@slclax @ThomasDrance @TrevBeggs Don’t know enough of his ‘business practices’ to comment, or defend. Imagine writing a defamatory article of someone, designed to get clicks…only to pull it down, the walk into their house and ask for dinner… 😂 Amazing!

@McCarthySean @danielfoch @scottastevenson @grok Very interested to see this chart…

Sean McCarthy 🇨🇦🇺🇦🇮🇱@McCarthySean·25 Mar

@danielfoch @scottastevenson @grok show us a chart of cumulative Canadian M2 money supply, per capita, since 1960, alongside G7 countries, also per capita

Daniel Foch@danielfoch·25 Mar

Canada is undisputed world leader in money printing I posted @scottastevenson's tweet on instagram and someone complained that 2007 was a bad start date because it skews to make Canada look bad, so went back to 1968

Scott Stevenson@scottastevenson

Every G7 country hit the brakes on money printing. Except Canada.

@GardMackay @patersonjeff Blame the player all day long - he signed up for it! He wanted big bucks…held out for it. Remember, Van-media was calling him as, or even above Matthews value at the time. Bad contract…but who in god’s name thinks it’s ok to let the player off the hook…?

@patersonjeff Was just calling out your ‘anti-Toronto’ is all, you’re not alone in Van. Reminds me of those in 🇨🇦 who cheered for BOS vs VAN. 🤨 I’m a fan Jeff, always enjoy your content on Rink-Wide btw - keep it up. 👍

@McfarlaneKent okay. You send me a list of all the teams in all sports I can/can’t cheer for and I’ll be sure to adhere to it. 🫤

@patersonjeff @brenmidov C’mon, it’s about blindly cheering against Toronto teams. 🤷‍♂️ if Indifference - you wouldn’t have gone out of your way to note ‘didn’t mind so much’ to see the Jays miss multiple oops to win WC. Own it Jeff! 😆

English

Jeff Paterson@patersonjeff·23 Şub

@McfarlaneKent @brenmidov more like, no real rooting interest. Jays seemed like a likeable enough team, but not my team. So just enjoyed the drama of a seven-game epic. But certainly didn’t feel any pain at the outcome

After claims that @CurlingCanada had been double touching their stones for years, Sweden finally got what we wanted. And for all defending @TeamCanada claiming it is allowed, you are wrong: x.com/i/status/20226…

Devin Heroux@Devin_Heroux

JUST IN World Curling has sent an email to all the teams competing at the Olympics clarifying “proper release” of the stone. Also, for the remaining games umpires will be “observing the delivery” Here’s the full correspondence:

@echipiuk Who wants to let Eva know that it’s fully ok to re-touch the rock before the hog line…? 🧐 (you can’t re-touch after)

English

Eva Chipiuk, BSc, LLB, LLM@echipiuk·14 Şub

Canada in a nutshell: lie, cheat, and steal, then gaslight the people telling the truth. And we learned from the best. Those in positions of power and influence, including our Prime Minister and state broadcasters, have helped set the tone for this sad state of affairs. If this is the standard at the top, why would trust exist at the bottom? When leadership abandons principle, it becomes a national embarrassment and the country pays the price. But I suppose we can always rely on dirty tricks with our elbows up, all while pretending to be kind and inclusive. Seems to be the Canadian way, eh?

@CollinRugg You are allowed to double touch a rock before the hog line 🤦‍♂️ - a lot of folks suddenly interested in curling for the first time in their lives, and amazingly seem to know all the rules as well! 🧐

NEW: Canadian curler Marc Kennedy has a meltdown after Swedish curler Oskar Eriksson called him out for cheating. The outburst came after Eriksson accused Kennedy of double-touching the rock. Eriksson: You're touching the rock. Kennedy: Who is doing it? Eriksson: It has been a couple. Kennedy: I haven't done it once. You can f*ck off.

@MelissaLMRogers 😆 cheating…hilarious…like hooking a player and not getting a penalty. Official standing right there and didn’t rule on it, likely due to the fact that it has NO impact on the pace or direction of rock. 🤦‍♂️

@ABDanielleSmith @boxing_canada @WabKinew , I would hope Manitoba looks at this similarly to Alberta? In what world is it fair & equitable to allow biological males to compete against females?

English

Danielle Smith@ABDanielleSmith·18 Ara

Happy to hear that @boxing_canada has become part of a growing list of sporting organizations who, like the vast majority of Albertans, recognize that women and girls have the right to play competitive sports in safe and fair environments against other biological females. We are calling on Skate Canada to reverse their disgraceful anti-women boycott.

@mikemcintyrewpg Agree, required Teo making a perfect pickup & throw (not a great RF), followed by another 2nd perfect throw. Worth the risk.

Mike McIntyre@mikemcintyrewpg·28 Eki

I get the send there. Vladdy was gonna be walked anyways. IKF would be the batter. A risk worth taking IMO.

@GardMackay @ShiDavidi lol, Vlad getting walked anyway in that situation. IT’s the right call, as it required a ‘meh’ R fielder making a perfect pick up and throw, followed by another perfect throw to plate. 🤷‍♂️

@ShiDavidi Why you sending Schneider with Vladdy coming up? Out by a mile!

@MattC1143 @MLarkinHockey Agree with this - beating Eckersley was a monumental task at the time, and moved the Jays into the WS…who knows if they have any WS titles without this hit. 🤷‍♂️

Matthew 🇨🇦 ✡️@MattC1143·21 Eki

@MLarkinHockey slight correction: 3. Alomar 4. Bautista Why? Alomar's home run in the 1992 ALCS broke the mental stranglehold that the A's had on the Jays and brought us into the World Series. Bautista's homerun capped a crazy series that brought us into the ALCS.

@DonTaylor5 Bad take Don, bad take - look at the impact the Jays have had on baseball in Canada. (& BC) Look at the Van Canadians to start, and the lineup they have contributed to with the Jays/majors. (You don’t have to look far…) Now compare that to SEA….I’ll wait…. 👂 Jays are 🇨🇦!

It makes me laugh when people say British Columbians should pull for the Jays over the Mariners because it is anti-Canadian not to. Did anyone in Toronto want the Canucks to beat the Bruins in 2011 based on nationality? Not a chance.
