Toronto born and bred, Ottawa convert. I love language and languages, nature and news.

@NewsroomGC Will it be closed every single one of those days, or just on fireworks days?

If you feel like you're bad at your job and it's making you depressed, just consider that, as the investigation of the recent heist revealed, the password to access the Louvre's videosurveillance system was "Louvre".

@Dean_Winnipeg @CPC_HQ @Dean_Winnipeg I love following you and think you’re hilarious, but I would maybe considering deleting this. I have read that MP Lantsman has a fairly serious autoimmune disease.

FOR THE LAST EFFING TIME: CANADIANS DO NOT ELECT A PRIME MINISTER. EVER. NO CANADIAN HAS EVER CAST A VOTE FOR PRIME MINISTER.
NONE OF THIS IS NEW, OR ILLEGAL OR IRREGULAR OR ANY OTHER BULLSHIT ADJECTIVE YOU TRY TO PIN ON IT.
Sorry for the yelling. But sweet merciful crap 🤦🏼‍♀️

I'd argue for an exception to our 🇺🇲boycott:
COSTCO

COSTCO employs many Canadians. It's one of the only major businesses in the US that resists Trump.

They are refusing to end diversity programs in the face of threats from the White House

I think Costco deserves our business.

Who’s up for the fight to make anything Nazi illegal in Canada?

[Andrea Junker @Strandjunker]

Remember, the Holocaust didn’t start with gas chambers in Auschwitz.

It started with politicians dividing the people with “us vs. them”.

It started with intolerance and hate speech.

It started when people stopped caring, became desensitized, and turned a blind eye.

Remember.

[Bob Rae @BobRae48]

When Sir John A Macdonald died in office, the person who spoke with eloquence about him was his opponent Laurier. When Chamberlain left office, his long time opponent Churchill reached out and praised him. When I left parliament Stephen Harper called me a “patriot”. That spirit has died, but it can be revived. Let us do that in this, Canada’s existential moment. Above all, right now, we are all Canadians, caught in a fight that is not of our choosing or making. But be aware that it is the fight of our lives. Those who dismiss and belittle us, and who then use economic force against us, should know that they have united and aroused us.
