I hope @FLOTUS informs @realDonaldTrump of their impending #divorce in a tweet. I hope that any #LawEnforcement agencies wishing to arrest Donald Trump on January 21, 2021 lets him know that his cell #reservation is confirmed in a tweet. #Enough of his anti-social #media antics.

Delaney Jane Releasing New EP December 11th, 2020

Toronto, ON – JUNO Award nominated and Platinum selling Canadian pop singer and songwriter Delaney Jane releases her new EP Somewhere Else on December 11 via Dirty Pretty Things / AWAL and all streaming services. 

Somewhere Else – an energetic 6-track EP, draws the listener in with catchy hooks while exploring heavier themes of escapism, fear, desire, lust, and disappointment. The EP’s title track ‘Somewhere Else’ illustrates the struggles of finding yourself, and the feeling of needing to be “somewhere else” all the while Delaney never strays from her accessible pop roots. 

Other notable tracks include the lead single “Just As Much" featuring platinum selling, JUNO Award Winner Virginia To Vegas. The track outlines the feelings after a break-up, equally hating and missing the person and knowing you shouldn't want to see them.

Reality TV versus Real Life

I'm not sure how many Canadians have been paying attention to the 2020 federal election debates south of the border.  For me it's become somewhat of a guilty pleasure.  Yes, I am interested in how they are going to address each topic of the debate and whether or not they will respect the moderator.  Those aspects of the debate are not as important to me as what happens after the debates. 

I have become overly focused on what happens as the spouses approach the candidates once the debate is officially over.  Who could possibly be a better endorsement of a presidential candidate than a spouse? 

After tonight's debate I observed the current First Lady approaching her husband rather stiffly, then positioning herself beside him as if she were a robot or a prop.  It almost makes me wonder if it was rehearsed.  It seems to be designed as something she is supposed to do. Not something she actually wants to do.

Certainly, any hand holding would have had to have been pre-negotiated.  How many times have we seen her publicly slap his hand away? There is no warmth .... no truth ... to their relationship.  They just seem to be performing some scripted role.     

Then, there's how the future First Lady approached her husband.  Full on.  Arms open. She is still very much in love with her husband. There is no hesitation in her expressions of affection toward her husband.  There is no pretense. 

If we were to base the outcome of the upcoming election on the body language of the spouses - (They know the candidate better than anyone else!) - I'd say that the wives that took to that stage tonight made it abundantly clear who should be the next President of the United States.  They left no question as to who is the better man.  #Biden2020

The death of George Floyd ignited a reckoning across every facet of our society. In media, conversations about anti-Black racism have given weight and prominence to stagnant discussions about newsroom culture and composition—and the biases found in coverage of Black, Indigenous and people of colour. Is this the year meaningful change will finally happen? 

Join Nana aba Duncan, host of CBC Radio One’s Podcast Playlist and Ontario’s weekend morning show Fresh Air; Karen K. Ho, a global finance and economics reporter for New York-based Quartz, a digital business news publication, and Angela Sterritt, a journalist with CBC Vancouver and member of the Gitxsan Nation, in conversation with moderator Anna Maria Tremonti, host of the CBC podcast More.

                    Join us for this free virtual event.

                                                        Thursday, September 24
