Better to have an umbrella and not need it than to need an umbrella and not have one.

A vibrant neon-lit sign for "Sam's Records and Entertainment" at night, featuring the bold "SAM" in red cursive script repeated across the top. Below, two oversized red vinyl records glow with white concentric grooves: the left labeled "THIS SAM'S ENTERTAINMENT" and the right "THAT'S SAM'S STYLE." Additional signs read "YES! THIS SAM RECORD MAN" and "THIS SAM RECORD IS," flanking the entrance to a dimly lit record store with mannequins, clothing racks, and glowing "OPEN" sign visible through glass doors and windows. The urban street scene is softly illuminated by streetlights, with a subtle watermark "Photo by Doug Finney."

Sam Sniderman was a Toronto icon.
His store, Sam the Record Man, was a landmark of the city. His company expanded across Canada and at one point had 140 locations.
This is the story of Sam Sniderman and his famous business.

Urgent reminder. With the extreme heat, we are asking everyone to please put out fresh water for wildlife. No food, just water. This small act can make a big difference for animals trying to survive the heat. Miigwich! πŸ¦πŸ¦ŠπŸ¦¨πŸ»πŸ¦ŒπŸ‡¨πŸ‡¦πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ

The black-and-white photo depicts John Turner, dressed in a formal suit and tie. He has neatly combed, light-colored hair and is looking slightly to the side with a gentle smile. The background is plain and dark, keeping the focus on his attire and expression.

On this day in 1929, John Turner was born in Richmond, England.
He served in Parliament from 1962 to 1976 and 1984 to 1993. In that time he served as Prime Minister (1984) and Leader of the Opposition (1984-1990).
Let's explore his life in pictures.

The photo is the cover of the first issue of "The Body Politic," a gay liberation newspaper, dated November-December 1971, priced at 25 cents. The cover features a black-and-white image of a group of people standing near a bus with a sign reading "Gay Rally Ottawa." The individuals are dressed in 1970s-style clothing, including coats and bell-bottom pants. The title "The Body Politic" is prominently displayed in large, stylized letters, with "gay liberation newspaper" written above it. The word "Charter" is partially visible on the bus. The publication is credited to Toronto.

When The Body Politic debuted in 1971, it was the first significant gay publication in Canadian history.
It played a critical role in the fight for LGBTQ rights for the next 16 years, while enduring harassment and police raids.
This is the story of The Body Politic.
