The pervasive narrative that we do not, can not, will not wish for each other to succeed is false. And archaic. It is restrictive to any forward momentum. And I’m not tryna stay put. When given the opportunity we show up – without hesitation – to praise and laugh and applaud and rejoice. We stand in awe of one other. We roar. Every single time. Thank you @longines, @thekitca, @tiff_net and @overcat_pr for giving us opportunity after opportunity. Thank you all for coming, for your vulnerability and your power and for reinforcing our actual story. Vulnerability is contagious. #timetowatchusfly #longines #thekit #tiff

One year ago, a first-time feature Director, sent me a lovely video message inviting me to be in her first feature. Two days ago, the film premiered at @tiff_net to a standing ovation and a mountain of praise. Grateful to have experienced the innate magic and power and grace of Indigenous creators like @msevathomas. Grateful to be surrounded by Indigenous, female department heads. Grateful to have @shawnydoyle as the Bonnie to my Clyde…yet again. Star Slade steals the entire film. I’m overwhelmingly proud. @nikamadisonfilm @tiff_net Congratulations, @tyleraustinlevine @jenniferpodemski @bgailmaurice @dcook022 @angebarboliemua @lyndsayreader_costumes

Saturday was a dream. I look forward to the @artistsforpeace gala every year during tiff, but not once imagined that I would be honoured. Congratulations APJ & @natashankpr on 17 successful, critical, wildly impressive years. Thank you Ann Dowd for lending your voice and @danikindofficial for your presence. Thank you to @katherinealexanderdaniels and the APJ Board for this stunning recognition, but most importantly for your years of love and labour. “I just so happened to be born in the right country at the right time, with unlimited access to education, clean water, stable healthcare, and economic stability – not only did I have a village, but my village had a village. That privilege comes with a responsibility. To me, helping others is simply my practical and moral responsibility. We cannot take what we have for granted; we must work hard to create a level playing field for the children of Haiti. That is what we are here to do tonight.” One hundred percent of the staggering $750,000 raised Saturday will go directly to support education and community-led initiatives in Haiti. Very few organizations can claim that kind of accountability. Follow @artistsforpeace for more. @entertainmentweekly @artistsforpeace @aircanada @audicanada @2fifteenliving @138yorkville
