The Vegas Golden Knights are the most hated NHL team in America, with 11 states naming them as their top "villain" team, according to a new Rotowire study.
Their rapid success, 2023 Stanley Cup win, and extremely attractive fan base appear to have fueled the backlash.
@unusual_whales Can't support smoking but government is gonna face so much resistance from the reserves and smuggling from the American border doing this. Fentanyl is also illegal but we dont seem to be winning that battle.
A Brazilian woman prayed to a figurine of Saint Anthony for years, only to discover it was an action figure of the elf Elrond from the "Lord of the Rings" films.
I don’t know who needs to know this, but the Olympic pairs skaters from Georgia just performed a Mortal Kombat themed gala skate and ended it with a fatality.
I’m a landlord. I know, everyone hates landlords. But I have a tenant, Sarah, who has been with me for five years. She’s never late. Last month, she called me sobbing because she found a stray kitten in the rain, but my lease says "No Pets."
I went over there, intending to be firm. I saw her—a lonely woman working two jobs—holding that tiny ball of fur, and I saw her eyes. She wasn't just asking for a cat; she was asking for a reason to come home.
"I don't see a cat," I told her, looking straight at the kitten on the sofa. "I see a very small, very quiet... decorative pillow. And my lease says nothing against pillows." I lowered her rent by $50 "for maintenance" so she could afford the vet. Being a "good businessman" doesn't mean you have to stop being a human.
Think food inflation in Canada is high? You haven’t seen anything yet.
New food inflation data will be released Tuesday, February 17. Early signals suggest January’s rate could come in around 6.2% — a significant acceleration.
Meanwhile, in the United States, despite tariff pressures and ongoing trade tensions, food inflation eased to 2.9%, down from 3.1% in January.
That gap matters.
Canada’s food inflation problem isn’t cyclical — it’s structural. And until we address the policy choices and market rigidities driving costs through the system, price pressures will persist.
Brace yourselves.
