Laurens Vanthoor + ways of crashing at Mandarin is fast becoming legendary. I hear it was backwards this year. #MacauGrandPrix

I got the job 💕🥳🎉 I am returning to being an Employment Coordinator AND retaining my role as a Peer Mental Health Outreach Facilitator. I scored the career jackpot yesterday! Two roles I love, one job, one employer!!!

Let me be very VERY clear. The Prime Minister is not stoking #Canadian anger at the #USA. The #USAImperialist Administration and their #AmbassadorToCanada don’t need any inside help to make Canadians angry. The #AmericanAdministration is doing an awesome job of pissing off Canadians on its own.

This morning, I infiltrated the #Diefenbunker, the federal central nuclear shelter from the Cold War era. It’s awesome and sobering. You should go!

Okay, so… Six days ago, the apartment next to mine caught fire. Life has been equal parts misery and gratitude that we didn’t lose anything. Throw a huge shit fit if your neighbours store their Ebike in their apartment. Nobody needs what my neighbours and I are dealing with.

Saw a reel from Instagram of an aerial demonstration team with red, white, and blue smoke, reading “Greatest Air Force in the world 🇺🇸 “ While the #AirForce shown in the video is among the best in the #world, I wasn’t aware that the #RAFRedArrows had defected from 🇬🇧 to 🇺🇸. 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Right now, there’s a bunch of people sitting in a #NATO situation room trying to figure how to get out of #WorldWarIII. Let’s all hope they manage to do it. Saner heads MUST prevail.

So, funny thing. Wearing a uniform or telling me you’re an officer means nothing. I want a name, a visible badge, and an occurrence number. None of those items presented, and I don’t have to deal with you. Period. Why? Ask anyone in Nova Scotia why. They’ll tell you.

@albomp.bsky.social From a Canadian, my gratitude to Australia, in particular New South Wales, for your support of our country during the Wildfire emergency. I live far away from the fires, and yet, I am aware of how dangerous this is for my fellow citizens. Colene, Cambridge ON

This is an interesting twist. President Trump wanted Canada to spend money on defence and buy USA. Canada? So pissed off we’re doing it all ourselves or partnering with European countries. This has to be the second politest screw off in history 🤣 #trump #canada #defence #tariffs #tariffwar

There’s a lot of stuff shared online from LA that I don’t trust. I do 100% believe that an LAPD officer arbitrarily shot an Australian Reporter (with an Aussie media outlet) in the leg. You can’t deny something you did while it’s live for the world to see. We call this an International Incident.

A police officer was seen aiming his gun and firing at 9News' Lauren Tomasi as she reported from the front...

So, in the last 24 hours, one person called me American, fundamentalist Christian, and Islamaphobic. Why? Because I refuse to date men who support the Taliban. I’m Canadian, not Christian, and have dated Muslim men ( my last serious dating partner was Muslim). Whatever 🤷‍♀️ #NoToTheTaliban

Today….Landlord denies rental to potential tenant on basis of 30% “rule of thumb”. Me: Get that in writing. Them: The Landlord put it in an email. Me: I love it when jerks are stupid like that. Google “Ontario Human Rights Code Landlord”. #HumanRightsMatter

@cambridge.ca is holding public consultations on new zoning by-laws. They probably shouldn’t have sent me a notice. I’m going to be a bit of a pain to them. #AffordableHousing #SupportiveHousing #ReduceTheRedTape #BuildNowNotYearsFromNow

I liked it better last August when my biggest worry was whether or not my father’s home got hit by an F2 tornado. It was less stressful than now.

Now two places the UK partitioned up post-WWII are killing each other over the land. The lesson here? The UK sucks at creating peace by partitioning other peoples’ land.

Dear USA, Good news! As of today, you are “subsidizing” Canada 6% less than you were in January. Congratulations on losing money 🤣 #BoycottUSA Me

Tomorrow is a difficult day. Five years ago, I lost my mother and grandmother 12 hours apart. I miss them both ALL the time 🥹 Here’s to Brenda & Sylvia! Two incredible women that made me the woman I am now. Love you both 💕🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🇨🇦

Sticker shock today. I went to buy toothpaste and…$10 for a tube of toothpaste is outrageous! Checked, and it’s got a 25% tariff on it. The search for a non-USA brand begins (sigh). #Tariffs #ByeByeUSAProduct

@mark-carney.bsky.social, my hope is the next time we meet in person you’ll still be Prime Minister. I also promise to use English 😀 The Anglophone woman from Cambridge who has the Francophone accent 🇨🇦 PS. Still think your wife is wicked badass smart too! 💕

This morning I dropped off a Rosary to one of my Participants that I purchased at a Basilica as a souvenir. Hers had been stolen from her in a Shelter. When she thanked me, this is what I said: “I can’t think of any reason why a non-Catholic should have 6 Rosaries, and Catholic should have none.”

Friday evening, in Brantford for the Liberal Party rally, there were several Conservative Party members with megaphones yelling insults and obscenities at the people waiting to be let into the venue. This was challenging to listen to, and I want to share why it was. 1/?

When I turned 16, my grandfather missed my birthday due to a lead up event to the 1985 Ontario election. #DavidPeterson wished me “Happy Birthday!” in his event speech. Forty years minus one day, I’m celebrating my 56th birthday with @markcarneyforpm.bsky.social . #HistoryRepeats itself 😀🥳
