I love my age. Old enough to know better. Young enough not to care. Experienced enough to do it right.

Different measures of human life according to the mainstream media. #Refugees #Titan

@MapleLeafs Oh this is so sad 💔 He was a part of my life, watching him play with the Leafs on Hockey Night in Canada. RIP. My condolences to his family, friends and teammates. May they take some solace in knowing he was loved 🇨🇦

[Cathie N @Brontegrrl]

I don’t know what breaks my heart more. What happened. This note. Or the impact this has made on family, friends, colleagues and all the first responders. #ShaelynYang #RCMP #BC 💙

Proud to be part of an organization that set aside time today to talk about NDTR. Staff either wore an orange shirt or an “every child matters button.” Learn, listen & reflect. #NDTR2022 #OrangeShirtDay2022

[Oakville Humane @OakvilleHumane]

To mark National Day for Truth and Reconciliation our staff (and Peanut, in foster care) are wearing orange to remember those affected by Canada’s residential schools. The @townofoakville is offering a number of ways to recognize the day at: https://t.co/tQaJSXz9VX.

#OrangeShirtDay #EveryChildMatters

[Dr. Robyn Michaud @GiwedinAnangKwe]

Orange Shirt Day should not be a called or turned into a “celebration”. It is our Remembrance Day. We honour and observe. This day represents many lost children and widespread intergenerational trauma. Its a time to learn and reflect. #EveryChildMatters

Millions of people struggle with insomnia, yet, for decades, scientists have struggled to offer a good solution for it

Now, an explosion in sleep research means we're finally waking up to the causes of the sleep disorder and how we can treat it

@HistoryMuppet Muppets ... gulp... die? Why am I only learning of this now! For the love of Jim Henson, say it ain’t so!

It’s okay not to be okay. It’s also okay to talk about how you’re feeling. You are not alone. You’d be surprised just how many people will grab your hand when you reach out for help. #WorldSuicidePreventionDay #mentalhealth

[CAMH @CAMHnews]

#WorldSuicidePreventionDay is an opportunity to increase awareness & understanding about #suicide, and ways we can prevent it.

It starts by talking about suicide in a destigmatized, non-judgmental way, and having resources on hand that can make a difference in someone's life.

Profanities have their place & often succinctly express the sentiment. Unclench the pearls or look the other way. I thought it was an awesome Tweet & loved the Mayor owned it completely 👸🏻 #Peterborough

[CBC Radio @cbcradio]

"They came to try to arrest the police. Like, that's the bigger issue that we need to be focusing on, not the language that I used to call it out," said Peterborough Mayor Diane Therrien about her tweet.

Are you kidding me? Perfect examples of ageism & misogyny experienced by women. Lisa deserved better. We deserve better. #LisaLaFlamme #BoycottCTVNews

[Robyn Doolittle @robyndoolittle]

Shortly after Michael Melling became head of CTV News, he raised questions about host Lisa LaFlamme’s hair. According to a senior CTV official who was present at the meeting, Mr. Melling asked who had approved the decision to “let Lisa’s hair go grey.” https://t.co/XQb9zb9N65

We lost a very talented person 8 yrs ago. Remembering Robin Williams and sending love to his family today. Always missed and still adored by his fans around the world. RIP #RobinWilliams

[Cathie N @Brontegrrl]

Happy Canada Day ❤️🇨🇦❤️ My nation is far from perfect and has miles to go in some respects, I am a proud Canadian. Whether you wear red & white, orange or a rainbow, I hope this day brings you peace if not joy.

[Cathie N @Brontegrrl]

@dodo I ❤️ pitties. Banning a breed is ridiculous. Human interaction is responsible for a behaviour, good or bad. Perhaps ban those people from owning an animal. Add in media sensationalization without any good stories & people get scared. It’s sad and unfair to any breed.

[Oakville Humane @OakvilleHumane]

We are once again under a heat warning. NEVER leave your pet in your car even for a moment.
If you see an animal in a parked car in distress call OMHS at 905-845-1551. Provide the exact location and details of the vehicle, license, and stay with the animal until help arrives.

@globalnewsto Absolutely heartbreaking. Condolences to his family and friends.

[Cathie N @Brontegrrl]

Yup, it’s been known to happen... and sometimes it can be fun 😉 You may not want to repeat it, but it’s always an experience. 😁

Thanks grandma
