UPDATE: MarineLand’s whales have safely made the journey from Niagara Falls to the Pearson Airport in Toronto. Grateful for the police who masterfully guided the trip.
UPDATE: Smooshi the walrus has given birth to a healthy male calf. Here is a first look at the 2 interacting with and exploring their environment. Smooshi is an attentive and protective walrus mother…just like me. #SavedSmooshi
This is the most neutral summary I’ve seen of the Minnesota murder by ICE. It has ALL angles, it syncs them together, and shows the lead up and aftermath… if you watch this all and still think those shots were justified - you just might be a psychopath.
As someone who never stopped physically going to work during COVID - I side with Ontario workers who want hybrid working conditions. I'm an ER doc - and of course I need to physically go to work - just like a truck driver. 👇👇
Forcing people to go to the office 5 days a week is stupid policy. Making them sit in transit 3 hours a day is stupid policy. They can do meetings online. They can decide when a face to face is needed with their manager. They can go in when required.
Hybrid conditions is better for workers because they also happen to be human beings. They have parents and children that need to be cared for. They have a dog that appreciates a noon-hour walk. The cost of transit chips away at their income and puts them into a zombie state.
Even though 99% of my work life is seeing patients I need to attend hospital meetings and those have almost all moved to hybrid. I can fold clothes, I can walk our dogs (which is good for my health) and I can make a home lunch while attending a meeting with headphones on. I can make our kid supper. I value those things as well. Making me commute 3 hours for a 2 hour meeting is policy insanity.
The policy position of the Ontario government and other employers at the end of the day seems mean and punitive to me. Yah - you have the right to force people to the office that need a job - but it's advancing a policy that feels like a jerk.
Driving west on Fanshawe park Road in this fog…. Counted 27 cars only SIX have their headlights on!
TURN YOUR LIGHTS ON PEOPLE!

While driving through moderate winter temperatures today about 95% of people do not have their headlights on.
I don’t think car manufacturers did any favours by having running lights
ICE San Antonio, along with federal agency partners, arrested Sukhpreet Singh, a citizen of India, wanted for aggravated assault and conspiracy to commit an indictable offense in Canada. Criminal aliens will find no refuge in the U.S. We will find you, arrest you and remove you.
For the CBC haters out there, a woman in Western Bay NL just made a point of saying how vital radio is in emergencies like this string of fires. The internet is down, cell service spotty. She's relying on radio for potentially life-saviing information. @CBCAlerts@CBCNews@CBC
I truly hope that the good people of Alberta and Saskatchewan will continue to support Canadian producers and products by boycotting the return of US alcohol to their stores. Smith and Moe are cowtowing to the blight south of the border. Help your fellow Canadians.
