BANNER weekend all around for #TeamCanada athletes 🤩 — from the World Athletics Championships in Budapest, to the FIBA World Cup in Jakarta, to the Canoe Sprint World Championships in Duisburg 👏 Here’s what happened👇 olympic.ca/2023/08/28/wee…
Lisa LaFlamme wasn’t put forward for a Canadian Screen Award after her controversial CTV exit — so she did it herself.
“1/10 people in the world are going hungry and workers around the world are living in countries where inflation is rising faster than wages. A simple solution? Tax the ultra rich.” 👀 Watch as our ED @LaurenRavon discusses #TheSurvivalOfTheRichest w/@LoisLeeTV on @CTVNews
Recent national anchor departures: 2011 - Lloyd Robertson retires as CTV anchor at age 77 2017- Peter Mansbridge retires as CBC anchor at age 69 2022- Lisa LaFlamme contract cancelled by CTV at age 58.
For those feeling hopeless about Afghanistan, here's what you can do right now to help: There's a kickass network of local Afghan women's organizations who've built a country-wide escape & support network for women's rights activists facing targeted assassination by the Taliban
The international community has a moral obligation to the Afghan people who have risked their lives in pursuit of peace, development and #HumanRights. We cannot afford to let another day or another hour pass without bold and rapid action. #PeaceForAfghanistan
My in-depth interview with the Afghan girl who’s heartbreaking crying video become symbol of ‘shattered future’ under Taliban She’s only 23 years old, full of pain and anger. Please listen to her and be their voice.
The COVID-19 pandemic has left many people isolated and feeling the effects of loneliness. Especially for seniors, Sharon Butala writes, loneliness is now more widespread than ever. More here: thewalrus.ca/on-aging-alone/ 1/6 #MentalHealth #LonelinessAwarenessWeek
“If the best #G7 leaders can manage is to donate 1 billion vaccine doses then this summit will have been a failure” @Anna_Marriott The world would need 11 billion doses to end the pandemic. theglobeandmail.com/canada/article…
Anthony Bourdain, who died three years ago today, began his writing career in the @NewYorker’s pages. Read his 1999 piece which rocked the entire restaurant industry & later became part of his groundbreaking book “Kitchen Confidential.” #NewYorkerArchive newyorker.com/magazine/1999/…
Beautiful piece by my colleague and friend @SalinaWilson89 I mourn as I watch India from Canada. #COVID19 brings mass cremations with no time to grieve thestar.com/opinion/contri… via @torontostar
There’s no such thing as a former journalist. SO TRUE. "I know many of these “former journalists,” and they have not left their skills and values behind. They use them every day for the public good." via @RoyPeterClark poynter.org/reporting-edit…
21 May 2021: 62 WTO members submit revised proposal on a waiver from certain provisions of the TRIPS Agreement for the Prevention, Containment, and Treatment of COVID-19 #TRIPSWaiver keionline.org/36235
Some profit. Some suffer. Eight out of the nine new pharma billionaires could vaccinate all of India with the combined wealth they have added during the pandemic. @CanadianPM @JustinTrudeau back the #TRIPSWaiver. We need a #PeoplesVaccine. Read on 👉bit.ly/3wk9JEX
Agree 100%!!! Darnella Frazier, who filmed George Floyd’s murder by police, should win a Pulitzer Prize. It would be an unusual prize, and Frazier would be the youngest winner in Pulitzer history. But she should win it. By @RoyPeterClark | nie.mn/3tRUHEM
Such a great piece to do on three men doing the work!
"Last July, alongside other world leaders, @CanadianPM wrote that 'where you live should not determine whether you live,' but that is exactly what is happening." We cannot continue this wait and see approach — and downplay IP as a barrier to supply problems. @CdnPressStyle 👇
MPs from across political spectrum urge feds to support WTO’s COVID-19 vaccine waiver | National Newswatch nationalnewswatch.com/2021/05/07/mps…
And yet former Under Secretary of @uspto Andrei Iancu said on @TheCurrentCBC after @Srayale laid out the financial gains for big pharma this past year that they weren't in it for profit. Care to amend that comment? #PeoplesVaccine
So Moderna and Pfizer would sit out 'the next pandemic', even though they'll already have made more money from their vaccines over 12 months than any medicines in history? *And* Moderna's was 100% publicly funded to start with. Real nice guys. #PeoplesVaccine
Today’s statement by the Government of Canada continues their wait and see approach and downplays IP as a barrier to supply problems. Thus, Canada continues to prioritize profits over public health. #TRIPSwaiver #COVID19vaccines
BREAKING: a step in the right direction, but missing the mark. Canada still stalling on support of @wto #TRIPSwaiver on #COVID19Vaccines. What the world needs is a full backing by Canada to waive IP rights — not just readiness to discuss. 👇 oxfam.ca/news/canada-st…
If we want to get through this pandemic, Canada needs to: ✅ Support a #TRIPSwaiver at the @wto ✅ Push big pharma to give up #COVID19Vaccine patents and IP rights Check out @Srayale’s full interview with @ToddCTV @CTVNews 👉 bit.ly/3utrzEO
Yes they did! How about it #Canada? Care to follow suit and help out? U.S. supports waiving intellectual property rules for #COVID19 vaccines cbc.ca/news/world/us-…
