If you are outside in NY or any freezing northeastern city, bring warm gloves, hat, blanket. If you see a person experiencing homelessness, do offer help to nearest shelter. If they prefer to stay outside, give food, money.

The history of Black Canadians is one of relentless progress, earned through perseverance, and carried forward by opening doors for so many to follow.

This week, we celebrated 30 years of Black History Month in Canada.

If Jeff Bezos could afford to spend $75 million on the Melania movie & $500 million for a yacht to sail off to his $55 million wedding to give his wife a $5 million ring, please don't tell me he needed to fire one-third of the Washington Post staff.

A few more shots from my time in Belfast. It was great to spend time there at Your Roots Are Showing. I had a matinee show at Matt Molloy's in Westport yesterday. Another week in Ireland for research. More later...

So sad to hear of the passing of the great Catherine O'Hara. SCTV was my favourite comedy show of all time largely because of the enormous talent she brought to it She was incredible in all the Christopher Guests films too. Especially her performance in "For Your Consideration" Huge loss...

More and more Americans are voicing their outrage at the tactics being deployed by federal agents in Minnesota. But it’s important to understand the broader implications of what this administration is doing, and the threat it poses to the basic freedoms of every American.

I’m running for Congress in NY-12, my home.

We have a demented, criminal president running the country like a mob operation—government by the boss, for the boss.

We need Democratic fighters who will defend the rule of law and deliver government by the people. Join us.

This is the best speech, just from a pure rhetoric perspective - its sophistication and persuasiveness - that I've seen a politician deliver in a good long while. Really recommend watching or reading the whole thing.
A YouTube link for those looking for it. No words.

The most enlightening and disappointing thing to come out of this ICE shooting is that the right legitimately does not give a fuck about human life if it harms their political narrative.

Watching people malign a 37 year old mother for being murdered by her country is insane.

Yes, JD. Let’s ask them if they think a stay at home mom, avowed Christian, and widow of a veteran deserved to be shot in the face and left to bleed out in her own car after dropping her 6-year-old off at school, for the crime of looking out for her neighbors. Let’s ask everyone running for office.

Bees need flowers to survive. We need bees to survive. Bees are dying. If everyone would "accidentally" scatter native flower seeds in public areas, the public areas would be prettier, the bees could survive, and we could survive. I see no downside.
