Here's a photo of my friend and colleague, Jorge Bautista, getting shot in the face with a flashbang grenade. The ICE Agent is so afraid of Jorge (who was posing no threat) that he has wet himself. Please share this photo. Everyone needs to know what cowards ICE agents are.
No sure if anyone did this, but it would be a good bit to have the Jays viewing parties in Ottawa at the Ottawa Rogers Centre
Pinto's line double shifted in the offensive zone when Timmy hadn't played a shift in minutes. Weird stuff

Big year for photos of clergy enduring pain while protesting ICE.

Endless tacos and nachos at least
Got seats at the Ledge tonight, so you know I had a beautiful view of that Flyers goal 30 seconds in 😔

Politicians like to bleat on and on about getting tough on crime.

But not crimes committed with cars.

Those aren't crimes to them. They're the cost of doing business in a car dependent city. #yyccc

Don't expect anyone to care when you are the next victim. www.ctvnews.ca/calgary/arti...

The math on Lansdowne 2.0 is all lies and gimmicks.

Like, $6 million from raising the hotel tax. That doesn't actually have anything to do with Lansdowne.

Say we raised property taxes 2% and just said it all goes to Lansdowne 2.0, is that Lansdowne 2.0 paying for itself? Of course not. 🧵

Plain terrorism, nothing else. Footage has emerged of the Russian drone strike hitting a private kindergarten in Kharkiv, Ukraine. Children were inside when the strike landed.

I don’t know what the right number is, but I do know that something needs to be invested. But I also know that we have a housing crisis that we under fund, we have transit that’s under funded, we have an $11 billion infrastructure gap, we have Crumbling, social infrastructure across the city. 6/

Lansdowne 2.0 risks giving residents less for more: higher ticket prices, a smaller arena, and higher debt. Similar promises in Lansdowne 1.0 fell short. This round is off to a bad start, and I’m calling on the Mayor to delay the vote until later in November.

hang this in the louvre (there's room now)
Farm Boy had a giant butter tart in the dessert case for $4 and I had to have it. As I discovered at midnight, that's too much butter tart for one person.
It's a shame that Little guys have cost the SenaJays so much
I hope it's fixed when I'm able to visit again in 4 to 8 years. Separate bills paid at the table is good living.
