Nothing says Valentine's Day in Winnipeg like some heart-shaped pizzas from Pizza Hotline with the Mrs. and the kids πŸ’˜πŸ•

The Winnipeg Wesmen are moving on to the Canada West MBB semis after beating Calgary, while the Bisons are done after losing to UBC last night.

I honestly thought this would be the year that the vet-laden Bison team would make a real run, but it was another early playoff exit for The Herd... πŸ¦¬πŸ€

But just think! Contracting out waste disposal has opened up economic opportunities for mega-yacht dealers!

I've eaten everything on that list and would do it again if they were served to me, but there are at least a dozen things on that list that I'd never actually ask for, haha

Rogers TV showed up for the game, too bad the Blues didn't. 8-1 Niverville... Ouch.

TV production was decent although the netting at the CRRC wasn't doing it any favours.

It’s peak winter in Winnipeg these days.

It's nice to see the MJHL back on local TV... Great work by the Niverville Nighthawks in pulling that off.

Remember when trump said he would destroy air travel in North America by decertifying every Canadian plane? And then we never heard anything about it?

If his brain wasn't turned to mashed potato, it would be a 5-alarms fire. Now no one remembers about it and it wasn't even 2 weeks ago.

The idea that there are still Jets fans left who don't think the team should be tanking is hard to process.

Every measly OTL point gets them farther away from the best possible outcome left for this season.

So I went to WPW/WSO Brawl at the Hall last night at Centennial Concert Hall. You wouldn't think that pro wrestling and symphony would mix, but they did.

Packed house, hot crowd, great music, awesome action. It was a show to remember. #Winnipeg

It is not exaggerating to say that the current incarnation of the Winnipeg Monarchs (est. 2020) may be the least successful junior hockey club in the world.

Probably time for a fresh start in a new place that appreciates them.

Went to a couple of local MJHL games on the weekend. Winnipeg Blues and Monarchs. Sad what became of the Blues -- the Monarchs have always been that way.

The kids are trying hard but just can't compete. No fans, no sponsors, just parents paying full freight for the kids to get stomped every night.

The only real surprise is that the US government isn't requiring its employees to attend screenings of this film. Maybe there is some mercy left in Washington?

Watching a bit of the Crowchild Classic tonight in Calgary... as a Bisons fan, it's hard not to be a little envious of the scene at the Saddledome for this one

Interesting CBC story that touches on Canada's digital dependence on the US. I would imagine that the EU has the best chance to develop a viable alternative to the US and Chinese big tech firms.

‼️ A genocide is taking place in Ukraine right now,committed by Russia
This is barely being discussed or covered in the Western press

I know that many Ukrainians living abroad follow me.I’m calling on international organizations&the Ukrainian diaspora to organize demonstrations in support of Ukraine
