Hi @CBCEdmonton friends,
If you need a little break today while you’re thinking about @Adrienne_Pan…
I’ve put my credit card down @hallwaycafe & your coffee is on me today…just show them your CBC ID.
Please take care of yourselves in this tough time.
Thinking of you all ❤️

The story I didn't know I needed today: Valley Bakery in Winkler, MB is selling 'Tim Wiebes' doughnuts, and 'reached out to guys named Tim Wiebe and asked which donuts were their favourites.'
JUST NOW: @fortesalatifi on the children of the insurrectionists, and how KIDS are now concerned about their PARENTS' online activities:
"Now it is how do I keep my parents from getting radicalized on Facebook... it has entirely flipped what people who study extremism work on."
