If You’re Wondering Where The City Of Cambridge’s Tweets Have Gone, Why Are You Still On Twitter?
Considering that Michael Shellenberger is the mayor’s idea of a good speaker for an addictions and mental health summit, I’ve got to say that I’m pleasantly surprised and borderline shocked to hear that the city is doing what we all should be doing if we haven’t already and getting off Twitter.

Doug Ford Sending Money Through The Mail Like It’s 1992 Is Not A Mystery And Ohmygod I’m So Irritated By All Of This
If there’s anything that isn’t super annoying about Doug Ford lately, I can’t find it. Even when I was starting to kinda get on board with his patriotic fight for Canada against Trump gimmick, he had to go and ruin it by admitting, to what should be no one’s surprise, that he was happy Trump …
