@linwood_barclay One of my favourite genres of writing is the slice-of-life conversation between people in the opening of an episode right before they find a body.

Binge-watching old Law&Order. Every episode: Random couple find body. Lenny makes sardonic crack. More to victim than meets eye. Suspect found. Woops wrong guy. Arrest made. Defense tries to suppress vital evidence. Schiff: Cut a deal. McCoy finds a way. Thunk thunk.

BREAKING: Nova Scotia has announced parking is now FREE at all hospitals. There is no reason that Ontario can't do the same. Nurses and doctors shouldn’t have to pay to go to work. I’m fighting to make hospital parking free across Ontario. #onpoli

“It’s easy to be negative when you’ve never fixed anything.” “It’s easy to be negative when you’ve never built anything.” It’s easy to be negative when you’re a career politician who has never accomplished anything. #NeverPoliviere #NeverVoteConservative #CarneyForCanada

Dolly Parton didn't spend her dollars on space travel or a trip to the titanic because she was writing checks to put 150 million books in the hands of children. pic.twitter.com/OgOuYVxoVS

@glennsumi This was my response:

I’m not going to reply, but if I were what would be a good response?

@SturdyHugh I'm so sorry, Hugh. Sometimes giving a person the best care and the most love is recognizing when we have to share the load. All we can ever do is our best. Your mom, I'm sure, is proud of you, appreciates you, and loves you.

Today was a really difficult day. After 5 years of being a full time caregiver for my mom, she was admitted to a LTC home. I am utterly heartbroken, deeply sad. I know it was necessary because the increased level of care she now needs. But it’s gut wrenching to go through.

Hey Pierre, On behalf of 36 year old women everywhere — it’s your time that’s running out. Not ours.

Pierre Poilievre is in PEI today. Did you know he doesn’t just want to cut the CBC—he wants to wipe it out. Islanders know what that means: no Compass, no Island Morning, no Mainstreet. Pierre Poilievre isn’t here to build Canada up—he’s here to tear it down.

$100k is not that salary it was under former Premier Mike Harris, who enacted the Sunshine List as a means to denigrate the public service he also gutted. I'm more focused on the 18 private billionaires and 195 centimillionaires in Toronto who should be taxed their fair share.

Please: Anyone but Doug Ford. Ford is uniquely unqualified and unsuited to be a leader for this moment. His years in office have been defined by shortages — a lack of homes, doctors, teachers, jobs, skilled workers, subways, buses & bike lanes. #Opinion trib.al/L44BEqS

Doug Ford is a Trump supporter. Pierre Poilievre is a Trump supporter. Voters in Ontario can end both of their political careers.

When the Ford government announced the $200 cheques -- the windfall from the capital gains changes was supposed to pay for it. Now it appears the $3 billion cost for the cheques -- will come from the deficit and higher revenues. (You're paying for your own cheque) #onpoli

Coming soon…

@SturdyHugh @CBCBecauseNews @TVGavin Thank you, Hugh.

@JanCaruana @CBCBecauseNews @TVGavin Darn! Honestly you do have a beautiful voice. And you are brilliantly funny. I really enjoyed Saturdays 10th Anniversary show. One day I hope to be able to attend a live taping.

@CBCBecauseNews @JanCaruana you have a beautiful voice!! I think you and @TVGavin need to do a duet! 😊👏

@migrivas @SturdyHugh i'm there too, but haven't posted anything. much more active on I G ♥️

@SturdyHugh @JanCaruana I am! Haven't posted much but I am yes

@JanCaruana @migrivas wondering if you happen to be on that other app (bluish colour) Would love to follow you there if you are.

@brandonhackett I mean....

Ten years later, none of these things have been completed.

Doug Ford has increased Ontario’s debt by 50% (to $450 billion) in only 6 years. And we seemingly have nothing to show for it. Education is worse. Healthcare is worse. Transit projects can’t get completed When conservatives tell you they are fiscally responsible, they’re lying.

@SturdyHugh @CBCBecauseNews @TVGavin @migrivas @maggiecassella ❤️❤️❤️

Tonic of laughter listening to @CBCBecauseNews with the always brilliant @TVGavin and the hilarious @JanCaruana @migrivas and @maggiecassella 👏👏👏 laughs much needed.
