ICYMI this week ...

A weekly round-up of the headlines fetures on the Daily News podcast

Jun 01, 2025

Objectively, my week has been nuts. The way that everything culminates at the end of the school year is completely nuts. Non-stop. My one kid is going from singing for a telethon to singing a Mass at the basilica in like 18 hours. Maybe less. July should feel pretty good after this May. And who knows that June will bring?

I know that I’m off to St. John’s this week, which I’m very much looking forward to. I probably wont have time to write anything so it’ll be silence from me in your inboxes.

But, until then, here are the headlines that I featured this week on the Daily News podcast.

British Columbia
