Accounts run by men receive roughly double the retweets of those run by women. Even online, we are talked for and talked over. Even online, men’s voices carry twice as much worth. It matters. When you see women writing about things that interest you, retweet us. It’s that simple.

Even banks are no longer funding oil sands, so why is the Canadian government considering it? We have til 28 Feb to express our outrage at this destruction of our beautiful country. Here’s a SUPER easy way to let the decision makers know you want to #RejectTeck #ClimateCrisis

Very proud to be part of this #BellLetsTalk event with CMHA. The work of @MOBYSSBUS in supporting youth blows me away- so glad we could recognize their impact today. #mentalhealthishealth – at Richmond Hill, Ontario
So happy to welcome Education Minister @Sflecce and @GilaMartow aboard the MOBYSS bus. Our mobile youth mental health clinic provides free, confidential and zero-wait access to care for young people in York Region. A great way to recognize #bellletstalk day!
Hot tip for #ScottyfromMarketing and his team. Communication is only effective when it’s authentic. You can’t apply advanced BS to your messaging and hope it’ll stick. #communication #PR – at Toronto, Ontario
I don’t think the AFR does satire, so this is no joke. A week before he jetted off to Hawaii & in the middle of the bushfires & choking smoke the PM's office called in Russel from marketing to discuss “selling” the government better afr.com/politics/federal/pm-…
This was a hard article to write & is in some ways harder to share, but sometimes you have to make yourself vulnerable when something matters. My story in this weekend’s @globeandmail: #AustraliaOnFire #ClimateEmergency tgam.ca/38jaPEU – at Toronto, Ontario

For everyone talking about their new year’s resolutions on social media... can we please agree that when you’ve decided to eat well, the word is HEALTHILY, not healthy? This makes me very emotional every year. #NewYear #resolutions2020 – at Toronto, Ontario

1: My hometown Melbourne yesterday. 2: What it normally looks like. Kids are being rushed to hospital unable to breathe. It’s a fraction of what country folk are experiencing. I feel angry & powerless. This is what a #ClimateEmergency looks like. #melbournesmoke #Australia – at Toronto, Ontario

Genius – at Melbourne, Victoria
My favourite (if controversial) summer barbecue hack is to buy a half loaf of bread and get them to run it through the slicer lengthways instead of sideways. It produces a sausage-sized piece of bread that makes for perfect “sausage in bread”. You’re welcome.
This is huge. The FT’s editorial board pillories Aus govt’s response to the #bushfires and climate change. A shockingly inadequate response at every level, from treatment of firefighters to policy-level climate denial. Deservedly lambasted on the international stage. #Australia – at Melbourne, Victoria
Scott Morrison's government stands as a reproach to any leaders tempted to follow its lamentable response to the deepening threat of climate change. The view from the FT's Editorial Board ft.com/content/5082d45c-232e… via @financialtimes

Happy happy and merry merry to all! I’ve wrapped my last present and am about to enjoy a traditional Aussie Christmas Eve dinner of fish and chips and the cookies that have been left out for Santa. Hope you all have a peaceful break, whatever you’re up to. #ChristmasEve – at Melbourne, Victoria

Reminded how important psychological safety is in the workplace. If people don't feel safe, toxic behaviours are just an email away. If you see toxic behaviours from someone, take the time to try to understand what it is they are afraid of. It will be something.
