly three years now* with promises of a full-time position but this “restructuring” will add that relief work to the full-timers’ load under “dynamic routing” so there’s no need for his group. The media explains none of this to the public, of course 😡

Our Liberal government to my partner in 2022: Time to pay back that $2000 we gave you when your job ended due to COVID! Our Liberal government to my partner this week: Your job with Canada Post is now gone! Our Liberal MP’s leaflet: We’re fighting for you! 🫤

Reminder to Toronto peeps that this Saturday and Sunday is Word On The Street, the beloved festival of authors, books and book lovers. Note: this year the location has been changed to David Pecault Square. More info here:

Nika has decided that we may never remove our temporary box stack from the living room because it is *obviously* meant to be her throne. (Happy #Caturday)

Canada Post workers hit the picket lines in a surprise strike escalation just hours after the federal government announced massive cuts to the postal service. I break down what the government is planning and what some CUPW members think about the proposed changes for @pressprogress.ca

good morning. the sun is asking you to be gentle on yourself today. it's friday. you're almost free

If we're at an inflection point in nation-building, it would be good for Canadians to have a chance to provide input, in some sort of consultative process, into what kind of nation we want to build. An election doesn't constitute the only form of consultation. We're a country, not a central bank.

a lot of people think maria from the sound of music is antifa, but she isn't, she just thinks its a long long way to run

I am begging Canadians to understand that Canada Post, like public transit, should not be a business - it's a service. Canada Post is a lifeline for rural, remote and Northern communities and overall, we need to re-evaluate why people think they "need" random shit delivered ASAP.

Wow, the cold open of Slow Horses is timely.

The thing about being neurodivergent is that I Like It. What I don’t like is that the world imposes numerous taxes on me for being like this. I don’t view it as a Me problem.

Oh, is this ever timely (as someone who straddles the line between Gen X and Millennial and is really Going Through It with brain stuff lately).

It takes a split second of googling to find the evidence. Do not give these "devil's advocates" your time. (Probably a bot since this is well-trod territory, answered many times before, typical phrasing). Sharing the link to so you can too. www.sickkids.ca/en/news/arch...

At some point comfortable ontario might want to say "hold on" but no, they continue to take it.

One time at a CTV party around Season 3 of Degrassi, I was standing in line to get food with some other cast members, and Mulroney came up to us and said "you're on TV, you don't need to wait in line, just go take" and I think about it and how he's a Conservative stooge all the time

AUTISM ANNOUNCEMENT: does anyone wanna come over and build legos

On Trump, autism and tylenol: A student I was talking to today had it exactly right on this latest White House bullshit claim “It’s at the perfect intersection of hating disabled people and wanting women to be in pain” There’s not only no link, the claim is both ableist and misogynist.

SOGC expert Dr. Graeme Smith, spoke to the Canadian Press about the SOGC’s recent position statement reaffirming that acetaminophen remains safe for use in pregnancy. Read more: globalnews.ca/news/1143137...

SOGC CEO Dr. Diane Francoeur was featured in a Canadian Press article highlighting her recent lecture on growing misinformation in women's health care and a rise in negative discourse on contraception tinyurl.com/4kash2wn

The answer may not surprise you! Because it’s yes

The government knowingly putting false information in the label of a drug is crossing a Rubicon that should not be taken lightly

As CNN offers daylong saturation coverage of the podcaster’s funeral, I went back and checked to see how CNN covered Melissa Hortman’s memorial on 6/28, where Walz spoke and Biden/Harris attended. It got about four minutes during the hours it was happening—less than Jeff Bezos’s wedding that day.

Re: my last repost, one concrete action you can take today to try to help keep climate change on the agenda in Canada in the face of our (c)onservative and (C)onservative media is to join The Narwhal. Great reporting, great reporters getting $ for their work, and a tax deduction if you want.

On Thursday, the Climate Institute reported the decline in Canada's GHG emissions had stalled and our 2030 target was no longer reachable. In the two sessions of Question Period that followed, a total of 82 questions were asked. Just 3 of those q's — 2 from BQ, 1 from NDP — were about the report.

You guys, so many Romance girlies are reading "On Tyranny" that they've broken the Goodreads recommendations algorithm. 10/10; no notes. #romancelandia

“What fascisms old and new have in common is they tend to look to women to fill in the gaps that the state misses." And, I'd add, they get women to fill these gaps by making patriarchy's coattails the only way means by which women can achieve security or esteem. www.theguardian.com/us-news/ng-i...

carbon emissions, it’s dumbfounding. The global push for EVs marches upwards, w/ 1 in 4 autos sold, being EVs. Thats huge progress.

What PM Carney & every auto industry leader didn’t want you to know - we were actually close to achieving our 2026 targets for EVs in the auto sales product mix. Then LPC Govt cancelled EV mandate & rebates. For a man who spent his much of his life with statistics & promoting the reduction of

Happy September 21st to those that celebrate!!! 😃 💃🏾🕺🏾

Saturday Night At The Movies - just turned on “The Firm” (1993). It’s probably been about 25 years since I last watched it - I forgot how stacked the cast was (Tom Cruise! Holly Hunter! Gene Hackman! Ed Harris! Jeanne Tripplehorn! Wilford Brimley! And the list goes on!)

Public opinion turned on Ellen because her personality - how she really treats people - was revealed to be 180° from her image. Once you know this stuff, you simply have no appetite for someone like that as an entertainer anymore. That’s a good thing.
