Sad loss of a man who did so much for so many. My condolences to the Sinclair family and to the many people whose lives he touched.
Murray Sinclair, member of Peguis First Nation, who served as chief commissioner of the Truth and Reconciliation Commission of Canada, has died. cbc.ca/news/politics/murray-…
Wonderful interactive piece from CBC News:

Hear! Hear! We need the best and the brightest to enter and thrive in the field of Canadian journalism. This is a big contribution to that goal by @petermansbridge, who deserves 👏
My friend @petermansbridge donated a total of $300,000 to support journalism education at 3 Canadian universities this week, @UBC @JSchool_CU @ukings I'm mentioning it because he might not, and because it's a gesture worth appreciating, in a field that is so important.
Respectfully, Hannah did request Mr. Chong but did not have confirmation. When we learned he was at CBC, he had only a short window. I spoke to him, as the CBC's Parl. Bureau chief, and we offered other options to interview him today. That offer stands any time
At 2:39 PM, @HannahThibedeau requested @MichaelChongMP come on her @CBCNews show to talk about the startling revelations that Justin Trudeau misled Canadians about Beijing's interference in our democracy.
Within 12 minutes, staff confirmed & booked Mr. Chong to come.
Then, at 2:58 PM, as Mr. Chong was already standing in the CBC building, she cancelled.
For the next hour, she covered news about Donald Trump, Ed Sheeran, and the Liberal convention. And you're telling me there is no bias at the CBC?
