You are aware that our current ticket to free healthcare is an easily reproduced piece of paper with no photo ID on it right? A glass of water can prevent you from going to urgent care or the emergency room if you happened to spill it on your card. This is a needed change, that incorporates it into the Alberta drivers license/ID card. There is no downside to this.
June is Men’s Mental Health Awareness Month.
Fellas (ladies too), please check in on each other every once in a while. A simple convo can go a long way. Time on this rock is short, and too many of us carry it alone.
Reach out. 💪🏼🤘🏼
@3rdAndJacks@TheFourthPeriod I see that I did write 4 nations originally, that’s my bad, I meant World Cup. Sorry for the confusion, but my point stands.
I’m not talking about men’s worlds, that’s IIHF. I’m also not talking about 4Nations because as you mentioned that was a one time thing and NHL only. I’m talking about the World Cup of Hockey which is a joint IIHF and NHL tournament that will also be played every 4 years, but opposite the Olympic Games. We will be getting country vs country best on best every 2 years. The NHL would be better served to have an eastern conference vs western conference all star game.
@3rdAndJacks@TheFourthPeriod Maybe if there weren’t already two other country on country tournaments, and if this tournament was 5 on 5 rather than a gimmick, I would agree with you. But we’re going to get sick of it before the next Olympics if we keep going like this.
@wyshynski 6 teams with Russia having their own team would make too much sense? The NHL allows Russian players, we know they’re from Russia, just give them a team.
I’m told that while Toronto has spoken with David Carle, that’s the extent of things. No formal interview has taken place. I’m told Carle has told the Leafs now is not the right time for him.
How incredibly devastating.
Canadians were told that Carney:
✅ Is the best negotiator against Trump
✅ Has the best resume lead the country
✅ Can lead us through turbulent times
✅ Elbows up against US tariffs
The reality:
😖 The only G7 country in a recession
😖 Household savings went down
😖 Food bank use at all-time highs
😖 Negotiated nothing with Trump
😖 Dropped all counter tariffs
😖 Created a Sovereign Debt Fund that will cost taxpayers $750 million per year
😖 Spent $200K on airplane food
😖 Biggest deficit in Canadian history (outside of COVID)
😖 24 hrs before GDP numbers dropped, told US that Canada can Make America Great Again
😖 Signs secret policing agreement with China
😖 Angers 14 of his MPs with 1 quitting
Canadians were lied to.
Manipulated.
The Prime Minister was boosted & promoted by China to win.
He holds almost all of his investments in the US.
Refuses to make a deal with the US & instead goes into the arms of China.
He has his Harvard degree & his PhD.
That’s what makes this even more catastrophic.
By every measure, Carney has failed.
@davehodge20 Surely you can understand the difference between an up and coming young team and a team who up until this season had made the playoffs for 8 or 9 straight seasons, right?
