@BizNasty2point0 @spittinchiclets @odognine2 When is the sandbagger at Weston???

We just finished interviewing the great Odog for the @spittinchiclets podcast. One of our white whales. Can’t wait to drop it. Thanks again to King City’s finest @odognine2.

@CarloColaiacovo If I had a nickel for every time a parent said to me after U16 "I wish I had listened to you and played for you" I'd be a rich man. Too many parents chase the W's thinking it helps their draft position, but it is just setting them up for failure.

While I’m on a role, these are the things I offer as advice for making decisions on where your kid should play. 1. Convenience-(close to home) 2. Coaching-(good people w/right intentions) 3. Development-(process over results) Be a“GREAT”player on a good team! vs Be a“GOOD”player on a great team!

I think about this every day, but especially today. Happy Father’s Day — our most important job

@PuckReportNHL Wonder if this was in the making from when JRC U16 played the Oakland Jr Grizzlies and they finally got to dance

AHL last night - Michael Buchinger (#stlblues) connects on SEVEN straight rights on Rutger McGroarty (#LetsGoPens). Get your popcorn, Winnipeg.

@adamzivo @TorontoStar @CommunityNotes can we validate this "claim"?

This fawning article in the @TorontoStar claims that Trudeau made Canada much wealthier. It cites some highly misleading figures to back up that claim, and provides no hyperlinks allowing readers to easily check these numbers. Let's break it down 🧵 [1] thestar.com/business/say-w…

KIDS: I had a Russian coach growing up, one of the best coaches I've ever had, whose biggest habit he instilled in us was moving without the puck. He would make us do a somersault on the ice if we passed the puck and just stood there in practice. All practice he would be yelling GET OPEN!!! Our team was the best I've ever seen with give-and-go's. We were programmed to always be moving to support the puck, especially just after we passed it. We developed so much hockey sense under him with that mentality as it continually forced us to anticipate where the play was going. That year, we won the National Championship and we had a ton of players end up playing college hockey. This is a PHENOMENAL clip of what he would have been so proud of. Pass, move, get it back, goal. Nolan Allan gets the puck, moves it quick, dashes right to the net while the defender watched the pass, and then receives it right back and buries. Absolute gold. Coaches, this is a great clip to show your teams on the power of moving away from the puck and the give-and-go. Great job and congrats to Allan on his first NHL goal!!

@ohlarenaguide Or they fill the schedule with NAHL or Prep schools. Lots of options.

This needs more visibility. If YNG/MSK join the OHL as expected, the NTDP winds up with a 300 mile drive (including a section through Chicago traffic) as their closest road game. And the OHL would never allow a team of the best Americans to join.

@JohnRey86031423 @MikeMcMahonCHN Except a Canadian cannot earn NIL under the US law. So will all be under the table like the old days.

BREAKING: AIC will drop its hockey program back to Division II at the end of the season, per sources. AIC players and staff were informed today. Was told the reason was "budgetary, and the changing landscape of the NCAA." More to follow.

@okayestdentist @TheOGLauraWalsh Individuals under the age of 18 cannot own property in Canada..which includes securities. Therefore any investment income would be attributed to the parent unless it was a trust account for the child. The banker probably got confused.

@TheOGLauraWalsh Just opened one at rbc. No appointment. But I asked about joining a self directed investing acct and was told the GOVT will not allow this until age 19. Stupid.

@Nicocantor1 IMG Academy losing to Bishop Sycamore

Someone please explain in football terms what it means that USA beat Pakistan at the T20 Cricket World Cup

@RearAdBsBlog Some folks just don't understand what hedging a bet is.

Bruh, I was guaranteed winner before they dropped the puck for Game 1. I was gonna win for either, a) calling a 40/1 shot before the season started or, b) sniping a 10th place, non-playoff team in February at 90/1. If you enjoy a game of chance, of course you remember that shit.

@MikeSyl36625988 Look up LumiQ. All podcast CPE training courses

I need help. Indiana has a truly stupid CPE requirement. I have to get 12 hours of Accounting and Auditing CPE every 3 years. It is an ancient requirement that needs to be changed; however, I doubt it ever will be changed. Does anyone know of any useful Accounting and Auditing CPE? Note my firm does ZERO compliance work. #incpas #cpa #cpe #aicpa

@MikeSyl36625988 I ask the client to provide their info, and I give them a quote, an engagement letter and ask for the return to be paid in full for a new client. This ensures my time isn't wasted and if they are serious they'll pay in full before having a discussion. Our time is worth something

I took over managing our online client onboarding forms from my partner the morning of April 16th. I changed our onboarding forms in Cognito. I emphasized even more the shortage of CPA's and that many firms are not taking on new clients. We are still doing free discovery calls for referrals. We are still charging $125 for others. I almost doubled the fee to $250. Instead, I added an onboarding fee of $125 per income tax return for all new clients, referrals or other. This is new for us. I will be interested to see how this works. We track the data on the number of calls, who calls, their name, email, and how they heard of us in excel. Then we track who completes the form they are emailed by our Admin. Do you charge onboarding fees? #cpa #ea #tax #Accounting

@JBrautwurst @MarkMcGrathCFP Hopefully your accountant told you that you should be drawing a salary to maximize your contributions to CPP to unlock the government benefits and using the bonus/mgmt fee mechanism directly to your RRSP to avoid the capital gains mess.

@MarkMcGrathCFP It really sucks. I started a PREC in 2021 and have been putting all my money in stocks in it. In 25 years I’m going to need all that money and it will now be taxed at a higher rate. I’ve now become a single issue voter.

Please consider donating to the ASU women’s hockey team and their trip to Nationals. ASU is the only top 10 school that is not funded by their own university. Almost everything is funded by the parents, players, and coaches despite their impressive run. gofund.me/a97f994f

This might be one of the most important documentaries that anyone can watch right now given current events and escalations between Hamas, Israel, Iran, and the US. All wars are bankers wars. If you are still caught up in the left vs right, Israel vs Palestine, Ukraine vs Russia narratives, treating geopolitics and war as if it's a football game where you are rooting for one side to win as the real moral authority, then you need to take 45 minutes out of your day to watch this in full. I've shared this documentary already weeks ago and a lot of people saw it and appreciated it, but I think it's now more important than ever for as many people to see it as possible and to really understand the profound and eye opening truth behind those words, and how EVERY SINGLE conflict has had powers above it funding both sides with nefarious intent behind it and a broader agenda that is not in the true interests of the people. I don't think any of what's happening right now is organic. I don't think Hamas getting into Israel to murder and capture civilians was a mistake, nor do I think the $6bil the Biden admin unfroze for Iran in exchange for hostages before the attack was a mistake either. They're constructing narratives right in front of us and we cannot just blindly believe them on surface level evaluation, especially when these narratives are being given by the establishment and MSM. I've said this before and I'll say it again. You need to think like they do with strategy, perception, and propagandistic motivations in mind. You need to try and understand why they are presenting whatever information to the public and for what purpose. You need to question every action, every directive, every media spin. Why is the narrative now shifting towards Biden admin causing this attack by releasing funds to Iran? Why is Lindsey Graham pre-emptively suggesting war with Iran in conjunction with this? What if this is designed to ensure Biden attacks Iran to cover his ass in giving them $6bil back? Also...Why was there such a huge focus of attention on anti-semitism on X in the weeks leading up to this attack? Was that organic? or was that planned in advance knowing there would be an attack on Israel and perceptions needed to be pre-emptively put in place for justifying censorship? Question everything. Assume conspiracy.

McIlroy says he didn't meet Joe Lacava this morning, which goes against what NBC reported at the start of the broadcast.
