BREAKING🚨 Journalist Mario Guevara has officially been deported Friday from the United States back to his native El Salvador. This is a shameful erosion of press freedom in the U.S. — the first time that CPJ has documented this type of retaliation related to reporting. cpj.org/2025/10/jour...

New Taylor Swift ain't it.

Seven years ago today, Washington Post journalist Jamal Khashoggi was tortured, murdered and then dismembered. And any so-called comedian who can't stand up tonight in Riyadh and do ten minutes on that kind of hijinx and horseplay just isn't worth the Saudi blood money he's being paid.

Nice, super low risk pickup.

Insane story from an absolute circus of a situation that needs resolving immediately.

Over 40% of Americans approve of a President threatening civil war over his fantasy version of his opponents. As a journalist I still feel some obligation to try to understand. As a human I want to stay as far away as possible, and don't know if I'll ever bring my family across the border again.

For @thewalrus.ca, I wrote about the state of reconciliation 10 years after the final report of the Truth & Reconciliation Commission. thewalrus.ca/trc-introduc...

My colleague Bill Metcalfe attended a TR event yesterday that honoured Chanie Wenjack. If you are looking for some hope on this day, you might find it in the students Bill spoke with.

Buying an Alejandro Kirk jersey now. #BlueJays

I’m so pleased to share we’ve renewed this productive partnership with The Canadian Press for another three years. Now, more than ever we need to support trusted journalism to protect Canadians from the harms of false health information.

I'm such a sucker for stories like this. Parenthood is about introducing your kids to your own passions, and accepting with grace and understanding when they don't give a shit.

Did anyone else catch in this trailer that Wolverine is going to Squamish, BC?!

The Toronto Tempo are coming to Montreal! Canadiens co-owner Geoff Molson and team executive France Margaret Belanger have joined the ownership group of Canada's first WNBA team and they will host two regular-season games at Montreal's Bell Centre. www.cbc.ca/sports/baske...

Eleanore Sturko is out of the B.C. Conservatives. Wild story from reporter Mark Page last night of schism in a political party.

Sebabatso Mosamo, an Associated Press visual journalist in South Africa who documented elections, the COVID-19 pandemic and her country's struggle with poverty and violence, has died.

Today in what did we just watch, Ranking Best Pictures with @jchidleyhill.bsky.social and this guy returns with 1963’s Tom Jones! 🧵

This Monday, Conservative MP Rachel Thomas called for support of free speech - even offensive speech - in relation to Charlie Kirk's assassination. Today, the Liberal government announced the Irish group Kneecap is banned from performing in Canada. www.cbc.ca/news/enterta...

I'm going to give some time to the new Cardi B album, but it feels like she is releasing it five years late.

RIP GOAT Be like Robert. Support badass journalism.

Darren Aronofsky has only made one outright science fiction movie, and it's a doozy.

"Howe’s death was also ruled accidental by the same coroner who determined the cause of Creamer’s death. It wasn’t until an autopsy days later that a .22-calibre bullet wound was found in her skull."

"Where is the world? Where are the Arab nations?" This Palestinian girl broke down as she described an Israeli attack that targeted her family’s shelter in Gaza City.

Turns out I relate a lot to Cameron Crowe, especially where he is now in life. Great interview.

I hope you all read this from me.

🇨🇦 Evan Dunfee overwhelmed with emotion after winning gold as he’s greeted by Athletics Canada head coach Glenroy Gilbert. And then he’s greeted by his family who are here in Tokyo and have been there for this long journey. What a special moment for the Dunfee family.

I wrote about Cover-Up, a portrait of the legendary investigative journalist who broke the stories about Abu Ghraib and the My Lai massacre, and the toll that decades of digging in the country's darkest secrets takes on your soul.

Terry Fox community runs are slowly declining across B.C. and Canada, even as the foundation continues to raise record amounts for cancer research. The charity says it is working to reverse the trend with local volunteers.

Those of us who lived through jam-packed, robust newsrooms getting eviscerated by vulture capitalists over the 2000s and 2010s know the saddest part of "The Paper" is that for a paper of that size in 2025, the Toledo Truth Teller has a *massive* staff.

Tuesday marks 60 years since Sandy Koufax threw a perfect game at Dodger Stadium. The 1-0 victory over the Chicago Cubs is still considered one of the best games in baseball history.

Legit going to bring this up with my therapist this week.

This story was a lot of fun to report and write. It also had me sending wild requests to Toronto's mayor and a former premier of British Columbia to see if they too had eschewed "deadbeds" and wanted to sing the praises of flopping onto fluid furniture www.theglobeandmail.com/canada/artic...

There’s so much you can say about Ken Dryden and his impact on Canada, but his advocacy for concussion awareness in hockey shouldn’t be overlooked. He was a major voice in the moment CTE came into the public consciousness.

Nelson’s new $40-million health-care campus is opening 20 years after a hospital on the same site was shut down.

First Scott Thompson, now Malcolm Gladwell. Bummer.

B.C. Infrastructure Minister Bowinn Ma is speaking in Nelson at the opening of the $40-million Nelson Community Health Campus.

Today I found out the comms person at our local school district makes nearly double my salary.

THE PAPER was a great excuse to write about my own newspaper days, which sometimes felt like a sitcom. www.theringer.com/2025/09/04/t...

Am I the only person on Earth who didn't like Hollow Knight?

The U.S.-based Sinixt Confederacy is suing the B.C. government for not consulting the tribe on land and education matters. The Sinixt say the government will only commit to notifying them of decisions relating to their traditional territory.
