Yeah, everyone up here has just stopped buying US - the aisles have just been replaced with local. They brought pre-purchased product back on shelves and Jim Beam/JD ain't moving.

LCBO is one of the biggest single importers on the planet, not surprised it's hurting the bourbon distilleries.

He lives in my mid-sized Canadian city now and I absolutely did a double take at the local footy game when they went “here to announce the squads, Dominik Diamond!”

I was lucky enough to see The Raid in theaters in Toronto at TIFF Midnight Madness, and experienced a full standing ovation from the crowd after the 2-on-1 Mad Dog fight had concluded

I’ve got to ask which one now, because my kids love that and as a Canadianized Brit with an accent all over the place that’s one of the few books that’s just flowed perfectly

Was lucky enough to see it at TIFF during their midnight madness series, and you could not have had a more pumped crowd. Like standing ovations after the 2v1 Mad Dog fight.

Also worth checking out The Night Comes For Us on Netflix - way more gonzo but has a lot of overlap

I probably listen to the last 5 tracks of Fantastic Planet like once a month - what an incredible sequence of tracks.
Rest of album / discog rocks too
