Here’s a story I wrote for @TheKit about drinking and new guidelines in Canada. Cheers! thekit.ca/living/health/new-…

So, Who’s Taking the New Alcohol Guidelines to Heart?

Are you more “good riddance” or “rip the merlot from my cold, dead hands”?

I really wish people would stop drastically using the scenarios of rape or incest as the sole premise for an abortion. A woman doesn’t have to be in a traumatic situation for it to be reason enough. In fact there is zero explanation that needs to be given.

Saddened by the passing of legendary director and proud Canadian, Ivan Reitman. I had the honour of interviewing him and his son Jason a few years ago. Mr Reitman was beyond charming and offered great insight into what makes great comedy. #RIP #IvanReitman cbc.ca/news/entertainment/iv…
