Absolutely. Her apologies are particularly troubling. Probably my least favourite season because of this one team.
Yes! There have been plenty of toxic couples before but he is especially awful. It's when he's nasty and then she apologizes that I really want to turn it off.

Rebuilding a music program isn’t about trophies—it’s about trust, belonging, and long-term impact. Awards are nice, but they’re not the goal. The real work happens quietly, day by day. If you’re in it, keep going. You’re not alone, and what you’re doing matters.

If fear can organise, then so can courage. If division can spread, so can unity. If a small group can change the world, then let it be us. Let it be Canada, and let it be now, because good needs a movement too. ❤️🇨🇦

When Mike Myers wore his "Canada Is Not For Sale" t-shirt on SNL, he mouthed a secret code: "elbows up."
It's a reference to the great Gordie "Mr. Elbows" Howe who punished those that messed with his team.
You heard him Canada: elbows up.
If anyone asks why, tell them that Mike Myers sent you.

Gorgeous rendition of one of my favourites.
Occasionally a cover is just exceptional.
And this is absolutely exceptional!
It’s been around a while but I’ve only just come across it.
Watch and listen from start to finish.
