@AmazingZoltan The NDP is such an embarrassment.

HAPPENING NOW: There's surprising amount of disagreement and intellectual diversity at the 2026 NDP leadership convention, but one matter everyone seems to agree on is that they hate the "equity cards."

@Lea_Christina4 Wow! That is some serious weight. Well done. So sorry you were disciplined for speaking out.

This is me at the Powerlifting Worlds in 2023 lifting 507lbs. It took me years of training to achieve that and I still didn't medal, I got 4th place. Little did I know one month later I would be suspended for 2 years by my federation for speaking up about men competing in the womens category and that a man would walk in and pull a 578lb deadlift and crush womens records. He still holds records in Alberta to this day I can only hope that with the Olympics announcement today that the Canadian government will follow suit and demand federations to protect the female category Alberta has already started. Sports are separated by sex Sports are about integrity, fairness and safety. It is time we do the right thing and stop punishing those who speak up. @ABDanielleSmith @PierrePoilievre @xx_xyathletics @icons_women @Riley_Gaines_

@TexasPreacher I would not go as far as you do here, but I definitely want to be buried as a testimony to the resurrection.

I've preached quite a few funerals, and one trend that bothers me is cremation. It is a pagan concept, though of course most people don't know that, nor would I fight a grieving family over it. But Christians should be buried. They should not be incinerated and put into a pot or scattered along some shoreline. “It is sown a natural body, it is raised a spiritual body.” One of my favorite places in the world is an old cemetery where the gravestones intentionally face east. Just as the sun rises in the east, so believers wanted burial to testify that they were awaiting the dawning of the last day, when Christ will appear and the dead will be raised. Thus even in death, and especially in an increasingly pagan culture, our bodies and the way we bury them can bear witness to the resurrection. Christians should make use of the opportunity.

@LynneBr37562004 How depressing.

@da_gr8_immanuel @Math_files That is precisely the point of the joke.

@Math_files If you think about it, they both acted misogynistic

Two mathematicians were in a restaurant. One of them was a hard-core misogynist and claimed that women were never any good at maths, especially the blonde ones. His friend claimed that there was no difference and that women were just as capable as men. When the misogynist went for a cigarette, the other guy called over the blonde waitress. “My friend and I are having an argument. When he gets back I’ll call you over and ask you a question. The answer you need to give is ‘a third X cubed’. Can you do that?” “Thurdeks coobed?” “a third X cubed.” “a Third Ekscubed. Sure I can do that.” The other chap comes back to the table and his friend says. “I’ll prove to you that women are as good as men at maths. See the blond waitress; I’ll ask her a question and we’ll see if she knows any maths.” So he calls the waitress over and asks, “What is the integral of X squared?” As quick as a shot, she comes out with “A third X cubed.” The misogynist is stunned. The waitress smiles and walks away. Then she stops and calls back, “plus a constant.”

@azgopeducator @MrDanielBuck I agree. If Admin fights you on this, it is tough to enforce.

@MrDanielBuck That is great you were able to enforce it without an administrative pushback. Such a policy teaches students responsibility, and I agree with it 100%.

Later into my teaching career, I set a simple classroom rule: No late work, none Kids didn’t start failing en masse Instead, they all started turning their work in on time, no rush of late assignments at semester’s end, fewer students falling behind It was a more humane rule

@TolentinoTeach It depends on the specific class. But in general I agree.

Thoughts?

@CTVKitchener According to the article, they left bicycle tire marks. I think I am missing something: tire marks are common on most roads.

@deeb_nina @TDotResident It wasn't just Conestoga. Most Colleges, Universities and "colleges" were at the all you can eat buffet as well.

@TDotResident He hasn’t been to any nuvercity. He does not know what programs are offered. The federal government capped the number of international students and reduced the programs offered-to punish all of Canada’s universities for the bad behaviour of Conestoga College.

There is no such thing as a university student taking basket weaving.

@Mikehomeseller Bird.

Which one would you take to hit the last shot? #mikesquestions

@nationalpost Absolutely appalling. And we reelected the party that did this to us.

@WR_Record Good riddance.

More groups from Waterloo Region are calling for greater public input into an education overhaul that is expected to see the elimination of English public school board trustees in Ontario this year. therecord.com/news/waterloo-…

@WR_Record Disappointing.

Controversial comedian show has been ‘relocated,’ City of Kitchener says therecord.com/news/waterloo-…

@WR_Record Luisa D'Amato is absolutely correct here. There are many things which go on at City venues which I find objectionable and damaging to our society, so I choose not to attend. I do not attempt to bend others to my will.

Ben Bankas is a controversial comic — If you don’t like the jokes, don’t go to the show. It’s making a commitment to free speech. The City of Kitchener should still let him go ahead with his comedy show at a city-owned facility, Luisa D’Amato argues. therecord.com/opinion/column…

I, even I, am the one who wipes out your transgressions for My own sake, And I will not remember your sins. Isaiah 43:25 Forgiveness of sins is not a response to our worthiness, but an outworking of God's character.

@ryangerritsen I strongly agree they should have been removed by the police. I strongly disagree that freezing bank accounts and invoking the emergency act was warranted

Mark Carney during the Convoy went out of his way to write an article to the media asking for the police to do their job and remove these peacefully protesting Canadians. He called them seditionists. He had no problem with this. Never forget…

@macrocephalopod So true, but so many fall for it.

Interviewed a guy for a quant research job today. Couldn’t invert a 3x3 matrix by hand. Couldn’t derive Black Scholes. Couldn’t explain the in-place quicksort algorithm on the whiteboard. Just kept talking about “stochastic gradient descent” and “reinforcement learning” If you can’t do the basics, what’s the point? Obvious no hire.

@Mikeggibbs Well said sir

I know a few people who've had the privilege of meeting Stephen Harper for longer than 15 seconds. All of them hard progressives, who had to interact with him for their job. They went into it expecting to dislike him. Instead, he was the polar opposite of how we as progressives saw him: He is VERY warm and friendly. Thoughtful (incredibly intelligent). Kind. Charming. Extremely funny. It's likely he will have you in stitches belly laughing at some point if your interaction is more lengthy. They all came out of it feeling great respect and affection for him. So, while l will always vehemently oppose many things he did in office... Here's to Prime Minister Harper on the day of his portrait hanging. May there be many more occasions like last night with Jean Chretien, where Harper showed Canadians how we can and should get along despite our differences.

The closing remarks from @stephenharper, a well deserved standing ovation. 🇨🇦 👏

Harper's portrait artist Phil Richards "Our wide ranging discussions on politics, economics, history, art, sports, psychology and gossip gave me a very different impression of Mr. Harper's personality than that which had been created by the media." Gosh, the media would never misportray a Conservative, would they? @stephenharper
