@guyfelicella I've seen plenty of studies that show that UBI is actually LESS expensive than the patchwork off support systems we currently have (when taking all factors into account). I'm all for it, and would be perfectly fine to have "my share" fully clawed back (e.g. income tested)

@SensFanNL I hope that's the last time he's ever on NHL ice. Good riddance!

[Toivy @marktoivanen]

@SensFanNL I was hoping he'd get lit up big time tonight again. Couldn't have happened to a bigger jack-donkey!

@guyfelicella Dollars to doughnuts the local ones taste a whole lot better!

@brandonpiller1 Have flowers delivered to her hotel room while she's at breakfast tomorrow morning. Was suggested to me and the Mrs LOVED the surprise. The hotel staff should be more than happy to help make it happen

@jasonyork33 Except in net. Why couldn't the Sens have faced a sieve in Carolina... This series would be over if Carolina's goaltending was halfway between what they've gotten and what Ottawa faced...

@CanadianCoffey I'd LOVE to see Wab run (and become) Prime Minister!

@TinaYazdani I guess this year's reno at Ford cottage is a steam bath? And he's gonna use it frequently over the next 5 months....

@raghu_venugopal @CelticAshes And spreading joy and positivity is always welcome here. I'm no Habs fan but these two deserve positive vibes!

[Toivy @marktoivanen]

@BollywoodBoyz Spread the joy! Haters are going to hate no matter what you're doing. I'm no Habs fan but kudos to you both!

@jillpromoli @fordnation Sadly we all know it'll be SSDP (Same S#17 Different Person). Just like when Lecce was shuffled out. I wish we didn't have to wait until the next election to get rid of these clowns

Let’s finally put this tired MAGA fantasy to rest:

the U.S. has never militarily protected Canada — not once, not ever.

Canada has never been invaded by a foreign power in modern history, and we have certainly never asked the U.S. to ride in like some self-appointed saviour.

In fact, the only time American troops showed up on our soil in force was during the War of 1812 (Confederation wasn't even born yet) — when they tried to invade and conquer us and got their asses handed to them by a militia, First Nations warriors, and British forces.

The colonies defended themselves.

And, furthermore to facts, NORAD is a joint defense partnership, NOT American charity.

Yet the MAGA base keeps repeating this crap that “if it wasn’t for us, Canada would be gone.”

No. We never begged for your protection, we never needed it, and we sure as hell don’t owe you for a fantasy scenario that exists only in your heads.

Canada stands on its own.

Always has.

@tylerwatt They also need to end nursing agencies that cost multiple times more than just hiring the correct amount of nurses in the first place. Then they can use the "saved" moneys to pay nurses what they're actually worth so that more join the profession and burnout use avoided.

@merry123459 Only one I don't have on the list is owning an encyclopedia. My grandparents did but my parents had us use the ones at the library when we needed them. They also had other (more targeted) reference books.
