Okay, I'm off for four weeks. Amy is gone for two. I hope to post some pics and video from my epic motorbike ride - here and elsewhere. Insta? Tik Tok? Oy. Ya'll take care of yerselves. Look out for each other. Spend your money in Canada. And wave to motorbike rider! We'll wave back!
We're near the ten-year anniversary of this interview, which was viewed as wildly controversial at the time. It led to hit pieces on me from liberal outlets like The New Republic as well as death threats. Now it's seen as conventional wisdom -- but it always was!

Hey all, Happy Friday! This is the last day before I take a few weeks off. Going on a looooong motorcycle ride for the first two weeks. That will begin in the rain tomorrow morning. Yay. Oh, and The Early Edition is on the air. You should listen or watch. www.cbc.ca/player/play/... Weather:
My good friend who I ride often with is the Western Canada rep and many of my friends have made the switch to Stark. The biggest growth is in the enduro/hard enduro scene we are all part of. We had 4 of them out for this ride earlier this spring.
Rode this thing yesterday. Swedish "Stark Future" electric motorcycle. 80hp at about 250 pounds. This is the future.
Good Morning! Sheesh! This is the first chance I've had to say hi. We're already halfway through The Early Edition but still lots of great stuff to come. Including our wake-up song. We've moved it to 7:20. @jmcelroy.bsky.social will be here with Metro Matters at 7:40. Here's your weather:

If you want to know how significant Glen Hansard was in his home country, this is the landing page of RTE - Ireland's National Public Broadcaster.
at a baseball game last night someone came up to me and said during the pandemic they dmed me for advice on whether to travel during a long weekend they said my advice made them fine with going, that they met up with the person they were seeing, and now they're married honestly, highlight of day
Glen Hansard also led the music at Shane MacGowan's funeral in December of 2023. He sang Fairytale of New York with an all-star band while mourners danced.
Now playing "Falling Slowly" on CBC's The Early Edition. Such a tragic loss. I'm gutted.
Oh my god. The BBC is reporting Glen Hansard has died in a motorcycle crash. He was just 56 years old. He was lead singer of the band The Frames, and won an Oscar for best song "Falling Slowly" from the film, "Once" in which he starred alongside Marketa Irglova. Such a tragic loss.
My daughter has been making me Jimothy art and it fills my heart.
Call the neighbours! Wake the kids! The second of our Early Edition Mayoral Forums is on. This time with Rebecca Bligh, Kareen Allam and Colleen Hardwick. @jmcelroy.bsky.social and I will question the candidates live - and then bring you even more on our "This is Vancouver" podcast later today.
Waking you up on The Early Edition this morning with a song by Willow Avalon. "Pink Pocket Pistol." She plays the Hollywood Theatre in Vancouver tonight.
“Today, trucks will roll, cars will cross, and governments will begin collecting tolls. But the bridge will remain a monument to a broken bond that may take decades to fix—and may never be fully repaired.” Well worth reading @davidmoscrop.com’s excellent piece.

Love this Pride Parade poster from 94 in the back hallway at City Hall
@sulliview.bsky.social with a brutal critique of the WHCA dinner debacle & the failing coverage of Trump. "Because he's president" is no excuse for any of it. I'd add that 'rethinking' the dinner isn't the answer, rethinking the DC press corps is. A must read: open.substack.com/pub/margaret...
The predictable disgrace of the White House Correspondents Dinner
And why I reject every specious argument that encourages the media to keep normalizing Trump
