What a beautiful piece. Colleen was a legend and one of the best curling icons — and I think many Canadians would agree. She was always a joy to watch on the ice and on the screen. She will be dearly missed 🥺❤️
Colleen Jones asked me to interview her a couple of months ago during a chemotherapy appointment.

She told me to write one heck of a story. I hope I did her proud.

About always believing something wonderful is about to happen.

Colleen Jones was a tour de force. When you were with her you felt invincible and that anything was possible. She made you a believer.

I’m gutted by this decision. So many excellent editors and writers impacted. My column, Disability Visibility is no more as well. Many thanks to Allegra for giving me this amazing opportunity www.teenvogue.com/contributor/...

Congrats, Winnipeg, for doing the thing because it turned out to be cheaper.

War is in many ways a disability justice issue. The violence that ensues causes disability

Disabled people in war zones struggle to access adequate medical care or have their basic needs met

It’s a cycle of violence that often harms the most vulnerable (whilst also creating more vulnerable people)

So this week we’ve had a man impersonating an ICE agent tie up a woman and steal $1000; a man impersonating a police officer assassinate a top Democratic politician & her husband (and shoot another Democrat & his wife); and a man impersonating a king hold a military parade for his birthday

Are you a journalist in a national Canadian newsroom who has felt institutional pressure when it comes to covering the genocide in Gaza?

I want to talk to you and can protect your identity.

Here’s my Signal. Pls include proof of identity so I can avoid the weirdos lol ❤️

Warming and cooling centres are often set up in response to extreme weather to offer safety and respite to unhoused people. The same needs to be done in response to poor air quality.

Frauds. Chokers. Losers. Let the record show the #NHLJets are none of these things.

A heartbreaking playoff finale doesn’t change the fact this was a damn good hockey team that gave us memorable moments right to the bitter end.

And now I'm crying 🥺😭
Mark Scheifele. Of course. 1-0 #NHLJets. Incredible.

Thought that maybe they'd acknowledge Papa Scheifele before the anthem... but I guess that'll happen at home for Game 7

Winnipeg is with you, Scheif ❤️
Mark Scheifele is playing tonight, says Scott Arniel.

Fans chant “shoulda kicked it” after the Jets goal by Mark Scheifele was called off because he knocked it into the net with his glove.

Funny one Winnipeg.

Chant of the playoffs and maybe the year.

DALLAS — The anger was palpable both inside and outside the #NHLJets dressing room Sunday evening. To put it bluntly, they felt like they got jobbed.
