I truly, deeply, sincerely do think the guy flipping burgers at McDonalds should be able to afford rent, bills, and groceries with his paycheck alone. That's kind of the whole point of having a job and I can't believe this is considered a radical position.🤷🏽‍♀️

The feds will roll out the “special mediator” and then say it’s not them doing the dirty work. This bill will be an attack on the fundamental right to strike and bargain collectively. Don’t trust Hajdu.

The Trolley Problem, Canadian edition. On the one hand, homegrown asshole Kevin O'Leary. On the other, imported asshole Pete Hoekstra. The problem is you only have one trolley.

BC clearly wants to reclaim its "craziest political climate in Canada" crown from Alberta.

On this day in 1944, the Gestapo found Anne Frank and her family in their Secret Annex. Her diary stands as a warning against hatred and persecution. Eighty years later, we should recognize the warning signs before it’s too late.🙂‍↕️

If I could be granted one wish that would change the world for the better… Find a dog to adopt. That’s it. Simple as that. There are millions out there waiting ❤️

While leaving work today we drove past 2 young (late teens/ early 20s) men in dress shirts & slacks holding up large, Pro-Life signs. Like, dudes- if you want a say, you should have to have a uterus.

My favorite holiday is the day you get grocery shopping done and you can celebrate the long period of time before you have to go grocery shopping again.

Britney is still probably the hardest rescue I've ever had to do. To see her back with us and to have brought Sam along to work with us is still hard to believe. May have had a little tear myself watching this if I am honest!

First day of holidays - slept in, baileys and coffee and shortbread. Not too shabby.
