Amazing luck today. Just got these photos on the way home. My wife and I were both so thrilled and excited to see this majestic owl. Our 2nd time lucky enough to see. Just stayed and enjoyed.

The fast rebuild can be done: the 16 players picked by the Bruins from 2014 to 2016 who played in the NHL have amassed nearly 5,000 games played -- and they missed badly in the 2015 draft!

Canucks: The fast rebuild can be done, but watch out
To get the reset right, you can't miss in the draft like the Bruins did in 2015

Ridiculous story. What a way to treat your players.

the canucks getting better after the hughes trade only to finish the season just outside the playoffs with a mid round draft pick is the ideal outcome because there is nothing more condemning than mediocrity

These comments are actionable in virtually every democracy outside the US, and hell, might even be investigated in the US as unlawful incitement to violence. Reducing them to "anti-immigration tweets" as Goodwin does only reveals his own immorality.
Matthew Goodwin objects to prosecuting this: ‘I think it’s time for the British to gang together, hit the streets and start the slaughter. Violence and murder is the only way now. Start off burning every migrant hotel then head off to MPs’ houses and Parliament, we need to take over by FORCE.’

I don't need to repeat after you. I very purposefully wrote "helping to further destroy". I know what the province is doing. But the federal immigration policy is exacerbating a provincially-created crisis.

Yeah, as I've been saying, we overcompensated because the media ran with the stupid 'GDP per capita' and 'immigrants hurt housing' framing. This is long-run damage to the economy by short-term thinking, feeding xenophobia, and helping to further destroy Canada's world class universities.

And not only did Carney buy into the scapegoating, he adopted Nigel Farage's language in the budget to do so.
(And the premiers who helped cause the situation continue to get away with it scot-free).
