He can lead. He can build bridges for new partnerships.

All Canadians are going to have to tighten our skates and get at it together.

🇨🇦 Retail blackout: Feb 28 🚨 The CanuckYou.ca list currently features US brands to *avoid*. Maybe that's not the nicest way to promote Canadian, but we're all past the point of being nice.

@nealasher.bsky.social Rarely do I find an author that has me totally enthralled 😳 with his writing but you sir have captured my imagination now for several months. In my view you rate up there with some of our greatest scifi authors of all time. Thank you.

As a survivor of AIDS for 25 years, my experience is amoung the shortest of the champions I now consider friends, some who have been living with HIV for 40+ years. While no longer a life threatening illness, it can have a significant impact on daily living. #aids #worldaidsday #longtermsurvivor
