@ctvottawa Lockdowns and mass migration had consequences. Who could have predicted this.

@CursedSens Mental toughness is part of all pro sports, they are the elite of the elite. I’m sorry this offends you.

Some things are bigger than the game Marc. O'Neill's comments are contributing to the stigma around men's mental health.
I don't disagree with your take on how people view it, but that's exactly the problem.
Marc Methot@MarcMethot3
Hard not to agree with O on this. This is how an overwhelming amount of the guys would view this scenario. Just saying.
English
So ullmark, in the middle of a playoff race, said he couldn’t play the other night and now has given up 2 goals on the first 2 shots ? Come on man
English
@RichChurchil Well you guys killed his confidence, what a shitty fan base

For your AVERAGE tax rate to be 50%, your income needs to be really high (like 600-800k total)
You'll excuse me if I don't shed a tear for the 1%

Finished our taxes and came to a realization: In a two-physician household, one spouse's income is entirely confiscated by the government.

Good convos on here tonight with some people about mental health. (And some bad ones)
I leave you with this as I go to bed. Everyone should have a union. You should be allowed to take sick days or just days off. Everyone needs breaks. Some need more than others and that's okay.

@RazzballViz @MarcMethot3 He opened himself up to it taking a month off and hurting his team in doing so.
English
@MarcMethot3 How many goalies in this day and age play in 4 games in less than a week’s time (given the early start for the Tampa game)? It’s pretty much unheard of. Ottawa is also a clear underdog no matter who is in net. I get that Ottawa is pushing, but the criticism is way over the top

"What Linus Ullmark did on Saturday, was completely unacceptable." 👀 O-Dog gives a candid view on Ullmark not playing against the Lightning in a significant game #GoSensGo
English
@PenisUllmark @MarcMethot3 Yeah, bro, I get it, but mental health matters.
English
Since when did everyone in my feed all of a sudden become a mental health expert?
English
@OverDrive1050 Way out of line O’Dog. When he took his time off, he was questioning why he was playing hockey. That’s a deep deep dark depression. If you haven’t lived it, you should just shut your mouth and let Ullmark and Ottawa handle it. You are way out of your knowledge level.
English
@OverDrive1050 So yall don’t actually care about Mental illness unless it’s convenient. Got it. Classless loser’s.

@awri125 @AndreaGal67 Developers do build things, tho. Creating jobs in the process.
English
It's just a shell game.
The government, funded by taxpayers will assume the costs instead of developers recouping the development fees from new home buyers ALL taxpaying Canadians will foot the bill.
Mark Carney@MarkJCarney
We are reducing taxes and fees for new homes in Ontario by up to $200,000. Premier @fordnation and I just announced a new partnership to lower costly development charges, cut taxes on new homes across the province, and build more transit infrastructure to reduce commute times.

Air Canada said Monday that CEO Michael Rousseau will retire this fall, following his English-only condolence after a deadly New York crash.
PM Carney said, "He was an effective operator… but leadership carries many responsibilities… The next Air Canada CEO must be bilingual."

@awri125 @AndreaGal67 There are very little profits these days in developing.
English
@AndreaGal67 while cities waste billions and developers get excessive profits
English
@Ram_canada1 @ronmortgageguy There are virtually no profits at this pt.
English
@ronmortgageguy @ronmortgageguy , if the cost of construction comes down, will the builders pass it on to consumers with a full cut or they will pocket some profits

Important Things To Understand About Today's Housing Announcement In Ontario
- It's the Provence & Feds providing an $8.8B Fund to allow Ontario Cities to reduce Development Fees by 50% for a 3 Year Period
- Combined with the Announcement of no HST on New Construction

Michael Jordan was asked if he still misses basketball:
“100%. It’s not just a tiny bit, it’s a huge piece. I’ve compensated that feeling through NASCAR. That urge to dream that I wish I could still pickup a basketball, I would love to do that. Believe me. My competitive juices, yeah I would definitely love to do that.”
(Via @CBSMornings)
NBA Courtside@NBA__Courtside
Michael Jordan says he’s ‘cursed’ with the competition gene: “The joy of seeing competition, right. I’m a very competitive person. I think I’m cursed. I’m cursed with this competitive gene that with anything that I do, if I get dressed I have to get dressed before my wife gets dressed. Those type of things. I’m cursed” (Via youtu.be/iSi0I9N0rx8)

@politicalmath @Will_I_AmLegend Canada was in lockdown until march 2022. “Unvaxed” still couldn’t leave the country for months after that. We went completely off the rails and are still paying for it today.
English
@Will_I_AmLegend In California, they fined a church millions for meeting, even if they wore mask. They arrested a man for going to the beach unmasked
English
This just flat out isn't true. Blue states had substantially more draconian lockdowns than most of Europe.
Europe also had *much* better vaccine policy while, here in the US, the Biden admin told YouTube to censor videos of US scientists saying that we should follow European recommendations
Jason Furman@jasonfurman
I agree with these. But am curious how it compares to Europe. They had much, much more draconian lockdowns. But did they not have the same vacillation and hypocrisy that we had? Is the backlash more or less there than here? Pointers to writing on this most welcome.
English
@ohiojesustwink Came out may 30 2021, where were you that you still were in lockdown at that time
English
@clahanna And here I thought pro athletes wanted to play in big games.
English
Lots of curiosity about why Linus Ullmark didn’t start vs the Lightning. Ottawa played Thursday & next game is Tuesday.
Travis Green said, “I want to play Linus every night. But he needed a rest and he wasn't available to start tonight." #Sens
