Whatever anyone thinks of the mayor or her policies, this is why representation matters

A parent sent us a photo of their child's incredible Halloween costume earlier in the week. So it was an honour to host them today at the mayor's office! Love the look.

"His decision not to run again deserves respect." Messages of gratitude and support for US President Joe Biden are pouring in after his stunning announcement that he's exiting the 2024 presidential race. Here's the latest on how world leaders are reacting Biden's decision.

Reminder that entire Canadian elections can be fought in 36 days, and even then many voters don't pay attention until the last week. The U.S. marathon cycle is an international outlier but even within it there is lots of time for shifts.


A well-deserved honour for a top notch team. Congrats Starwhal crew!!

Recieving a @Michener_Journo is an honour of a lifetime. Congratulations to my colleagues at the @TorontoStar and @thenarwhalca!
