Another shot of that scene. Impossible to overstate how impressed my Mom was to see me sitting on TV beside Lloyd Robertson at the newsdesk. #RIPLloydRobertson

A screen capture of a scene from the TV show "Corner Gas", in which Brent sits eating a bag of chips, beside renowned news anchor Lloyd Robertson at the CTV Newsdesk.

Sitting at the CTV Newsdesk beside Lloyd Robertson and doing our silly little scene together was one of the finest and most surreal honours of my life. He was our first 'celeb cameo' on Corner Gas, and once he'd done it we were legitimized. Because no one was more legit than him. #RIPLloydRobertson

Not sure if everyone appreciates the difference. Rooftop solar hardwires into your main panel via a dedicated breaker, so it requires a permit, an installer, an electrician, and a utility agreement. Balcony solar just plugs into a wall outlet, sharing an existing circuit with no permits or rewiring.

Television and streaming Ads are a right royal pain and I so appreciate the tech avail now that allows the viewer to just skip past them … but I have to admit I retain a huge soft spot for the house hippo ones 😍🦛

When the House Hippo first appeared on Canadian televisions, it seemed that everyone wanted one to appear in their homes. This commercial became a part of the Canadian cultural landscape and even today, the House Hippo is beloved by Canadians. 🧵 1/10
