Ferland's lack of penalties remains one of the most amazing stats out there. His streak is made even better by it being bookended by an ejection of all things

@PremierScottMoe lol CER compliant natural gas technology does not exist. We’re talking about combined cycle natural gas. Pretty normal stuff.

No one is proposing that especially as of this morning, no one knows what the CER is 🤷🏻‍♀️

The name Roughriders was born on May 5, 1924 — 102 years ago today. The name change was made during the Regina Rugby Club’s annual general meeting. The franchise was known as the Regina Roughriders until May 31, 1946, when the Saskatchewan label was applied.

On April 8, 1954, Trans-Canada Air Lines Flight 9 collided with a RCAF Harvard Mark II in the sky above Moose Jaw, Saskatchewan.
The crash killed 36 people in the air and one person on the ground.
It led to major changes in Canada's aviation industry.
This is the story.

Scott Moe announced a new school for his hometown of Shellbrook in his bad news budget.

There were more than 200 schools in 103 Saskatchewan communities in worse shape.

This decision stinks. If there really is nothing to hide, I call on Scott Moe to publicly release all government documents behind the school capital decisions.

People deserve transparency — they deserve a Premier that will represent all Saskatchewan people.

It’s time for change.

This is Rome's most famous crime scene

Today, March 15, marks the day sixty men stabbed the most powerful person on earth and accidentally destroyed the very thing they were trying to save. The lesson he died for is one the world still hasn't learned...

In 44 BC, Julius Caesar was proclaimed dictator for life. He had ended a civil war, conquered Gaul, and remade Rome in his image. The poor loved him. The soldiers would die for him. But 60 senators called themselves the Liberators and plotted to kill him.

At their center stood Marcus Junius Brutus, descended from the very man who had founded the Republic. Yet it was Caesar’s mercy that helped restore Brutus’s political career. Caesar had spared his life after the civil war and allowed him to return to public office...

Brutus took the blade he sharpened on Caesar's generosity and drove it into his chest.

But before the blood, there was a warning.

According to Plutarch, a seer had told Caesar his life would be in danger on the Ides of March. On his way to the Senate that morning, Caesar spotted the man and said to him that the Ides had arrived. The seer's reply was: "Aye, they are come, but they are not gone."

Caesar was stabbed twenty-three times. He fell at the base of a statue of Pompey the Great — his oldest rival. When he saw Brutus among the assassins, he stopped fighting and sank to the ground...

Brutus had prepared a speech celebrating the restoration of the Republic. He was shocked to find outrage instead of praise. Caesar's death triggered civil wars. His heir Octavian crushed the conspirators at Philippi — Brutus and Cassius both died by their own swords — then became Emperor Augustus, terminating the Republic forever.

The Liberators had liberated no one.

They had a plan for the assassination and none for the morning after — certain of their own righteousness, blind to everything else. Every revolution led by people drunk on their own virtue ends the same way: not in the freedom they promised, but in the chaos they swore to prevent.

Power does not fall into a vacuum. It falls to whoever is most prepared to catch it. The men who killed Caesar set out to stop a dictator. They created an emperor instead. That is the oldest political truth there is, and the one we keep forgetting: removing a man changes nothing if you haven't changed the conditions that made him necessary in the first place.

Nixon resigned, rather than get impeached for ATTEMPTING to spy on his political opponents and trying to cover it up.

This week, Pam Bondi was caught red-handed ACTUALLY spying on members of congress.

It didn’t last a 48 hour news cycle.

We’ve come a long way.

There’s no single leader in the Developed World that survives that “Obama - Ape” post.

The UK PM would be gone before noon.

France, Germany, etc. All gone.

And the ones who’d survive - the likes of Putin & Xi - wouldn’t post it. Because they aren’t stupid.

Except Trump.

It’s pretty stunning here in Milan.

And the shopping is wild. Fashion.

And there’s pizza and coffee and really good food everywhere. Discipline about to be very much tested these Olympics.
