My only thought today as the states’ electoral votes were listed off: they skipped Canada.

We’ll fix that next time!

In May, community members rallied around the elderly cat after someone filed a complaint against Nutmeg with CVS’ corporate offices. Residents circulated a petition in support of their furry friend and sent messages to the pharmacy chain’s customer-service team online.

Every reporter in Canada to the RCMP:

That's good, right? Oh.

Some young activists, though, articulated a political vision that goes far beyond any Trump-campaign pledge. For them, the future of American conservatism should be rooted in a patriarchal version of Christianity and an unapologetic ethnonationalism.

So hey, by the way, if any of you are relying on chatGPT for literally anything, you really should not be doing that.

#BREAKING News 1130 and Sportsnet 650 are no more. Rogers is shutting down six radio stations in 4 markets.

Hi Simon,

Here is a statement from Rogers Sports & Media:

“After a thorough review of our radio stations across the country, we have made the difficult but necessary decision to close Sportsnet 650 and News 1130 in Vancouver. We are grateful to our listeners and to our team for their contributions to the local community.”

And here are a few facts for reporting:

This is one of six radio stations in four markets closing due to declining audience and revenue trends. Others are news and sports stations in Calgary and news stations in Halifax and Kitchener.
We continue to own and operate 44 radio stations in nearly 30 communities across the country and to invest in local news in the impacted markets.
Sportsnet will move the radio production of Canucks games to another Rogers Sports & Media owned station in the market. More details to come.

Let me know if any Qs.

Thanks,

Jason

Imagine saying "The United States’ soft power now relies less on USAID than on Applebee’s" with a straight face

Something else has happened over the past four weeks of this tournament: People from around the world came to our shores and fell in love with our country. The United States’ international standing has been badly damaged in the Trump era—alliances have been strained, bombs have been dropped, foreign aid has been cut—yet waves of foreign visitors have been moved by what they have found. There have been exceptions, and some of the good vibes are surely online fabrications, but for many, the geopolitical tensions have been temporarily set aside. Thousands of Norwegians marveled at the lights of Times Square. Algerians were delighted by the warm welcome they received in Lawrence, Kansas. The Scots drank Boston out of beer. A supposed German tourist went viral for a chain-restaurant tour of the South. The America on display was the land of plenty: full supermarkets, air-conditioning that actually works in a heat wave, endless appetizers and breadsticks. The United States’ soft power now relies less on USAID than on Applebee’s.
