He will say he will do it, but he won't. He always sides with big business.

The pendulum that is U.S. President Donald #Trump's stance on the war in Ukraine has swung firmly back toward Russian President Vladimir #Putin's view of things.

Thank goodness. They are saving their children from becoming gay by walking over those crosswalks. (Sarcastic).

It was wild in there. Amazing atmosphere. Everyone together for the Jays.
Way louder than in the 90s.

Electric night at game 6 at the Rogers centre as the #BlueJays take game 6, 6-2 and force game Monday.

Went to the game with the same buddy I went to game 6 of the ALCS in 1992 when we beat the As for our first AL pennant.

Sportsnet - here for hockey, except for Mondays, when they sell it to to Amazon. So they're not here for you on Mondays!

Just like that...
In Hughes and Gorton we trust!

Canadiens sign Lane Hutson to eight-year, US$70.8-million contract extension

It's a good deal for both sides, with the defenceman earning an average of US$8.85M per season under a contract that kicks in next season.

Bring your white trash (that means you/yourself)to the show!

Not nearly as many as will fill the streets of Toronto when the Jays win it.

Then people will come from across the nation for the parade. Canada's team is the Jays and we have way more fans than the Brewers, sorry.

Probably a good idea to have some under cover agents in that mob...

I also heard your roads are the worst in Canada.

If they're good enough for you, they're good enough for me, Dunk!

Champagne and blue air (wait for manager John Schneider) as the #BlueJays go wild in NYC after taking out the Yankees in 4. Go Jays!

I see the premiers are reaching the “Find Out” phase after all their fuckery around using S33 to attack your Charter Rights.

Canadian health care story:
Last week I went to get checked for a hernia. Yesterday I had an ultrasound. Today my dr phoned me and will refer me to a specialist.
He also said he read my file and I am overdue for a colonoscopy so he is going to refer that too.

All paid for with taxes.

Again, I feel like I'm in a cartoon DC super hero movie with the evil Lex Luthor types controlling the president. They have an evil plan, that's for sure

Ice sprays directly in the face of the lead pastor for First Presbyterian in Chicago. I believe this photo will go down in history.

Now this is how a true hockey hero acts. Thank you Hayley Wickenheiser for standing with public education against the MAGA MAPLE attack in Alberta.
