๐๐๐๐โฝ๏ธ Chasing the Cup: Canada-Bosnia-Herzegovina - The result was better than I could have hoped for, all things considered.
Today's Canada ๐จ๐ฆ vs. Bosnia-Herzegovina ๐ง๐ฆ match was a hard-fought and emotional game that ended in a 1โ1 draw.
Going into the match, I thought Bosnia-Herzegovina had the better chance of winning. But from the opening whistle to the final minutes, I was pleasantly surprised by how well Canada played, especially offensively.
Bosnia-Herzegovina started the stronger side and took the lead in the 21st minute when Jovo Lukiฤ scored from a corner kick. They then focused on defending and slowing the pace of the game. Their goalkeeper, Nikola Vasilj, made several important saves and was one of Bosnia-Herzegovina's standout players.
In the second half, Canada turned up the pressure and kept pushing forward. Their persistence paid off in the 78th minute when Cyle Larin came off the bench and scored the equalizer, changing the momentum of the match. Both teams had chances after that, but neither could find the winning goal.
Overall, it was a balanced game. Bosnia and Herzegovina was more efficient in the early stages and defended well, while Canada showed greater energy and control as the game progressed. A draw was a fair result, and Canada earned its first World Cup point in the process.
Looking ahead, Canada's ๐จ๐ฆ next two matches are against Qatar ๐ถ๐ฆ on June 18 and Switzerland ๐จ๐ญ on June 24. They will be tough tests, but after this performance, Canada has every reason to believe it can compete with both teams.
The match against Qatar is especially important. A win would put Canada in a strong position to move on to the knockout stage. Switzerland is considered one of the stronger teams in the group, so even earning a draw could be a big result.
If Canada hopes to make a deep run and possibly reach the semifinals, it first needs to get out of Group B. The clearest path is to beat Qatar and avoid losing to Switzerland. Winning by a good margin could also help, as goal difference may become important.
Nothing is guaranteed, but today's performance showed that this Canadian team has the discipline, resilience, and belief to surprise a lot of people in this tournament, myself included!

๐๏ธ๐ฟ Plot Twist: Itโs Only Thursday - White Bird (2024)!
I just watched White Bird and was left feeling numb.
Coming just days after the 82nd anniversary of D-Day on June 6, 1944 - when Allied forces landed on the beaches of Normandy, France ๐ซ๐ท in a historic operation that launched a year-long campaign to liberate Western Europe from Nazi occupation - the film serves as a powerful reminder of the millions who suffered under Nazi persecution. Among them were Jewish communities, people with disabilities, and countless others who were targeted, dehumanized, and killed because of hatred and prejudice.
At its heart is the story of a French-Jewish grandmother, played by Helen Mirren, who shares with her grandson her experiences growing up in Nazi-occupied France, where a brave classmate and his family risked everything to hide her from persecution. Alongside Mirren, the film features strong performances from Ariella Glaser, Bryce Gheisar, and Gillian Anderson.
The story highlights both the cruelty that people can inflict on one another and the extraordinary courage of those who choose kindness, compassion, and humanity in the darkest of times.
Although the story is set in the past, its themes remain relevant today, as discrimination, intolerance, and injustice continue to affect people around the world.
White Bird is a moving reminder of why remembering history matters - not only to honour the victims and survivors of the past, but also to encourage empathy, understanding, and the courage to stand up for others in our own time.
As Martin Luther King Jr. famously said: โDarkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that.โ
โAs long as we shine our light, we win.โ - White Bird โจ๐๏ธ
๐ฅ๐๏ธ An emotional scene from White Bird in which Sara - the young girl portrayed later in life by Helen Mirrenโs character - asks her father a question no child should ever have to ask: โWhy do people hate us so much?โ

๐๐๐๐โฝ๏ธ Chasing the Cup: To have been present on this boulevard once againโฆ
Bosnia-Herzegovinaโs ๐ง๐ฆ surprise triumph over four-times world champions Italy ๐ฎ๐น, to clinch a spot in the 2026 World Cup ignited celebrations across the capital Sarajevoโs streets, delivering a rare burst of joy amid ongoing political turmoil - a topic I've covered in the past. Although qualifying for the World Cup marks a significant achievement, the celebratory mood across Bosnia-Herzegovina last night also reveals how deeply people long for progress beyond the everyday political struggles that have weighed on the country for years. Amid an unseasonably cold spring, rising living costs, and ongoing political gridlock, many welcomed the chance to pause and celebrate something positive.
Last night, Bosnians flooded the streets and made their way to the Vjeฤna vatra ("Eternal Flame") in the heart of the capital to celebrate. The Eternal Flame is a memorial dedicated to the military and civilian victims of World War II in Sarajevo. Sarajevo's architecture has Ottoman, Austro-Hungarian, Yugoslav, and modern Bosnian influences, reflecting the city's complex identity. The memorial stands in the downtown area at the junction where these influences converge - specifically at the meeting point of Mula Mustafa Baลกeskija, Marลกala Tita (Marshal Tito), and Ferhadija streets.
Marshal Tito Street (often called โUlica Marลกala Titaโ) is one of the most common and historically significant street names across the former Yugoslavia, of which Bosnia-Herzegovina was a founding republic. The name refers to Josip Broz Tito (1892-1980), the longtime leader of Yugoslavia from World War II until his death in 1980. He was a central figure in leading the resistance against the German occupation during World War II. Tito represented the idea of a unified Yugoslav state made up of multiple ethnic groups. He is credited with promoting peaceful coexistence both within Yugoslavia and across the world. Yugoslavia disintegrated in the 1990s, following four bloody wars.
Today, โMarshal Tito Streetโ carries different meanings depending on the country in region. In places like Bosnia-Herzegovina ๐ง๐ฆ and North Macedonia ๐ฒ๐ฐ, the name often remains and can symbolize nostalgia or respect for stability during Titoโs era. In Croatia ๐ญ๐ท and Serbia ๐ท๐ธ, some streets have been renamed due to changing political views.
Simply put, โMarshal Tito Streetโ isnโt just a location. It reflects the legacy of a leader who shaped an entire region, and ongoing debates about history, identity, and politics in the Balkans.
To have been present on this boulevard last night - as shown on this video - once again having last walked it in 2018, and singing along the lyrics of "U.S.A." as heard in the video.
โU.S.A.โ is a satirical song by the Bosnian band Dubioza Kolektiv. Itโs known for its fast-paced, catchy style, and sharp political commentary.

๐๐๐๐โฝ๏ธ Chasing the Cup: The World Cup enters the Super Bowl age.
For the first time ever, the FIFA World Cup will feature a halftime show at the final - bringing soccer and music together on the sportโs biggest stage.
The announced headliners include Colombian ๐จ๐ด singer Shakira, American ๐บ๐ธ and global pop icon Madonna, and South Korean ๐ฐ๐ท boy band BTS. The show is also being curated by British musician Chris Martin ๐ฌ๐ง, best known as the lead singer of Coldplay.
Shakiraโs inclusion feels especially fitting, given how closely she has become associated with World Cup music over the years through songs like โWaka Waka,โ and the newly released 2026 anthem โDai Dai,โ created alongside Nigerian ๐ณ๐ฌ superstar Burna Boy - now one of the worldโs biggest African music artists. โDai daiโ is being presented as an energetic chant along the lines of โcome on!โ or โletโs go!โ - trying to fit the spirit of soccer anthem.
The halftime show marks a major shift inspired by events like the Super Bowl, highlighting how the World Cup has grown into a global entertainment event watched by billions worldwide.
For fans, it means an even bigger celebration of culture, music, and soccer all in one night.
The 2026 FIFA World Cup final will be played on Sunday, July 19, 2026 at MetLife Stadium (officially branded by FIFA as โNew York New Jersey Stadiumโ) in East Rutherford, New Jersey, just outside New York City.
The tournament itself runs from June 11 to July 19, 2026, and will be jointly hosted by United States, Canada, and Mexico ๐บ๐ธ๐จ๐ฆ๐ฒ๐ฝ. It will be the first World Cup with 48 teams and 104 matches.

๐๐๐๐กThe World on Wednesdays: Which way, Peru? https://t.co/qcaE2PDEw0 via @YouTube
Peruโs ๐ต๐ช 2026 presidential election ๐ท, held on June 7, 2026, has become one of the closest and most polarized races in recent history. As vote counting continues, the country is once again facing a familiar question: which direction will Peru take after three and a half decades of political instability, mistrust, and economic uncertainty?
At the centre of the race are two very different candidates, each offering a competing vision for the country:
๐ฅ Keiko Fujimori - a right-leaning, law-and-order conservative
โฌ๏ธRoberto Sรกnchez - a left-leaning, reformist populist
Keiko Fujimori is one of the most well-known - and divisive - figures in Peruvian politics. Her political identity is closely linked to her father, former president Alberto Fujimori. His 1990s government is remembered for stabilizing the economy and taking a hard line against two leftist guerrilla insurgencies, but also for serious human rights abuses, corruption allegations, and controversial policies that affected Indigenous, rural, and low-income communities, including forced sterilizations.
Fujimori has long defended parts of this legacy and built her platform around security, order, and economic stability.
On the other side is Roberto Sรกnchez, a left-wing congressman and former minister who has gained prominence more recently. He has been campaigning on expanding the role of the state in the economy, strengthening anti-corruption measures, widening social programmes, and pushing for political change after years of instability.
He is also linked to the broader left-wing movement that gained momentum after the short presidency of Pedro Castillo (2021โ2022). His support base is largely made up of voters who want a clear break from traditional political elites.
Early results show just how tight the race remains, with neither candidate securing a decisive lead as counting continues and legal challenges are expected.
The divide in this election is not only ideological - it is also social and geographic. Voters in urban coastal areas - including in capital Lima - tend to lean right, while rural and highland regions are more likely to support the left. These patterns reflect long-standing inequality in Peruvian society.
Beyond the candidates, this election is defined by fragility. Peru has endured years of political upheaval, including frequent presidential removals and resignations, repeated corruption investigations, and deep public distrust in institutions.
In this environment, many voters are not choosing a candidate they fully support, but rather the one they see as the less risky option.
"Which way, Peru?โ is therefore more than a question about two individuals. It reflects a broader uncertainty about whether the country can stabilize after years of crisis - or whether it will continue shifting between opposing political extremes.
For now, the only certainty is uncertainty, and that may be the defining feature of Peruโs 2026 election.

๐บ๐ธ๐ณ๏ธ They do โem things a little differently in LAโฆ https://t.co/4WsbnSDwUF via @YouTube
Voters in Los Angeles ๐บ๐ธ cast their ballots eight days ago, deciding on whether incumbent Mayor Karen Bass - a progressive Democrat - should remain in office. Under the cityโs election rules, a candidate who receives more than 50% of the vote wins outright. If no one reaches that threshold, the top candidates move on to a runoff election in November.
The race has drawn national attention as the gap between the leading candidates has shifted while more ballots continue to be counted.
It has also made headlines because the counting process is taking longer than many people are used to. Californiaโs election system prioritizes making sure every eligible vote is counted, rather than producing a final result on election night.
Election officials and multiple news organizations say the slow count is due to Californiaโs ballot-processing rules, not evidence of fraud. There is no evidence - as implied by President Donald Trump - that the delay itself indicates wrongdoing.

Good try, but he's running for the wrong party. Campaigning on people's anxieties by turning immigrants and other vulnerable groups into scapegoats for the complex challenges facing our society is not a Liberal approach. Ontario needs thoughtful policies on immigration and justice reform that address real issues without resorting to fear or division.
The next Ontario Liberal Party leader will be officially announced on November 21, 2026. Members will cast their ranked-ballot votes online between November 9 and November 20 to select a permanent replacement for former leader Bonnie Crombie, with MPP John Fraser currently serving as interim leader.
