We created this bar to keep the name Lake Ontario visible as part of our long-standing Canada Collection. “ONTARÍ’IO” is an Indigenous name that existed long before today’s borders. That history should not be erased. peacebychocolate.ca/collections/...

Nova Scotia - and other provinces - need to bring in produce labelling similar to Ontario’s, which mandates clear place of origin signs. An easy thing for the Houston gov’t to do. Otherwise, I expect other big retailers will follow Loblaw’s lead. Ontario rules here: www.ontario.ca/page/regulat...

Regulatory requirements for produce in Ontario

Learn about requirements for produce under Ontario Regulation 119/11, including food safety, label, packaging, advertising and misrepresentation.

Police in Amsterdam are asking the public to help ID a man who suffered a catastrophic brain event 3 yrs ago & can’t tell them who he is. He’s likely Canadian or American, was a street magician, Buddhist & some locals knew him as Chris the Canadian. Scroll link for English version shorturl.at/6AhcU

From a public post from his sister: the poor soul who ran through Hwy 102 traffic till he was hit by a truck Fri. was suffering fr severe depression brought on by brain injuries from his pro boxing career.

Scientific American is 180 years old. The most eminent science magazine for the general public. And today, sold off as scrap to stop the staff from unionizing. Many top editors I've worked with for a decade on several articles have been fired. What a disgrace @sciam.bsky.social

There’s a Save Our Libraries read-in happening at 1 p.m. today outside Tory MLA John Lohr’s office in Kentville. Libraries are places where knowledge, imagination and community are respected and nurtured - we need more spaces like this, not fewer.

“There is no excuse for downplaying or eliding the insanity of Trump’s morning post. It is the most unhinged public comment by a president in US history and should be reported and remarked upon as such.” - Garrett M. Graff, author/historian

The real focus of stories about this Trump post should be about his rapidly escalating unfitness to be president. Hopefully some major U.S. media outlet will have the courage. He needs to be removed immediately.

President Donald Trump escalated his threats to target Iran’s infrastructure if it does not open up the Strait of Hormuz, warning the country will be “living in Hell” if it doesn’t.
