"When being just and honest comes at a price, pay it.
When forgiving seems like a defeat, forgive. "
Indeed.
When being just and honest comes at a price, pay it. When forgiving seems like a defeat, forgive. When everyone tells you to think of yourselves first, do not be afraid to put yourselves in the last place. Be willing to give up time, money, comfort and plans to serve others. May those who see you find themselves asking: “Why do they live in this way? Where do they get this freedom? Why do they love one another so much?” #ApostolicJourney #Uruguay

Paging everyone who was mad about the much lower cost of naming Sankofa Square.
The Ford government's decision to move the Science Centre to the waterfront came with an extra cost--changing the now awkwardly named Science Centre Station
The bill: $618,000

The people who insisted that Bradford wouldn't privatize Toronto's water are now behind Ford's plan to privatize Toronto's hydro.
Excellent reporting by @mahdishabibinia and @MarcoOved

We need to end this myth that the private sector runs things well, and the public sector runs things badly, before it is too late.
It is very easy to make the public sector look bad by starving it of money and resources over time. We must learn to see through this.
EXCLUSIVE: Democratic legislative leaders were so confident that they would win Tuesday's election that they have been secretly meeting with the Legislative Fiscal Bureau for months to plan an aggressive liberal agenda that they will enact as soon as they are sworn in this January. heartlandpost.com/dems-secre…

Google announcing that schools banning AI will also lose access to Google Search is a pretty good opportunity to teach the next generation that Google isn’t the internet and that there are plenty of alternatives to its platforms. Maybe it’s time schools started exploring them.
