Because of the Online News Act, @Facebook and @Instagram disallowed direct links to most Canadian publications. So I am posting links to my articles and interviews in the Canadian media at #Threads. It would be lovely to connect with you there. threads.com/@AkaashMaharaj 🧵

I am grateful to #Reddit for featuring the r/Equestrian community in its Community Spotlight. Volunteering as an r/Equestrian Mod has enabled me to connect with horsepeople across nations, and to engage with horse cultures around the world. via.maharaj.org/rcs 🐴

I thank the North American association of Freemen of the City of London, for including me in its "Meet the Court" series. Originally, Freedom of the City embodied the right of mediaeval Londoners to live and work beyond the power of feudal lords. Today, it binds together people

“We commend Pope Leo XIV for his lifelong commitment to spreading the good news of universal love and compassion,” said InterfaithConversation.ca, Canada’s national interfaith movement, “and for calling on us all to uphold one another’s dignity as members of a single human family.”

I am touched that my colleagues at Reddit, Inc.'s r/Equestrian community nominated me to the Mod Hall of Fame. But I know others have volunteered greater time and talent to make the online world a more humane place. I thank my peers for their kindness. via.maharaj.org/rmhf 🐴

I had no idea that @Chicago is such a riot of art deco architecture. It is strikingly beautiful. Its public spaces and private buildings reflect another time, when cities constructed themselves as monuments to the ages. I am here to participate in Reddit, Inc.'s Leadership Summit.

Life on our planet began in the seas, and the seas remain the foundation of life everywhere. Yet, too many industries are laying waste to the seas, reducing them to watery deserts. I spoke with CBC News, about David Attenborough's documentary Ocean. via.maharaj.org/ocn 🐋

My Nature Canada colleagues and I were delighted the #SpeechFromTheThrone declared that nature is core to Canadian identity. Our economy will prosper and our society will thrive, only if public institutions protect our country's natural heritage. via.maharaj.org/thrnat 🍁

I offer Pastor @Peter_Noteboom my warmest congratulations. As Co-Chair of InterfaithConversation.ca, he is one of Canada's foremost leaders in fostering interfaith understanding and national unity. He is eminently deserving of the Martin Luther University College Global Advocacy Award.

Is it possible to spend a full day laying plans to confront the global withering away of biodiversity, yet smile the entire time? It is if you are meeting at Mādahòkì Farm, and you periodically slip out to pet the baby goats. madahoki.ca 🐐

I have bid my final goodbye to Jumblie, the best dog in the world. He lived to nearly fifteen, an exceptionally long life for a Dalmatian. I know I am blessed to have had so much time with him. Yet, it also makes the grief so much deeper, because he was by my side for so long,

Can Canadians of different faiths stand together, in defiance of social and political conflicts that would drive us all apart? I will moderate a discussion on fostering hope through interfaith understanding, at Our Whole Society, today, in Winnipeg. interfaithconversation.ca 🕊️

I enjoyed speaking with Matt Ingram, about Mark Carney's decision to recognise the State of Palestine, following France and the UK. Will @Netanyahu respond by allowing more water, food, and medicine to reach Gaza's civilians? Or will he instead tighten his grip on the region?

I listened to "I Believe" by @BlessidBand today, for the first time in thirty years. Time has stolen none of its power: lyrical without being maudlin; appealing to conscience without sanctimony. I still wonder if Lisa ever called @EliotSloanMusic! youtube.com/watch?v=NePcDL… 🎶

In November, @UofG will host its tenth-anniversary Equine Industry Symposium. I have been delighted to volunteer with the students and faculty over the decade, as they have summoned Canada’s horsepeople together, overcoming our infamous intransigence to build common cause. This

The Oxford Union recently celebrated its 200th anniversary, as the world's foremost debating society. Throughout that history, its assets have been safeguarded by Trustees, who have protected the institution for successive generations of #Oxford students. I am delighted to join

It is just as well that there are few occasions when Canadians are called to wear state honours: all this metal makes me feel like a discount Mr. T. I was moved that my peers nominated for the Coronation Medal, and I thank the Royal Canadian Geographical Society for hosting a lovely investiture ceremony.

Earlier this year, I joined ITK’s @NatanObed, at the launch of the SINAA Conservation Agreement. It will protect a vast swathe of Nunavut, through Inuit stewardship. This area will be the front line in the struggle to uphold Canadian sovereignty, as foreign powers
