@nejatian There are few better authors for kids or adults.

You can properly assert sovereignty without veering into blasphemy, my friend.

[Phil Taylor (he/him/lui) @PhilTaylorBIZ]

The Messiah has delivered unto us a win for the age, for all ages, having drawn a line on the ice no other nation may cross. For the ice he skates on is ours, and ours alone.

[Justin Trudeau @JustinTrudeau]

You can’t take our country — and you can’t take our game.

Congratulations, Meagan. Journalism is important.

[Meagan Gillmore @meagangillmore]

Journalists get to do this work because people decide (for whatever reason) to talk to us.
Thank you.

@acoyne This is thoroughly amazing and unsettling.

@nejatian Just say no to drugs.

@hscoffield @TorontoStar Thank you for your service to Canada, Heather. It was a pleasure working with you. And be assured there is indeed good life and service after journalism. BCC is fortunate.

[Randall Palmer @RandallEPalmer]

@elonmusk That is repulsive and blasphemous.

[Randall Palmer @RandallEPalmer]

@Daniel_Blaikie My deep condolences. I vividly remember discussing theology with your dad in the Parliamentary Restaurant, probably a rare event. Bill was wonderful.

@MikePMoffatt Not "theory of everything" but you are right that it does play a vital role in determining house prices. It is notable that both graphs show a strong increase even in the less hot markets.

Very grateful to 11 of my brothers from Christian Aid Ministries for cleaning up storm damage in two hours that would have taken me all summer.

@kkirkup Best wishes, Kristy.

@AaronWherry This parallels the argument Stephen Harper made in his book Right Here, Right Now. He did not favour Trump or Brexit but even while opposing them he argued one had to listen to the stories of their supporters.

@jmbryden It was always a pleasure chatting with you in the Centre Block, outside the Booth Building, or across the aisle on the campaign plane. Enjoy the peonies!
