We still do not know a lot about Marineland. If any Marineland workers or Animal Welfare Services inspectors see this and want to tell the public what’s going on, please DM me. Confidentiality guaranteed.

So sorry to hear about the death of Peter Rosenthal, a fierce defender of social justice who was vocal about abuses of power. He spoke to me, and the Star, countless times, but this @liamdevlincasey profile might be my favourite. RIP. thestar.com/news/crime/peter…
