Superb piece here by @StephenMarche. Should be read by every leader in cultural industries of Canada as well as whoever becomes prime minister after April 28th. "Celebrate Canada or lose it."
He is also bang on about the CBC. Don't defund it. Reform it.

If the PM really wants to rebuild his standing in polls and Canada’s in the world, he would be announcing a 2% defence spending plan & timeline at NATO this week. #NATOSummit#Leadership

Excellent statement by Brian Burke. The NHL is shattering trust with this cowardly decision. Will @MLSEPR and powerful owners of @MapleLeafs speak out or challenge?
This decision has stripped clubs of a powerful community outreach tool and removed meaningful support for Special Initiatives, all to protect a select few who do not want to answer any questions about their choices. I hope the NHL reconsiders in order to remain a leader in DEI.
ALT I am deeply disappointed in the NHL’s decision to ban on-ice support for community causes.
The NHL has been an enthusiastic, invaluable supporter of a number of important causes and groups – to name just a few; Indigenous peoples, first responders, military heroes, cancer survivors, women in hockey, victims of civic disasters, people of color, and, of course, the LGBTQ community. This new league policy strips clubs and players of one of the most important and visible ways of supporting causes they care about. Let’s be clear: this is not inclusion or progress. This decision does not grow the game, and does not make our fans feel welcome. Fans look to teams and the league to show they are welcome, and this directive closes a door that’s been open for the last decade. We will not lose the incredible progress we’ve made in inclusion over the last decade, and we are counting on the League for continued support and leadership in this area.

The appalling and unceasing abrupt cancellation of flights for many months by @AirCanada requires immediate investigation by Ottawa @telfordk We cannot grant a near monopoly and then allow it undermine families and prosperity. #cdnpoli#competition
It’s worth noting in the Bill C-18 battle that Facebook/Meta has never exceeded 25% trust of Canadians in our annual #CanTrustIndex and often sits closer to 20%. Hard to win with no reserve of goodwill. #cdnpoli
The @NCC_CNC has made a deal to buy Batchewana Island in Lake Superior north of Sault Ste. Marie to protect it from development. northernontario.ctvnews.ca/c…
