@elonmusk Coming from the guy that’s paying people off to vote for Trump? I’m a fan of yours and don’t even disagree with legacy media issues but it’s interesting

[Travis Gerrits @TravisGerrits]

@Martyupnorth_2 Agreed

Hope Kade had an awesome birthday!!!

[Jason Foster @NLWildlife]

My son Kade had his 11th birthday party last night. None of his invited friends came. That hurt. I’m asking my Twitter friends to show him some love today. If you have a minute, please send him a birthday wish. @Marner93 @91Tavares @MapleLeafs #LeafsForever

Olympic diver @francoisidulac struggled with an eating disorder for years.

In support of @Bell_LetsTalk Day and ending the stigma around mental health, he's sharing how talking has helped him get healthy ahead of Tokyo 2020.👇

[Braydon Holmyard @BraydonHolmyard]

Over the years, @TravisGerrits has learned that his mental illness does not define him. He is a happy person. He loves to have fun, is obsessed with skiing and has surrounded himself with great people. From our conversation late last summer, this line stands out:

Our extent of being part of the “food chain” as human beings is eating everything and anything we see and freaking out anytime one of the 7.6 billion people on this earth get eaten by any other critter. And even then it was most likely out of self-defence.

[Travis Gerrits @TravisGerrits]

Strength isn’t always discovered in a gym.

Strength is found through overcoming adversity and obstacles along your own individual path.

With a vision in mind, some perseverance and a supportive network of people around you, I’ve come to learn that almost anything is possible.

[Ontario Shores Fdn @OntShoresFdn]

An amazing day at our #MentalHealth Luncheon which helped raise over $80,000 for patient needs @OntarioShores. A huge #thankyou to everyone who came out, our sponsors, host speakers @joeswisstilley @KarimMamdani, & the truly inspirational @TravisGerrits...together #WeGotThis
