In Canada, gerrymandering is rare and getting rarer. I had no idea about the American genesis of the term.https://www.si.edu/object/cartoon-gerry-mander-1813%3Anmah_509530

The difference between gold and silver.

@russohockey All due respect but your game story fails to acknowledge that Canada dominated the second and third periods of the gold medal game. Just a dash of humility is in order.

Canada missed five clear opportunities to put that gold medal game away. Tough loss.

Canadian broadcast of Canada-USA Olympic mens’s hockey gold pre-game montage includes a shot of the sign on the new Gordie Howe International bridge between Windsor and Detroit. Nice touch.

Well it is a sort of religion.

Heard today on an Ottawa dog-walking path. Two very elderly women. “It’s an 8 o’clock start.” “Yes, should take about 2 1/2 hours. We’ll know by mid-morning.” No mention of hockey or Olympics. But we all know what they’re talking about about. #Canada

I wonder how many Americans will be cheering for the Canadian men’s Olympic hockey team in Sunday’s gold-medal tilt with Team USA?

I’m an Ottawa Senators hockey fan but the way Brady Tkachuk is flopping around at the Olympics is just embarrassing.

(S+) U.S. Historian Robert Kagan: "We Are Watching a Country Fall Under Dictatorship Almost Without Resistance" The Cold War? Child's play compared to what lies ahead, according to U.S. historian Robert Kagan. Trump, he says, is leading the world into the most dangerous era since 1945.

“Unfortunately, to this day very few Americans have understood what is happening here. Some like what they're seeing, others are in denial about what's happening, still others think it won't be that bad. It's crazy.”

Full marks to the Olympic women’s hockey gold medal final. Great game, even if I don’t like the outcome.

It’s almost not satire anymore.

Seems like a lot less costly way to achieve a majority than calling a $300-million early election … but maybe that’s just me.

Eight (8!!!) Czech players on the ice when they went ahead 3-2 against Canada late in the third period today. Absolutely wild. What a 💩 ⛈️ if Canada had been eliminated by that goal. #Olympics

The proof is NOT in the pudding, dammit! The proof of the pudding is in the eating. Thank you for attending my TED Talk.

Canadian separatists optimistic after meetings with Trump officials U.S. officials tamped down on the meetings with the Alberta separatists, saying no senior staffers were present and no commitments were made.

“It’s really irresponsible for the United States to be engaging with these kinds of people, because it just encourages behavior that cannot be in the U.S. national interest,” former senior State Department official on US meeting with Alberta separatists.

I checked in on the other place and there are a lot of seriously Bunny-triggered folks over there. #SuperBowl

Out-take from the original Spinal Tap movie?

Bugs is no longer my favourite Bunny.

She just salvaged the first hour of this dreadful broadcast.

The Collateral Aliens is a great name for a punk band.

No-brainer, Chicago:

Tony Esposito!

So glad to see her getting some love for that small but stellar role in the Last of Us.
