Waterloo MPP Catherine Fife may ponder seeking leadership of the provincial NDP. Says she’ll sit with her family and supporters to talk about “what the future looks like.”

@OttawaCitizen This is great work by Postmedia and its readers. Fascinating project. Thanks for finding and linking to my story about Robert’s cousin Bill, wounded in France. I have visited the Buron battlefield twice. Respect for the McCormick family who gave so much for this country.

@fitsumareguy @ONAwards @JaneatLFPress @GrantRants I miss working with Fitsum and we never even met. Strange year. He really sharpened these stories.

@CharlotteProng @WeidnerRecord @BoothRecord @ROWPublicHealth Cases in Record chart are presented as a 3-day moving average to better show trends. It says so in the chart note. I may highlight that point to make it more obvious.

Waterloo council told it must hike city taxes/fees by twice the inflation rate for this term and for years to follow, to fix its crumbling roads, buildings, ponds. https://t.co/EZT8cUiNEe

I'm gripped by the never-ending story around Helmut Oberlander and Nazi war crimes. https://t.co/Aedy9RWuup

Divided in life, united by death. German-Canadian Remembrance Day reveals a human truth. https://t.co/w2F6njWewC

Fewer than 300 daily passengers ride GO trains in Kitchener. That's a failure after eight years of service. Will a better service draw more than a marginal ridership? https://t.co/ls9RpqOpXP

'Mistake after mistake after mistake.' Grieving parents sue Waterloo Regional Police and children's aid for negligence after their daughter Taryn, 16, is killed during a Cambridge police chase. https://t.co/zxOkja7tWZ

Disabled Kitchener man battles UW for 6 years after being denied admission. Court provides him partial victory after human rights tribunal rejected his claim. Many twists and turns. https://t.co/yqaHKX3ogZ

Our children test well below average across reading, writing and math. Is that good enough in a community aiming to be an innovation, education champion? https://t.co/8DmYkpUhXZ

Elections, prime ministers come and go. Canada's WW2 prosecution of Waterloo's Helmut Oberlander soldiers on for 24 years, enough time to defeat the Nazis four times over. https://t.co/f5thbjPu8O

I'm intrigued by a 'diet' that may trim driving lanes from Waterloo roads. Also that planners are walking back growth and travel targets deployed a decade ago to sell the public on LRT and green-related shifts. https://t.co/fxQUSTIdiE

[Jeff Outhit @OuthitRecord]

Unreliable trains are delaying the better LRT service (1 train every 8 minutes) that was promised to passengers, taxpayers. https://t.co/Oj7lU7OSKl
