Black-and-white photograph of Jack Nesbit and Jim Egan sitting side by side on a couch in a living room. Jack Nesbit, on the left, wears a plaid shirt and light-colored jeans with a belt and rests his left arm along the back of the couch while holding a small dark dog on his lap. Jim Egan, on the right, wears a light sweater and dark pants and holds a small light-colored dog against his chest, with another small dark dog resting across his lap. Both men face the camera. Shelving, plants, and household furnishings are visible in the background.
On this day in 2000, Jim Egan died. His court challenge, Egan v. Canada, led the Supreme Court to rule sexual orientation is a protected ground of discrimination in the Charter of Rights and Freedoms.

Having grown up during Vietnam, it is unlikely that I will ever fully trust them. Theyโve done precious little to earn it.

Out of curiosity: If they must do time change, why donโt they do it on a Saturday? At least give folk a couple nightโs sleep to catch up. Stay safe out there, everyone.
