I'm not sure what's worse... that I was on hold for over an hour with @TD_Insurance, or that it took them 4 years and 9 months (to the day) to reply to my tweet!? 🀯🀯🀯

You never know what's going to happen when riding the TTC. This morning someone started singing "Can't Help Falling In Love With You" - just the chorus, not too loudly, not that well - and then stopped. Smiles shared amongst strangers listening. #503 #streetcarlife

Great to see Prime Minister @JustinTrudeau and other ministers supporting renters and advocating that rent payments should be included in credit scores - a problem we're solving for with Rent Advantage.

Report your rent payments to the credit bureau to build credit history in Canada. Rent reporting helps build credit so you can access more credit products at better rates.

Young Canadians put a lot of their hard-earned money towards rent every month. We think that should count for a lot more – like towards your credit score.

Couldn't agree more! Renters should get credit for on-time rent payments and we're making that possible for Canadians.

If you pay your rent on time, that should count for something. We're going to make it easier to use your rental history to qualify for a mortgage so you can buy a home.

An activist who thrived on agitation, he feared irrelevancy in exile. Winning new respect as he continued to lambast the Kremlin from behind bars cost him his life.

...whose first book, Every Summer After, I'd just finished. We were literally on our way home after returning it to the library. And then I found out Uzma knows author @Sonali_Dev, whose modern, South Asian versions of Jane Austen novels I binged a few months ago.

Tonight my daughter & I stumbled upon a book launch at our much-loved bookstore @QueenBooksTO... and discovered there's a sisterhood of authors of some of my fave books! We met author @UzmaWrites & got a signed copy of her new book, which has an endorsement from @CarleyFortune...
