Apologies, somehow the original was deleted. I'm undergoing my 3rd urgent, non-elective revision spinal fusion this Oct to replace & extend my hardware. I'd appreciate any help in achieving this goal to ensure I have the resources necessary to recover safely & fully.

The Canadian government is defunding WAGE, maritime provinces keep trying to close abortion facilities, Danielle Smith is making little girls produce their birth certificate s to play sports, the Health Minister has no plan for women’s healthcare, are we noticing a fucking theme yet?

So after the deaths this year, I was finding no joy in knitting. Grief is funny. Complicated. I want to talk to Ben about this sweater, but he's gone. I miss my mother (and she was a hard mean woman).

But! I sat down and started up again. Both side panels, one sleeve, and the back panel are done.

Fatima's left index finger with a callous she earned through knitting!

A red panel of knitting sits on a table. It's the last panel!!

The Trillium is hammering this story.

"Months before he was put in charge of Ontario’s Ministry of Labour, cabinet minister David Piccini was at a Toronto Maple Leafs game in front-row seats with a director of a company his office would later give $7.5 million in taxpayer-funded grants to. #OnPoli

Labour minister was in Leafs glass seats with director of company he granted funding to

The ‘lower-scoring’ company got $7.5M of tax dollars through David Piccini’s office and is a client of the lobbyist whose Parisian wedding the minister recently attended

Hi friends. I have until October 23rd to raise the remaining $2228 for out of pocket medical costs for my third non-elective revision spinal fusion. Any continued support is appreciated.
