Watching the leadup to the #CanWNT game in the #SheBelievesCup. As a ⚽️ fan, I am really proud of the role of #ForgeFC and the #CPL getting #MackenzieBarwell front and centre on #OneSoccer, beside Kristian Jack.

Mac has talent and drive. She had 2 great seasons with the #CanPL squad as the in-game talent, as well as great sideline interviews and of course her #BehindTheBeard sitdowns with Bobby Smyrniotis, as a #McMasterU undergrad. She also went to #MilanCortina at the Winter university games in 2025.

#CanPL provides training grounds for not just athletes and coaches in #Canada but media and other support areas. Physios in training get exposed in placements (under supervision) in professional sport.

This is what you should know: electric and hybrid cars will not save the world if we do not change our deeply ingrained habits of substituting high #mobility for poor #accessibility.

Transitioning to #electric #bicycles, electric #transit, and high accessibility development patterns is where we should be putting our money. But that would require social science research and alas that is not where the money is.
