On a serious note, there was a lot of chatter about an unprecedented security threat at the time - and the White House’s reasoning never made sense - but this is fantastic reporting from Dan. The details are insane. You should read this article.

EXCLUSIVE: For weeks, the White House has said President Trump flew from Turkey on the “former Air Force One,” after the newer AF1 jet gifted by Qatar flew to Britain separately. But that’s not the case. In reality, Trump took a *third* jet, unbeknownst to media and some staff.

I put these two clips of Daddy together because I want to share him saying “I’m tired of marching,” then, after continuing the multifaceted work of nonviolence, saying “I’ve been to the mountaintop.” The 2nd clip is from the speech he gave the night before he was assassinated. #MLK #MLKDay #Mountaintop #MLKDay2026

Norovirus spreads quickly, but prevention makes a big difference. Wash hands often, clean surfaces regularly, and stay home if you’re sick. If you experience vomiting or diarrhea, wait 48 hours after symptoms stop before returning to work or school.#PreventNorovirus #PublicHealth

Every time the Blues are within driving distance of Peterborough, Dara Plager rounds up members of the family and makes the trip to watch them play. Tonight is no different - the Plagers are in Ottawa to cheer on the Blues! Dara’s dad, Bill, and uncles, Bobby and Barclay, all played for the Blues.

Yesterday's forecast has shifted within the past 24 hours. What's changed? There is a much lower chance for snow areawide, with most locations forecast to see light rain or nothing. The greatest chance for snow remains in our far northern counties, though they may not see any.
Graphic shows two maps: a map of yesterday's outdated forecast, and a map of the latest forecast. The comparison shows that snow is much less likely, and that the forecast is now rain or nothing for most.
