A TRICK OR A TREAT? 🎃 It’s available only in Canada. It’s available only during Halloween. No one seems to ever like them, but it mysteriously sells-out of stores every year… The story of Canada’s love-hate relationship with an 85 year old seasonal confection: The Kerr’s Molasses Candy Kiss. ottawarewind.com/2017/10/29/…

History has just been made. Alberta becomes the first province in #Canada to introduce legislation to ensure fairness and safety for female athletes. Bill29 has PASSED for first reading. It will take a few more rounds in the assembly but the bill is on its way! 🎇 #SaveWomensSports #Alberta #ableg #abpoli #cdnpoli

Reading unredacted emails between Fauci/Collins/Others, leaked DARPA documents, @EcoHealthNYC proposals, new Nature Editorials about *permanent* COVID (for which many of us were previously ridiculed…wtf?!?), doing some shopping on Amazon in anticipation of demand surges.

Facebook, WhatsApp, and Instagram all going down at the same time sure seems like an easily-understandable and publicly-popular example of why breaking up a certain monopoly into at least three pieces might not be a bad idea. Somebody should tell Elizabeth Warren.

Replying to @fordnation
@fordnation please reconsider your decision to not allow splash-pads to open at the same time as other outdoor activities like golf and basketball. It’s going to be over 30 degrees this long weekend. Please RT and email your MPP. #splishsplash

Ontario’s reopening plan essentially wipes the summer movie season off the map. (Quebec’s cinemas have been operating for the past few months without incident, btw.) And not allowing drive-ins till (maybe) July is unjustifiable nonsense.

According to Ontario's "reopening" plan, the earliest date that indoor restaurants dining would resume is July 26 - over two months from now. By then, Toronto indoor restaurants will have been closed for over 420 days. And with a maximum of $40K in grants from the province.
