An all male panel is called a Manel, but what is an all male taskforce called? Men talking to men will result in meeting the needs of men. I mean, thank goodness Jude is there, but we need more gender diversity in these discussions. #NoMoreManels #WhereAreTheWomen

There was a stabbing at the University of Waterloo today. A man entered a classroom, asked what the class was about, and stabbed three people, who are now in hospital. The attacker has been taken into custody. The class was PHIL 202: Gender Issues.

So, Halifax is on fire, Alberta is on fire, and BC is lighting up like a chimney already too. The warm summer temps haven't even hit yet.

This is the BC wildfire dashboard.

Please people, be mindful this year. Do your part to be fire safe.
