I remember I first saw community mailboxes in suburban Ottawa in the 90s. As a Toronto kid, I thought it was so strange and impersonal. I knew my mail delivery person by name growing up and loved it. I don’t want to even metaphorically live in suburban Ottawa…

I played in a charity tourney with Ron a few years ago. At a pre-tourney Q&A, an intoxicated participant asked Ron who the most famous woman he’d ever been with was. He replied, “Well…your mom, last night.” The entire room erupted with laughter.
The New York Rangers organization mourns the loss of Ron Duguay, one of the most popular players in franchise history. Ron's signature skating style - with his hair flowing as he moved down the ice - captivated The Garden Faithful, and his skill, tenacity, and charisma earned him the admiration of all New Yorkers. We join the hockey community in sending our condolences to Ron's friends, family, and loved ones during this difficult time.

People in the comments keep pointing to the affordability crisis. While that is partially true, a lot of it also comes from millennials realizing how many sacrifices you truly make when you become a parent (a lot of which end up being on the mom in the worst instances).

Krista Ford went to high school with my brother and used to refer to low income individuals as “dirt.” Girl hasn’t got a damn clue.
#ONpoli #TOpoli Krista Ford rants about Olivia Chow “running the city into the ground” with zero mention of her father Doug Ford being the one who actually made most of the biggest decisions for the city…

My British husband is eligible for Canadian citizenship next year. Talk about winning the passport lottery if Canada were to join the EU.
Please God let Canadians use the EU passport line while the Brits wait in the queue it would be so funny 🙏🙏🙏

Worked in comms. Was paid $35,000 in 2016. I somehow managed to survive but there’s no way I could now.

How do I live on the shores of Lake America and have access to subsidized health care and education? Doesn’t seem very American here.

My 5 years at the NHLPA allowed me to experience things many hockey fans can only dream of, and I got to do it all alongside the most wonderful people. As I move onto my next challenge, I’ll be taking all of my lessons learned with me. Just wish I could take the people too ❤️

He’s a Scottish polar bear
Momota, a polar bear cub residing in an aquarium in Japan’s Akita Prefecture, has recently gained online popularity for his love of traffic cones. The eight-month-old cub has been recorded playing with the cones, including stacking them and bringing them to his den at Oga Aquarium GAO.

As women, not only do we not only have to deal with misogyny, period cramps, and unrealistic beauty standards, but we may also encounter an occasion (like myself) where an entire weekend in the summer is spent going to two different baby showers 😭

They’re not necessarily drunk, Scots just LOVE 90s dance music. Literally blasts in pharmacies and dollar stores all 24/7.

Within 5 minutes of being in the locker room post-win, it was evident Mallory ran the show and ran it well. She insisted on taking this photo of me and my colleague. True girls girl.
What a gesture from the Canes 👏 The Hurricanes gave their team operations assistant, Mallory Wilmoth, her time to shine on stage with the Stanley Cup 🏆

I feel so privledged to call Scotland my second home. As I tell my husband often, “I’m so glad you’re from Scotland and not Bumfuck, Ontario.” Basically my way of saying that visiting his homeland means amazing people, culture, food and scenery. It never disappoints. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿
“Loch Lomond” in Foxborough. Quite a sight. #WorldCup

The location referenced in the song above. On a gloomy day a few weeks ago, Loch Lomond still delivered.

It has now been enacted into Canadian law that @hockeyesque must write all broadcast format hype videos that pertain to national sporting teams and events 🍁
The World Lives Here. Canada is all together different. Truly unique. And so is our relationship to the beautiful game. This is our opening to the 2026 World Cup. Narrated by Kiefer Sutherland. #FIFAWorldCup

Couldn’t be closer to the truth. I wasn’t aware of the existence of the Granite Club or other similar establishments until my mid 20s when I (unfortunately) came in contact with other class groups.
Replying to @danielakinlalu
Old school toronto folks are racially integrated but class seperated
