Never thought I’d see the day when Ontario was back on top - first time since 1987. Happy for the province of Ontario, for two former Knights, and for a Finnish coach who deserves a shot at the NHL.

Tom Steyer: “I’m totally in favor of trans athletes in high school. When you understand the vulnerability, the stress, the danger of being a trans kid and you understand almost half of them try to commit suicide. Then you think we’re gonna punish those kids, we’re gonna cut them off from team sport. It’s like, no we’re not”

I can’t believe I’m saying this, but there’s only the NDP and Greens are the only nationwide parties ideologically committed to LGBT rights.

Avi Lewis on his Jewish anti-Zionist roots: "I come from a long tradition, a multi-generation tradition of Jewish anti-Zionism ... as long as there's been formal pro-Israel Zionist organizations, there's been a tradition that has disagreed with that within the Jewish community."

[Roman Fisher @RomanFisher__]

All politics aside, I’m glad to see we have a PM who seems to care about the monarchy and the heritage of our country that is rooted in the crown.

Please my statement on the shooting at Temple Emanu-El.

@all60chlpod Looking forward to it. The pod always makes my week a little bit better!

[Avi Lewis @avilewis]

"I don’t believe we need to spend 2% of our GDP on military spending, as we need that money for other things, including the climate emergency, which is costing us more money while destroying towns and filling our lungs with smoke. The idea that we should now move to 5% of GDP is a destructive and nihilistic fantasy, pouring fuel on the climate fire."

[Mayor Zohran Kwame Mamdani @NYCMayor]

I am at 770 Chabad World Headquarters in Crown Heights, where a man intentionally, and repeatedly, crashed his car into the building. I am relieved that no one was injured in this horrifying incident.

This is deeply alarming, especially given the deep meaning and history of the institution to so many in New York and around the world. Any threat to a Jewish institution or place of worship must be taken seriously. Antisemitism has no place in our city, and violence or intimidation against Jewish New Yorkers is unacceptable.

I stand in solidarity with the Crown Heights Jewish community, and I am grateful to our first responders for taking swift action. I will keep New Yorkers updated as we learn more about the incident.

Charlie Kirk didn’t deserve to die

George Floyd didn’t deserve to die

Ashli Babbitt didn’t deserve to die

Iryna Zarutska didn’t deserve to die

Renee Good didn’t deserve to die

Why is this so hard for people to understand?

[Ontario Hockey League @OHLHockey]

A legacy of leadership from one of the game's great builders.

The #OHL is mourning the loss of David Branch, Commissioner of the #OHL over a span of 45 years from 1979-2024, who passed away on Sunday at the age of 77.

Venezuela needs to be free from Maduro. The US should not invade Venezuela.

Two things can be true at the same time.

[Kyle Cushman @Kyle_Cush]

A former Brock University goaltender just made Canada’s men’s Olympic hockey team.

Logan Thompson is without a doubt one of the best stories in hockey. OUA to the ECHL and now an Olympian. And well deserved at that.

[Mayor Olivia Chow 🇨🇦 @MayorOliviaChow]

Yes, the Finch LRT is too slow. I know, I rode it twice

It has to move faster. I'll bring a council item to give it signal priority, and see what else we can do.

[Emily Lowan @Emily_Lowan]

Mark Carney and Danielle Smith’s MOU is an abuse of power and a spit in the face to British Columbians. They will never ram a pipeline through BC without the consent of Coastal First Nations and Northern Communities, and we’ll make fucking sure of it. #bcpoli

[Green Party of Canada @CanadianGreens]

The federal government’s new deal with Alberta guts key federal climate protections and ignores Indigenous rights. Climate action and Indigenous rights are non-negotiable. This deal betrays both.

[Peter Julian 🇨🇦 @MPJulian]

British Columbians must unite to oppose Carney’s pipeline and the tankers in the North Coast that threaten our environment, tourism and the economy. #SayNoToTankers Say no to Carney’s pipeline project, and tell your MP to stop the pipeline and protect our coast now.

[Don Davies @DonDavies]

Calling out each and every BC Liberal MP: are you going to stand with BC, our coastal waters, communities and Indigenous nations or support PM Carney as he tramples over these, puts our economy at risk and deepens the climate crisis?
