Switzerland 101-
My takeaways about Zurich.
Beautiful city. Very happy friendly people and extremely accommodating...
Zero language barrier. It amazes me how many Europeans speak some sort of English.
Switzerland is definitely one of the more expensive Euro countries. I'd estimate 50% more expensive to eat and drink here than Italy or Portugal. But a great experience.
We rented a hotel for $200Can a night which I thought was a great deal.
For eating - The cheese fondues here are a must experience, and dont forget to sample the chocolate.
For getting around the city -
The transit system is outstanding, but also a very walkable city. We did about 15,000 steps a day. Thanks Zurich 🇨🇭
Enjoyed fundraising night for Niagara Crime Stoppers at Abbamania tribute show with the Bee Gees Night Fever at the Greg Frewen Theatre in Niagara Falls. Capacity audience who gave a standing ovation. Lots of money raised for Crime Stoppers and great performances by the groups.

🚨 EXTENSIVE STORM SURGE DAMAGE – PENSACOLA BEACH, FL! 🌊⚠️
The aftermath of Hurricane Isaias is incredible across Pensacola Beach, Florida! Thick layers of sand cover many roads after powerful storm surge pushed water and debris inland. Damaged homes, missing roofs, partially collapsed structures, half-sunken boats, downed power lines, and scattered debris paint a devastating picture of the hurricane's impacts. Evidence of significant coastal flooding can be seen throughout the area.

The Special Investigations Unit has concluded its independent investigation into the officer-involved shooting that occurred during the execution of a search warrant on June 11 and has cleared our officers.
While this decision brings their investigation to a close, it does not diminish the profound loss our Service continues to feel. On that day, we lost Constable Marc Pinizzotto, a dedicated member of our Emergency Task Force, a respected colleague, and a friend. Marc gave his life in service to others, and his sacrifice will never be forgotten.
The members of our Emergency Task Force are among the most highly trained and skilled officers in the country, and they routinely face dangerous and dynamic situations with professionalism, courage, and exceptional expertise. In the months since losing their colleague and friend, they have demonstrated tremendous resilience while continuing to serve the people of Toronto with dedication.
I want to thank members of the public for your support during this difficult time and for continuing to keep Marc's family, friends, and loved ones in your thoughts. Your ongoing support has meant a great deal to our Service and to all those who knew and loved Marc.

James Freeland’s mother, Donna, is a victim of the Covid injection
Donna died merely hours after getting the shot
James’ testimony about his mom reflects the deeply personal grief carried by families who have lost loved ones and the courage it takes to speak publicly about it
Listen to Donna’s story. That’s all we ask. Nothing more.

The Faces of the Allison Inquiry — Part 4
Part 4 of our portrait series features several of the expert witnesses who appeared before the Allison Inquiry: Dr. Peter McCullough, Dr. Jessica Rose, Dr. Charles Hoffe, and U.S. Senator Ron Johnson.
Captured by photographer Yan Parisien, these portraits offer a glimpse beyond the testimony—preserving the people, the moments, and the atmosphere of four extraordinary days on Parliament Hill in Ottawa.
The testimony matters. The people behind it matter too.
