PS: On Monday, don’t vote for a mayor who wants to remove cycling infrastructure and de-prioritize the safety of vulnerable road users. Vote for a mayor who’s going to bring road safety to YSW and the rest of the city because we deserve it - we always have.

The Ontario Science Centre (Raymond Moriyama, 1969) is a masterpiece and a deeply important building. The Doug Ford government is going to abandon and demolish it. That’s shameful.

Watch this video of a few seconds. That's how sons and, above all, daughters of Iranian dictators live. It has nothing to do with the life they want to impose on Iranian people, particularly on women! #مهسا_امینی #زن_زندگی_آزادی #MahsaAmini #Mahsa_Amini #IranProtests2022

To my, and perhaps your, dismay, I cannot claim responsibility for the series of unfortunate events that is 2020.
I'm pretty sure all of 2020 was and is being written by @lemonysnicket

Luckily it’s my day off and for every photo you post of yourself wearing plaid today, Janssen will donate $5 towards the @cancersociety ’s work to create a world where no Canadian fears prostate cancer. #PlaidforDad thanks @SaharActually for the info!

Sedentary behavior increases your risk of cancer, so it’s important to keep moving even while staying home and practising social distancing. Try adding movement into your day in simple ways – like stretching while watching TV. Check out more tips to help you stay active. 🤸

This year, #COVID19 has changed our world in unprecedented ways, but the daffodil remains a symbol of hope and renewal for Canadians affected by cancer. Join us as we rally Canadians online to spread hope and positivity to those affected by cancer during our #DaffodilCampaign. 💛

Stay home. It doesn’t matter that the weekend’s almost here - if you choose to gather in groups or hang out with your friends, you’re putting yourself, those around you, and our health care workers at risk. So take this seriously. Do the right thing and stay home this weekend.

Not everyone is in the enviable position of being able to confidently boast that they will survive a bout with COVID-19. This isn’t about you. It’s about them. Do your part. Please. #HighRiskCovid19 #FlattenTheCurve

Maria Schuld's passion for quantum physics led her down an unconventional, but incredibly rewarding career path. We had the pleasure of chatting with her -- take a look at our blog here, with guest writer @SaharActually: bit.ly/2u23Zkz #womeninSTEM #movethedial
