There's been ups, there's been downs, but at the end of the day that's a perfect note to end a season on. Best season since 2021. Winning silverware is a habit that we've got out of. I hope this heralds a run of success. But either way I'll enjoy today.

Please WATCH, folks. Then act.
Gaza health care has collapsed. This Sunday, 60 Minutes tells the story of the desperate fight to save children through the charity of nations and the mercy of volunteers.

Dear American citizens, whatever you wish more German citizens would have done in 1933, do that now.

WATCH: The gloves are off! It’s been an under-reported scandal for quite a while that Pierre Poilievre refuses to apply for security clearance. It was a scandal EVEN BEFORE the most recent efforts to undermine Canada’s democracy, sovereignty and economy from Trump, Musk and the GOP.

Share this.
Why Won’t Pierre Poilievre Get His Security Clearance?

I was recently floored by a line of dialogue in a children’s book—“We don’t ignore bigotry, Jack. That’s how cowardly bigots turn into brave bigots”—if you were wondering why children’s books are important, and why there has been so much concerted effort to ban them.

The Canadian embassy in DC has just removed its friendly banners… just in time for the presidential motorcade to pass. Coincidence? See below, before and after

It's been obvious since January 6 that he was an enemy of the USA, the UK & the whole of the free world. Everybody still in his camp understands this as completely as everybody against it. They just prioritise personal interest over the national & international. And they know it. They all know it.

Do you fly in airplanes? Drive on highways? File taxes? Have kids or elderly parents? Go to the doctor? Prefer not to be poisoned by toxic chemicals? Then you rely on the government services that Musk is hobbling. It is tragic that many Americans won’t realize this until those services are killed.

The Pitt is my fav new tv show in many years. This week’s episode was excellent but completely wrecked me.

I don't know how to explain to people that it's important to read books, important to keep the mind sharp and active through constant learning, important to spend time with actual humans.

It’s hard to communicate the crisis that’s unfolding and the dangers ahead because a lot of superficial things won’t change. The Netflix will still turn on. Your sports teams will play. You’ll see movies. But the things that make liberal democratic life uniquely stable, secure, & vibrant will decay.

It’s good to stay in shape and eat healthy but you also need to be reading. Get a library card. Find a book that appeals to you. Spend a few minutes reading before bed. Your brain will thank you, and you’ll be pleasantly shocked at the joy that books bring.

After American airspace was closed on 9/11, over 230 flights with 30,000 passengers and crew were diverted to Canadian airports. Transport Canada received thousands of calls from members of the public offering to help the stranded passengers.

Thinking about that today, for no particular reason.
