Today is Truth and Reconciliation Day in Canada.
It's a new holiday that no one seems to know quite how to mark.

We finally found it! A rare wheelchair-accessible home with ramps, a yard, and an accessible bathroom—move-in ready for me & my service dog. We just need a bit more to cover the down payment & moving costs. This is a once-in-a-lifetime chance. 💙

Thank you Charlie. “For social democracy to be meaningful, it must be both social and democratic.” That’s the feeling I got by interacting with and meeting real people in my first effort as a volunteer. The conversations at the door and on the street are much more meaningful than posts.

Security-Threat-Pierre is promising the world right now because he's lagging in the polls, but his actions over the past 20 years have been consistent. He hasn't changed. He won't change. He's just not telling us how he's going to screw us, but he will. He thinks we're stupid. He said so. #CdnPoli

Over 6000 Canadians came out to celebrate Canada today at the Elbows Up Event! So proud of everyone who participated and thanks so much to all who attended and cheered with all your hearts for our great county.
