Devastating news out of Hamilton. Crossing guards are on the front lines in the fight for safe streets. That job is truly terrifying. Distracted to contemptuous drivers, the full range of road violence on display all day, just so we can cross the street safely...

In the last month, the FBI has charged players from two different leagues for roles in sports-betting scandals.
Either legalized gambling is exposing corruption that’s always been there.
Or it’s creating it.
Either answer is terrible for sports.

Something worth noting: Rockstar is leaning HEAVILY on the excuse that the unionising employees were "leaking private company information"
They want people to assume this means game info or assets.
But I will bet you CASH MONEY this translates to:
'they were comparing salaries and work contracts"

So I think that’s what I’m grieving the most today. I’m not upset about a banner. Though that would have been sweet. I’m not mad about a lost parade or not getting a new hat that says CHAMPIONS across it. I’m grieving the sudden jarring loss of joy.

While we need to keep a weather eye focused on international trends, Ontario Canada's current covid risk level remains low. But the smart move remains the same too, get vaccinated for covid (and flu/RSV), the shots work to reduce illness severity.
