Part 2 of 2: His last wish is to attend the Blue Jays’ game in Dunedin on March 10. His parents quit work to be at his side and have no income. They’re solely responsible for financing the trip. If you are able to assist, know they are grateful. gofund.me/d3a48cb1d

What an absolute disgrace that so many woke activists & authorities used Remembrance Day to push their divisive and radical causes, denigrating our history and the brave military members who sacrificed for it. We are a proud country with a proud history, and everyone who lives here should be grateful to call Canada home.

Wouldn’t it be something if this Heritage Minute went viral after it was deleted because woke teachers wanted to erase Sir John A.

Thanks @davidbratzer for having the courage to share your PTSD story. Too many suffer in silence & your story will inspire many to seek help & know they’re not alone. It’s OK to say you’re not OK.

Dear @GuinnessIreland, Sweet tears of bliss fell as I tasted Guinness 0.0 in Dublin recently. Please bring this exquisite product to Canada. If you do, I will use it in place of water. I will use it to shave. I will add it to soups and sauces. #guinness

Driver who purposely targeted & "mowed down" our ⁦officer gets light 3 yr sentence. Our hope is that this gives some closure to our amazing member Cst Todd Mason & his family who will forever be effected by this senseless assault focused on police. timescolonist.com/local-news…
