when satire is reality

The beatings will continue until elbows improve

It's wild to me that the City of Winnipeg spends public funds telling drivers to slow down but our leaders will do anything but actually reduce posted speeds. #winnipeg #wpgpoli

Hopefully Vegas expended all of their luck for the rest of the series on that goal

Gonna need an Ehlers OTGWG to erase Marner's night

Lol refs really didn't want to call one against Vegas but had to

Gonna need Carolina to stop unravelling in the 2nd periods of this series

Refs were already playing it loose with the rulebook with the amount of non-calls on late hits, hooks, and interferences - gonna have to be an obvious high-stick or puck-over-glass for CAR to get a power play now

Imagine staying on X for the sports...

“Whenever Oliveira doesn’t have the ball, all the other Bombers should be asking, ‘why doesn’t Oliveira have the ball?’”

11,000 x $3.45 = $37,950 temporary elimination of 14¢/litre MB gas tax in 2024 = $340,000,000 lost revenue (📰: www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...)

Tuned in just in time for the kid from Winnipeg to score the game winner

Like everyone predicted, it was going to be a battle between the two best wingers of the COVID Canadian Division

Imagine being a Jets fan and watching the star you let get away last summer dominate the playoffs, must be so aggravating.

🥲

It’s never too late to bring back Finnipeg

In what universe is this not grounds for immediate expulsion

Optimistic view: Doan has been in the worst markets (ARI) and the best (TOR) and could offer up some vision for WPG they haven’t thought to explore yet Pessimistic: him being given positions in mgmt have largely been to entice Matthews to ARI or babysit him (and Knies) in TOR

Of course it would be Finland and Switzerland putting on a defensive show - even during 3v3

We can*not* afford this. Austerity is how we lose the country. Austerity - more than any other force - drives working people into the arms of fascists: pluralistic.net/2026/04/12/a... 32/

He might have understood what a *fucking insane idea* it is to turn over our military to Palantir, a company that has fused itself with the Trump regime's domestic program of ethnic cleansing and its international program of extraterritorial aggression: www.thestar.com/politics/fed... 25/

Unfortunately, Mark Carney didn't get the memo from (checks notes) Mark Carney, and the very instant Trump arranged his face into his trademarked confused scowl, Carney dropped the tax, apologising profusely: www.canada.ca/en/departmen... 12/

But we shouldn't reject Carneyism due to the mere fact that Carney refuses to deliver Carneyism. The problem with Carneyism isn't Carneyism itself - the problem with Carneyism is *Mark Carney*. 9/

"Third Way" liberal politics involves *saying* things that working people love, but *doing* things that sociopathic plutocrats love. It works ...right up until voters notice that you're not *doing* the things. That realisation breeds cynicism and fury and paves the way for fascist strongmen. 2/

Maybe if I insult Scheifele again he can do something of worth in the meaningful games of this IIHF tournament

Canadian Conservatives and American Republicans on a Venn diagram is becoming an overlapping circle

Canada’s kid line and net front defence is getting embarrassed this 2nd period

I've never watched a player stand out amongst others in international competitions this frequently and with such prominence - and he's still a teenager playing amongst the best players in the world, and with generational players like Crosby. He's going to be more than phenomenal.

The bar was left so low by Pallister/Stefanson and Wharton/Goertzen - especially with Pallister himself directly interfering with what MPI could do with online services and favouring brokerages - yet Kinew and Wiebe can't seem to clear it by tossing away easy wins like these

Fun fact with this new tool to play with: WPG hasn't been at or above 50% in xGF% in their 7 playoff series since their 2018-19 series against the Blues

12 years ago Ed Tait interviewed a hockey blogger from Philly about fancy stats. That Free Press article wasn't online, so he asked if someone with access to the paper copy could take pictures and send them to him. I obliged. Eric's come a ways since then, I'd say :)

It should be Carolina vs. Colorado in the 2026 Stanley Cup Finals and I’m going to be irritated that it’s not for a bit

He looks so happy 🥲

Blue Bombers pre-season might be more interesting than the remainder of MTL vs CAR

Avi Lewis: "Canada is now living a new chapter of the shock doctrine story. It's also known as the political strategy of flooding the zone. The Carney government right now is pursuing an agenda of shocking scale and speed."

At this point, C-22 doesn’t need revisions, it needs to be thrown into the trash and restarted from scratch.

DID YOU KNOW...? Winnipeg had 22 homicides in 2025. In Winnipeg in 2025, you were statistically just as likely to be killed by traffic violence in as you were by a homicide. #winnipeg #wpgpoli

Part of being an AI user in creative works is convincing yourself that everyone ELSE uses it too, because otherwise you have to confront the reality that you're a faker and a fraud

Broadcasters selling games to other broadcasters is easy money, and money is what the CFL desperately needs - but it’s a short-term gain for long-term pain, because I don’t see how forcing people to purchase /yet another/ streaming service will increase overall viewership.

That game could’ve been an email

I hope Canadiens play Laine in their final game so he can at least get one playoff game against Ehlers

5/ There's an official petition to withdraw C-22, sponsored by NDP MP @jennykwan.bsky.social. More than 2,600 Canadians have signed. We need more. Add your name and ask others to do the same while it's still at committee: www.ourcommons.ca/petitions/en...

3/ It even opens the door to handing your data to Trump's America without a Canadian judge. The biggest civil liberties groups like @cancivlib.bsky.social, @openmedia.org, and @citizenlab.ca call this the most expansive invasion of our rights in modern history. thewalrus.ca/trump-wants-...

2/ C-22 drops the bar for police to "reasonable suspicion," the lowest threshold in Canadian criminal law, and forces your providers to keep a year of everyone's metadata. @mgeist.bsky.social calls it "a comprehensive surveillance map of virtually every Canadian."

1/ Right now, a bill called C-22 is moving through Parliament. It would let police pull information on who you talk to, when, and where, all without a warrant. It's at committee this week. 🧵

Very timely that Canadiens bring in Halák as the torchbearer to mark the end of Dobeš similar Cinderella run

Another reason to hate Vegas: the sweep means no more playoff hockey every night

This aged poorly

Converting to Catholicism so I can tell my bosses using unregulated AI is against my religion and I will sue them like that cake lady who hated gay people if they make me use it
