Admist the chaos and drama of news, I'm proud to be the first hijab-wearing woman on an official Olympic broadcast in Canada. I am acutely aware that my sisters in France do not have access to sport in the very same country I'm covering. I intend to amplify those stories i'A.
I interviewed Donovan Bailey @donovanbailey on CBC Radio airwaves today and 1996-me (and 2023-me) were delighted! His memoir’s out soon: “Undisputed” 🏃🏿♂️🥇
I listened to Gavin Crawford's (very funny!) podcast about #dementia to prep for hosting Ontario Today on lessons learned by caregivers
"Let's Not Be Kidding" is brilliant. Kudos @cbcpodcasts @TVGavin. And the stories from our callers today - ooph!😢

Data lovers, buckle up. This is the full deep dive results of our audit of every ministry and department in the country. #SecretCanada
Ministries across country fall short on freedom of information obligations, audit finds. The @globeandmail sent requests to 253 departments and ministries, and data show wide variations in responses, by @robyndoolittle @tom_cardoso theglobeandmail.com/canada/a… #SecretCanada

In our research we found that women were told they were too young to lead, too old to lead...and middle age wasn't quite right either. As it turns out no age is the right age to be a woman leader. See my latest @HarvardBiz article for solutions.

"Aquatic programs in jeopardy at 20 schools after TDSB cuts instructors"
I have a revolutionary policy suggestion...No cuts to any school programs that offer physical/mental health support for our kids since we're on the heels of a global pandemic & facing a mental health crisis.
At some point, we need to choose #HealthOverHighways.

A Pulitzer & a Peabody!! What an unbelievable 2 days! This feels like undeniable proof that Indigenous stories matter & that we should support Indigenous people to tell them. We are so grateful to survivors who shared with us & hope this means more people will hear their voices.

Chill out, what ya yellin' for?
Apparently the Greenbelt 🤯🤯🤯
A topless person interrupted @AvrilLavigne at the #Junos to protest development in Ontario's Greenbelt.
What's happening with the Greenbelt you ask? We've got you covered.
(We assume Avril thought "why'd you have to go and make things so complicated?")

State Sen. Nathan Dahm (R-OK) has penned several bills loosening gun restrictions, including the nation’s first anti-red flag law. He thinks these bills protect the Second Amendment – and that they make us safer. We think it's probably one or the other. Watch it on @AppleTVPlus.

It's a good read. So many fine journalists offering sound advice, practical suggestions in conversations with @duncanmccue
Congrats @duncanmccue - it has arrived in Oz! I am thrilled to see contributions from @connie_walker and @waub as well. Looking forward to reading this.

Yes it is officially too late to ask me to speak at your BHM event. Yes I am officially ignoring the email you just sent. No, doubling the speakers fee will not work. Yes you still have to dismantle anti Black racism in your org all year round even if you don’t find a speaker.

I have not seen evidence of the Twitter algorithm more despicably at this moment of learning of @jacindaardern resigning. The rate of propagation of hateful, misogynistic dude bros is on fire. Women will never be welcome in politics if we don’t stand up and stand for one another.

“He was the Sonny to my Cher,” says
@EugeneHaslam about his late friend Archie on @cbcallinaday
He was “a lunatic,” Haslam laughs, “that’s what I liked about him.”
“He lived for the moment… he just LIVED.”
