Collage of portraits and historical photographs featuring several women arranged against a light background. At the upper left is a pencil portrait of Charlotte Small with braided hair and a headscarf. To the upper right are smaller portraits including Barbara Frum speaking into a radio microphone and Maud Abbott in an academic gown. In the center are colour and black-and-white portraits of Michelle Douglas in a Canadian Armed Forces uniform and Judy LaMarsh wearing glasses and a pearl necklace. Along the lower section are Carrie Best reading a newspaper titled “The Clarion,” Kim Campbell wearing medals in a formal portrait, Hide Hyodo Shimizu teaching two children in front of a chalkboard reading “Hastings Park,” and Bobbie Rosenfeld seated with medals and a trophy. On the right side is a large image of Mary Two-Axe Earley gesturing while speaking, wearing glasses and a large pendant necklace. A faint “Canadian History Ehx” logo appears near the center of the collage.

It is International Women's Day.
There have been many, many amazing women who have shaped Canada's history.
I have chosen to feature ten of those women.
These are their amazing stories.

Kyiv.
These two young men spoke English and were enjoying the views today.
Not sure if they were tourists, most likely volunteers.

Anyway, join them and enjoy the view.

Really good thread.

While many cannot visit Kyiv,
and perhaps not everyone will be able to even after the war,
I’m honored to be your eyes into my beloved city and country.

It lives.

a white orb covered in black speckles and spots rests on a dark sofa cushion. the left side is a dalmatian’s face, tucked in toward her haunches with her thin tail wrapped up to hug her face. she is looking at the camera with one sleepy brown eye.

This is Koyuki. Please do not disturb her. She's in ice cream scoop mode right now. Needs to focus. 12/10 (IG: fuji_bull)

35 years ago today: Nirvana plays in Edmonton for the first and last time March 5, 1991, was a frigid day in Edmonton. But that didn’t stop some 50-odd people from braving -30 C to see a then-little-known grunge band from Seattle.

A smiling man wearing an Edmonton Oilers jersey and matching blue cap sits in a black power wheelchair inside a living room. He is facing the camera and holding the joystick controls of his chair. The floor is a dark mahogany hardwood, with a brown leather recliner and a wooden side table behind him. Large text at the top reads “Happy International Wheelchair Day!” and smaller text at the bottom says “Celebrating strength, inclusion, and accessibility!”

Happy International Wheelchair Day💚

My wheelchair isn’t a limitation. It’s independence.

The barrier has never been the chair. It’s inaccessibility.

Celebrate mobility. Demand equitable access. Keep rolling forward.

I will never tire of praising its beauty.

We made it.
We survived this winter.

Across different cultures, crows are often seen as signs of change, as if they appear when something is shifting, carrying a sense of mystery and transformation.

Today in Kyiv.

On Saturday, Feb 28, 2026, Mercury, Venus, Saturn and Jupiter will be visible to the naked eye, whereas Uranus and Neptune will require binoculars or a telescope, according to NASA. Viewers do not have to worry about wearing protective eyewear as they would to watch a solar eclipse.

I don’t have much good news for you.
Only this – it’s the last day of winter.
Winters during war are especially hard.

A vintage looking picture of an older woman, in a lounge chair on a beach. She has a flower in her hair and is holding a fancy cocktail. The following words are on the picture: I was just minding my business and the next thing I know, I'm the same age as old people.

This is bad folks. Very bad.
