What a memorable, thrilling and nerve-wracking roller coaster of a season! Thank you @BlueJays for playing with grit, passion and lots of emotion. Can’t wait to next season! #bluegrit

Amazing victory by #CANNWT! And the CBC montage set to @arkellsmusic “Years in the Making” was pitch perfect…

I went through the public school system in Canada; the fact that I can’t recall a single instance where a teacher, professor or academic ever mentioned the horrific legacy of our residential school system and how it impacted our indigenous community is a source of national shame.

At this point, I’ve stopped wondering if I’ll live to see the Leafs win the Cup and started wondering if I’ll live to see the #Leafs win a playoff series

At 20, he was overhyped.
At 21, he was overrated.

At 22, he’s the best hitter in baseball.

Did you know that after they’ve paid for housing, the average food bank recipient has $7.83 left per day?

This holiday season please consider giving what you can to Sussex's food drive fundraiser in support of @DailyBreadTO.

An excellent thread re federal climate plan and what it means for #Alberta #cdnpoli #climatechange

[Chad Park @ChadParkTNS]

There will be many more takes about how last week’s federal climate plan is bad for Alberta. They are wrong. I’m not a partisan but this is one instance where I feel I need to comment on how misguided the political spin is. This is good policy, including for Alberta. 1/

[Brian Zeiler-Kligman @OntGRGuy]

Across the city, food banks have been hit hard by the pandemic at a time when they're needed more than ever.

That's why @SussexStrategy is holding a fundraiser to support @DailyBreadTO. If you're able to help, please give what you can this holiday season.

Our friend Pamela just told us that “According to Jewish tradition, a person who dies on Rosh Hashanah, which began tonight, is a tzaddik, a person of great righteousness.” We found that very comforting. So strange to be eating these apples and honey with this sadness.

Happy birthday 🎂, @BobRae48.

Glad I held on to this photo (and your personal note) from 1991 while you met with our group of Legislative Pages.

This is my Gr2/3 classroom. I don’t have desks to support different learning styles, collaboration, self-reg., etc. I calculate 11 spots that would allow for physical distancing with the furniture I have? Who has desks anymore? #SafeSeptember @Sflecce #onted #UnsafeSeptember

[Brian Zeiler-Kligman @OntGRGuy]

Maybe when they were the Hebrew National ones. But, yeah, baseball, @BlueJays, hotdogs. Bring it on!

[Harvey Bischof @HarveyBischof]

While Ford & Lecce say they want students back at school five days a week in September, they are showing no willingness to commit to any additional funding to school boards for the resources needed to keep our students and staff safe from COVID-19. #OSSTF #onted #onpoli
