@DaveAlexRoberts I just finished Black Water while overlooking Victoria Harbour in Hong Kong. My heart is full. I also know what I'll be sending my father in Winnipeg for his birthday gift. Thank you.
@JB_MacKinnon I just read The Day the World Stops Shopping. Outstanding! As a teacher of IB Global Politics wish I could just teach your book for two years. Your amazing work could be a high school course on its own. Thanks.
Every evening Ukraine's President #Zelenskyy addresses his nation. Tonight for the first time, he did it in English. Calling on people everywhere to show their solidarity "Come out of your offices and homes, show your support to the Ukrainian people" #UkraineRussiaWar
5 is ours as well, further steps must, by definition be possible. If a country can defy human rights, the rule of law, and destroy human life and snuff out a nation state with impunity because it thinks it has the vetos to protect it, what does this say about us ?
@mikemcintyrewpg I don't agree with everything you write, in fact I thought your implication that all hockey players are entitled was a little harsh. Even if you hadn't lost 107 lbs it literally says "opinion" at the top of your piece. Challenge the opinion not the man. Keep up the good work Mike
Putin underestimated (1) Ukrainian military resistance, (2) opposition to his heinous war within Russia, and (3)Western/NATO unity, especially Germany. The guy is out of touch.
Ukraine has submitted its application against Russia to the ICJ. Russia must be held accountable for manipulating the notion of genocide to justify aggression. We request an urgent decision ordering Russia to cease military activity now and expect trials to start next week.
During his inaugural address in 2019, Zelensky told lawmakers: “I do not want my picture in your offices: the President is not an icon, an idol or a portrait. Hang your kids' photos instead, and look at them each time you are making a decision.”
India's prime minister, Narendra Modi, said he appealed to President Vladimir Putin of Russia for a “cessation of violence,” but he fell short of condemning Russia's invasion of Ukraine. https://t.co/MkQ3W1XS5I
We're now 2 yrs into the decisive decade. Emissions should be in an unprecedented fall, instead we're seeing the 2nd biggest rise ever recorded. We're wasting invaluable time pretending we can solve this crisis without treating it like a crisis. World leaders are still in denial.
@BobIrvingCJOB Here in Hong Kong, I streamed every Bomber game this year, including the Grey Cup via Yare, the CFL's international streaming service. Oh, one exception, had to listen to @BobIrvingCJOB do your last game on the radio so streamed the West Final on CJOB.

In awe of the memoir @SamanthaJPower has written that was gifted to me by one of my Global Politics students. More than a memoir she again calls us to action.
