Kicked off the weekend with some new trail shoes, temperatures above zero, and spring in the air during my long trail run. Great to see the rivers thawing!

Could not be more proud of you, Team Canada.

You’re coming home with 21 hard-fought Olympic medals. Though what Canadians will remember most is how you wore the Maple Leaf: with pride, with grit, and with determination.

Trump threatens to block opening of new bridge between Ontario and Michigan | CBC News U.S. President Donald Trump is threatening to block the opening of the Gordie Howe Bridge, poised to become the newest border crossing between Windsor, Ont., and Detroit.

Gordie Howe was the king of #ElbowsUp.

Let's give Trump another taste of that, and then build more bridges, with people want the United States to remain a democracy.

Cold but beautiful trail run today at Fanshawe Park (London, Ontario). Photos don’t do justice to how bright and pristine the winter landscape is.

Happy to see that the SCC will hear this case on Crown liability and legislation insulating the government from civil claims.

Perfect trail running conditions today. One of the reasons I love winter running is that the snow covers all those pesky tripping hazards!

I started this paper just as the pandemic hit, and I wasn’t sure if it would see the light of day. Delighted to have it published in the Canadian Bar Review.

Opinion: What are we missing when we avoid quiet at all costs? When we walk, read, drive, or cook, it’s rarely done in isolation. Instead, these hobbies are often done alongside some kind of audio guide

This. A thousand times this.
Since I stepped down as Dean, I have remembered how much I love the quiet.

Finished up my 2025 race season today with the Lost Valley 25km trail race, a point-to-point run on the Iroquoia section of the Bruce Trail. A greyish day but there were still some beautiful views.
