This year marks 65 years of the NORAD Santa tracker! Colonel Harry Shoup began the tradition in 1955, after receiving a phone call from a child expecting to reach Santa Claus.

Devastating.
There's no ignoring the impacts of climate change. No lamenting. Just action.

Stupendous job @Geo_Fletch ! Many thanks!
An update. Albert is expected to make a full recovery, thank God. He didn't have a heart beat for 25 minutes. 9 minutes of CPR by me, 15 by paramedics. I am looking forward to when he comes home so we can have a double date with our wives #CPR @RedCrossOntario

It doesn’t include a single cent for municipalities, which are facing billions of dollars in deficits and cuts.” This puts local governments, which are creatures of the province with the regressive property tax as our primary source of revenue, in a difficult financial position.

Here is an interesting current reality. The granting of marriage licenses is considered an essential service. Hmm...

I have a BA in English Lit. What I know about infectious diseases I've learned from generous doctors & researchers who have taught me so much over the years. One of them is the brilliant Gary Kobinger. (Wired: ZMapp is a therapy, not a vaccine) wired.com/story/creator-ebol…
There are too many non-essential operations besides construction continuing. Half-measures won’t be effective. Get serious.
All health care providers are absolutely critical partners in fighting COVID-19 and are working day and night to protect their workers and patients. That's why my team and I will never stop working to secure even more PPE for them. Can you help? Visit Ontario.ca/ontariotogether

St. Catharines city council to meet electronically stcatharinesstandard.ca/news…
It is time to discontinue selling lottery and scratch and win tickets, since it is entirely nonessential and puts customers forced to queue-up and the cashiers who are often part time, teenagers at risk.
If they are truly concerned about distance between customers, it does not make sense to reduce the number of hours the stores are open, as this only serves to concentrate the density of shoppers by forcing us to be buying groceries over a shorter period of time.

This morning St. Catharines GO Station ticket vending machine was not working (red light on, please wait message). Passenger advises CSA on board of situation, he says tough luck and refuses service. Others were likely boarding without tickets due to circumstances. @GOtransit
