As a retired Toronto Police Officer and Prostate Cancer Survivor, I understand exactly where you’re coming from, both with the important issues of Surviving Cancer and the less important concerns of the mob known as BLM. I followed, Listened & Read your published articles when you were with CFRB, totally enjoyed your thoughts and outlooks and applauded the Stand You took on so many topics! I wish you Well, continued success and most importantly, Good Health, as you traverse this road called Life!

To know one's self is a gift you give yourself, and it never comes wrapped in fancy paper with a big red ribbon. Glad you are here to tell this story.

First, I am glad you're ok, both physically and spiritually. Second, I wish there were more people like you who actually respect other people's opinions and is willing to debate different view points in a civil fashion. Keep up the good work.

My sincere best wishes to you Jamil. I have received radiation and chemotherapy for two different cancers but nothing as severe as your cancer and not at a young age like you. At 30, I can only imagine how devastating the diagnosis must have been.

Thank you! I had lymphoma at 20 and it was a little too early for me to wrap my head around it in any constructive way. But this piece is really inspiring- I would love to use my confrontation with death to be be better at doing what needs to be done in the world. Godspeed!!
