Democracy is a precondition for lasting peace. However, we live in a world where democracy is in retreat, where more and more authoritarian regimes are challenging norms and resorting to violence.

Maria Corina Machado – awarded the 2025 #NobelPeacePrize – has spent years working for the freedom of the Venezuelan people. The Venezuelan regime’s rigid hold on power and its repression of the population are not unique in the world. We see the same trends globally: rule of law abused by those in control, free media silenced, critics imprisoned, and societies pushed towards authoritarian rule and militarisation. In 2024, more elections were held than ever before, but fewer and fewer are free and fair.

I’ve openly criticized John Schneider over the years. That being said, the bullpen game against the Yankees was his best managerial game of his career. The game plan he and Pete Walker came up with was unbelievable, and it was executed flawlessly. Absolute masterclass 👏👏👏 #Bluejays #Canada

But he's nobody's hero
Saves a drowning child
Cures a wasting disease
Hero...lands the crippled airplane
Solves great mysteries
Hero...not the handsome actor
Who plays a hero's role
Hero...not the glamour girl
Who'd love to sell her soul…

Fingers crossed for Detroit. Skubal is pitching tomorrow, which means his next start would be game 3 in Detroit. If it doesn’t go to 7 games, that’ll be the only time we’ll face him. #Bluejays

If I screamed there was a good chance I would’ve shattered some glasses

Seeing Big Papi encouraging Vladdy to make fun of beating the Yankees with Arod and Jeter sitting there ready to cry was legit the greatest troll of all time 😂😂😂 #Bluejays #Toronto #Canada

Didn’t scream even though I wanted too. Didn’t want to wake him. Was jumping up and down fist pumping the air like an idiot though 😂

My son woke up at 5:30 am, turned on the tv, saw the #Bluejays won and ran around the house screaming for 30 minutes straight. It was so awesome to see him so happy and excited that our team won 😁🥹😁🥹 #Toronto #Canada
