Trump says, "Lots of stupid people in this country running things."
Finally something I can agree with.

[Ozzy Osbourne @OzzyOsbourne]

It is with more sadness than mere words can convey that we have to report that our beloved Ozzy Osbourne has passed away this morning. He was with his family and surrounded by love.

We ask everyone to respect our family privacy at this time.

@CanadianTire You recently stopped carrying stump grinders, specifically the Detail K2 14in 14HP model. Are there any plans to offer this or other stump grinders in the future?

Delicious irony that without France, the United States would be- of all places- Canada.

#DYK vehicles with flashing green lights are responding volunteer firefighters? Flashing green lights mean pull over and yield as if it were an ambulance, fire truck, or police car to ensure a quick response time in the event of an emergency.

[Essa Fire Department @EssaFire]

During a fire emergency, every second counts. Blocked, concealed or difficult-to-access fire hydrants can impede fire services response.

You can help reduce the risk by keeping nearby fire hydrants accessible and clear of ice and snow.

Went to @McDonaldsCanada today and had the Big Arch. Heard great things, and I'm a fan of the name. If you rave about this burger, you've never had the Big Xtra or McPizza. Sucks to be young.

@Chucks_RH When did the corn accompanying a steak go from a warm half cob of corn to cold canned corn in a bowl?

[NHL Alumni @NHLAlumni]

The NHL Alumni Association is heartbroken to learn that Stanley Cup Champion and 2024 NHLAA ‘Keith Magnuson Man of the Year’ Award recipient, Ron Ellis, has passed away at the age of 79.

Ron first joined the @MapleLeafs roster undrafted in the 1963-64 season for one game. He would find himself joining the team full-time the following season, and would remain a Maple Leaf for the rest of his @NHL career.

Ellis became a key member of the team, and would ultimately earn the highest honour in hockey of winning the Stanley Cup in 1967. He played in 1,034 regular-season games, scoring 640 points over his career. He was also an intricate part of the famed Canadian team in the 1972 Summit Series.

After his playing days had ended, Ron found a new passion for helping his teammates and NHL Alumni Family. He was always available to lend an ear, his heart and help.

Ellis’s contributions philanthropically were global and impactful through his work with many charities and mental health initiatives. He dedicated his life, post hockey, to the Hockey Hall of Fame, and could be found each day smiling while he led guests through the great museum archives proudly.

In February of this year, Ron Ellis became a recipient of our ‘Keith Magnuson Man of the Year’ Award for these countless contributions to his community and the hockey world.

His family was so special to him and was his bright shining light.

We send our deepest condolences to Ron’s family, his wife Jan, son RJ, daughter-in-law Renata, friends, and former teammates. Please respect the family’s privacy during this difficult time.

[Maple Leafs Alumni @LeafsAlumni]

We are deeply saddened to learn of the passing of Ron Ellis.

Ron was one of only five Maple Leafs to skate in more than 1000 games for the club, while also scoring the fifth most goals in team history.

Our thoughts are with his family and loved ones.

How is it that Tim Horton’s now has pizza and @McDonalds won’t bring back the McPizza??

[Chris Manners @chrismanners21]

@SalmingandMe A friend got this puck years ago from his father. Neither one of us can decipher the autograph. Any ideas?

@TheFordFANatic @MapleLeafs My wife & I moved from town to 11 acres in the country. Now I can coach the @MapleLeafs from the couch without disturbing the neighbours!!

@StevieVanZandt Yes to everything you said. Plus, Ron has the best hair in hockey history.
