1. A parking thread. Are you heading to Port Stanley this summer? There are some new parking rules you should know about. Fees have kicked in at more lots and if you get nailed by a ticket, it'll cost you more. #ldnont

2. You'll have to pay at all of these municipal lots now.
3. And come August 1st, if you get a ticket, it'll cost a whole lost more.
4. The @PortStanleyBIA's Michelle Graham isn't happy with the changes. She says businesses are worried "people will just be dumping their cars on the main street not allowing for any other people from out of town to park there to shop." #ldnont
5. We'll get a parking update with the Mayor of @MunCentralElgin, Sally Martyn at 7:35. #ldnont

2. Then this week, @STPSmedia announced 16 more charges in relation to 10 victims. They include voyeurism, making child pornography + possession of child pornography. We spoke to an alleged victim. She says she was secretly filmed while at a recording studio.
3. "I want to take something horrible that's happened to me + make it into something powerful where it gets out there that it's more common than people are talking about. Women + girls are not safe in the music industry."

2. This is Dawn Redskey. Her one-year-old son, Robin Redskye-McKinstry goes to the daycare. The first thing Dawn noticed when she walked into the Nshwaasnangong Child Care and Family Centre was the smell of smudge in the air. Image
3. "I almost cried the first time I smelled it. I thought, 'Oh my gosh. It just feels so nice to be able to bring my baby into this atmosphere where this is encouraged. He gets to be around people that understand where he's from and are able to help kindle that identity."

1. Yesterday, we aired a story about a woman who collects human skulls. Many of you were troubled by the story, including @cwilliamg. He says overwhelmingly, the human remains that are bought + sold online are Indigenous. Image
2. The practice of buying and selling remains suggests that Indigenous people, "are still for and worth putting on display and it continues to dehumanize us as people," said Cody Groat, who is Mohawk from Six Nations of the Grand River. @westernuHistory
3. As an example of where people buy this stuff, the website for the Skull Store in Toronto includes a section called, 'Human Products' + features skulls, a skeleton, fragments of a preserved human brain and a fetus.

1. According to @djjohnso, 180 people died homeless in Toronto in 2021. @SanctuaryTO has never added more names to the Homeless Memorial in one year. The community is facing compounding grief, says outreach worker, @lorrainelamchop. This is Daisy Warriner, 24. She died in Nov.
2. Daisy's aunt + grandma raised her. Stephanie, her birth mom, had struggled + couldn't care for her. “We are a story of generational system failures," said aunt Denise Warriner. Stephanie died last year. That story is also tragic. Here's Daisy + her mom

3. Daisy struggled w/ drugs + was in + out of jail for petty crime. On Nov. 28, she was found dead in her room in a hotel shelter. She had overdosed. A tragic end, just like her mom. Her aunt Denise (below) had tried for years to get Daisy help. The system didn't work, she says.

1. Today on @metromorning, two takes on omicron. One from @COVIDSciOntario's Dr. Peter Juni. Another from @DrJacobsRad, a radiologist @HRHospital. One is worried hospitals will soon be overwhelmed. The other is not. Here's a little more about that. ImageImage
2. “In the next few days, we will start to see an uptick in patients admitted for Omicron infections," said Juni. Plus, protection against the virus for those with two-doses is waning, he warned. (However, note: protection against hospitalizations remains relatively steady.) Image
3. That last footnote is likely why
@DrJacobsRad is optimistic. If you haven't read his thread, check it out here:
