Just booked the final three nights of my vacation in Quebec this summer. Looking forward to supporting my friends in Canada and spending more time in your great country. I apologize in advance for my wretched French.

Le service offert dans les dernières semaines n’était pas à la hauteur de nos standards. Ainsi, dès le lundi 24 février prochain, des mesures affectant les horaires et la tarification seront mises en place afin de vous offrir davantage de prévisibilité pour organiser vos déplacements.
👉Le REM sera offert gratuitement la semaine du 24 au 28 février, grâce à une entente entre CDPQ Infra et l’ARTM. Les navettes seront maintenues, en pointe et hors pointe, et seront aussi offertes gratuitement. La gratuité sera revue sur une base hebdomadaire en fonction du progrès des travaux.
⚠️ L’accès sans titre de transport concerne spécifiquement l’accès au REM et aux navettes spéciales 720,721,722 et 568. Les autres services de transport collectifs vous permettant d’accéder aux navettes ainsi qu’au REM conserveront leur tarification habituelle.
👉Le REM offrira un service seulement pendant les heures de pointe du matin (5h30 à 10 h) et du soir (15 h à 20 h). Les passages se feront toutes les 10 minutes pendant ces plages horaires. À l'extérieur de ces heures, le réseau sera fermé. Des navettes permettront d’assurer le service hors pointe. Ceci permettra à nos équipes procéder à de la maintenance accrue sur les voitures et le réseau.
👉 Des équipes seront déployées en plus grand nombre dans le réseau et dans les trains afin de vous accompagner pendant cette période d’instabilité. Leur présence vise à améliorer nos communications avec les usagères et usagers et à offrir une prise en charge rapide sur le terrain en cas de problème sur le réseau.
🚆 Soyez assurés que nous travaillons d’arrache-pied afin de vous offrir la qualité de service qui est attendue. Pour en savoir plus sur les mesures en place: rem.info/fr/actualites/servi…

I think of fishing on a lake with my Grandpa, showing my kids the mountains for the first time, and the community of Ajax I’m lucky to represent.
When I see our flag, I see the people and stories that make us who we are - the true north, strong and free. 🇨🇦 (3/3)

Canada’s fight back has to go beyond tariffs and trade. It has to include the global implications of the attacks on democracy, development, and human rights, as well as tactics and strategies that rely on bullying, hatred, and the obliteration of international law. We are in the fight of our lives.

I don't say this often, but Sunday is looking like one of those 'DO NOT TRAVEL UNLESS IT'S AN EMERGENCY' days. Near blizzard conditions across southern Ontario and Quebec. Even the risk of ice pellets and freezing rain near Lake Erie and Ontario.
The changes in the US are deeply troubling, particularly the dismantling of USAID. Looking for something positive to do in response, I am making a monthly donation to CECI (Centre d’étude et de coopération internationale). Some of their projects in Africa are threatened.

Katie is in Kenya for a month, volunteering with Farmers Helping Farmers. Today she visited Kiirua Primary School. There are 220 students from Grades 1-9. Ten percent of those students are HIV+.

In 2012, when I was the US ambassador to Russia, Putin shut down USAID inside Russia. Why? Because their work supported free markets, democracy, human rights —ie causes that threatened Putins dictatorship. Shutting down USAID is exactly what autocrats all over the world want.

Quebec's province-run liquor stores will stop selling US products as of Tuesday, the finance minister announces.
En réaction aux tarifs décrétés par l’administration Trump, nous avons demandé à la @LaSAQ_officiel de retirer les produits américains de ses tablettes.
D’autres mesures suivront. Nous protégerons notre économie, nos entreprises et nos citoyens. quebec.ca/nouvelles/actualit…

Aside from the general issues about Trump‘s tariff and his economic nationalism strategy, today’s actions against Canada and Mexico are inexplicable and dangerous. 1/8

Mr. President: Instead of stealing Greenland from Denmark, I have a better idea.
In Denmark, everyone is guaranteed health care, college education is free, parents receive 1-year of paid paternity leave & workers don’t make less than $22 an hour.
Let's steal those ideas.

Honoured for the recognition from my peers with this @cjffjc tribute. I really can’t quite believe they’ve chosen me for this - brings a lot of memories to the forefront, a lifetime spent in journalism, in writing, fighting for every last word, every image, both inside newsrooms and out, in a country, a world, whose battered hearts and minds I still hope will, one day, see a better path forward. Grateful to my newsrooms @TorontoStar @globeandmail
TORONTO, January 28, 2025 /CNW/ - The Canadian Journalism Foundation (CJF) is proud to announce that award-winning journalist, author and filmmaker @TanyaTalaga will receive its prestigious CJF Tribute at the annual #CJFAwards.

Call Of The Wilde for @Global_Montreal is another strong effort by the Canadiens vs Dallas led by Lane Hutson.
One strong team after another and the Habs are not overmatched, even taking on the Wilde Goat schedule maker.
Also, thoughts on the Rocket.

Have been a fan of Chrétien since the Iraq war decision - this is a great piece and very timely too!
Extraordinary, and timely, intervention.
