On this day in 1898, the Yukon Territory was formed. The Canadian government created the territory due to the thousands of Americans flooding into the Klondike during the gold rush in an effort to better control the situation.

“The regulation states that if a local police service offers a school resource officer program, the board must enter into a memorandum of understanding with police to implement it.” Teachers and EAs are losing their jobs, and we’re spending $41M on cops instead.

For the record, Premier Ford promised 30,000 new LTC beds and 28,000 upgraded beds by 2028. 6,700 have been built and 4,297 upgraded. That's a 47,000 bed deficit with 2028 coming up.

We know of 93 calves born in the wild to our ex-orphans. How? Because they chose to bring their newborns home. Some make the pilgrimage from the wild within hours of giving birth. They walk back to the Reintegration Unit they grew up at, find the Keepers who raised them, and introduce the baby. Others might return a few weeks or months after. Each time, our Keepers are like proud grandparents, over the moon with happiness. Yatta has done it four times. Melia twice. This is the moment Tumaren came back with her newest baby. Meet our wildborn family, all alive today because we chose to rescue their orphan mothers: sheldrickwildlifetrust.org/orphans/calves

Incredibly generous gift. I highly recommend you take this chance to donate. I just did. @torontolibrary is one of the best library systems in the world. It was first formed by absorbing the library of the Toronto Mechanics' Institute in 1884 (the mechanics institute that Sandford Fleming inventor of timezones worked at). In 1922 it opened one of the first dedicated children's library in the world. Today it is one of the largest, most used, and most accessible systems anywhere. It has a similar number of locations to the New York public library. By most measures it has more books in circulation than any other comparable system. 80% of the city uses it. It is also home to some truly glorious pieces of library architecture (reference library, North York). It is clean, well run, fast, efficient, free and operates basically everywhere that it could be useful. One of the things Toronto should be very proud of.

Amazing news coming out of Massachusetts this week, I've been riveted to this incredibly stupid drama. A few seniors on the Ipswitch lacrosse team were photographed holding cigars at their graduation (they were 18yo seniors), which was a violation of the no tobacco policy for the league. They were suspended and the team had to forfiet the semi-finals. Harsh! But THEN, one of the dads came forward and claimed that he had personally hand-rolled FAKE cigars out of chamomile tea leaves so that they didn't contain tobacco. The dad even gave the pricipal a reciept showing he had bought tea leaves at the grovery store to make them. The kids mere then un-suspended. Seems like a happy ending where the league doesn't have to admit it loosened the rules, and the kids get to play their final game after a meaningless infraction (a single cigar at graduation is much different than like, vaping!) BUT NO! Now it's revealed that the principal was suspicious of the grocery store receipt, which had the date and time smudged out. So he went in person to the store and asked them to confirm the receipt -- and the store manager revealed the tea purchase was made days after the cigar incident, only after the parents knew the kids were in trouble. Suspended again! bostonglobe.com/2026/06/12/met…

In an emergency, you don’t need to be a professional responder to make a difference. ⛑ Good bystander action is about staying calm, thinking clearly, & acting within your comfort while help is on the way. Some quick steps you can take are: ✔ Start with scene safety. Make sure the area is safe for you and others before approaching. ✔ Call EMS as soon as possible and provide clear, accurate information so responders can get to you quickly. ✔ Focus on simple, supportive actions until help arrives. If you want to learn more explore our training courses here sja.ca/en/first-aid-t…

Three underground Shenzhen Metro Lines that meet at this station were all built for less than 300 million INT$ per km. Each Shenzhen Metro Line here is capable of moving over 50,000 people per hour per direction in massive 8 car Type A trains. Meanwhile below is what spending over 450 million INT$ per km gets you in Toronto, an unventilated half underground tramway.

So evidently they built the Eglinton Crosstown (Line 5) without a forced air circulation system, relying on “passive air circulation”. This results in sopping wet platforms on humid days, all in the name of “saving some energy”. Crazy design decision @Metrolinx.
