@MikeBartner@the_habitant I think he's been too deferential at the start. Still a kid, still in learning mode, not immediately confident and assertive. As he gets older, he gets over all that earlier and earlier each season.
@alexbierk Growing upwards is good urban planning, but only if that process is transparent. Right now council has been highjacked by a small coterie of reps who received large donations from developers. They will serve their donors, not the public.
@ForecasterEnten You idiots: it's not because of tariffs; it's because of the 51st state bullshit (and pundits like you joking about it). Tariffs will go away, but it will be generations before we forget the threat to our sovereignty.
@hockeyesque All I know about the show is what some grizzled old balladeer once wrote:
"Someone wants a contract, and someone wants a crumb,
Some will wear grease paint on Video Hits".
@nationalpost The Ford government rewrote the high school curriculum in the last five years. Are you saying that they are a Marxist government? But since you have no idea what Marxism is, I suppose the question is pointless.
@HabsChronicle The French Center Ice package is really cheap (about 60 bucks a season). That and Sportsnet have me covered all season. I may not even need Sportsnet (last night's game was on both).
@RichardCityNews @icksterv Ask Ford how a SmartServe employee (who is required to stop serving a customer who is too intoxicated) can do so when the customer can just reach into the fridge and grab another?
@David_Moscrop Here's what is really crazy: every licensed establishment has to deal with overdrinkers. That's skilled, difficult work. But every other licensed place doesn't have accessible shelves of alcohol. You will not be able to "cut someone off" without confronting them physically.
@zoewhittall I went there at the same time. WHS was the only English High School in Central Montreal. It was urban and diverse and welcomed every strata of society -- from old money to refugees.
@merry123459 Print media had two main assets -- their legacy brand and real estate. So they were all bought out by venture capitalists who slashed most of their workforce and sold off their real estate. So now newspapers are just ghost brands spewing propaganda.
@WaytowichNeil A small coterie of columnists have dominated Canadian punditry for several decades. Whatever insight they may have once had has been swallowed by their insider access and self-importance. They are nothing more than background noise, like an oldies radio station.
@BobBurnatt@hockeyesque Don't let the name fool you. Westmount High in the early 80s was one of the most diverse schools in the country. It was the only English-language high school in Central Montreal.
