I have been a lawyer, a novelist, a playwright, a poet, a comedian, and some of those things I still am, sort-of. Half Aussie. Half Newfie. All Canadian. Pretty far left. Have 2 grown sons. One husband. One dog. Part of a horse. Also: old (over 65).

Here in toronto, we are just generally annoyed. But that is the way we normally are.

Parliamentary petition to remove that insulting Trumper goofball "ambassador to Canada", Hoekstra. Sign and share widely. www.ourcommons.ca/petitions/en...
This made me laugh so hard.
Three years ago tomorrow, I very nervously gave this speech. I knew my career as a TV journalist was dunzo, cooked, filleted, kaput the morning I wrote it. (Thanks to Kat insisting I go for it anyway.) The end is awfully prescient at this exact second, though. Big ups to Scott Pelley for fighting.
So, it was okay that he didn't (doesn't) care about "other" people, but when he doesn't care about YOU, it's a dealbreaker?
Last week a dear friend found out she had been diagnosed with breast cancer. She was weeping. What would the treatment be? would she survive? what about her family? Will she be disfigured? Will there be pain? Things she did NOT have to cry about: the cost of treatment. Not one bit. Because Canada.
Meanwhile, in toronto canada, we had a high of 9 degrees and still haven't had it reach spring temperatures for more than a day at a time yet. It's extraordinary. Can we borrow some heat? And by the way, that's centigrade for all you americans. :)

Petition e-7124 - Petitions
At the Toronto school board's AI policy information session tonight. Will share learnings. A teacher is sharing an experience of teaching writing and finding that 70 to 75% of essays appear to be AI generated or supported. Huge abuse.
This is the maga garbage Alberta has to put up with. They want to separate from Canada and join the USA. They make threats openly to various members of the province. Hopefully the RCMP have paid a visit to them.
