Some personal news.
Lost my brother this week.
The guy who looked after me when I was a kid. The one who coached my baseball teams. The one who loved his hometown, Farnham, with everything he had. The one who taught me how to play hockey. The one who inspired me to become a DJ. The one who got me my first board seat at the Farnham youth center. The one who bought me my first car. The one who helped me start a business when I was young… that guy.
He’s gone.
Jean—“Charlie” at home—passed away wednesday at 61. A father of three, a grandfather of two, taken far too quickly by an aggressive cancer that gave us only weeks. I broke down when I found out in early March. I was at the Toronto airport, waiting for a flight. I’ll never forget that moment. I knew time wasn’t on our side.
We asked him what he wanted to do. He wanted to see the Blue Jays play Los Angeles Dodgers and Shohei Ohtani in Toronto.
My twin brother Patrick pulled off something incredible—planned a trip in days. Early April. The Fairmont Royal York. Even some curling, dressed as bananas with the “Peel,” before the game. The Jays lost 14–2. Didn’t matter. We were together. And deep down, we all knew it would be the last time.
Tonight, I’m thinking about my father, who just lost his first son. No parent should have to live that.
I’m thinking about his daughters—Roxanne, Laurie, Rosalie—his granddaughters Élise and Alice, and Alex, the father.
An entrepreneur for over four decades. Vice-president of the Chamber of Commerce. President of the Farnham golf club. He loved Farnham—and Farnham loved him back.
This is a brutal loss for our family. But that’s life.
F*ck cancer. Rest easy, my big brother. Go join Mom—she’s been watching over us for nearly 17 years.
Give her a hug for all of us. Salut, Charlie.

@libsoftiktok @KatyinIndy @FBI Class-less. Very bad taste and I hope he gets laughed off the podium.

Meet Mark Davis. He’s running for Congress in Florida. He proudly posed with an “8647” hat and license plate which signifies kiIIing Trump. He says it’s not just merch, it’s a “mission.”
Extremely alarming 🚩🚩🚩
What does he mean when he says 8647 is a “mission”?

My 12-year-old granddaughter is nonverbal… today she handed me this drawing and said, “Grandma, I drew you.” 💔❤️
I didn’t know whether to laugh or cry… I mean, do I really look like this? 😂
But honestly, I’m so proud of her talent and the love behind it. That’s what matters most.
She’s going to read your comments with me… so tell me—how did she do? 🥹

@MAGA__Patriot @twk_5 I’ll happily do it if you wear a badge for being liberal :0).

@DavidJHarrisJr Zack-someday we can have a talk. But before we talk-let’s find opposites. Black/white, educated/uneducated. Because nature is what it is, a woman “may” have a penis, or a man “may” have breasts. In this case, family & medical consultation will be best. NOT outside influence.
