something has been missing in the story about theatre in Canada…some optimism.
Tired of doomscrolling? Chris Abraham, the artistic director of Crow’s Theatre in Toronto, has the solution: put your phone down and go see a play. macleans.ca/culture/put-do…
Did you know Toronto's Black community protested the 1993 production of Show Boat? @DrCherylT revisits the roots of this resistance in TRIC 45.2’s special issue on Black performance in Canada: bit.ly/TRIC452f
they let me write the headline theatlantic.com/technology/arc…
@DrCherylT @wlupress Congratulations! Pre-order placed, I look forward to reading it in the spring.
I am so excited to share that my book, Canada and the Blackface Atlantic is available for pre-order. This is one of the first books of its kind to use the stage as the platform to explain Canadian history!! @wlupress wlupress.wlu.ca/Books/C/Canada…. #NewBook #HistoryUncovered #PreOrder
Canadian literature fans take notice! Don't miss seeing this classic novel adapted for the stage. Tickets➡️ow.ly/m5H950T8UHE #Stratfest #SFDiviners
Quite seriously, I think the impact of pharmacists prescribing for minor illness has had a negligible effect on ER volumes and ER wait times. We are no better off than when this bullshit program started, although Shoppers' Drug Mart is undoubtedly far better off financially.
Ontario pharmacists have conduced more than 1-million minor ailment assessments so far. But unlike with doctors, OHIP funding goes to the pharmacy, not the pharmacist, leading to concerns that private companies have gained backdoor access to public healthcare cash. #onpoli
I called the architectural firm that built the Ontario Science Centre — Moriyama Teshima — for comment. They have issued a statement supporting the current site. And they’re offering free consulting services to get roof repairs made and the Science Centre reopened.

Canadian writer Alice Munro, whose short stories have been beloved for the past six decades, has died at 92. ' Her earthy humour and ability to extend sympathy to every character made her a household name, and made her birthplace of Wingham, Ontario, a place of literary pilgrimage. She won the Nobel Prize in 2013, the only Canadian to ever win for literature, and the Giller Prize twice, then disqualified herself from the running in 2009 to make way for younger writers. Ms. Munro leaves her daughters Sheila, Jenny and Andrea. More here: tgam.ca/4aeMyiU

@JaelRichardson I have a piece of writing that needs to be submitted today...this hits too hard. 😆
@andymckim I am always confounded when I hear a playwright criticized for considering their audience. Some of my favourite plays are written by those who focus on the audience while writing.
@ArchivesOntario At first glance: food, beverage, hand sanitizer, lotion are all on the table when they shouldn't be. Box and notebook on the item. Pen isn't allowed, only pencil. And the cardinal archives sin: personal bag at the desk!
