My St. Patrick’s Day beer with Mark Carney. We need less foam and more beer!

@Tripple____M I was visiting London from Vancouver and was meant to visit family that day when some Gunners fans mentioned at the tube station that they had an extra ticket. I went with them. My only Premiership game ever. And I got to see that goal. Oct 19/2013....

BREAKING NEWS 🔴🔥This goal has been voted as the best team goal ever

@dodo_naidenov @Bricktop_NAFO Jed Bartlett did it better.

@Bricktop_NAFO Lool, somebody’s a fan of West Wing.

This is what happened when Charlie Kirk had a debate with someone with an education. Rather than debating American kids that were just starting college. A student from Oxford University in the UK destroying Charlie Kirk.

@DigitronBill @theiaincameron Ah, for just one time I would take the northwest passage To find the hand of Franklin Reaching for the Beaufort Sea

@theiaincameron Hudson Bay always blows me away how BIG it is -those lads that first found it (looking for the northwest passage) must have thought they hit paydirt when they sailed into it.

@SpencerFernando Looks like Jivani is in the content creation business for the Liberals' ad campaign for the next election. The Conservatives are innovative in their approach to losing.

REPORT: Jamil Jivani sides with Trump Administration over Canada, blames Canadian PM, calls Canadians’ righteous anger towards U.S. an “anti-American hissy fit”. spencerfernando.com/2026/02/15/rep…

@RobFai Great stories Rob. Thanks for sharing.

As many reflect on the life and times of Jim Robson, I'm drawn to a pair of stories that will stay with me for a lifetime. He loved to meet up with friends for breakfast, at a small corner cafe in Kitsilano. It was close to his home and like a Canucks or Mounties roster, he knew the menu and staff by heart. The first time I got to sit across from him he could probably hear my knees knocking from the nerves, but Jim had a way of knowing what might connect - and he immediately started telling me of his early days in baseball, a sport he dearly loved. He'd remember with crystal clarity the Mounties player out on second base in the bottom of the 3rd inning with two out in a scoreless game back April of '68. It was incredible to sit back and let Jim paint a picture of a scenario and laugh as he'd usually find a way to turn a story into something relateable. The first time he told me about a call he had heard me make was the cherry on a perfect Sunday - I couldn't believe he listened, but he did. He told me a technique when on the radio that I use to this day. Four people in a car, one knows everything about what you're talking about, two 'sort of know' and one has no idea. The goal he challenged me with was never to have anyone in the car ask to change the channel, meaning ensure your broadcast had something in it each inning that made everyone in the car feel as if they could come along for the ride. It is more than stats; it's stories, which way the wind is blowing, and how quickly the arm in the bullpen is warming up. Mention the score, often because you never know when someone just got to their car to tune in, and remember "no one is driving around with a pencil and a pad of paper, so just a few key stats, and then let the game tell the story." I valued every single interaction with a man that cared about the craft and the person he was sharing his insight with. The other memory? He never lost "it." A few years ago we had a video out at The Nat that just had to have his voice on it. I had rarely asked Jim to do things of this nature but after a quick call - out he came to the ballpark, ready to sit down and record his track. I budgeted about 30-minutes hoping he'd be comfortable enough in my stuffy, rooftop office to get through my crammed script and help us out. I had my makeshift recording studio set up and there he sat, reading through the script in an office with no heat, a flickering light and a crow sitting on the cable outside letting Jim know he was a fan as well. I pressed record, and Jim delivered the script once, with absolute perfection. Every note, every inflection and word that needed punch delivered as if he had written it himself. When he finished, I clicked stop and said "we're good." No second attempt needed, no "safety" just in case - he could not have done it any better, and we just sat around in that little corner of the stadium and talked about Lou Pinella's debut in the Pacific Coast League, and how one night the wire during one of his recreate games only sent him two outs and not the third which caused a tizzy. He had told me that story a few times before but it never got old and I never stopped laughing because he always have some new tidbit to add from memory that made it more than worth the moment. Jim was an amazing husband, father, friend, and mentor - to so, so many. I am on the other side of the world this morning, and saddened as one of my heroes has left us. I take solace in knowing he's home with his wife after just a few months apart, and many friends, probably sitting down at some cafe allowing them to share some of their stories before he gets into his. Thank you Mr. Robson. I am better for having met you and being so fortunate to have learned from your journey. Safe travels. #JimRobson

@bruce_arthur Absolute gem of a human. His voice was the soundtrack to the grad class of '94 underperforming in our provincial exams while trading study time to watch an amazing playoff run. Ran into him in the Galiano grocery store and he had all the time in the world for fans. What a man.

A legend in Vancouver. Me and my brother walked up to him once as kids and he was so nice and shook my hand. The voice of my childhood.

@chrisgailus @Scout_Motors With my 13 yr old eyeing my 2017 T4Runner OffRoad as his first vehicle in a few years' time, maybe we need 2 Scouts in the Mountainview neighbourhood.

@Scout_Motors With the Rivian R2 coming down the pike soon(ish) you better get this thing on the road! How will its price compare to R2 basic spec? Asking for a friend who is me.

More glass than a goldfish bowl. Modern capability with a classic field of view. #ScoutMotors #TheWorldNeedsScouts

@CanadianPolling Country of WE, not a country of ME.

What would you consider to be "Canadian Values"?

@rcamcole I don't mean to be crude but I'd like to shit in that man's hat.

"Therefore, we should not resist, but co-operate with the hostile takeover. Yours truly, a traitor."

@CollinRugg I miss Norm MacDonald.

NEW: Frank Stallone, the brother of Sylvester Stallone, rips Hollywood celebrities for their anti-ICE rants, says ‘Puke Springsteen’ should retire after his ‘horrific’ new song. “Oh, Lady Gaga…” “It's really nice you're on stage in another country and you're putting your own country down on stuff you know nothing about.” “These officers are out there doing their job rounding up bad people, but the problem is innocent, stupid people get involved and make it worse and get hurt…”

@clashreport Turns out he was just talking to a Star Wars puppet named Yoda.

Trump: Toyota — I met Mr. Toyoda in Japan. So I said, ‘What’s your name, Toyota?’ I said, ‘Oh, do you own the car company?’ He said, ‘Yes — 92 percent.’ I said, ‘You didn’t have to be that specific.’ But I said, ‘You’re rich.’ Yes, yes — very rich.

@canucker101 If I was home sick from school, it was a healthy dose of THE PRICE IS RIGHT and WOK WITH YAN.

Most Vancouverites should remember this man, Steven Yan. He starred in his own national cooking show on CBC "Wok With Yan" from 1978 until 1995. He is 87 and lives in Vancouver. His original resturant, Yan's Garden is still in Burnaby on Lougheed Highway. Although he sold it many years ago.

@RacerThreads @DiscussingFilm Unrelenting melancholy amidst some of the most stunning scenery on film.

@DiscussingFilm Give it every award possible. I watched it back-to-back on 35mm and it ripped my soul out.

‘TRAIN DREAMS’ has won Best Cinematography at the Critics Choice Awards

@BillHuntBits Unrelenting melancholy set amongst such stunning scenery. Been a long time since I've felt that immersed in a film.

If you get the chance, TRAIN DREAMS on Netflix is one of the best films I’ve seen in a long time. I haven’t stopped thinking about it.

@Variety Torture was sitting through that last Avatar movie.

James Cameron criticizes Amy Poehler's Golden Globes joke about his marriage to Kathryn Bigelow being torture: “The remark was an ignorant dig, at an event which is supposed to be a celebration of cinema and filmmakers, not a roast. I’m pretty thick-skinned, and happy to be the butt of a good-natured joke, but that went too far. The fact that people found it funny shows exactly what they think of me, even though they have no idea who I am or how I work," Cameron told The New York Times.

Great little video from a new patriotic tiktok account. This is the kind of history not enough Brits are taught. 🇬🇧

@RobShaw_BC @bcndp I can't believe the NDP comms thought this was a good message right now.

NEW - The @bcndp has removed former BC premier Duff Pattullo's name from the new Pattullo bridge. It will instead be called: stal̕əw̓asəm Translates as 'place to view the river.' Gov gov says English "Riverview" sign will be placed there as well. Pattullo was BC's 22nd premier.

@Canucks The email version of this that just dropped in my inbox has the tagline 'ALL TOGETHER. ALL IN.' just as we're (maybe) on the verge of nuking the current team. Aquilinis need to be ALL OUT.

@chefsevenn My son asked me what beef liver tastes like and I said as long as you live under my roof, you'll never know.

Liver and Onions... Yes or No? 🤔
