The vicious, unjustified beating of Tyre Nichols and his ultimate death at the hands of five Memphis police officers is just the latest, painful reminder of how far America still has to go in fixing how we police our streets.

Most of Canada’s nuclear waste is in Ontario, kept in above-ground storage facilities. In 2007, the Government of Canada chose Adaptive Phased Management for the long-term management of used nuclear fuel underground.

Greta Thunberg is 19 years old and single-handedly humiliated 36-year-old Andrew Tate, who is now arrested for human trafficking in Romania after trying to “clap back” at Greta. Never mess with Greta. An absolute legend and icon. The best of Gen Z.

Spread the word! Starting Jan. 1, Ontarians will be able to visit pharmacies across the province to receive treatment for common ailments at no cost.
Expanding the ability of pharmacists to provide care is one way we’re making it more convenient to access care in the community.

We mourn with the family, friends & colleagues of OPP Constable Grzegorz Pierzchala, killed in the line of duty.
Those who work in law enforcement put their lives on the line every single day to keep us & our communities safe. We must never ever take that for granted.

It is with an extremely heavy heart that I regretfully advise that #OPP Provincial Constable Grzegorz Pierzchala was killed today while courageously serving in the line of duty. Our hearts are with his loved ones and all OPP members at this tragic time. #HeroesInLife
