This moment demands serious leadership and coming together to deliver for Canadians.

We're excited to welcome Matt Jeneroux as he joins Mark Carney and our new Liberal team in that work — building a stronger and more secure future for Edmonton Riverbend and all Canadians.

Explain to me how the CRA comes after me for a few hundred dollars when they are complicit in losing hundreds of millions of our tax dollars? And still Healthcare, infrastructure and services are crumbling! Source: CBC

@NBAonNBC So they already know who will be an all star? What if more international players are deserving? Will they snub players to ensure 2/3 are American?

Great piece! Welcome BI! Let's get this season started already. #torontoraptors https://t.co/Z8YsHFYF6h

I watched Barnes sign autographs for 10+ min in Vancouver -- from behind the Raptors bench...along the baseline...all the way to almost mid-court opposite the Raps bench. Many players signed but nobody put in the time that Scottie did. Pretty impressive. Fans are fired up here.

@PensareBBall Get your Dicks out! Let's go Raps!

[Jamie @iamjamieread]

@PensareBBall Great to hear. Keep it up man! This season, a lot of new clicks are coming for smart coverage of a #Raptors team that has laid dormant in the eyes of NBA fandom. And yours is the smartest coverage there is on the topic IMO.

@keefe_cheung @PensareBBall True. But knowing that OG was an awkward shy brute, that Pascal was a shot-less, spinning newb to basketball, and that Fred was an Oompa Loompa with a chip in his shoulder before joining the @Raptors, think of the development of this young team in the Raps' system!

@william_lou Serious question: is it not a form of anticompetition or monopoly that MLSE is able to control all of Toronto's major sports teams? Owned by another oligopoly that controls the broadcast rights? Also the fact that none of the teams are winners... But still hold fans ransom.

If the US splits, who keeps the greenback and who gets Bitcoin?

[Elastos @ElastosInfo]

The world’s waking up to what 21M truly means. Finite supply, predictable issuance. ✨

Elastos was built with that same principle. A maximum of 28.22M coins merged-mined with Bitcoin.

📢 Scarcity should not be optional.

Last night I got to sit with a number of very prominent people and talk about all the innovation we are building. It’s clear many are looking for both investments and monetisation toolsets.

My message on Elastos is simple which is ELA is merge-mined with Bitcoin and founded by Microsoft pioneer from the 90s - we can then talk more about why it’s important and how it works.

Today is the first official Bitcoin conference day (yest was industry day), interviews and connections lined up, it will be a great day!

ELA also up, new demand and only reasons to buy when it’s merge-mined with Bitcoin since 2018, secures ~44.58% of BTC’s hashrate (366 EH/s, worth ~$7.74B/year.

This as a value investment makes it a heavily undervalued asset, with a security cost basis of $274 per ELA vs. current price ~$1.76 (May 2025), a 99% discount!

New day new grind, let’s get it!

@arrington A self-sovereign decentralized ID (DID) with a one-time verifiable proof by a government issuer is all you need for security and tracking. KYC is needed to make sure you're paying your taxes.

@PensareBBall With my tinfoil hat on, I think the last part of the Luca/Cooper deal, which could play out over the summer, is announcing the move from Dallas to Las Vegas. And this wasn't cooked up just for ratings, but also because gambling became allowed. Follow the $$$.
