This is devastating...women’s representation at #COP27 is practically nonexistent.
Women bear the brunt of #ClimateChange disasters. It is hugely irresponsible to convene talks without more of us present.

A reflection on the global struggle against the rising tide of #authoritarianism: the last gasp of #PhilippineDemocracy. With thanks to Miguel Syjuco, author of the extraordinary satirical novel, I Was the President’s Mistress!! #elections #scandals theglobeandmail.com/opinion/…

It's weird that people who are opposed to authoritarian governments support Russia.

Thank you to the 90+ percent of truckers who are vaccinated and do us all a great service. The others are an indignity to themselves and a public health hazard for the rest of us.

32% may not sound like something to celebrate, but when I started @InformedOps in 2009, women were quoted less than a quarter of the time by influential #cdnmedia. Today's Gender Gap Tracker shows a 5-pt increase over 3 yrs ago at launch. Details here: bit.ly/3FpsWck
