Pope Leo at Sagrada Familia: “We cannot believe in Jesus and make war. We cannot believe in Jesus and kill the innocent. We cannot believe in Jesus and abandon those who suffer, those who weep, those who flee from misery.”

Please consider getting a library card, even if you don’t use it much. Cities look at those numbers, and they help keep libraries open, funded properly, and safe from budget cuts.

Charlie Angus: There was a group of young Normandy students, and two young teenage girls read a poem in French to the commemoration ceremonies and to the immense field of the dead. And she said, "We are the children that you never had. We are the children of liberty." And there wasn't a dry eye in the house, but I always remember because Charles Scott Brown, in his 90s, stood up. And he broke protocol, of course, and he said to those young girls, "Don't cry for any man in this field. They came to free you, and they would do it again if they were asked." That's what we come from. That is [Canada's] legacy. Do you think that we're going to let the likes of Pete Hoekstra push us around, or Donald Trump and his predator government threaten us? That's what we represent.

82 years ago today. Canada lands on Juno Beach. #DDay 🇨🇦

Veteran news anchor Jon Snow has shared that he’s living with dementia, speaking publicly for the first time to raise awareness of a condition affecting around 1 million people across the UK. Jon and his wife, neurologist Dr Precious Lunga, are supporting Alzheimer’s Society @alzheimerssoc and shared the story of Jon’s diagnosis in @DailyMail as part of our Defeating Dementia campaign with the newspaper. dailymail.com/tvshowbiz/arti… We’ve partnered with Jon, in association with @Channel4, on a powerful new documentary airing on 20 June. Jon Snow: A Last Big Story looks at how he’s navigating life with dementia, and how, when we all come together, we can change the story. Thank you to Jon and Precious for their courage and openness to bring much-needed attention to dementia 💙 @jonsnowC4 Photo credit: Cynthia R Matonhodze

Canada is hosting the World Cup for the first time. It's a country traditionally associated with ice hockey but more recently there's been a shift in its sporting culture. Al Jazeera’s Ian Wood reports from Toronto, Canada.

Caroline Mulroney resigns. Poilievre reaches for bottle of Tums.

In case anyone wondered what Montreal looks and sounds like when the Habs head to a conference final

Thanks to @YourMorning for interviewing @SaskiaSiva of The Brainwell Institute this morning on recent approvals for new #dementia treatments in Canada.

Who wants to be my boss? @CBCNews is hiring a Senior Producer of health, climate, and science. It's a role that requires medical/science savvy and, ideally, an understanding of the unique demands of a (very) multiplatform newsroom. Deadline is May 21: cbcrc.wd3.myworkdayjobs.com/…

Thanks to our friend @halanderson at @680CJOB for talking to @SaskiaSiva of The Brainwell Institute about the struggles facing caregivers as they deal with loved ones living with #dementia. #gratitude

This time last year, Sudarshan Yellamaraju was on the Korn Ferry Tour. Now, he's 30th in the FedEx Cup standings and is doing a pre-tournament press conference at a signature event on the PGA Tour! Awesome to see hard work paying off for the young Canadian!

I am truly fatigued by this negative line of dreck about Canada. Yes, we have challenges, more at the moment than usual. But this is a tremendous country, and yes we have a Canadian Dream, the belief that people can come together to build better lives, and in doing so build a better country: fair, decent, and diverse.

The sound of church bells echoing across Beirut this morning. Wishing everyone celebrating a peaceful and joyful #Easter. Le son des cloches d’église résonne à travers Beyrouth ce matin. Joyeuses et paisibles Pâques à toutes celles et tous ceux qui célèbrent. 🕊️

Another deadly weekend in Lebanon, with journalists, healthcare workers and a UN peacekeeper killed. Civilians, media, medical personnel and UN peacekeepers must be protected. International humanitarian law must be respected.

Update on Flight Attendant… She was sitting in her jump seat directly behind the cockpit when Air Canada Express Flight 8646 collided with a fire truck on Runway 4 at LaGuardia Airport. On impact, Solange Tremblay, the senior flight attendant on board, was ejected more than 320 feet from the wreckage. She was found on the tarmac, still strapped to her seat. She was conscious for all of it. Her daughter Sarah Lépine called it "a total miracle." Aviation safety experts agreed, saying her survival was extraordinary given the complete destruction of the cockpit just feet from where she was sitting. Her four-point harness jump seat, designed to withstand extreme crash loads, likely saved her life. But Solange's fight is far from over. Her injuries are severe: two shattered legs with open fractures requiring multiple surgeries and metal plates, a fractured spine, skin grafts needed for the flesh she lost sliding across the tarmac, and complications that led to a blood transfusion. She still faces several more surgeries and intensive rehabilitation to learn how to walk again. Her daughter and cousin have set up a GoFundMe to help the family. The funds will allow Sarah and Solange's husband Denis to take time off work to be by her side as she recovers in a New York hospital for the foreseeable future. "My mother dedicated her entire life as a flight attendant and was very proud of her work," Sarah wrote. "Right now, my mom needs your help.”

Let’s be precise. Millions of Canadians are not paid 12 million dollars a year to lead a company that is legally bound by the Official Languages Act. That standard exists for a reason. It comes with the job. It is not optional. Framing this as a struggle of “ordinary Canadians versus elites” is simply not grounded in reality. In Ottawa, the vast majority of deputy ministers are Anglophone. In cabinet, francophone ministers have often presented in English. I do not recall many, if any, Anglophone ministers presenting in French. The imbalance you are pointing to is not where you suggest it is. This is not about sidelining anyone. It is about leadership and responsibility. Mr. Rousseau has lived in Quebec for two decades. His spouse is francophone. He leads a national carrier subject to federal law. He publicly committed years ago to learning French. After hundreds of hours of tutoring, in a moment that required dignity and respect, he could not deliver even a few sentences in the language of one of the victims and their family. That is not about control. That is about priority. And let’s be honest about the lived reality of this country. Francophones who move into majority Anglophone environments adapt quickly because they must. They do not have the luxury of opting out. That expectation has never been controversial. Yet when the expectation is reversed at the highest levels of leadership, it suddenly becomes a debate about fairness. It is not. Canada made a foundational choice. Two official languages. Not one and a half. Not when convenient. Not when it is easy. In moments of tragedy, language is not a technicality. It is how you show respect. It is how you honour people. It is how you lead. Reducing this to a question of control or elite pressure misses the point entirely and risks turning a matter of basic respect into an unnecessary division.
