Andrew Paris grew up experiencing firsthand how curling is seen as an exclusive sport, due to its deep-rooted history, and socio-economic barriers. Paris is striving to change the face of curling through his coaching and his "Black Rock" initiative.

I’ve been doing Stop the Violence for almost 10 years, every killing over the years has hurt me deeply, but this one has broken me in a way I’ve never thought possible……My little cousin ���Marmar” was ONLY 8 YEARS OLD, full of love & life. Heartbroken beyond words💔💔💔💔😭😭😭😭
1/ On this inaugural #NationalDayforTruthAndReconciliation, I’ll share part of my story: Both my parents attended Institutions of Assimilation and #Genocide. They survived but never ever spoke about it. My brothers Robert, Ronald & Charles attended the same institution as my dad.
@TwitCoast What happens for youth who just turn 12? Do they have essentially a month where they can’t do anything because they aren’t double vaccinated?
It is deeply disappointing and downright offensive to me that @TimHoustonNS appointed a 71 year old White man as the Minister responsible for African Nova Scotian Affairs and the Office of Equity and Anti-Racism Initiatives. This just feels tone deaf. #nspoli#NewCabinet

My Dad rarely spoke about residential school. However, one thing that stuck with me was his account of how the older boys would position themselves closer to the door in the dorms so the younger boys wouldn’t be chosen when the priests came to get them at night. #215children
