@TruthSeek01011 lol! And that’s without even leaving the damn airport

[Jen McIntyre @JenMcEditor]

@paulcrosstoront It's incredible. The pilot did everything right -- I've just listened to the cockpit/tower recording and she stayed calm and did what she was trained to do. Kudos to that young lady.

A palate-cleanser to start your Monday off right. 🥰🥰��

His parents used to dread haircuts until they met Vernon Jackson, a local barber.

.@CAASCO What in the name of find all the photos with stoplights is going on with your emerg line?? Needed urgent assistance yesterday on a deserted back country road and ended up in a battle with your "Mindbot." This isn't the CAA I signed up for. 😡😡😡

@lethal_heroine Thank you for being so incredibly articulate about the situation surrounding Alice Munro right now. I’ve heard you on CBC frequently of late, and even though I know how devastated you are, your words are helping me come to grips with what’s happened. ❤️💗

[Jen McIntyre @JenMcEditor]

@TableSeas @MayorOliviaChow Thank you. 😢 I saw the family member while I was giving my statement to police. Heartbreaking.

[Jen McIntyre @JenMcEditor]

@TableSeas @MayorOliviaChow Yes. One was just before 12 noon on Sun. 16 June, and the other was around 6 pm on the same day. I witnessed the second one. :*( A lot of family, friends, witnesses, and first responders will be hurting today.

A friend found this little chap at Union Station in Toronto last week. Can we boost the post & get this little toy back to its owner, who is probably missing it terribly?

Update 3/3: So in the last 2 weeks, thanks to @Bell and @Rogers, I've lost 4 days of work (phone calls, tech visits, NO FREAKING #INTERNET), most of my sanity, and all my self-respect. #FML As long as @Bell and @Rogers are the only choices, we're all screwed. @blogTO

[Jen McIntyre @JenMcEditor]

Update, part 2/3: But just today, I discovered @Rogers won't let me out of my contract without a penalty, even though the @Bell rep assured me they'd take care of all that for me. (They didn't and won't.) So now, I have to go back to @Rogers. "Sorry, not sorry." #RogeredAgain

[Jen McIntyre @JenMcEditor]

Update: So here is the reality of #internet & #cell "service" in Canada. After 2 days of the latest @Rogers outage, in desperation I tried to switch to @Bell. Took them 10 days to get me set up. ... #RogeredAgain (1/3)

[Jen McIntyre @JenMcEditor]

@GarryHess @ColinDMello @Rogers Maybe the media outlets are all on @Rogers Internet. In which case, God help us all. #RogeredAgain

[Jen McIntyre @JenMcEditor]

More to the point, has @Rogers even noticed the @Rogers outage? 🙄💡

[Jen McIntyre @JenMcEditor]

Now more than 30h without internet, and @Rogers is still busily “detecting” the current massive #outage. Good sleuthing, boys! Have you tried turning your bot off and turning it on again? How many fingers am I holding up? #RogeredAgain

[Jen McIntyre @JenMcEditor]

Spoiler alert: the site just says “TBD,” as in “To be discussed.” I’d like to discuss the work I’ve missed, and how much I’m looking forward to the @Bell technician arriving here on Friday morning to hook me up to some actual working Internet. @RogeredAgain #outage

[RogersHelps @RogersHelps]

@coreyg57 Hey Michelle! I can understand being upset when there's an issue and wanting to find out the details. The announcement and information on the outage can be found here: https://t.co/7Oyi877P2W ^EY
