🔎 INFORMATION SOUGHT 🔍

We are asking the public for information regarding an assault that took place in Country Hills last week.

📍On Tuesday, June 16, 2026, a man was pushing his 9-week-old son in a stroller along a sidewalk in the 0 to 100 block of Country Village Gate N.E., near Coventry Hills Boulevard.

At some point between 4:30 & 5:00 p.m., a youth riding a scooter along the same sidewalk passed the stroller, reached out & struck the sleeping baby in the torso, then rode away.

[Mr PitBull Stories @MrPitbull07]

In 1997, actor John C. McGinley’s son, Max, was born with Down syndrome. Shortly after, John's talent agent pulled him aside to deliver what was framed as practical advice: Do not talk about this publicly. Keep it quiet. People will stop hiring you.

For some, that might have sounded like reasonable career preservation. Protect the livelihood, avoid the spotlight, and pretend nothing had changed.

John’s response was immediate. He fired the agent.

Then, he did the exact opposite of what he had been told. He brought Max everywhere. Red carpets, talk shows, film sets, and public events. Wherever John went, Max was right beside him. At a time when society still largely preferred to keep individuals with developmental disabilities out of sight, John made a different choice. He made his son visible. Openly, proudly, and entirely without apology.

What began as a father's protective instinct grew into decades of fierce advocacy. John became one of the country's most recognizable voices for Down syndrome awareness. He spoke at global conferences, testified before Congress, and fought hard for employment law reforms that created real opportunities for people with disabilities to work, earn, and live independently.

During this journey, a reporter asked John a question that revealed far more about society's biases than it did about Max. The reporter asked if John ever wished his son were normal.

John didn't hesitate. He replied that Max was normal. The question wasn't. It was a blunt rejection of the idea that a person’s worth is measured by how well they fit into a narrow, conventional box.

Decades have passed since that conversation. Max is now 27 years old. He works, navigates his community, and lives an independent life filled with possibilities that the critics in 1997 never could have imagined for him.

Reflecting on their journey, John often says that Max never limited his life. He expanded it. Through his son, he learned what love, patience, and true commitment require.

The world signaled early on that it would have preferred Max to remain hidden in the shadows. John spent nearly three decades ensuring that the world looked Max right in the eye. Some fathers protect their children by shielding them from the world. Others protect them by refusing to let the world look away.

True inclusion begins when we stop treating differences as deficits. Max didn't need to change to fit into the world.

The world needed to change to make room for Max.

@steeletalk Nice coaching didn’t work. I’m excited to see a different direction coaching wise. I wasn’t in the dressing/ meeting rooms for the other stuff. So I can’t say much about it.

@TheViewBox_Tv This was racing. All forms of racing have lost the basic reason it was so desirable to watch.
Nascar is the worst when it comes to ruining racing

[jotaeme @jm5296437885528]

@TheViewBox_Tv Cabe mencionar que los coches de aquella época eran considerablemente más pequeños, mucho más ligeros y muchísimo más lentos —unos 11 segundos más lentos por vuelta— que los coches actuales.
Las fuerzas G que experimentan los conductores de hoy también son mucho mayores.

[Fredrick Stevenz @RsixCarbon_]

@TheViewBox_Tv Un piloto de F1 actual difícilmente podria conducir un F1 de esa época
Esos si eran verdadero pilotos que MANEJABAN el carro poque los de hoy en dia el carro los maneja a ellos .......

[CapeCodMark @willyrobins]

@TheViewBox_Tv Some would argue, a much better racing to watch. Now it’s boring, compared to the mechanical wonder of the earlier years. I’ve watched nearly every race since 1989. It’s not improved, since the early days. It’s almost a different sport now with all the gadgets, and buttons.

[Bull Runner @TheViewBox_Tv]

Así conducía Ayrton Senna en el G.P. de Mónaco 1990.

Su McLaren MP4/5B tenía una caja manual de 6 velocidades en forma de HA en lugar de las levas detrás del volante de los coches actuales.

Cambiaba de marcha unas 3,600 veces por carrera a más de 250 km/h por calles estrechas con una sola mano.

El auto no contaba con dirección asistida ni suspensión activa. Toda la tracción y corrección en los saltos de Montecarlo dependían puramente de su sensibilidad y fuerza muscular.

Era otra época para la F1.

[Jeromy (Pathfinder) Farkas @JeromyYYC]

It's time to cut through the bullshit about the Cowboys tent. Stampede succeeds because Calgarians welcome millions of people into our city. That goodwill matters. A few operators do not get to treat neighbours like garbage and damage the reputation of an event that belongs to all of us.

By now you've seen the coordinated smear campaign from out-of-town politicians. They think you're stupid and want you to believe that we're somehow cancelling Stampede by asking the big tents to use the same rules in place at Coachella, Lollapooloza and all the other world class festivals.

That's the first piece of bullshit. We're not talking about Stampede at all. We're talking about a few off-site tents that have been treating their neighbors like garbage.

Here's the truth. In the last few years, the tents were given a special exemption way above and beyond what was in place up until about 2019. People living near these tents were told to call 311 and wait. Their windows shook and broke. Their shelves rattled. Music ran on weeknights until 2 or 3 a.m. They dealt with property damage, public disorder, and excessive intoxication outside their homes.

Thousands of Calgarians raised their concerns. And just like when we repealed blanket rezoning, the city chose to listen to the people rather than answer to the money.

The second piece of bullshit is that Calgary's rules suck compared to everywhere else. In fact, the changes are modest. There's no change on weekends. But on weeknights, concerts now need to wrap up by 1230am. Even with this change, it means that Calgary still allows outdoor music later than anywhere else in North America.

The third piece of bullshit is that this was done last minute. This wasn't a last minute change. The big tents knew in February that their exemption was under review. Cowboys was told again in May. Their exemption depended on managing noise, safety, and impacts on nearby residents. They did not meet that standard.

But what isn't bullshit is that as your mayor I'm fighting for you. I want you to know that a permit is not a licence to bully a neighbourhood. It is not a profit guarantee. I was elected to stand up for Calgarians, not to take orders from wealthy donors, lobbyists, or politicians protecting their friends.

I am more than happy to seek compromise and work with operators who respect Calgarians. But I answer to the nurse on an early shift, the parent getting kids ready for school, and the worker who needs sleep.

So no. We are not cancelling Stampede. We are protecting it. Stampede succeeds because Calgarians welcome millions of people into our city. That goodwill matters. A few operators do not get to damage the reputation of an event that belongs to all of us.

If you want to do business in Calgary, respect the people who live next door.
