Billy, this is Claude Giroux. He is one of the best faceoff guys in hockey and would do anything for his team, including taking a hometown discount. His only defect is that his cars keep getting stolen.

Bezos destroying the post opinion pages is just another reminder: Conservatives think free speech is when they can say what they want and when you can say what they want.
One of my neighbours put this up on their lawn. Civic virtue signalling! (extremely complimentary)
My favorite part of the Bezos letter is when he says "we must commit ourselves to freedom by only printing words I personally wish to see"

No matter how hard Republicans and the Trump Administration try, trans people cannot be erased.
Hate and division must never be tolerated.
Pierre Poilievre being typically grating in a letter to Mark Carney, with a Tourettes-like repetition of 'Trudeau'
Eleven 'Trudeaus' in eight sentences, and the year wrong. I have some hope that Canadians will decide they just can't face listening to this whiny creep for four years.
This isnβt just a moronic lie.
Itβs more than an insult against an ally.
Trump is using disinformation to justify applying unwarranted & hugely mutually damaging tariffs as a tactic to try to force an ally into giving up its sovereignty.
Itβs a hostile takeover attempt. Or overt economic warfare.
Unbelievably petty! The Spanish language version of the White House website was deleted after the inauguration yesterday.
Look what happens when you hit the βgo homeβ button!
I am devastated to find out that a man was found frozen to death yesterday morning on Elgin Street. This is the exact scenario that the city has been working hard to prevent, but this failure is on all of us.
I really donβt know how she deals with it - theyβve been harassing her for so long!
So sad Iβm missing tonightβs game - Iβve been a fan of Chabbyβs since he first made the team. I couldnβt make it tonight since my dad was rushed to hospital & ended up needing emergency open heart surgery. π’ Iβll be checking for one on FB Marketplace in the next few daysπ€π»

π¦ WELCOME TO BLUESKY! I recommend exploring our custom feeds, which are a little like hashtags but more interesting. We have them for academic and professional subjects, sports, cities, hobbies (e.g., gardening, baking), and many more. Search them in the sidebar under Feeds. π§΅
Site now recovered
Btw β Today will get interesting! If the site goes down, maybe grab a soda, pet the kitty. Weβll hit it with a wrench as fast as we can
Itβs not typically slow, itβs most likely due to the overwhelming number of new users coming over from over *there*. I suggest you follow the Bluesky account, they have a bunch of general info, planned improvements etc. Glad to see you here - I would miss your E & V updates so much! π
