@joshokane @richardwarnica So sorry to hear this. She was a really kind and friendly person, aside from being talented.

“He said: ‘Lake Rouge is gone,’” Dixon said.

Lake Rouge was a calm lake nearby with trout, sandy banks and a surface area of about 3 sq km. By “gone”, they weren’t sure what the man was getting at. ⁦@seleross⁩ https://t.co/JenbovM45N

@siomoCTV Jfc. So glad you got proper treatment finally

[Selena Ross @seleross]

If you're buying flowers for someone tomorrow, make them tulips. They're the only flower mass-grown in the USA/Canada in winter and are more climate-friendly than the rest. (Did a tulip write this, you may ask?? Nope it was me) https://t.co/WaRFDPY8Ca

@richardwarnica They just v politely turn them back on every time they try to talk without them on..? Interesting format

[Selena Ross @seleross]

@PamJSword Haha, I don't know if I consider those my finest work but still 😭

[Selena Ross @seleross]

Also! For some reason NYC has been announcing its porous pavement projects a few miles at a time, but what it hasn't explained is that it's actually turning 40+ miles of South Brooklyn parking lanes to "sponge" - the biggest test/use of this technology in the U.S.

[Hell Gate *subscribe today!* @HellGateNY]

The country's most ambitious effort to deploy "sponge streets" as a flood mitigation tool is happening right here in New York City.

Delved into real-life futurism with this piece about predicting wildfire - the recent bad seasons spurred some amazing science. Foretelling lightning strikes days ahead of time, pinpointing tiny breaks in grassland across the entire USA, other wild stuff. https://t.co/GnDZNGlrb0

This is incredible 💀

[Richard Warnica @richardwarnica]

Justin Ling got the inside story of the Liberal fight over the future of Justin Trudeau. How? He overheard it in Via Rail lounge at Union Station. https://t.co/UCq4N3dUja

This is truly a moment for campus media, who know their own campus better than everyone else.

I’m listening to WKCR, the Columbia student radio station right now, and it’s another level of up-to-the-minute: https://t.co/9441Q2bjoG

Extremely sad about this news out of Halifax about the first paper I ever worked at, which was full of great people and IMO needed on the east coast.

[Dean Beeby @DeanBeeby]

Is Halifax's venerable Chronicle-Herald newspaper doomed? See story on filing for receivership here, which could affect other smaller newsrooms as well. By @Tim_Bousquet https://t.co/QtI3UysqCD #cdnmedia #cdnpoli #nspoli

@thewalrus @cstarnino Amazing news!!

[Selena Ross @seleross]

@nicki_doyle @FNoMTL We actually used to stop by there! And $5 thalis at Pushap. Namur is so incredible

[Selena Ross @seleross]

Put Adrienne Arsenault in charge of the CBC

[Matt @Constantinoplis]

Adrienne Arsenault almost made CBC CEO Catherine Tait swallow her tongue with her brilliant question about Christmas bonuses.

[Selena Ross @seleross]

@tobinng @madihaslam This is the best news!! For Maisonneuve too 🎉

[Selena Ross @seleross]

@ymmbruce Good idea!

[Selena Ross @seleross]

Anyone have any good links or anecdotes about what regular Canadians can do/are doing in response to the Meta online news ban? I know about the ad boycott but am wondering about any other actions people have taken, no matter how small-scale.

[Selena Ross @seleross]

@han_kyoul this is smart!
