@GlobeBobRyan He’s the only defence man to ever win the Art Ross. He did it twice. In 1976, he was the MVP in the Canada Cup essentially the best player in the world . He did that on one leg. He changed the game.

Gretzky was a great offensive machine. That’s undeniable. Orr was an unparalleled two-way player whose career was cut short by injury. Orr was a better PLAYER.

@canucksaz Nope. Definitely heard it in Toronto, but that may be because we’re just grateful that the bus comes at all.

In 1964, Canadians submitted 3,541 proposals to the parliamentary committee tasked to pick a new national flag. Honestly, I think we should have picked Keith Quasena's bold depiction of our country's fiercest and most bloodthirsty predator.

I’m a populist about many things, but I truly believe that unrepentant snobbery is the only way forward now in the arts.

I average about 12 likes and 200 impressions when I post my bird photos. But I just really like birds, so I share them anyways. This is a mountain bluebird, one of the prettiest birds in North America. This is the only one I've ever seen in Utah.

@SVG__Collection I cannot think of a better American composer. Some as good, maybe, but none better.

Duke Ellington preferred calling his work “American music” rather than jazz. He saw it as too limiting a label for what he was creating.

Dale Earnhardt was the most redneck redneck to ever redneck and he took the confederate flag off his car because his Black housekeeper said she didn’t want to see it. It’s really not that hard to not be an asshole.

@bruce_arthur … you don’t have the mineral rights anymore. That means no oil revenue. Seeing as you only seem to have the power to dig wealth out of the ground instead of actually creating it, you’re fucked. So, enjoy that. Good luck!

@bruce_arthur 4. The NRTA by which you Alberta got or claims to have mineral rights? About that … see, the NRTA is an agreement. With Canada. Now follow along here … if one party resiles from an agreement, it no longer binds either party. So … 3/X
