Today is THE day. After months of following the advice of 4 amazing @Sunnybrook doctors, I have finished my treatment: 7 chemo sessions, one 10-hr surgery & 16 radiation appointments. For those keeping score Cancer: 0 Meg: 1 #TakeThatCancer

Welcome aboard, @AndyBlatchford! I've had the joy of working with him before. He's not just a multi-talented reporter — a great writer, and prolific deliverer of scoops; he’s also one of the nicest people you'll meet in this business.

Meanwhile in Sweden: Whenever someone donates blood, they get more than just juice and cookies afterwards. They get a personal text message when the blood is used to save someone's life. It says: "Thank you, the blood you gave is now helping someone else." (📸 @Blodcentralen)

I don’t know how to put this in words. Thank you to the greatest organization in sports for how much they care about their fans. I accept this championship ring on behalf of every @Raptors fan across the globe. Words do not express what this means to me.

@AndyBlatchford @JulienArsenault @LP_LaPresse Hahahahaha. But of course!

SNC-Lavalin shares rose this morning following the Liberal election win. bit.ly/2PaZaBW @JulienArsenault reports. #cdnpoli #elxn43

Now—finally—Parliament can demand real answers on SNC-Lavalin - Macleans.ca macleans.ca/opinion/now-fi…

@thebeckycoles @rexthetvterrier @CheriDiNovo Correct!!

@NEWSTALK1010 hooray!!

#Toronto Raptors have signed Pascal Siakam to a 4-year, $130 million dollar max extension, according to ESPN. #NBA #Raptors #WeTheNorth

@MooreintheAM This is good!

Every pair of pants I own has liver treats in the pocket.

@mfisheroverseas @globeandmail Must be doing something right.

China issues angry criticism of Stephen Harper’s visit to Taiwan - The Globe and Mail. Great! Glad Beijing is paying attention. theglobeandmail.com/world/article-…

What does it take? It takes a team. @NNRunningTeam

@naeisel You’ve been boycotting the wong paper Mr. Eisen — that column appeared in The Globe and Mail and you’ve misrepresented the tone.

A bad apple really does spoil the bunch. I haven’t read the National Post in Canada since they printed @blatchkiki’s “we know they’re terrorists because they have first names like Mohammed, middle names like Mohammed, and last names like Mohammed” piece.

Why couldn’t the English debate have been like this?

@simmonssteve That column today alone, about Pinball, would have got you in anyway. Way to go Sy!!

Some personal news I am humbled, stunned and rather overwhelmed to learn that I've been voted in to the Canadian Football Hall of Fame, media wing. When you do what I do, with emotion and opinion, the last thing you expect are accolades. Thanks to all who have reached out.

And a hungry nation cries as Elizabeth May says to Justin Trudeau, “Please God you don’t get elected on a majority again.”

#BREAKING: JUDGE RULES TO GRANT ACCREDITATION TO TRUE NORTH & REBEL’S JOURNALISTS

Did I just hear Trudeau say, of first allegations re: SNC in Globe, that “they were false”?? Please say I experienced it differently?

So even here, in the leaders’ debate, the leaders are generally taking the questions, they’re just not answering them. Thanks Seinfeld.

The problem with principles is that sometimes the money’s too good. On the NBA, Daryl Morey, Hong Kong, and China: thestar.com/sports/basketb…
