The end of Hockey Night in Canada is more than just the end of a television show. Hockey Night in Canada was something uniquely Canadian. Now it is gone. A piece of our cultural tapestry now in the dustbin of history. youtube.com/shorts/b7088...

The cheapest tickets for tonight’s Finals game are well past $5,000. The price gouging doesn’t end there. It costs over $16 for a 16-oz beer at Madison Square Garden — more than twice the citywide average. But there’s a way states and cities can crack down. Watch.

SPOTTED in rural Tennessee: “Iran your gas prices up” sticker⛽️

The Boba Fett segment of The Star Wars Holiday Special is considered the only redeeming part of that dumpster fire.

President Obama: “We pulled it off without firing a missile. We got 97% of their enriched uranium out. There’s no dispute that it worked and we didn’t have to kill a whole bunch of people or shut down the Strait of Hormuz.”

On Jan. 9, 1967, the Confederation Train began its journey. For the next 12 months, it travelled Canada. In each car of the train was a museum dedicated to our history. The horn even played the opening notes of O Canada. This is the story of the train. 📸 Jim Brown 🧵 1/10

I hope this sets a precedent that transphobic policymakers choke on. www.ctvnews.ca/edmonton/art...

🚨NEW: "The Late Show with Stephen Colbert" just dropped its first response to ABC, FCC chair, and Disney firing Jimmy Kimmel. Trump ain't sleeping tonight. 🤣 This is a must-watch. 🔥

Hoping that calmer heads prevail. As for me, if ABC and Disney don't get a spine in the next week, #Disney+ will be gone from my household. I love the service and it is a constant for family movie night, but I won't tolerate authoritarianism antics.

Why do all dictators target comedians? Because comedians can take a serious issue & distill it into a couple of simple sentences with a funny punchline. Comedians can puncture the dictator’s armour with satire. Humour is subversive. I support Colbert & Kimmel.

I'm just glad I live in Canada. Hmmm, yup. That's all I need to say.

The “problem” with vaccines? They so effective at preventing deaths that they create generations of people that question whether disease was a problem in the first place because they have never experienced the horrors of a world without vaccines.

Not to add to the discourse, but… It’s ‘toe the line,’ not ‘tow the line.’ It’s ‘free rein,’ and not ‘free reign.’ It’s ‘eke out,’ not ‘eek out.’ It’s ‘sleight of hand,’ not ‘slight of hand.’ It's ‘Anchors aweigh,’ and not ‘Anchor's away!’

Holy Moley, more of this, please! Nenshi slaps down True North reporter with an excellent response.

I guess Canada has no reason not to reinstate the Digital Services Tax then. #cdnpoli

Apparently todays the 30th anniversary of my debut album! RS

NEW: ALA denounces yesterday's unlawful firing of Dr. Shira Perlmutter, the Register of Copyrights at the Library of Congress. Dr. Perlmutter has led the US Copyright Office with integrity, intelligence and an understanding of intellectual property issues. 1/2

Here's what motivated the standoff. My understanding is that DOGE is trying to get in to do what they do...but have been blocked thus far (again, from a personal contact who works there). www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

Rogers celebrates 20 years of higher than expected call volumes

How can I read a news story like this and not think of the 1930s?

when he sends citizens to foreign concentration camps, it’s no longer a slide to authoritarianism—it’s full blown fascism! 😔 this is not an administration, it’s a criminal regime in a hostile takeover of 🇺🇸 democracy. #FightFascism #TraitorTrump #DefendLiberty 🔔

Gotta start the day right.

This speaks volumes: Yale professors, Timothy Snyder, a historian of totalitarianism and the author of "On Tyranny," and Jason Stanley, a philosopher and the author of "How Fascism Works", move to Canada. leiterreports.typepad.com/blog/2025/03... munkschool.utoronto.ca/person/timot...
