Dear European liberals trying to insult me and Americans, taste of some freedom of speech 🫡🇺🇸.

@ezralevant Why do you suppose that was? That Harper didn't do something about it.
Have always wondered.
English
We had such a billionaire. His name was Pierre-Karl Peladeau and he threw tens of millions of dollars at the project, called Sun News Network.
The CRTC, in league with the cable companies, chose to destroy it. And Stephen Harper didn't lift a finger to save it.

What Canada needs? A right-of-centre Canadian billionaire with guts and thick skin to buy a major TV and radio network and present an alternative viewpoint on our airwaves. Right now the airwaves are ALL leftist.

@krausch07 @Chrisnoll_Sask @Denny2point0 Clown? $18 plus $20 is not $50. Maybe tickets aren't as expensive as you think? Your math sucks.
English
@Mikesmith1919 @Chrisnoll_Sask @Denny2point0 Ha clown, its the Regina Pats, its not worth $50 a ticket plain and simple
English
These idiots never came back down to earth after the Bedard show. Sell tickets for $20 a crack and fill the place. It’s not rocket appliances.

@krausch07 @Chrisnoll_Sask @Denny2point0 If 18 more bucks for a ticket is to tough on your bank account then you shouldn't be going at all.
English
@Chrisnoll_Sask @Denny2point0 Been saying this for years… no kids tickets?? Wtf
Sell $20 tickets and fill the place its very simple

@Denny2point0 Dad came home with a brand new truck! He must have money!

When did these god damn children figure that their teeth were worth $20 each from the tooth fairy? 😂

@_TyAnderson That's why you're a reporter and don't work for the team.
English
I truthfully would want him getting playoff experience ASAP. Pastrnak was pretty overmatched in 2017, but I feel like it made him realize what he had to work on. If you draft the right kind of player, it clicks pretty quick from there. But the first dunk is always the hardest.
John Carpenter@John_Carpenter1
@_TyAnderson I think the main question is if we think Hagens is going to be the player we all think he can be, is it worth burning the ELC year if the team is not a sure fire contender? With Charlie, it was a necessity bc of injury.
English
@conroyherald Bergeron also had a pro training camp. Hagens has never been on the ice vs men trying to earn a paycheck and keep a job.
English
Bergeron went straight to Boston. He played in Providence in his second season during the lockout.
Short Shift Podcast@shortshiftpod
Charlie McAvoy went to Providence first. David Pastrnak went to Providence first. Patrice Bergeron went to Providence first.
English
@Jessemedscience The thing that all you idiots don't understand is it would actually be good for him to go to Providence. He's not pushing anyone out of Bostons lineup.
English
People take things way too literal here
** In the event there is a difference of a opinion between the two parties **
Boston can’t (force) James Hagens to go to PROV — BOS would have to convince him it’s the best path
But James Hagens could definitely tell Boston to go “F*ck themselves” and go back to BC
…that’s called, “leverage”
College players control their own destiny…they can simply ‘hold out’ in a sense, and pick their path later — NHL teams have ZERO control over that
That said, James Hagens is coming to Boston one way or another — I feel that’s the logical consensus.
No need to lose your minds over ‘hypotheticals’ — let’s enjoy the ride

@overbystockfarm @paulmrobertson1 And you're complaining about the price of tires? 5000 hours and complaining about tires.
English
@paulmrobertson1 Had it 5 years this fall. Bought it with 1700 hrs on it.
English
New front tires are only worth one calf, new front tires are only worth one calf, new front tires are only worth one calf...
English
@rhofford Nobody complains more about the prices of things then farmers and farmers never drive used base model trucks. Can't pull that $150,000 toy hauler with a used truck.
English
farm economist guy: your living expenses are equivalent to a new pickup truck per year
farmer: what kinda truck tho, base model, SLE, high country, denali?
farm economist: yes exactly

@Jessemedscience You are honestly absolutely retarded when it comes to hockey. You should be embarrassed.

Marat Khusnutdinov
Last 10GP: 1G
Casey Mittelstadt
Last 22GP: 3G
Mikey Eyssimont
Last 25GP: 3G
You can’t tell me there’s no room for both James Hagens and Matthew Poitras
I’m not removing Khusnutdinov because he’s a guy that can play up and down the lineup and allows you the flexibility to play him in different roles
Viktor Arvidsson is Zacha’s true pair so I don’t see a big impact in moving Mittelstadt down
Eyssimont — bye.
Geekie-Minten-Pastrnak
Hagens-Zacha-Arvidsson
Mittelstadt-Poitras-Lindholm
Jeannot-Kastelic-Khusnutdinov
*Fraser Minten clicks with Pasta — could open up more looks for Geekie who’s been cold coming out of the break
*Pavel Zacha is as responsible and consistent as they come, perfect mentor for a young James Hagens. Arvidsson would take some of the pressure off as the ‘go to guy’
*Matthew Poitras has been tremendous for PROV and just looks like a complete player right now. Elias Lindholm has played a ton of RW in his career and a reduced role could help him reset and regain some confidence
*Marat Khusnutdinov has become Boston’s Swiss Army Knife — the kid can play anywhere in a pinch. His energy projects well on any line. His familiarity with playing in a forechecking role allows flexibility throughout the rest of the lineup

@zeefarmer @EarEigna Isn't the elevator the customer? They are buying your product. Why should they accommodate your hours you're not buying anything from them.
English
@EarEigna I get that, and have heard that from other managers about guys not showing up. It's just frustrating that they whine and hound you to get grain in, yet they seem to think it magically appears on the driveway. 8-10 hr days aren't conducive when they want to get lots of grain i
English
I'm amazed some days how unwilling elevators are to go outside their normal business hours to get grain in. They're gonna sit around doing nothing all next week when it's +15 out and its a mudhole but heaven forbid we open Saturday and help get grain out while everything's frozen

Look at the generational difference -
1990s:
• Get a university degree
• Get a 9–5 job
• Suit and tie
• Get promoted
• Get married at 21
• Buy a house at 25
• 4 kids, 1 dog
• Retire at 60
2026:
• Survive… Show more

@DouglasTodd @BenParfittCCPA There is nobody more crooked on the planet then an Indian Chief, maybe liberal MPs or MLAs but it's close.

B.C.'s highest-spending chief.
Chief Harley Chingee, of the McLeod Lake Indian Band,
claimed $370k in expenses in three years.

@TotallyAllIn @andystrickland Everyone wants to win no doubt about it, but when people threatened his family he knew it was time to leave.
English
@andystrickland Mitch Marner should have talked to Roman Polak more - I don't think he has any idea of what it will be like if he doesn't win in Vegas. They don't stand pat.
English
Roman Polak once told me he felt way more pressure playing in St. Louis than he did in Toronto because of the daily expectations put on the team from management and ownership to win. Said players aren’t pressured by newspapers and talk radio as those can easily be ignored. Says the internal pressure that comes from the inside is far more demanding than media pressure.

"There's not 25 media people in your room everyday." 👀 Patrick Maroon on the pressure of playing in Toronto compared to elsewhere in the league. #LeafsForever

@kowalchukfarms1 Better go buy a new Duramax and a camper. Summer is right around the corner.

Grain farming margins for 2026 were tight a week ago
They are a lot tighter today…
