That’s a wrap! 34 years in News. What an awesome ride! Thanks to everyone ⁦@GlobalBC⁩ & @BC1 & ⁦@CKNW⁩ news for the incredible send-off and gifts!

We’re saving you money at the pump. Starting next Monday, we’re suspending the federal Fuel Excise Tax on gasoline and diesel across Canada. You’ll save up to 10 cents per litre from April 20 until Labour Day.

PM Carney: "Virtue is like a muscle, it grows with exercise. When we are kind, kindness grows. When we seek unity, unity grows. When we are Canadian, Canada grows. And when we are all in for Canada, we will build Canada strong for all."

Too on point not to share, “Aussie reply to Trump rant about NATO not being there for us. Mate. You run a country with 600,000 homeless people sleeping on the street tonight. A country where 40% of adults can't cover a $400 emergency without borrowing money. A country where insulin costs more than a car payment and people are rationing it to survive. A country where medical debt is the number 1 cause of bankruptcy. A country where women are dying in hospital car parks because doctors are too scared of abortion laws to treat a miscarriage. You lock up more of your own citizens than any nation on earth. More than China. More than Russia. More than North Korea. The land of the free has 2 million people in cages, and a quarter of them haven't even been convicted of anything. They're just too poor to make bail. Your life expectancy is going backwards. You're the only developed nation where that's happening. Your infant mortality rate is worse than Cuba's. Your kids do active shooter drills between maths and English while you sell the gunmaker's stock to your mates. Your minimum wage hasn't moved in 15 years. You've got teachers working 2 jobs and veterans sleeping under bridges and you just spent a trillion dollars flattening a country that didn't attack you. And you’ve got a convicted felon, adjudicating raping, paedophile protecting, porn star shagging insurrectionist running the biggest dumpster fire war campaign since the Taliban thanked you very much for losing again. And you're calling Greenland poorly run? Greenland has universal healthcare. Free education. One of the lowest incarceration rates in the world. Nobody goes bankrupt there because they got sick. Nobody dies in a waiting room because their insurance said no. "NATO wasn't there when we needed them." When exactly was that, champ? September 11? Because NATO invoked Article 5 for the first and only time in history FOR YOU. Soldiers from dozens of countries deployed, fought, bled, and died in Afghanistan FOR YOU. Australia wasn't even in NATO and we still showed up. For 20 years. And you pulled out at 2am without telling anyone and left them to deal with the mess. So maybe before you start calling other countries poorly run, have a look at your own backyard, you spray-tanned aluminium siding salesman. The only thing poorly run in this picture is your fucking mouth. Credit (borrowed from) Jim Scroggins - original author 📷 unknown”

Re-entry of Artemis II crew captured by the astronaut in International Space Station

I reposted one of the astronauts “tweets” where he clearly identifies he’s on a helicopter on a ship - and someone took to community notes to point out it wasn’t the Orion spacecraft ?!?!? Read and understand what you’re reading before you rush to your superpower of Indignance!

On the helicopter leaving the ship right now. This planet is impossibly beautiful from every altitude I’ve seen it…surface to 250,000 miles

🌕 My other half… finally revealed. @NASA

That moment when Artemis II got closer to the moon and the earth was 238K miles away.

The highest quality video of the moon was just released… this is so beautiful.

🌖Je ne sais pas si tout le monde se rend bien compte mais on a un équipage autour de la Lune EN CE MOMENT MÊME 🤩, un truc que beaucoup d’entre nous ne pensait peut-être pas voir de leur vivant. Oh et puis juste en passant : ils battent le record d’apollo 8 de distance depuis la Terre en volant loin derrière la Lune !! 😎 Alors oubliez tout ce que vous aviez prévu pour ce soir, les chocolats etc, parce ce sont à présent LES HUMAINS QUI SONT ALLÉS LE PLUS LOIN DANS L’HISTOIRE DE L’HUMANITÉ 🤯, c’est une dinguerie absolue et c’est streamé en live. @NASAArtemis @NASA @astro_reid @AstroVicGlover @Astro_Christina @Astro_Jeremy @esa @ESA_fr #Lune #Moon

Today, Christians across Canada celebrate Easter and the resurrection of Jesus Christ. We are reminded that compassion is stronger than hate, that light follows darkness, and that hope endures – even in the face of despair. From my family to yours, have a blessed Easter.

Darren Woo, the local firefighter who caddied for the first time at Augusta National today and won working for Maria Jose Marin, should have this photo framed for the house! 🔥

The first astronaut in history to speak French while en route to the moon — Canada’s very own @astro_jeremy 🇨🇦

“I don’t know you, but I felt compelled to reach out after watching your incredible leadership on display during the World Series.” Four-time NBA Champion head coach Steve Kerr wrote a letter to Blue Jays manager John Schneider (via @TheAthletic)

Bid on these beauties I designed with @neurovaliant for the @BCHLExpress! 👇

Let me explain what just happened 👇 5 minutes before the President announced a halt to attacks on Iran… someone placed a $1.5 BILLION bet on stocks going up and dumped $192 million in oil. 5 minutes… These trades were 4 to 6 times larger than anything else in the entire market. Whoever did this wasn’t guessing. You don’t risk $1.5 billion on a hunch. There was zero public indication this announcement was coming. No leaks. No press. Nothing. The only people who knew were in the room when the decision was made. Someone in that room picked up a phone. And within minutes they made more money than most Americans will earn in a thousand lifetimes. In a single trade. On a war that cost you $4+ a gallon gas and $16 billion in tax dollars. American citizens funded this war. Politicians are profiting from it. This is not the first time. Every major announcement from this administration has had massive suspicious trades right before it dropped. Tariff reversals. Policy shifts. War decisions. This is the most blatant insider trading operation in the history of American politics. It’s not even close. And it’s happening over and over in broad daylight. You would go to federal prison for trading on a tip from your cousin. These people are front running war decisions with billion dollar bets and nobody will ever ask a single question. Nobody will be investigated. Nobody will be charged. By tomorrow this will be buried under the next satisfying headline. Just like last time. And the time before that. The game is rigged. And they’re not even trying to hide it anymore…

On April 7, we honour Logan Boulet, one of 16 lives lost in the Humboldt crash. After his passing, his organs saved 6 lives and inspired more than 150,000 Canadians to register. That’s the #LoganBouletEffect. Learn more: bit.ly/KCA-GreenShirt…
