@KatieMagnet You got staples? I was crazy glued! Well, they called it surgical glue, but we all know that it's just crazy glue. I'm glad that you are doing well! ❤️

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 got followers for boobs . Not

@PhilAMcBride Cheers 🍻

No politics, no work, nothing serious today. Just enjoying paradise in Las Lajas.

@CamGuthrie You are leaving some big shoes to fill. I'll miss you being our Mayor!

After three terms as Mayor of Guelph, I have decided not to seek re-election this October. I will step aside and pass the baton to the leader our voters choose.   Serving in this role has been an honour and a joy, which made this decision incredibly difficult. Yet I am also at peace with it. Most importantly, it has the full support of my amazing wife Rachel and our children. 
As a person of faith, I thank God, who I believe has guided me every step of this journey since the beginning. Today, I feel the same prompting toward a new chapter, one whose path isn’t fully clear, but one I know will be exciting. 
Announcing early allows for a smooth transition. Important files and initiatives continue even during an election, and I want to help steer them to completion while working collaboratively with whoever is elected.
 I am deeply proud of what we’ve accomplished together. With the support from staff, councillors, and our community, some highlights for me include:
• Rebuilding and restoring relationships with other levels of government
• Improving communication and engagement so residents are better informed
• Protecting taxpayers’ dollars and ensuring every dollar delivers real value
• Advancing supportive housing to help those experiencing homelessness 
• Welcoming new businesses and newcomers, and celebrating Guelph’s growth and increased economic development through countless ribbon-cuttings – I will always cherish these interactions The new South End Community Centre, opening by the end of this term, will be a fantastic addition for so many families.
 A few special moments stand out as especially meaningful:
• Reintroducing the Christmas tree lighting ceremony in Market Square
• Shutting down Carden Street to celebrate the Raptors’ NBA championship with 2,000 fans jumping for joy
• Opening the Veterans Crosswalk, a reminder to honour those who sacrificed for our freedoms
 I will stay fully engaged for the remaining months of my term, leading with the same energy and enthusiasm I’ve always brought to this role. My focus remains on what I believe matters most: public safety, respecting taxpayers’ dollars, building homes, and—hopefully—bringing a few laughs along the way.   Thank you, Guelph. I feel truly blessed every single day to have served you as I worked towards shaping our city into a place we’re all proud to call home.   With gratitude,   Cam Guthrie

@KatieMagnet Hi, Katie, from another heart transplant recipient.

Hi 42k followers 👏👏👏 say hi

@lisadrewradio And I know that you have seen that heart transplants work! UHN certainly does amazing work 👏

By the end of 2024, the Canadian Institute for Health Information says there were 184 Canadians waiting for heart transplants—29 of whom were children. This type of transplant is projected to boost the heart donor pool by 30 per cent, UHN said.

@KatieMagnet It's difficult, but I constantly tell myself that my donor was going to die whether or not he was going to be a donor. Because he was a donor, I consider him as my hero! Congratulations on your 10th Heartiversary! It feels amazing, doesn't it! ❤️

This week has always been a struggle for me. The overwhelming grief for my donor. The chance of life but understanding a new me. I dont think i will ever get used to. I am grateful for 10 years more on this planet . For everything in my life right now. Please #shareyourwishes

@VE5REV It's a television antenna that was popular in the 70's and 80's.

Ok I give up. Anyone know what this is? 🤔

@KR4BSJ I hope that you got hearing protection as well. That sucker is LOUD!

@K0LWC Great VHF UHF radio. I have 3 of them. Enjoy.

Got my hands on something interesting today. #HamRadio

@VE3PCP @CARA_club I'm looking forward to this year.

@KatieMagnet Yes, we have to be thankful for smart people! And, of course, for being fighters! You are pretty awesome yourself.

May : ten years for me 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰 glad you are doing well x #shareyourwishes

@KatieMagnet And after 1 year the odds increase, and after 5 years even better. I'm personally looking forward to July this year, as it will be 10 years for me. You seem to be doing awesome. Keep it up! ❤️

Chances of making it through the first 90 days after heart transplant 1 in 10. Crying i never knew that 💞 . I am the luckiest woman x

@PhilAMcBride @siomoCTV He has to stay long enough for Jag to get his pension, and then we are done for good with both of them.

@siomoCTV The longer they're in the legislature, the more time they have to screw up our lives. I'm happy when they're at their constituent offices dealing with voters. Besides, he's gonna come back, put a budget on the floor and call an election.

BREAKING: Ontario legislature won't resume until Mon. March 3, 2025, that's a longer than usual break. Usually back just after Family Day in February #onpoli

@hearthealthydoc You had me at the Best Coffee Shop! I found out that my donor loved strong black coffee, so I make sure that he gets a couple every day. Sounds like an amazing trip. Enjoy

Our 60km ride in under 2 minutes. This was the "perfect" trail - stunning views AND on route to the best coffee shop in the world. 🚵 More on the blog: testyourlimits.ca/blog/

@hearthealthydoc @uhnfoundation @UHN @PMunkCardiacCtr @TransformHF @trogersresearch Coffee ☕️ is definitely essential. My heart donor loved strong black coffee, and I make sure that he gets a couple every day.

🛬 After a long journey, we finally made it to Christchurch, New Zealand. We dropped our bags and headed out into the beautiful city, wandering the local markets and stocking up on essentials (coffee & chocolate). Tomorrow it begins...testyourlimits.ca/2024/11/24/day…

@HeartDaveWebb I have the same words on a shirt that I wore when I bought my last motorcycle. My wife just said, "Go ahead, I can't say no."

@KatieMagnet @share_wishes Happy Heartiversary ❤️

In 2015 I spent 9 mths in hospital. After my heart transplant my kidneys failed for 12 weeks. Mini 🧲 had his 10th birthday in hospital with me. Tomorrow he is 19. Feeling very blessed. Please @share_wishes talk to your families about your decisions. Thank you
