2024 Walk to End ALS - Ontario : Rich for Team Pendlebury alscanadawalktoendals.als.ca/ontario/rich-f…

Interested in starting dialogue with #ALS sufferers/caregivers about what we could do at @BlueJays Lou Gehrig Day (June 2) in Toronto to bring attention here in Canada and how to increase fundraising. I have ideas. PMs open @ALSAction @ALSCanada @Sportsnet #ENDALS

@agawap !

Curious series of questions… have you had a non-Indigenous friend cozy up and befriend you only to constantly pick your brain (zero reciprocity) then- graduate with an Indigenous Studies degree then works as a consultant speaking on behalf of Indigenous people & now ghosts you.

This is a for-profit, Non-Indigenous, off-shore business that is using our trauma to make money If you need to purchase an orange shirt to show your support, please purchase from an Indigenous artist or business The best is @woodlandcc which helps support our culture & educates

@agawap Nice to have your voice back in these open spaces.

It's Friday and I am so excited to share with you the new trailer for No Ordinary Campaign, @noc_film, which includes a cameo from @BarackObama. This is a story about ALS but it is also a love story, as well as a story about doing the impossible. I hope you like it.

If you read one thing today it should be this thread.
