A warning to all of the NDP - if you govern from the centre and not as Democratic Socialists - you risk this. The Bob Rae curse.

This is amazing. The single most comprehensive register of investors, profiteers and legacies left by those that took part in Britains enslavement of African people. The level of research that must have gone into this is mind blowing.

Roberto Clemente wasn’t just a hero to Puerto Rico but to all of us. He spoke on behalf of Latin American players and of people. He was the light at the end of the tunnel for all of us, and I’m here because of him.
We should all understand that baseball goes beyond the sport we play.

George Chuvalo might be the toughest man I have ever seen.
Not just going toe to toe with Ali or Frazier. Not just that he never went down in 93 fights.
He lost 3 sons and his first wife to drugs and suicide…and still found a way to keep fighting.
Then for years he tried hard to help others avoid the same fate.
Something I will always admire.
May he now find his peace. 🕊️
