I'd like to thank and praise all the fast food employees who were inundated with customers this weekend due to power outages! I know some people were rude and impatient! Hang in there! You're doing your best in trying circumstances!

For almost 20 years I've barbecued hamburgers to celebrate my sister in-law's December birthday, in nice weather or a heavy snowfall. It's become a family tradition and a fun memory!
Today is that day! Have to shovel the deck first 😊!

Maybe
@JustinTrudeau
should bypass the provincial government and give healthcare funding directly to Hospitals. For staffing, more beds, equipment etc. If everyone thinks Trudeau should handout more money, then perhaps he should hand it to those who’ll use it for healthcare.
Thank you for all the well-wishes yesterday! Been dealing with fever/chills, runny nose, stuffed head, no energy, etc. Slowly on the mend! Thanks, again!! Cheers ☕!
Good Thursday Morning Everyone! My participation on Twitter and other social media platforms will be limited for the next while. A situation of a personal nature has come up and must be addressed accordingly. My energy and support is needed elsewhere at this time. Thank you.

Back in the 1970s I was a gas jockey at a local station. I opened the place each Sunday at 7AM. The sex workers would saunter in to use the washroom, clean themselves up, have a coffee, and restart their day. All were polite and thankful. I never told the boss about this ritual.

You know, I see all this money spent on travel costs, signs, posters, flags, etc demeaning the PM and 🇨🇦 democracy. Imagine how this money could be better spent helping the poor/homeless!

Spoke to my 92 year old mum-inlaw on the phone Halloween evening. She was looking out her window and commenting about how dark it was outside. "Mum, winter is coming. It gets dark sooner" I explained. "They need to turn the power back on" she countered. I love her ❤.

Dear Mr. Trudeau,
It has come to our attention that Premier Doug Ford has had contact and possible financial dealings with Russian oligarchs despite our federal government's stand on the Russian invasion of Ukraine and subsequent sanctions ...
