If we've learned anything from this pandemic it's that having a plan matters.
We need a clear & practical plan for community sports & recreation activities to resume this summer, once it's safe to do so. It's critical for our physical & mental health.
Let's start the work now

There are 27,000 faith buildings in Canada and one third are set to close in the next ten years. How many not for profit and community groups currently operate programming out of faith buildings? Take the survey here: bit.ly/2Ps5B1j

For #WorldAutismAwarenessDay I’m going to try and put aside the shit show mess the Ontario Government is making and just revel in the beauty of my amazing kid and the love and support of the #autism community. #DifferentNotLess – at Toronto, Ontario
Maybe, just maybe, we can learn from @SpecialOCanada that if we put athletes first, focus on fun, accessibility, safety, surrounded by a supportive environment, and invest in all levels of the system, the results will come?
A huge shout out to our amazing @SpecialOCanada athletes for their outstanding performances in Abu Dhabi!!

#Budget2019 A 25% increase to the Sport Support Program will allow NSOs, MSOs, and CSIs to hire the right people, develop the right programs, and build the policies we need to keep kids active and make sure Canadians are able to access the benefits of values-based sport.

I LOVE what I do.
But THIS is WHY I love what I do.
I'm so lucky that Jonah & the Gore family let me tell his story, The Courage To Watch this #HockeyDay
...tonight & tomorrow AM @Sportsnet Central we're celebrating a little early!
@DetroitRedWings @kulture @Dylanlarkin39
8-year-old Jonah loves hockey but, until recently, watching an @NHL game live was out of the question.
@SNCarlyAgro has the story of how the @DetroitRedWings helped make Jonah’s dream come true by making their games more accessible for all.
#HockeyDay | sportsnet.ca/hockeyday
Great work by @kulturecity! And a shout out to our friends at @canucksautism for the awesome work they do in B.C. and across Canada. #differentnotless
I hope you all enjoy Jonah's story, #TheCourageToWatch this #HockeyDay
I think it's important to point out @kulturecity is currently in 6 @NHL venues and 240 arenas, zoos, and stadiums worldwide. Let's make it more!

Active kids have higher self esteem, better emotional regulation, better attention and they build healthier brains.
