A message for both Americans & Canadians. If you are buying a new or used vechcle, check the VIN. If it starts with 1 it was made in the USA. If it starts with 2, the car was made in Canada. Buy Canadian please ! 🇨🇦

Maine is blocking supply trucks headed to Campobello Island, New Brunswick. Maine gets a significant share of its electricity from New Brunswick. Trump is being petty. Want to see what happens when people are petty? Just wait... www.theglobeandmail.com/politics/art...

We men have a terrible record on supporting women on this issue. I suspect young men will suffer the consequences of this failure for years to come. The time to change is now. Shame every misogynist you come across. Educate your sons to respect all women. Above all, listen to the women in your life.

They would sell themselves, and their province, to the Trump administration for pennies on the dollar. The question I keep asking: why has the business community been so willing to go along with this charade for so long?

I played rugby for eight years and (hopefully) got off lucky with only one concussion that I know of (head, meet goalpost!). Based on what we know now I would certainly discourage my son or daughter from playing.

Most of the word count in this op-ed was consumed by Harper re-hashing grievances with the Trudeau government and its supposedly nefarious intentions for the oil and gas industry -- and, as Jason says, completely misrepresenting the level of support for separatism when he was in office.

Years ago, this installation by Do-Ho Suh, set into the floor at the entrance to Lutèce at the Venetian, blew my mind. Few people even noticed it. Little did I know that this oval glass panel, held up by 19,000 tiny figures, would come to represent a perfect image of our current reality.

Misandry? Have you not been listening to the women in your life? The percentage of women who have suffered SA is astonishing in this day and age. I live in a fairly idyllic spot but even here we have a very busy women’s shelter. They do great work but our goal should be to eliminate the need!

When kids aren't taught sex ed they learn from porn. "If we learn about sex through porn, we’re learning about the worst of humanity," said Kristen Gilbert, a sex ed teacher. Many students ask her about choking: if they should like it, if their partners expect it, because they see it in porn.

We’ve been making our granola for a while now. Yes to maple syrup, cinnamon and unsweetened coconut (also orange juice) but leery of the nutmeg! Pecans roasted for 15 minutes feature in ours but are expensive. Recently tried hazelnuts which worked well in moderation.
