Remember this? The most amazing thing about this remarkable 2002 car commercial is that it didn’t seem to realize at the time, or perhaps didn’t care, how effectively it made the point that cars and car infrastructure are a HUGE waste of space in cities. Award-winning 2002 ad for Saturn car company.

Federal politicians are not celebrities.
They’re 343 regional board members that we shareholders interview in a campaign and give a job that we pay for to run a company we own called “Canada”.
Never forget that.
They work for us and are OUR employees.
They answer to US.

I will never forget having to edit Jamal’s final, posthumous piece for the Washington Post, after he was murdered.
He was calling for free expression in the Arab world. You can read it here :

📌NOTE: There's no newsroom guidance I'm aware of that says journalists have to just sit there and take it when an ill-bred slob, and convicted felon calls them "piggy" and shrugs off the brutal killing of one of their colleagues by simply saying, "things happen."

There are no press releases during the shutdown, making it difficult to find this kind of news.
But the AK Air/Army National Guards, and the USCG, are conducting SAR operations. The flooding is in remote areas, and affecting primarily small villages, it appears.

Who do Canadians regard as an “enemy”? This comes from a new Angus Reid report on India, but get a look at the redder end of that list

He knows it. They know it. They've always known it. Amongst themselves, they joke about it. They tell stories about it. They swap advice on how to deal with it.
But most importantly, to everyone else, they lie about it.
