Our Easter candy has arrived! Not only is it a way to support a Canadian, family-owned business, but it is exceptionally good chocolate.

I promise, we’ll be good and we will wait!

Thank you to Nova Scotia’s own @peacebychocolate.bsky.social !

Worthwile use of 10 minutes of your time. Kudos to CBC’s Andrew Chang for doing the work I’ve not seen from any of the US broadcast finance reporters. www.cbc.ca/player/play/...

I never thought I’d see the day when a Russian asset would be elected US President and destroy our most cherished relationship with our beloved neighbors to the North.

Wow - this is is a massive shift in the Canadian electorate. (For those who don’t know, red = Liberal Party; blue = Conservatives). To paraphrase Leader Mark Carney, looks like Canadians want someone who will stand up to Trump and not kneel before him.

In the words of a great Canadian artist

Don’t it always seems to go
You don’t know what you got til it’s gone

The world is grateful for your leadership. Thank you, #JustinTrudeau

We support and value our friends and neighbors in Canada. Side note: flag bought from a Canadian store and *not* from Amazon. #ElbowsUp

All I care about is hearing & seeing Kendrick & SZA. NFL is performative when it comes to fighting racism and I have no interest in the 🍊🤡.

Clean Slate review – Laverne Cox’s comedy is so darn lovable it’s impossible to resist Cox and co-star George Wallace have wonderful chemistry as a trans woman and her dad in this warm sitcom. It’s sweet, cosy and very funny

It’s like a plate of Harry’s wings (IYKYK). You will want to binge this series on Prime Video.

Robin Williams quote on Canada: “You are a big country. You are the kindest country in the world. You are like a really nice apartment over a meth lab.”

I’ve worked with these two incredible music supervisors for nearly 10 years - since our days on “The Get Down.” I love them as professionals & friends.
