This part of the @CanWarMuseum always makes me a little emotional. My Oma has told me several stories about her childhood memories of the liberation of the Netherlands in 1945. (1/5)

"Conservatives need to focus on offence, and we need to elect a brave leader who will get their elbows up, power forward and start putting points on the board".

I'm following @JeffBallingall to see what happens next in the Conservative Party. You should too.

We live in downtown Ottawa. Every time we hear someone honking their horn, my husband looks up and asks "are they here?".

[Emma Haynes @EmmaHaynes_]

I could not be prouder of my husband and his team for working on such an important event.

We have a lot to learn. But we also have a lot to celebrate.

I don't think the empty grocery store trend is trying to scare people over starvation. It's just showing that bad policies have bad consequences.

But what I find shocking about the Liberal's strategy is that it's not explaining the problem, it's just straight up denying it.

Please stop quote tweeting your trolls. Especially the hateful ones.

By quote tweeting them with your own reply, you're just amplifying their voice rather than burying it.

Block them and keep going. If you truly believe in what you say, who cares what CatLover349 thinks?

[Emma Haynes @EmmaHaynes_]

All these extreme pro-lockdown people saying "I'm at the making banana bread phase of the pandemic" etc are so out of touch.

A lot of people are falling apart without any support systems. A lockdown is a prison sentence for them and not a cute excuse to try new crafts.

[Emma Haynes @EmmaHaynes_]

I am so proud of my husband and the incredible work he does setting the record straight on Canada's natural resources. He truly believes in his work and that is reflected in his writing.

Give this a read and follow the series! 👇

A great ad from @Safety_Canada.

My high school youth group wisely had an evening where we were taught all the signs of potential human trafficking since living in a border town put us at extra risk.

We all need to be educated and alert for the safety of us & our loved ones.

[Public Safety Canada @Safety_Canada]

Many don’t understand #HumanTrafficking. In some cases, victims know the perpetrator personally. Almost 1/3 of victims in Canada were trafficked by a current or former intimate partner. Learn the signs and how you can help end human trafficking: https://t.co/aQt7E9Bifb

https://t.co/0IqlwoUfTq these are the three Wetsueten ladies who had their hereditary titles taken away from them by men only because they wanted jobs for their people. Brave women in leadership that deserve attention and respect.

[Emma Haynes @EmmaHaynes_]

Thank you @ellisbross for not only teaching Mr. DiCaprio a few things, but myself as well!

This article is a brilliant and classy response to the misinformation surrounding what's happening in BC right now. A must read. 👇

@perry_chel We made salt-dough ornaments this year! Not very glamorous at all, but they were cheap, easy, and fun to make. Depending on what cookie cutters you have, you can also make them into garland.

[Emma Haynes @EmmaHaynes_]

An absolute class act.

Brad Vis refuses to get caught up in the drama and partisan politics of the day and focuses on what he was elected to do: stand up for his constituents.

[CPAC @CPAC_TV]

Speaking with reporters ahead of a meeting of the Conservative caucus in Ottawa, Brad Vis (the MP for Mission–Matsqui–Fraser Canyon) and Ed Fast (the MP for Abbotsford) draw attention to the dire situation in southwest British Columbia, which has been ravaged by floods.

[Ethics in Bricks @EthicsInBricks]

Life's short. Make sure you spend a lot of time debating politics and ethics with anonymous Twitter trolls.

[Erin O'Toole @erinotoole]

It was a privilege to sit down with my friend Don White, a Veteran of the Second World War who was one of many thousands of Canadian heroes that helped liberate the Netherlands from Nazi occupation.

[Emma Haynes @EmmaHaynes_]

Sometimes I worry that I might make a bad move early on in my career and hurt potential job options.

Then I remember that a man who was arrested for scaling the CN tower is our minister of environment, and I feel a lot better.

[Emma Haynes @EmmaHaynes_]

These people, these stories, they will not be with us for much longer. As their voices fade, lets fight to keep their stories alive. I am here in Canada today thanks to the bravery of Canadian soldiers. I will never forget, and I will always be grateful. (5/5) #LestWeForget

[Emma Haynes @EmmaHaynes_]

Sure enough one day, my Oma remembers watching from the kitchen window Canadian paratroopers land in her parents fields. She says she’d never seen adults acting like such children in the way they were dancing and laughing with joy. (4/5)
