Was going to enter the draw for #WorldCup tickets. Apparently the cheapest ticket to see Canada in Toronto in the group stages is $1300.
An absolute racket. No thanks, not under any condition. Burn it all down to the ground. Oh and investigate FIFA's financials.

Heads up, Toronto's air quality is the second worst in the world right now. Minimize time outside, put on air filters if you have them and consider wearing an N95 if you do have to go out, especially if you are in a high-risk group for PM2.5 exposure.

I tactically voted for the incumbent Liberal candidate in my riding. Would have also voted NDP or Green if it had been the tactical vote. Maybe 65 people in lines in the polling station. Great to see!

The government of Canada thinks it's riskier to travel to the U.K. right now than the U.S.
Uh, I think it needs updating.

Meanwhile, I can remember Man United fans chirping Newcastle that they were a "small club" just a year or so ago. And...well. Only one of these clubs is a wreck and it isn't the one in the North East
