Today we remember Corporal Nathan Cirillo, who was killed in a terrorist attack while on guard duty at Canada’s National War Memorial in Ottawa on October 22, 2014. Our thoughts remain with him, his family, and all who knew and loved him. 🕊️❤️🇨🇦

I was thrilled to stop by and congratulate Don Cherry in person on his appointment to the Order of Ontario. Don is a great Canadian patriot and a champion for our country, our province and the game of hockey. Congratulations!

CBC switches channels from curling with Rachel Homan set to throw her last rock, for the eventual win. I guess a reminder is necessary, every 40 years or so.

In the USSR, our grandparents were persecuted for this Ukrainian tradition of celebrating Christmas. Russians still want to erase our identity. But we exist and will exist.
Here’s what traditional Christmas looks like in Ukraine. 🧵 1/5 ⬇️

I always looked up to Ken Dryden. He revolutionized the position & rose to the occasion in big moments. Beyond his greatness on the ice, he was a remarkable person, and the hockey community will miss him dearly. My condolences to the Dryden family. Photo by my dad, Denis Brodeur

Let’s hope our new found economic nationalism does not turn into a suicide attempt. Once we lose the US market we aren’t getting it back and dependence on China, India or the EU is not any better.

I was honoured to take part in the unveiling of the Bill Davis Memorial yesterday in Brampton. Premier Davis was a builder and a champion for Ontario with an incredible legacy across the province.

Remember: The refrigerated outdoor rink at Ben Franklin Place in Centrepointe should be up and ready for skating in just two weeks! If we’re lucky, it will be a great Christmas activity for the whole family. We started that rink in the former City of Nepean. It was debt free from day 1.
