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.

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. hbr.org/2023/06/women-in-lea…

"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. toronto.citynews.ca/2023/05/…

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?") thenarwhal.ca/ontario-greenb…

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.

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.

Your periodic reminder that charity will never solve what public policy was meant to address. The generosity of strangers is not a substitute for good public policy.

This is year three of the healthcare crisis. There are not enough healthcare staff and those left are burned out and working sick often. What is the game plan? We can't expect these people to prop up the system forever at the expense of their own mental and physical health.
