@DIIIHockeyNews Not a time zone issue?

@DIIIHockeyNews As an NCHA Parent, I would happily pay for a service that provided all of the games, in a single spot, with reliable sound and video quality. As long as the service has quality, no one should mind paying for it.

@ToddFuhrman What about if Bennett misses substantial time? 🤔

@511Ontario Just drove east on 401 and all of your signs as far west as Grafton still say the eastbound 401 is closed at exit 599. At 1:00pm - 13 hours after your reopening tweet. These signs have no value if people can’t trust them.

@MikePMoffatt Thanks Mike - I appreciate the response! Love reading your insights.

@MikePMoffatt I understand that it's not one of the largest cost components, but why is no one calling out that even *IF* builder margins haven't grown as a % (which I find surprising) that the same 12% is now earning almost almost $49,000+ profit on every home?

@DIIIHockeyNews So many great storylines to chase. Like how/when/whether the physicality we’re seeing in @thepwhlofficial starts to evolve the style of play and officiating in college hockey. Would be a great question to ask some coaches what they think is coming.

@jedi_lehman This could win awards for best Dad joke. But you still owe 25¢.

As the NCAA women's hockey season nears, it seems a fitting time to remind the world there are SEVEN men's NCAA D1 programs in Michigan and ZERO women's NCAA D1 programs in the state:

If you’re excited about the launch of @thepwhlofficial you’ve got to check out the extensive coverage by @TheHockeyNewsW. I’m pretty sure @IanKennedyCK hasn’t slept in a week with all the bylines that feature his name. Check out all the stories: https://t.co/7zDUs2eJI9

@IanKennedyCK @TheHockeyNews @TheHockeyNewsW This list seems to assume the focus will be on market expansion in year 1- but I think it's possible they focus on market solidification at first. I could see games in "nearby" smaller markets - Peterborough, Barrie, Niagara, Kingston - like the PWHPA OHL series last year...

@nobleloonlodge Thanks for everything you've done for the community - a lot of amazing work raising awareness of important issues, people, and community groups. Looking forward to seeing you around City Hall!

I’ve worked with a lot of politicians & political staff over the past 25 years.

I’ll tell you this: I’ve never met a political Chief of Staff who hasn’t been tied at the hip with the politician they serve. That’s the job - to do the bidding of the elected member.

The idea that Ryan Amato, the Minister of Housing’s Chief of Staff, led what would be a highly contentious and smarmy process in direct conflict with public policy by selecting land for removal from the Greenbelt - and acted independently in doing so - is beyond ridiculous.

It’s incredulous. Both the Premier and the Minister need to come clean.

Maybe Ontarians were not paying attention before. But we are paying attention now. #GreenbeltScandal

If you can walk up to the Prime Minister and scream expletives about your freedom directly in his face, you might just live in a free country fuckwads.

@MikePMoffatt While colleges and uni’s were aggressively increasing enrolment, I bet the number of new units of student housing they built over same period (direct or through partnerships) is minuscule. Do you think this is big enough to be a factor in the overall housing market in Ontario?

[Rob Emerson @RobEmerson]

@MikePMoffatt Oh wait - 22-23 domestic number is 162,357 - not 62,357. Missed the 1 hiding between the columns. 😁

[Rob Emerson @RobEmerson]

@MikePMoffatt If I’m reading this chart correctly, total college enrolment has dropped by ~38,000 over this period? Something seems off…
