The guess two territories are provinces now? Same mistake is in the French list for Canada's investment summit attendees. Premier Simpson listed as representing "Government of the Northwest Territories"

Thinking of everyone who’s going to lose their jobs because of this. I spent six years at Global Regina and worked with many stellar, talented people who poured their hearts into the morning show — too many to list in a tweet. This just sucks

Correction - I thought this was the contractor but it is an @airtransat email. Is it company policy to ask random traveller’s to handle each other’s baggage to cover for your errors?
Hi @airtransat, why are we being asked by your contractor to be a courier service on our vacation? We already located our bag on a different continent when you shipped it there and now are being asked to handle another person’s bag from Galway to Dublin.

Hi @airtransat is this a black bag? I reported a black bag that didn’t make it from Toronto to Dublin on July 12. This pink bag was sent to my current location in Galway late yesterday. Where is my bag and why was my name slapped on a bag that belongs to Sophia Johnson?

I’m not able to call due to travel. We have gotten in touch with Sophia and she is in the Dominican Republic, as is our bag. There is an AirTag in her bag and while she’s been trying to tell Air Transat it shows her bag is Ireland your airline insisted it was delivered.

Me to most people: Ottawa is way better than you think, you just gotta dive in a little bit! Ottawa mayor: look upon this apocalyptic wasteland, and witness the field of sadness and decay over which I rule.
Good morning Ottawa. Bonjour Ottawa.

Reached out to a few MPs, no response at this point
So... are we going to hear 'inside Liberals sources,' 'unamed MPs,' and 'senior officials' talking to the press gallery about the drama in the Liberal caucus? Fair coverage anyone?

Terrific work from @judyatrinh in getting this. The silence at the end speaks volumes
OpenAI’s head of policy Chan Park met with AI Minister Evan Solomon today. The U.S. tech company did not flag concerns about the Tumbler Ridge Shooter until after the killing spree. I asked Park repeatedly if he has a message for victims. Here’s what happened.

A group of Canadian academics is calling on the federal government to speed up approvals of student visas for Palestinians after two students who were accepted at a Canadian university died before they could leave the region. From @davidbaxter_ theglobeandmail.com/canada/a…

Congrats on an amazing career Murray, and the legislature and Sask news landscape will be an emptier place without you. Thank you for being a mentor and a friend to so many reporters who made there way through the Sask Press Gallery.
