Thanks @ohsnapjbsmoove for the inspiration. I made my husband a delicious burnt-toast-pumpernickel sandwich for this birthday. Can you send him some black licorice for dessert please :-)

Toronto is catching up! Many Latin American cities turn boulevards into pedestrian/cyclists streets each Sunday. I’ve long wondered why Toronto didn’t. So glad #ActiveTO is changing that. Now let’s expand the route and make it permanent each week. #TOpoli @joe_cressy @JohnTory

Thanks for the delivery @BestBuyCanada. Ridiculous and wasteful packaging. I wonder how much materials and driving #emissions you could save if you tried. We can all take steps to waste a little less.

I know several LGBT Ugandan activists. They are courageous and kind people working to make their country and more just and equal place. This is terrible. theguardian.com/world/2019/oct…

Greta Thunberg at #UNGA: "This is all wrong. I shouldn’t be up here. I should be in school on the other side of the ocean. Yet you come to us young people for hope. How dare you. You have stolen my dreams and my childhood with your empty words." Via ABC

Hey @NDP and @SpaFYNDP I’ve tried to unsubscribe from your calls, emails, & text several times. Even called HQ. Still getting calls. If you can’t respect my privacy, why should I trust @theJagmeetSingh to be PM. #ElectionsCanada

A kid from Congo, becoming an NBA Champion is sureal. I was not supposed to be here but I never lost faith. This is a dream come true but also an opportunity for me to remind every kid in Congo, in Africa and everywhere that anything is possible. Thank you Toronto and Canada 🇨🇦

Something pretty awesome happened this week @BLGlaw. I got to share a stage with @louise_arbour to talk about business and human rights. Colleagues from the firm, industry, and the UK shared insights about where this evolving field is headed. #bizhumanrights

Kenyan #LGBT writer and activist #BinyavangaWainaina dies, only two days before Kenya's high court issues rules on the country's anti-sodomy law. Regardless of what happens, let us follow his example and continue the struggle towards freedom and dignity. bbc.com/news/world-afr…
