My experience with @AirCanada since Jan 2024: 3 trips, 2 “disrupted” flights w/out compensation (1 night hotel at my expense), 3 pieces of luggage “delayed”, 1 bag (I was asked to check bc full plane) is still lost. We need even better passenger rights.

Nothing fluffy about the weighty snow downtown…perfect for snow-sculpting.

“Because it’s January, the Turners are out.” That’s how the gallery staff explained it to me. By request of the painter, these water colours are only exhibited in the low light of mid-winter.
We have late opening tonight until 8.30pm, and Thursday evenings in January are always a lovely (slightly quieter!) time to spend time visiting our annual exhibition of Turner watercolours. You'll find them in our Print Gallery, admission free. https://t.co/ibmuMsm58O

My fellow settlers, I want to gently suggest this is not the time for us to be weighing in on the Buffy St. Marie story. Allow the people who are directly affected time to process this. Sit back and listen to what they have to say.

If government pays your rent then @GovNL needs to inspect units regularly and provide legal support when you are saddled with going to court against your slum landlord who is breaking the RT laws. This is low-hanging “well-being” @PremierofNL @CSSD_GovNL @DGS_GovNL @HCS_GovNL

Sunny up on Long’s Hill, but thick fog in the Narrows, like the Neapolitan ice cream of weather. Makes for a whole lot of horn honking - practically a duet as two vessels seemingly very close together near the North Head, according to marine traffic. Ok, back to work now…

Hi @CityofStJohns @inclusionNL do you know what our regs are for accessibility at events and festivals? I can imagine this isn’t it! I hope the regs coming in for accessibility @GovNL @CSSD_GovNL and barrier free NL include mandatory requirements and education/training #nlpoli

The song isn’t dropping because people got mad at it. It’s dropping because his team stopped buying all the artificial chart-boosting digital downloads they could afford to buy with the money they used to spend on payola.
🚨BREAKING: Jason Aldean’s “Try That in a Small Town” suffers a historic drop from Billboard Hot 100 top spot. After having a reputation as one of the most polarizing songs in radio airplay, the sizzle from Jason Aldean’s most recent single, “Try That in a Small Town”, might be

Maybe it’s time to think about how we are all voting in the next municipal election.

Here is another empty @NLHousing unit in my neighbourhood. Maybe @CSSD_GovNL and @GovNL can fix it up instead of paying $$$ for 2X market value private rentals. Some of these private landlords don’t care about their neighbours or community. We need supportive housing now!

Here are two empty @NLHousing units on Lime Street. They’ve been empty since the fire on December 3, 2021. I wonder how many @GovNL $2500 a month cheques to bad landlords would justify repairing these and making them into supervised housing? #nlpoli

In my neighbourhood we have building owners who rent to GovNL for 2-3 times market value for people that are difficult to house. They don’t want to change a thing. They don’t even live in the neighbourhood. This is creating ghettos, and @CSSD_GovNL is not taking responsibility.

A couple of years back, Gordon Lightfoot sits cross legged on the floor as John Prine recalls when he first met his songwriting hero in a Toronto folk club in 1971. https://t.co/aszJrCTMdF
