Good News Tuesday is for the days that don’t hand it to you. You crash your car in an unfamiliar province far from home, you come to, and there’s a Quebec hockey team around you pulling you out. June Johnson didn’t need Quebec to be kind to her on that particular Tuesday. It was anyway.

Canadian Olympic athletes are coming home after weeks of singular focus, returning to families and regular life all at once. Kyle Landy, Canada’s first competitive bodybuilder with Down syndrome, stepped on stage and competed, and that story is doing the heavy lifting for everyone whose Tuesday needed it. Neither of these things required the day to go well first.

Good news doesn’t report what happened. It reports where you looked. The stories are already there. You just have to turn around.
