Good riddance

Spicy take: Don Cherry was always garbage and we're all lucky that he's 85 or he'd be PM right now. Literally the only good thing about him was that dog, and the dog died years ago.

Chipotle take: Ron MacLean is worse because the only thing worse than a racist is a racist who's also a hypocrite and an enabler. Literally the bar for white dudes in this country is milquetoast "racism is bad" and he can't even manage that unless his career's at stake.

Ghost pepper take: Men's hockey sucks anyway; women's hockey requires way more skill and is more interesting to watch.

I’m wondering if that’s the take of the person or persons who graffitied the cenotaph in front of City Hall overnight. The official reaction is all “blahblah disrespecting Our VeteransTM,” but given that the spraypainted words are “YE BROKE FAITH WITH US,” I don’t think it’s the veterans that the graffitoes have a beef with.

I think it's likely a veteran who did it, and probably for quite sympathetic reasons.

Dammit— the guy arrested for it apparently claims to have done so in support of Cherry?!

I think he has some pretty severe mental health issues. He used to hang around Occupy, which was a magnet for fringe types. I'm just glad it wasn't someone on our side, not that I think anyone would.
