Ahem.

We give you Gander. The app. On a phone.

Not public yet… but it’s real, in our hands, and soon in beta.

The timing is a bit nuts… given we just opened investment to all Canadians (at frontfundr.com/gandersocial) but we’re over the moon.

Amazing what can get done with community.

The mark of a good society is community. What this man is doing is amazing! I love watching these, but this one stung. When I saw that sweet boy choose milk, bread, and eggs. Small businesses like this that serve communities are going to suffer due to the SNAP cuts, and possible eradication…

As usual Doug Ford leads us backwards while major cities around the world progress. Fewer motor vehicles, less pollution & a healthier population result. Where bike and pedestrian areas replace vehicular traffic people are more likely to visit businesses. Time to rid Ontario of the dinosaur.

Listened to Poilievre interviewed by Rosie today
Its unbelievable how he lies and twists time lines.

Also, to tell Canadians he will use the Not Withstanding clause to change sentencing should SCARE everyone.

If you don't know that Premiers, not Prime Ministers, are head of a province, you have no business being the ambassador. Can you not do your homework or at least read a basic primer on how the Canadian gov't works? So disrespectful, ignorant, and unaware. Go home!

I’m very very clear eyed that nobody is going to be 100% thrilled with this budget— myself included.

BUT— I’m also very clear eyed we need to make sacrifices in the short term to have a long term future for Canadians because the world has REALLY changed.

I don't feel bad for the Blue Jays. Great club, great fans, great culture. They were the underdog and pushed one of the most stacked teams ever to the brink in Game 7 and I would argue carried the most momentum throughout the series. They got every reason to stand tall.

PM Carney takes a jab at PoiLIEvre: “You know, one of the advantages of having your security clearance is you’re better informed about some of the threats [facing Canada], and I highly recommend that anyone either in a position of responsibility—or seeking it—has their security clearance.”

What a season.

This was about so much more than baseball. The tears from Vladdy were Canada’s tears.

The Jays accomplished what no other MLB team could: they united a country.

Proud to be Canadian tonight.

Argh. Figures this would end up going the distance.

Love the Jays manager & players in the interviews after that tough ending. Zero negativity, page immediately turned, confident and joyous even about playing a huge Game 7 at home.

“Two best words in sports. Game 7.”

Get it tomorrow, boys. The whole country is behind you.

Meiselas: Right now, this idea of the bully has been glorified, and we have to disabuse people of that notion and say, “Nah, that’s weakness.” Stop blaming your problems marginalized groups.

We have to proudly support communities that have been under attack—’cause they’re human beings, dammit.
