My family has been shattered. Our youngest boy took his own life as a result of his drug addiction, despite our attempts to get him the help that he needed. Please share my FB post to help change how addiction and mental health is viewed in today's world.

Kyle Beach wept as he apologized to the 16 year old victim that was abused by Brad Aldrich for not doing his part to prevent his assault. Let that sink in as some of you defend Chevy for not being accountable to protect Beach who then was only 20 years old.

I'm fucking sick of all the racist shit being thrown out there about Jagmeet Singh. Hate his policies and be against his politics all you want, but bringing up this "he doesnt care about real Canadians BS" is blatantly racist and uncalled for. He is as Canadian as anyone else.

There is absolutely no need to tweet this other than a desire to shine a positive light on this. Disgusting.

Don Cherry is an old white hockey man. What did you expect? Tolerance and acceptance? He hates progress/change in his sport, can't even accept visors and celebrations. Who is surprised he's a racist? He is an old white man shaking his fist at everything. His time passed years ago

One year ago today we lost Gabriel. Everyday he is in our hearts and on our minds. He was such a free and loving spirit full of love and an open door to everyone and everything. He literally befriended so many from all different walks of life, it's really yard to describe how he

Patrik Laine is going to be the second generational scorer from Finland to be traded by a Winnipeg NHL franchise. Fuck we suck.

On the anniversary of Gabriel’s death we ask that you take a moment to reach out to anyone who is struggling. Whatever the gesture know that it makes a difference. If you can please donate to the Bruce Oake Foundation in Gabriel’s name. Save a life today

Trouba says his fiancΓ©e is training to be a doctor and wants to practice in the U.S., which made committing to #nhljets difficult. "We want to have a life together and live together. Her career is just as important as mine. This is a pretty good situation for both of us." #WFP

My family will be at the community meeting tomorrow to show our support for the Bruce Oake Recovery Centre and the plan unveiling tomorrow. We will be wearing our black shirts that we wore to mourn the loss of our Gabriel to combat these protestors in white. We need your support!

So infuriating. I met the late Bruce Oake. This place will make a difference, in his memory. More not-in-my-backyard BS. #hypocrisy
