Looking good J-F!! @ProvenceMarina
Why settle for a rose when you can go full French and rock a sprig of lavender between your lips? 🪻 Très chic, non? #lavender #frenchrestaurant #vancouverchefs #cheflife #kitchenlife #behindthescenes

It's just endless! Since the 90's the gutting of broadcast journalism never let's up.
Damn. :(

Do religious monuments like the Ten Commandments belong in public parks? @charlesadler and I disagree: rtrj.info/070824Ten #RealTalkRJ

Is the track up to standards since your post last week? Or do we risk potential injury to an Olympian weeks out from @parisolympicss?
The eve of the Canadian Olympic and Paralympic track and field trials. Five days of competition begins here in Montreal tomorrow. Our @cbcsports team will have extensive coverage each day, including @anastasure and I providing daily recaps from the event.

Another fabulous, unforgettable Stanley Cup Final elimination game win for the Edmonton Oilers. How many buildings, cars, etc. will be painted ‘We Believe!’ to greet the Oilers for Game 6 at home Friday? One thing I believe — Connor McDavid, win or lose, just won the Conn Smythe.

On the eve of arguably their heaviest traffic because of the Stanley Cup final. Probably not a coincidence.

Welcome to Downtown Canada...Sadly.
Two crimes within one hour today on a single block in Old Montreal: A snatch-and-run theft from a store & a violent theft on the sidewalk from a visiting couple. Stay alert if visiting this busy tourist area. 🚨

That happened at another bar when I was in Toronto. I reacted the same way. The bar lasted less than a year. I never wondered why
Went to 1608 bar at @FairmontFronten a few mins. after it opened. Waited almost 5 mins. for a hostess to acknowledge me…only to be told I could put my name on a wait list. A wait list? The bar is empty. “We just opened so we can’t seat everyone at the same time.” Walked out.

Happened to me too and 4 days later I was on the beach in Puerto Vallarta thanks to good friends. The smartest thing I did after getting kicked to the curb.

You're the consumate pro @FarhanLaljiTSN Congratulations on 25 years!
25 years ago yesterday I started at @TSN_Sports. It’s been a minute. So many great memories. I’m not done yet (I hope). How did I commemorate the occasion? At an airport😂
