Counting down to my trip from Canada to Cornwall, England. Starting off New Year’s Day aboard @GWRHelp from Paddington to Penzance. Found this signed 1934 Great Western Railway book promoting Cornwall tourism in a small Brockville, Ontario 🇨🇦 bookstore. #UKhistory #Kernow – at Penzance, England
Do you ever feel this on a cruise/train/plane?13 hour train journey from Toronto Union Station to New York Penn Station. As I lie still in bed, I could swear my body is still moving on the train 😂 #HowWeirdIsThat
On my @Amtrak train to NYC, business class has no assigned seating. We had to disembark at Niagara Falls to clear US Customs. As an adult, it’s still totally normal to shout “SAME SEATS” as we re-board the train… right? 😃 #AdultingAndStuff #GenealogyRoadTrip

A truly incredible morning at the @HaltonWomensPl Hope in High Heels Walk 2022. So good to see everyone in person for this important day. Thanks for joining us @AnitaAnandMP @karinagould @MariannMeedWard @HaltonPolice and more! We must end violence against women - together!

No one deserves to be verbally abused the way @cafreeland was in Alberta. I am disgusted by the behaviour and language used by those who stalked her and shouted profanities. This behaviour has no place in our country. We can disagree on policy without being disagreeable.

What happened to #LisaLaFlamme is ridiculous.
PMJT should make her Lieutenant Governor of Ontario, though, now that she’s regrettably available.

.@althiaraj @spaikin Can you please ask @fordnation why he’s appealing to Supreme Court (using taxpayers’ $) to prevent release of his government’s mandate letters Ontarians deserve to read these, especially before voting in election. Thanks. #OnPoli #ONelxn #OntarioVotes – at Toronto, Ontario

Fully support this! Thanks @PaulSharman1
I asked the City Solicitor to prepare a report to Council on legal costs of all appeals (LPAT/OLT) that have been settled or awarded this term. I want Council to make the decision to "waive privilege" & make the information public as we have in the past e.g. the pier #Burlon

Here ya go. Let's talk about it. 😉
Why is no one talking about being able to find the genetic ancestries of your grandparents if you have had your parents tested? This is by FAR the best feature of the new #AncestryDNA “ethnicities”!
