I met Stocky Edwards in 2019 for a story about the 75th anniversary of D Day. He remembered it like it was yesterday. He told me a guardian angel watched over him while flying. Said his cockpit felt like a holy place. Farewell and blue skies, Stocky. globalnews.ca/news/5352938/a…

To combat the coronavirus, we need a unified message from coast to coast

Enough of this nonsense of every jurisdiction having different messages. It’s essential that public health officials and politicians speak with a unified voice and adopt consistent, coherent policies

Only 24% of the persons heard, read about or seen in 📰, 📻 & 📺 news are women. This gender-imbalanced picture of society reinforces & perpetuates harmful gender stereotypes. The media must change how it reflects the world! unwo.men/2AKx50yzmRy #GenerationEquality
