In the wake of the provincial government’s impending restrictions on new bike lanes, we’ve created a petition telling them to stay in their lane. Sign it now!

More than two thousand of Parks Canada’s familiar historical plaques can be found around the country. But this practice is affected by the complexities of #history and the commitment to commemoration, not celebration. ow.ly/VIQh50TfSPQ

The powerlessness of the Senate guarantees the authority of the elected MPs. Now if you guys would just exercise the powers you already have....
I have always hated the senate as a group of the entitled without a democratic mandate.
But the idea of @charlesadler becoming a senator gives me hope.
I can't wait to see him take his place in the upper chamber.

Yes, lively time, lots of discussion. Beach or Beaches? Still in dispute.
Thank you to everyone who came out to support UTP author Richard White at the launch of his new book The Beaches.
It was a fantastic night!

Comforting as it may be to dismiss name changes as woke or ideological #history, perhaps we could recognize the distinction between historical awareness and the celebration implied in honouring people with place names and monuments.

Looking forward to this chat with @ken
Meanwhile, it says here you should hurry on down to join, ahem, "renowned author Ken McGoogan" and Adventure Canada for an evening of exploration, history, music, and culture. Ken will razzle-dazzle a slideshow and chat with historian Christopher Moore. lnkd.in/eUCuKnND
