Thank you to the FIFA administration for suddenly this morning delivering what was owed to our players and coaching staff, for the Jordan National team’s accession to the final of the FIFA Arab Cup in Qatar last December.
This was funding that should have been received 8 months ago.
While this is a good development for our players, it does not change the serious concerns we in the football world have regarding the FIFA leadership, nor does it change what our FAs have been subjected to in the past.
It is symptomatic of those exact difficulties that we all face, and that are usually linked to the FIFA presidential elections. And it does not change my clear position concerning the leadership of FIFA: my FA and I will not endorse president Infantino, nor will we vote for him.

Introducing Willow, our new state-of-the-art quantum computing chip with a breakthrough that can reduce errors exponentially as we scale up using more qubits, cracking a 30-year challenge in the field. In benchmark tests, Willow solved a standard computation in <5 mins that would take a leading supercomputer over 10^25 years, far beyond the age of the universe(!).

I was just at a vigil at Toronto city hall to honour and remember the lives lost in Palestine, and to demand justice. During mid-interview with @AndrewCP24, the cameraman stopped filming and walked away and just left entirely. Andrew apologized to me and said this has never happened before in his entire career. I was simply sharing what I witnessed as a healthcare worker on the ground in Gaza in February this year. In Canada, journalists don’t want to cover or even hear the truth it seems.

Trudeau is trying to crush free speech in Canada. Shameful.
The Canadian government, armed with one of the world's most repressive online censorship schemes, announces that all "online streaming services that offer podcasts" must formally register with the government to permit regulatory controls:

At 100 years old, Hazel McCallion got the vaccine. 👏👏
Listen to what the legend herself has to say about her experience getting vaccinated and why it's so important for everyone to get the vaccine when it's their turn.

40 years ago today, at St. John's harbour, a young man started a movement in our country that has inspired hope for millions.
Today is the 40th anniversary of Terry Fox's Marathon of Hope.
In times like these, let us remember what hope can accomplish.
Thank you Terry.

This was Mark McMorris 11 months ago.
He’s a bronze medallist at the #Olympics today.
Remarkable.
