Passionately opinionated about a lot of things, but I tend to keep most of them to myself. There are enough judgemental folk out there already.

A family from Brampton thought they’d found the perfect shortcut, dumping a mountain of household trash in a quiet Ontario cornfield. They thought they were being slick—until they realized they’d left behind shipping labels with their full address printed right on them.

The farmer who discovered the mess wasn’t looking for a legal battle; he preferred a more personal delivery. He loaded their garbage into his tractor’s front-end loader and drove straight to their suburban driveway.

When he knocked, a woman answered and quickly tried to play it cool, denying she was the person named on the packages. But the plan fell apart when a younger girl stepped to the door. The farmer pointed to a discarded toy in the pile and asked, “Is that your stuffed animal?”

The girl’s honest nod was all the confirmation he needed. Out of the kindness of his heart, the farmer tipped the loader, returning every bit of the family’s junk right onto their doorstep.

The lesson is clear: you can try to outsmart a farmer, but you’ll never outwork one. 🚜 Don’t mess with the people who feed you!

@Vik_only @CelticAshes He will be going to court. Stunt driving is an arrestable offence, automatic roadside suspension 30 days, and vehicle impoundment. Hopefully the prosecutor goes for more!

Newsom on Trump's military parade: "It's a vulgar display. It's the kind of thing you see with Kim Jong Un, you see it with Putin, you see it with dictators around the world that are weak ... Weakness masquerading as strength ... that's about as small as it gets ... that's Donald Trump."

Trump reportedly told Justin Trudeau he does not believe the border between the US and Canada is “valid” and he wants to “revise” it.

Trump has also said he wants to bring Canada to its knees by driving them into economic ruin.

[SENS TALK @senstalk_]

According to @BrownRecord, #Sens owner Michael Andlauer has sold the Brantford Bulldogs to a developer in the GTA (rumour I’m hearing is it could be Stuart Hyman, Zach Hyman’s dad).

It’s hard to believe that this sale and a potential Belleville Senators relocation are not connected to one another.

Andlauer did say last March that he was committed to keeping the Bulldogs in Brantford, so do keep that in mind. But he’s always been committed to putting a hockey team in Hamilton and this sale could signal that he’s ready to make that happen.
