I had no money growing up. My dad was a labourer and my mum did everything to make ends meet. Men worked hard. Women worked miracles. But education was free. As was the local library. I knew books were my passport to a better life. Happy #WorldBookDay

My one-and-only brother-in-law Lyons Lucas passed away suddenly on December 3rd. My heart aches over this loss, and for his two sons, David and Keith (Joanne), and his grand-daughter Breanna. We love you, and will miss you dearly. RIP ❤

Took the VIA Rail Canada train 🚆 to Toronto, checked into the fancy Fairmont Royal York 🏨, and had a great dinner 🍴 at #KellysLanding. Wrapped up the day with an awesome Sir Rod Stewart concert 🎸at @budweiserstage. Such a fun road trip! 😎

Attended Royal Ontario Museum for the exhibition that examines the history & legacy of Auschwitz. Survivor testimonials, historical documentation & first-hand accounts created a powerful connection to more than 500 original objects, many never seen before in Canada.
