I want to know whatโ€™s going on in America. They want to make us the 51st State! We should know the dangers of voting in the Right. I know that hearing about the US from the CBC, Iโ€™m hearing the unbiased truth.

Jane Goodall was my first childhood hero, as I loved animals as a kid and was inspired by her story. I still remember the National Geographic specials about her. RIP.

Amazing woman. Watched her doc, everything on her. โค๏ธ

RIL, Ms. Jane Goodall. You've been a huge example of love her animals, we could only wish to be as good as you.

Thank you for all you did to teach us, to be better.

Sending my deepest sympathies to her family & friends.

Never forgotten!

A disgrace. Iโ€™m afraid itโ€™s like this all over the Western World. Until these important jobs are paid what they are worth and the facilities are staffed they way they should be, things will not change. My husband was in a care home for 14 yrs.

More pointedly, the pope said, "Someone who says, I'm against abortion, but is in favor of the death penalty is not really pro-life. Someone who says, I'm against abortion but I'm in agreement with the inhuman treatment of immigrants in the United States, I don't know if that's pro-life."

What a line from the Pope! I am so pleased he is carrying on Pope Francisโ€™ advocacy for immigrants.

Congrats to team Europe for winning the Ryder Cup. Historic and well deserved.

Our fans were disgraceful. An embarrassment to the US team and the game of golf.

No class, dignity or graceโ€ฆjust like their cult leader in the White House.

You can be mad at Jim Comey for what he did to HRC in 2016 and also decry any potential indictment as bullshit. You can do both.

It's weird how Tylenol caused autism (first diagnosed in 1943) before it was even invented (1955). What a clever drug.
