If you are in #Toronto on Friday night and looking for something to do, go check out a fantastic @Luminato event celebrating the work of #ToniMorrison hosted by literary critic @donnabnurse and featuring the likes of 2-time @GillerPrize winning author #EsiEdugyan

While journalists are speaking out about being attacked rn (I agree we need to speak out & it’s nice to see leaders supporting them/us), I’d like to remind people of what it’s like to be an Indigenous woman journalist, even months ago. Here is an example of the emails I get:

**You do not need a voting card to vote. Do not panic if you didn't receive one.** If you come to the poll with proof of identification and address, you can vote. You still need to provide ID even if you received the card. The card can only be used to verify your address.

"Right now it's not sufficient to be weak," said Afghan educator @BarakPashtana. "Right now is the time to put your foot down and fight for it, because if you don't speak now, you will never be able to speak again,” she told @nora3000 cbc.ca/1.6143672

If you’re in the Toronto area, you’ve got a couple hours to go down to the home of the Raptors and the Leafs and get the fastest vaccination ever — lineups are negligible, in and out in 20 minutes — from these legends. First or second shots, anyone over 12.

I was interviewed by @CBC recently to talk about a variety of topics, such as how the games industry has fared during the pandemic. Thanks for having me @nora3000! cbc.ca/radio/spark/online-ga…

As people continue to look for opportunities to socialize at a distance, more and more are using game play to socialize right now. The video game industry is facing some real challenges nonetheless.
