Our greatest gift to Sinclair’s legacy would be to ensure that Canada fulfills all 94 of the Calls to Action that he gave us, so that every child feels that they belong, that they have a purpose & are proud of who they are ⁦@TanyaTalaga⁩ theglobeandmail.com/opinion/articl…

@MeWritesGood @elamin88 Except it’s Canadian National Treasure Tom Power

@elamin88 So...are we pretending the guy behind the pole doesn't look exactly like JD Vance? 😆

Back from Newfoundland, thought you should see this little bit of magic

@archer_rs I'm enjoying this saga; maybe when the dust has settled you'll want to read this Alberta case all about Organized Pseudolegal Commercial Arguments: canlii.org/en/ab/abqb/doc…

We thought to introduce a little panache into events so this morning my son in law dug out an old Dordogne flag we had in the garages. He has cleaned it up and we shall undertake a symbolic planting when Gary and Reg appear. They should enjoy that.

One of my farm workers is also now making free with the fire extinguisher and it's fair to say he's enjoying himself. Both Reg and Gary are now bathed in a light glow of powder. They are shouting at him about maritime law and the rights of freeman. He doesn't speak English.

Best tweet so far far this year

Edna’s coffin was borne across the waves in glorious sunshine to her final resting place on Holy Island in Lough Derg. The men working in relays, carried her up & over the brow of the hill down to the ancient graveyard...a plot beside her mother’s people. irishtimes.com/ireland/2024/0…

@PetrocTrelawny @kathryntickell @BBCRadio3 Hats off to you and your team for a wonderful week! We've been listening all the way from British Columbia. We laughed, we cried ...

@LindyTango @TheFigen_ thank you!

@TheFigen_ These are my Lindy Hop friends, Nils and Bianca. Here’s a video of them dancing to the actual music being played, and without the video flipped (in Lindy Hop the leader leads with the left-hand, not the right.) youtu.be/ArmLM1Od0tA?si…

We say of some things that they can’t be forgiven, or that we will never forgive ourselves. But we do – we do it all the time. - “Dear Life”

Beautiful work

@maureenatsfu All the very best to you Maureen!

Fabulous thread

@eatDEWwrite @MargaretAtwood try again ... #alicemunro

Very sorry to hear that very old friend and fellow writer #AliceMunro has died. It would have been her 93rd birthday in July. Many memories, for over 45 years...

@CjgbVictoria what a wonderful obituary

I'm sorry to learn that my old professor Margaret Doxey has died. obituaries.thestar.com/obituary/marga…

@DrPragyaAgarwal As the latest drama unfolded I was longing for the wisdom of Hilary Mantel. But then I found it in the article you mention; her thinking as relevant today as in 2013. A tremendous mind, gone far too soon.

@amber_bowen Anything by Iris Murdoch

I am teaching a class called Philosophy and Literature in the fall. What are your favorite literary works that are especially philosophically intriguing?

@AnnLinkReville Congratulations!

The photo isn’t awesome. But damn, if I don’t love this sweater #Knitting
