I was 13 years old at a doctors appointment by myself and the doctor put the tongue depressor too far down my throat and when I didn't gag he chuckled and said "I wish I had a girlfriend like you".
I didn't even understand what he meant until years later.

On this Remembrance Day, we honour the strength of those who have served and those who continue to serve.
Their journey goes beyond service, moving toward healing, connection, and community.

Today, we honour and thank all those who have sacrificed for our rights and freedom and continue to serve our country. They believed their actions would make a significant difference in the future, and we must ensure that their dream of peace is realized every #RemembranceDay.

It took several days to count every ballot in 2020, and it’s very likely we won’t know the outcome tonight either. So please keep a few things in mind as you make your voice heard today:
– Thousands of election workers around the country are working hard today. Respect them. Thank them.
– Don’t share things before checking your sources.
– Let the process run its course. It takes time to count every ballot.
