@MatSiscoe @MeridianCentre_ @jimjefferies @jimmycarr How close were you to the family that left? That twist was almost too perfect to be real.

Amazing night @MeridianCentre_ watching @jimjefferies and @jimmycarr tear the lid off.
Hilarious night in a packed house - set a record with over 6k in attendance!

@maxfawcett @acoyne @mattgurney I’m pretty sure LJI program explicitly prohibits its reporters from writing opinion pieces

I don't love the way the feds have designed and deployed its supports here. I'm sympathetic to arguments made by people like @acoyne and @mattgurney.
But we need a more serious conversation about what we should do in their place. And "nothing" isn't a serious answer.

Here's a genuine answer for Sean.
I think his question is a bit of a straw man, since it's not at all clear to me that Bruce is being "subsidized" any more than the opinion writers at the National Post or Calgary Herald are.
A brief thread:
Sean Speer@Sean_Speer
Here’s a genuine question for proponents of journalism subsidies: if the case for public subsidies is that news and reporting (particularly local news) is facing a market failure, what’s the argument for subsidizing opinion columnists? How is it in the public interest that columnists are effectively sheltered from market forces? Why in other words are taxpayers forced to subsidize the employment of people like Bruce Arthur?

We've got what appears to be a very pre-Christmas break council agenda in Fort Erie tonight. Follow along if you're feeling frosty.

@josh_wingrove It'll be so easy for Canada and Mexico to solve the fentanyl crisis, but no promises on daylight saving time?

@OliviaGraceSP I'm still holding out some hope they sign Burnes and a bopper, but I like your win-win outlook.

Well, I suppose if this is all the Jays have to show for the Winter Meetings (an L if there ever was one) Atkins, Shapiro and company will be fired in 2026, even though they should have been fired literally years ago, and by fired I mean YEETED INTO THE SUN

@timlewisgeddes Her sister's over there so when they went off to do Harry Potter stuff I cozied up at a local pub.

It's been a year since my last story for Niagara this Week was published. I wasn't sure what the future had in store when I went on vacation to England, but when I returned I had no job, 13 years gone in a blink.

Support your local news outlets so people like me can watch hours of council meetings a week and write about the whacky things your municipal politicians get up to.

For fun, here's the story that was my last for NTW. I hardly went out with a bang, but nevertheless @gamru240 is still a cool org with kick ass volunteers. niagarathisweek.com/news/grimsby-v…
