Today is THE day. After months of following the advice of 4 amazing @Sunnybrook doctors, I have finished my treatment: 7 chemo sessions, one 10-hr surgery & 16 radiation appointments. For those keeping score Cancer: 0 Meg: 1 #TakeThatCancer

Welcome aboard, @AndyBlatchford! I've had the joy of working with him before. He's not just a multi-talented reporter — a great writer, and prolific deliverer of scoops; he’s also one of the nicest people you'll meet in this business.

Whenever someone donates blood, they get more than just juice and cookies afterwards.
They get a personal text message when the blood is used to save someone's life.
It says: "Thank you, the blood you gave is now helping someone else."

I don’t know how to put this in words. Thank you to the greatest organization in sports for how much they care about their fans. I accept this championship ring on behalf of every @Raptors fan across the globe. Words do not express what this means to me.

This moment.
The brother of Botham Jean, who was shot dead in his own apartment by a white policewoman, tells her that he forgives her.
Then he walks across the floor and gives her a hug.

Here is a glimpse into the vacuous nothing-burger that is Canadian politics today. One of our best minds and writers, Rex Murphy, born in Newfoundland, says it all. nationalpost.com/news/politi…

Given that there is now more footage of @JustinTrudeau in blackface than footage of him not in blackface, we must start to accept that he is a victim of #WrongSkin, and should be congratulated for embracing his brave transracial status.

Canada’s former Supreme Court Justice joking on television about how she wanted to name her dog Harper so she could say “Sit Harper. Bad boy Harper” also wants us to know she was exquisitely impartial and dispassionate when she served on the bench. – at Toronto, Ontario
