Life is short friends! Make sure you spend as much time as possible on the internet arguing with people you dont know.

Thousands of hydro workers across the country were called in to assist with emergencies during their holidays. They’re heroes, and we should be thankful. #MerryChristmas 🇨🇦

I’m losing faith in humanity.
I helped someone quickly change their broken windshield wiper in a parking lot, she was so happy and thankful and said “I could marry you”.
What kind of world do we live in when you help someone out and they threaten to ruin your life.

A couple bought a used washer and dryer from a guy. He was asking $500, they said they had a new baby and offered $400.
When they got it home, they opened up the dryer and there was their $400 in an envelope. The man said it was a gift for the baby.
More of this, please.

No warnings! It's disrespectful to park in the accessibility spot. Same excuse every time, they just ran in for two seconds. $450 fine - not worth it. Thanks @PCPappy

You know when it snows and your vehicle is covered, and you open the door to get the snow brush and a bunch of snow gets sucked in and lands on your seat?
Yeah, you know what I’m talking about.

Recruits seem younger and younger these days.
The Toronto Police application process is closed, but only for a short time. Keep on top of things and be ready when it opens up! It’s up to you to prepare. Good luck! #Careers #Toronto @TorontoPolice @TPSRecruiting @TikTok_Canada

If police can take it one step further, why can't you in your own home?
There's been a lot of debate in Canada about homeowners being charged after defending themselves. Think about it - police don't "match" a suspect's level of force.
Even if someone is unarmed, officers have batons, pepper spray, tasers, and protective gear. So why should it be different for you in your own home?
If an intruder breaks in, you don't know their intentions, their fighting skills, or if they're high on drugs or in crisis. You shouldn't have to wait to find out. It's your home, your family, and should be your right to defend yourself.
Do you agree - or should homeowners be charged for going one step further?

Should Cops be allowed to swear during extremely stressful calls, such as ordering an armed suspect to the ground?

I have way too much life invested in cassettes to leave them behind. Rewinding in class with a pencil, waiting for a song to play on the radio to press record, etc.
I love my old Sony Walkman, pure nostalgia.
Thanks @boom973toronto for the inspiration!

I was standing in line at a busy bank yesterday in #Toronto. The teller, in a loud voice, counted out $800 in cash on the counter and then handed it to a senior citizen who put it in a purse and left. This is common and needs to stop.

I wasn’t going to start eating bad until closer to a Christmas but let’s face it, December is a write off. To be honest, it’s been a write off since Halloween. I’ll start sometime in January probably. Maybe after Easter, we’ll see.

You are your family’s first line of defence, not the police. That shouldn’t be a controversial statement.

I told her that we don’t have any family members without issues.

Today, Constable Andrew Hong will be laid to rest. Andrew proudly served as a member of the Toronto Police Service for 22 years. He died in the line of duty on Monday, September 12, 2022.
Rest In Peace, brother 💙

This saddens me beyond belief. I’ve worked with Security Guards for many years, they’re often placed in very dangerous situations with little or no support. Her death is now ruled a homicide. They deserve our gratitude and our respect.
May you Rest In Peace Harmandeep Kaur 🌹❤️

An extremely tragic incident today ended with an Ontario Provincial Police officer losing his life.
My thoughts are with the family and friends of the fallen officer, the entire Police Service,and everyone else involved.

Happy New Year!
I told myself I’d start eating better, but you never start eating healthy on a Friday, you start on Monday. However, the shelves will soon be packed with chocolate for Valentines Day, followed by Easter, so I’m thinking perhaps mid April or May at this point. 😎

Random awesome memory:
Being excited at school when the custodian went on the roof of the school during recess to throw all the balls down that ended up there over the past month by accident.
Exciting times!

Some people don’t get it.
Times are tough, people are struggling. Mentally, emotionally, financially. Miss one payday and they could lose it all, and prices keep going up.
They can be one disrespectful gesture or word away from completely losing control.
Be careful, and kind.

When I was young, people kept diaries of their daily thoughts and got mad when anyone tried to read them.
Nowadays, people post their daily thoughts online and get mad when nobody reads them. 😂

So 200 additional Police officers to be hired in the City of #Toronto.
You could hire 500 officers, but if those committing crimes such as assault, robbery, etc. often while breaching release conditions don’t face serious consequences, will it matter?
Is this a bandaid solution?

I’ve made a point of saying “you’re welcome” in a rather loud tone when people behind me don’t acknowledge when I hold the door for them. They usually look at me like I’m the rude or obnoxious one.
It’s becoming a favourite pastime, I almost don’t want them to say thanks now.

I had a good week. I stayed positive, I was good to myself, I helped others. But dammit, two adults, an infant, and a teenage boy died at our border this past week. Froze to death. Imagine the adult holding the baby. What was going through their minds. It rips at your very soul.

Two things:
1. During a windy night, if snow blows from your neighbour’s front lawn on to your shovelled driveway and causes a snowdrift, it’s not their responsibility to have to shovel it for you.
2. It’s not a Police matter so don’t call them.

I don’t mean to brag, but yesterday I remembered to grab one of my 300 reusable bags from the rear seat of my vehicle before I went inside the store, and didn’t have to buy another.
I don’t even remember buying this one.

Yesterday the Toronto Police Aboriginal Peacekeeping Unit (APU) celebrated its 30 year anniversary.
One of my proudest moments as an Officer was when I had the unique pleasure of honouring our newest Police Constables with a smudge/cleansing Ceremony.

Not everyone you see on the streets, on transit, or stand close to at the grocery store may be stable. There may be mental health concerns or simply be at the end of their rope.
Think before you confront others, and watch your tone. You may get a response you don’t expect…

I just sat with and watched a dad take his toddler son up and down an escalator multiple times. Every time they got on, the toddler smiled and laughed with excitement.
It might be the most wholesome thing I’ve done in years.
