A moment for this fantastic Hudson’s Bay Company Olympic coat I wore to the Manitoba Provincial Figure Skating Championship today. We believe it is from the 1968 games in France.

Someone is defacing Canadian coins with their 51st state bullshit. If you get one of these in the wild, take it to the bank to be exchanged so they can destroy it. Also defacing canada currency is illegal.

Our deepest condolences go to the families and friends of the Jazz crew of Air Canada Express flight AC8646 on March 22. Read full statement: aircanada.com/media/air-cana…

The Guess Who wasn't just a great Canadian band. Their music, lyrics and performances make them one of the greatest rock bands, period. I got the terrific opportunity to watch Burton Cummings and Randy Bachman rehearse and interview them for tonight's National (and on YouTube).

@sweet_nector1 Yes and illegal to own I believe

People keep guessing, but no one gets it right. Do you know what this is?

Statement by President George W. Bush on the passing of Robert Mueller: "Laura and I are deeply saddened by the loss of Robert Mueller. Bob dedicated his life to public service. As a Marine in Vietnam, he proved he was ready for tough assignments. He earned a Bronze Star and a Purple Heart before returning home to pursue law. In 2001, only one week into the job as the 6th Director of the F.B.I., Bob transitioned the agency mission to protecting the homeland after September 11. He led the agency effectively, helping prevent another terrorist attack on U.S. soil. Laura and I send our heartfelt sympathy to his wife of nearly 60 years, Ann, and the Mueller family."

Critics are accusing the Ford government of flooding the zone: making a wave of announcements to overwhelm the media, confuse the public & exhaust political opponents. They say the premier is trying to distract after changing access laws to keep his cellphone records secret.

I am pleased that I was able to get a TEDx talk this past January youtu.be/lJDlHzjYomM?si… #tedx #situational #mentalhealth

Name a famous captain

Trump attacks Texas Democrat James Talarico — and gets a fiery sermon in response he won’t soon forget. Donald Trump apparently thought he could score cheap political points by calling James Talarico “an insult to Jesus,” because the Texas Democratic Senate candidate is “too progressive” and believes that God does not discriminate based on gender. Unfortunately for Don the Demented, he picked the wrong person. Standing in an African American church in Texas, Talarico didn’t just respond — he delivered a moral reckoning. “The President of the United States just said that I insulted Jesus,” Talarico began. “You know what insults Jesus? Denying healthcare to the sick while cutting taxes for billionaires.” And that was only the beginning. “You know what insults Jesus?” he continued. “Deporting strangers and separating babies from their mothers.” Then he went even further, turning his anger toward war, corruption, and hypocrisy. “You know what insults Jesus? Bombing innocent schoolchildren in Iran and sending our brave men and women to die in yet another endless war… Covering up the Epstein files and then refusing to hold a single person accountable.” This wasn’t ordinary politics. It was a full-scale moral indictment. Talarico, whom Trump criticized for supporting transgender Americans and for saying that “transgender kids are God’s children,” completely flipped the script. Instead of backing down, he built his argument on the very teachings Trump tried to weaponize. “I’m not a perfect Christian,” he said. “There was only one perfect Christian, and he was crucified 2,000 years ago.” And then came the most powerful line: “Jesus told us to love our neighbors as ourselves… Can we imagine war in heaven? Can we imagine intolerance in heaven? Can we imagine poverty in heaven? Then why do we tolerate it here on Earth?” This is how you respond. Not with insults. Not with fear. But with clarity and conviction. Trump tried to smear him. Instead, Talarico delivered a sermon that is now echoing far beyond that church.
