If you threaten, obstruct, or attack our law enforcement we will find you, we will arrest you — and you will face justice.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY! American film icon Clint Eastwood turns 96 today!

Review snippets of the 531-page book – My Life as a Reporter – describe it as an excellent, gritty educational tool. It dispels the glamorous "Hollywood myths" about daily journalism, but shows the relentless, unglamorous legwork required to break stories under tight deadlines.

@ProfAllan Allan: Looking forward to some great things from your students. Cal...

[Allan Thompson @ProfAllan]

On a personal level, I just couldn't be more proud of the 17 students in the remarkable first cohort of our Indigenous journalism program. Storytelling really is their superpower. Looking forward to this afternoon's presentation of the video stories they put together this week.

A big thank you to the Kingsville Times for an article on my new book - My Life as a Reporter - available from Amazon. The book covers my 40 years in the newspaper business, including a period with the Windsor Star where I worked in the South Essex Bureau. https://t.co/DkOd4sor2I

Florida woman pulls out her nub after a police officer accused her of texting with her "right hand" while driving, officer gives her a citation anyway.

Officer: "You drove past me, holding the phone with your right hand..."

Kathleen Thomas: *Holds up her handless limb* ...

Officer: "Hand to God, you didn't have your phone in your right hand?"

Thomas while holding up her handless limb: "Hand to God."

On Wednesday, the officer requested a dismissal due to a "lack of evidence."

Tearing down the notice of a missing 14 year old autistic girl, simply because she is Jewish, is evil on so many levels that I don’t even know where to start.

Vile hatred against Jews is moving from an ugly sentiment to dangerous actions.

We must end this now. And make Canada a safe place for Jews and all people.

Happy Birthday to our extraordinary Secretary of State and National Security Advisor, and my dear friend, @marcorubio! 🥳🇺🇸

Appreciate the Kingsville Times doing an article on the book, My Life as a Reporter. When with the Windsor Star in the 60s covered many stories in that area before continuing my career in Toronto. https://t.co/7EQ9cDoT3g

@tonyd1979 Don't recall, but these days forget a lot. Thank you for sending and wish I could remember more from my working days. I don't doubt you email the article, but sometimes things vanish for no readson.

Proof arrived. Missing two chapter markers. New layout necessary. Book is actually available now on Amazon, but without chapter markers rambles from Chapter 10 on page 208 to next chapter marker on page 514. Nothing is missing from the story. https://t.co/LT5HC8VdKM

Last night I flew on an @AirCanada flight #AC779 from Montreal to LAX and I watched a medical emergency happen on the plane. I was so impressed with the level of attentiveness and quick action from the crew that I just want to highlight the level of professionalism and consideration they had for the passenger.

The medical situation was resolved on the flight and everyone left ok 🙏

Good for you @AirCanada!

Yesterday, I informed Premier Ford of my decision to resign from Cabinet and from my seat in the Ontario Legislature, effective June 5.

To Premier Ford, to the people of York-Simcoe, to Ontario’s Francophone community, to the York-Simcoe PC riding association, to my Caucus and Cabinet colleagues, to my constituency and ministerial teams, to the Ontario Public Service and my family – thank you.
