Like history, literature, baseball, tolerance. Interested in world affairs, but they're painful now we're this close to peak stupid. Torontonian, cancer survivor, mostly retired. Here for the fresh air, so far so good! Only DM me if my house is on fire.

It applies here.
Fine outfielder, and his reputation is great clubhouse guy!

I find it amusing how well accidental consequences have worked up and down the roster this year for GM Atkins. eg: Straw by accident, big contract to Anthony Santander on purpose.
Oddly, the $11 million man, Myles Straw, has proved to be a very useful piece for the Jays. Not what you're talking about, I know, but this year Toronto's roster is crowded with players like Straw, who have far outperformed any reasonable expectation at the start of the season.

It's taken me a very long time to understand the extent to which the promise of the New World included refuge for intolerant strains of the Old World's religions.
(Do you suppose Europe really missed the people leaving on the Mayflower?)
The Holten Cemetery Christmas candle-lighting ceremony still goes on and it puts our domestic Canadian historical memory to shame, and they still send tulips to Ottawa.
But presumably Hoekstra's parents were there to experience the war and missed the memo.
I was surprised to learn Hoekstra was born in the Netherlands. His generation was raised to deeply respect Canada for its heavy lifting ending their country's long Nazi occupation in WW2.

07.09.2025 00:55 โ ๐ 313 ๐ 57 ๐ฌ 13 ๐ 1Agree. They shouldn't receive lower wages than Canadian workers for the same thing. Are they here because they're needed, or just because they're cheaper? They should also be able to change employers when they're here, otherwise they're indentured servants, which was ruled a bad idea long ago.
06.09.2025 23:19 โ ๐ 1 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0I don't know why temporary workers should be filling what are not obviously seasonal positions, other than the preference of the employer to pay them less than everybody else's minimum wage.

Sorry about that, America.
With the CPC disappearing into madness, and Mark Carney turning the Liberals into Blue Tories, there's now an opportunity for the NDP to reinvent itself as the party of the left, if they can get their head out of their own ass in time.
