@SeanFitz_Gerald Oh Fitzy. Sorry to hear this - you're the reason why many of us subscribed from Day 1. Someone better hire this amazing human.

@boyreporter @RunTOBeer Happy Birthday and so chuffed to see you tackle the marathon beast! So worth the work even if weekends take the life out of you!

@SeanFitz_Gerald @theeyeopener @calphonso @RenataDAliesio @shanedingman @smithkabul @LianeMcLarty A pitcher of Rickard's Red, a few quarters in the jukebox and you're creating journalistic gold!

@laurendorphin Glad they help. This year is my first in person ATB I'll miss in a very long time (had run 12 straight up to 2019). Good luck and enjoy!!

VIDEO: Health Canada announces it will develop a voluntary standard for BBQ brush makers. Last year, 9 Canadians ingested tiny wire bristles that fell off the brushes, causing serious health problems.

@danieltencer @brodiefenlon It was no chance, a solid bet, I'd say!

[yumke @yumke]

@artipatel @globalnews @CBCNews Best news. So excited to have you on board. Welcome!

[HuffPost Canada @HuffPostCanada]

The time has come to say goodbye.

Thank you to all our readers over the years. We’ll miss being part of your day.

Change is constant in media. Some of it is invigorating, and other times, heart-breaking.

The closure of @HuffPostCanada @HuffPostQuebec hurts on so many levels. I’m so proud of its people and its legacy. It was a privilege to have been part of it.

[yumke @yumke]

@gmoysey @HuffPostCanada @ariannahuff What an incredible opportunity it was. Always thanks to you and that dream team that pushed us to dream big.

[yumke @yumke]

@bradcressman Very sad. It really doesn't feel like 10 years ago.

These folks -> https://t.co/B7XD9fCNYe

[Rebecca Zamon @RebZam]

And then, THE PEOPLE. The alums, you know I love you. But the people right now, who have kept on pursuing and writing and investigating and publishing stories that bring people across this country information and joy throughout this pandemic, and well before it:

[yumke @yumke]

Today, as a former HuffPoster, I am beyond sad.
We see our beloved site @HuffPostCanada go dark.
But we are sad most of all for our talented colleagues.
For those of you in the industry, they are fellow journalists.
For us, it’s family.

[yumke @yumke]

If you made it this far -- hire these fine folks. They are such a talent and are the future of our industry.

[yumke @yumke]

@boyreporter @HuffPostCanada @gabigailgilliam @MikeElliotBarry I'm so sorry Ron.

[Rebecca Zamon @RebZam]

The LIFE team: @MaijaKappler @NatStechyson @WriterValHowes @gollydrat @nicholasmizera @mmmbutters. You seek out the stories no one else is telling in this space and you bring them to life (heh). You champion the voices that aren't heard nearly enough. HIRE THESE PEOPLE.
