The Toronto area could EASILY handle 1-2 more NHL teams. But MLSE does everything to prevent any competition that would be great for fans, but bad for MLSE profits. How powerful is MLSE inside the NHL? The two are literally headquartered in the same building: 50 Bay.

From Sherbrooke to Victoria, people across the country hosted bake sales over the weekend to raise $30.64 billion dollars to pay for climate solutions that didn’t make it into this year’s budget. Sounds ludicrous? So is not taxing the excess profits of Big Oil and Big Grocers.

PART 2) So I wrote a poem on the way home from the gym and tweeted it and got over 50,000 likes or views. I wanna thank everything for the kind words. I don't expect to get on the show but I felt better just for putting it out there and who knows maybe it'll help? RS
