I’ve been in boardrooms for 3 decades and can absolutely promise you it’s not women who are ruining the workplace. Not our vices. Not our voices. Not our views. And not our feminism. @nytimes

Canadian falls are the best. I love the crisp air, the crunchy apples, the colourful leaves, the root vegetables, the starry evening skies and wearing cozy sweaters! ❤️🇨🇦

What are we now - in grade 2? Putting tariffs on Canada to retaliate against an ad is so childish. Is there a corner he can go stand in while he thinks about his behaviour? Signed moms everywhere.

The Conservative Party has lost its way. It needs to stop mimicking the exact same US narratives and stop creating fear and using exaggeration to make a case for being in power. This is Canada. We are smarter and not easily fooled and we have the benefit of seeing what’s happening to the south.

Honestly is there any better feeling than coming home at the end of a day or evening out, taking off your shoes, work or dressy clothes, bra, removing your makeup, all of your jewellery, tying your hair up and putting on comfy sweat pants and a sweatshirt?
I think not.

This is your daily reminder that climate change is real, Tylenol is safe, God doesn’t love Christian Americans more than anyone else and science deals in facts not falsehoods. ✌🏻

True faith isn’t about excusing hate, bigotry, or misogyny. Defending that behaviour just because someone shares your religion isn’t faith it’s hypocrisy. A bad person can hide behind any faith, and a kind person can live without one. Faith doesn’t excuse cruelty, & decency doesn’t depend on belief.

Imagine time travelling to a measles epidemic in the 1800’s and telling people that one day, thru the miracle of science and medicine, there’d be a vaccine to prevent it. And that by the year 2000 it would be declared eradicated!

There are two things making this moment possible.
First, a narcissistic bully who thrives on power, greed, and control.
Second, a chorus of enablers so desperate to stay close to him, and feed off him, that they’ll echo whatever he says, no matter how untrue or dangerous.

I believe there’s been 60 trade-related announcements from the US (including letters, tariffs, orders, etc.) since January.
(Give or take a few 🤷🏻♀️)
As of right now 6 of them are actually in effect.

Hold onto your real history books America. Guard them for the precious words and lessons they are.
You’re seriously going to need them as the truth gets rewritten and the facts conveniently lost.
