What a difference a year makes.

Last year, I scaled up Eidiot Mubarak, a comedy show celebrating Muslims created by my client, Hassan Phills. He originally had 600 people in a church, rented chairs and set them up with friends.

Okay, this is reductionist, but I watched the sam seder jubilee video. We have Republicans who argued:

“Stooping so low as to use ELECTRICITY, that so affects the life of innocent people, as a bargaining chip and threat?”

Rules for the rest of the world, but not for Israel.

Labour in Ontario is disorganized and doesn't understand the power they have in politics. Outside of fighting for issues related to singular union issues, they do not organize political education for union and non-members to the degree they should.
I'm going to be a lot more active here. Posting opinions and updates on news happens contextually because how you consume information matters. Rest assured that everything will be digestible and easy, and we can have open discussions.

Chrystia Freeland essentially ended Justin Trudeau’s time as PM by resigning from cabinet. She was long thought to be the next PM in waiting, but 8% of Liberal voters voted for her.

Nearly all senior Liberal leadership and staffers supported Carney.

During Ramadan this year, the comedian I work with, Hassan Phills, and I partnered up with Muslim Welfare Canada to raise $50,000 to support Torontonians living rough. If we don't care for each other, nobody else will.

30 today.

Blessed to see this day — with a lot of love. 365 days and a lot has changed, but I have a lot of the same good people around me. Lots of down, and some of the biggest ups. Eternally happy to see many of the people around me thriving.

If the Bills close this out, the MVP discussion is over. It has to be Josh Allen.

this is hilarious because he's been raving about how the carbon tax has hiked grocery prices than puts stuff like this out. I cannot understand how any journalists continue to interview this man considering his bias + funding from the Weston foundation.

It always seems like there is little to do in Ottawa. What is your favourite activity in the city?

~personal news~ my time at Global News is ending. It's been 2.5 years going from the National Online team to being on your screens in Toronto and Nationally. I know I did some great and unique journalism, filled with joy and accountability — always for the public.

Finished. 21.1 kilometres. This was gruelling. Five months ago, I tore both ligaments in my right ankle. A month later, I got bronchitis which lasted until late September. Then, as I finally started feeling better and crushing my long runs, I got COVID. The last two weeks ago, I ran a total of 3KM.

A 6-year-old Muslim boy was stabbed 26 times and killed in a targeted hate-related crime near Chicago. Detectives say the child and a woman were targeted due to their Muslim identities and the ongoing Middle Eastern conflict involving Hamas and Israel.

I caught COVID the same weekend I was supposed to see Drake, now having Thanksgiving alone, and I was supposed to cook for the family. To add to it, I am running a half-marathon next week. Exciting.

I had a number of interactions covering Wab Kinew when I occasionally covered the legislature in Manitoba for CBC. One interaction always stood out.
