At the end of February, I have an episode about The Crazy Canucks ski team.
So putting it out there. If anyone knows one of them, or how to contact one of the Crazy Canucks, I would love to interview one or more of them for the episode.

Quick note to anyone thinking of buying my books: please purchase the new Swift Press versions, NOT the relatively small number of Unbound versions still knocking about, & being sold by OOINYA. Unbound stopped paying me for my work early in 2024 and I will never see a penny for these books.

Less than 24 hours after posting this documentary to Instagram, we got locked out of our account. It’s about the crackdown on pro Palestinian protests on campuses across Montreal. We need your help to get the word out. 🙏 l.instagram.com?u=https%3A%2...
Palestine on Campus: the Student Movement in Montreal Schools
Since the first student encampment in solidarity with Palestine went up at McGill University last year, the student movement has only grown, organizing and diversifying tactics to pressure schools to divest academically and financially from Israel. In Palestine on Campus, The Rover’s Savannah Stewart and Justin Khan look back on the events of the last school year at McGill, Concordia and Dawson College, revealing how pro-Palestinian activism has raised tensions between university administrations and their student bodies and been the target of pushback from a variety of sources. Our investigation highlights an apparent lack of communication between university administrations and the student movement for Palestine, which enjoys broad support among the student body as evidenced by incredibly successful strike votes and divestment votes at both universities. In the absence of a meaningful reconciliation between the goals of the administrations and the demands of the students, we hope this documentary can help initiate the necessary conversations to chart a path forward. — Find in-depth investigative journalism, political commentary, podcast episodes and more at https://therover.ca/ Don’t miss out!

A national monument to paramedics is a declaration. It says that in the face of chaos, we choose care; that amid crisis, we remember those who ran toward danger, not away from it. In honouring them, we reaffirm who we are, and what we are willing to protect.

I honestly despise politicians running on tax cuts.
Fuck that.
Explain what taxes do to help people.
Explain the services they provide.
Explain the extra costs they'll pay because of tax cuts.

Canada’s new national sport is finding bourbon alternatives. So if you’re lucky enough to be in eastern Ontario get yourself a bottle of Dunrobin whisky. As good as any bourbon i’ve had. This is serious business. I would not mislead. #buyCanadian 🇨🇦🥃
