I'll never forget seeing OUR PLACE in 2022. Kanika Ambrose's understanding of the Canadian immigration system was clever and devastating, and written like a piece of music.

Kanika opens two new plays this month: THE CHRISTMAS MARKET and MOONLIGHT SCHOONER.

Love a tough “Find a way” type of win 🙌🏾❤️
That’s a great ‘find a way’ win for the Raptors. Only led for 1:35 through 3 Qs, then held Hawks to 5-24 FG & outscored them 36-20 in the 4th. Overcame off nights from their big 3, Hawks D & rebounding issues. Offensive process improved in 2nd half & late-game D was exceptional.

I imagined trying to get through bug reports written by an LLM and immediately got an honest to god headache. What do you mean I can’t even go back to the person who wrote it and ask for more details because there isn’t one, but it can still make shit up?

Very excited for everyone to see The Christmas Market at Crows theatre, currently in previews.

A story about Caribbean migrant workers experiencing their first winter on a Canadian farm. Lots of drama, lots of laughs, lots of vibez!

I am beyond floored that Shane Bieber has exercised his option and stayed with #Bluejays. Not because I didn't think he liked it here, he absolutely did. But because he's only going to earn $12 million (US) in 2026 when he could have had 10 times that or more on the open market. Wow.
November 5, 2025 at 3:24 AM
Interesting!!! He could have gotten so much more on the open market but choose to stay with the team for the run back. I wonder how many other Jays will want to stay? And what that might say to potential free agents who want a shot at a Championship??? 🤔😏🙏🏾

The Dodgers World Series parade on Monday will be missing folks who have been arrested, imprisoned, & deported by ICE & Trump.

The Dodgers should acknowledge their absence & work with local government to create a safe space for immigrants & refugees to publicly celebrate too.

Toronto fan obviously and I hated when he said this. I know losing hurts, but don’t be a scrub. Don’t say this.

John Schneider called this “an epic World Series”.

Honestly I’m exactly here. Last nights loss hurt more than this, cause that’s just game 7’s. They tend to favor the team coming from behind.

Remember: we were LAST IN OUR DIVISION a year ago and this year we took the LA super Dodgers and their payroll to Game 7, inning 11 of the WS. 💙🤍
I’m pretty zen about this loss, #Bluejays fans. It was a great game and a great series and it feels like #Jays had their chances and just plain didn’t win.

But I do want to hear from you at [email protected] so we can talk about this together tonight.

Game 3

Game 6

Game 7 in the 9th and the 11th.

Many chances to beat the Los Angeles super-team. Just couldn’t get it done.

Heck of a season though. We gave them everything we had. Hats off to the Blue Jays. 💙🤍👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

Also yeah a wedgie at the Rogers Center is insane.

After such an incredible season, it would really suck if this was the legacy left behind from it.

Tonight they have to lock in and play smarter. The Dodgers are the Dodgers for a reason. They’re too good to give third and fourth chances too.

Oh my god, Adddison Barger was just doubled up at second to end the game.

Stunning end to Game 6.

The #BlueJays had such an opportunity and just blew it on the bases.

Well that was a shocking ending.

Similar to 2019, it’s such a joy to see almost everyone rocking some Blue Jays gear. The city is on a high and can be thrown into pandemonium tonight. You love to see it.

So many times over the past decade, #Bluejays fans have walked into this place hoping they weren’t about to see the final game of the year.

Quite the opposite tonight. How’s that feel?

Hell of a stat! 😂
It took the Jays less time to win Games 4 AND 5 (5:56) than it did for the Dodgers to win Game 3 (6:39).

He's already struck out every single Dodger, and Mookie twice for good measure
