Well, Toronto, you must be happy this am; the Leafs managed to pull off a 2-1 victory over the Bruins last night. Wasn't a great game, not a lot of SOG, not a lot of scoring opportunities, 1st goal was garbage, but hey, every goal counts eh. So, Saturday night in Beantown, eh. It all comes down to a single game...
In other news, Galen Weston is trending... for all the wrong reasons: from @ItmustbeBunneez
"I have gone out of my way to support 🇨🇦 owned businesses
I have never shopped at Walmart, never will, but Galen Weston will never see another dime of my money
The one thing I can control in this life s how I spend my money
@costcocanada
treats their employees well
#Roblaws"
But a mere sample of how people are feeling about the megalomaniac.
Will the boycott have an affect? I believe it will, but not in the way it's intended; the corp will cut hours of staff, lay off staff, an make sure the exec's don't lose a dime. In cases like this, the rich don't suffer, they feel that's only for us poors to do...

Not everyone can do everything. But everyone can do something. Because #DemocracyIsSomethingYouDo...
Write to your MP, MPP, MLA, MNA, Senator, or preferred local media outlet to tell them you expect them to dig deep into the Doug Ford corruption story as well as indicted-in-the-USA-for-trying-to-steal-an-election Mike Roman's links to Stephen Harper and Andrew Scheer. And tell them you want them to do more to house the homeless.
If you live in Alberta, get involved in canvassing for the AB NDP Leadership race. If you are in Saskatchewan or New Brunswick, why not look into working at a polling station this coming election?
With the current strain on our health care professionals, do the right neighbourly thing to keep our hospitals unclogged: get your XBB, flu, pneumonia, and / or RSV shots , as well as meningitis B, COVID, and MMR boosters.
Finally, support your fellow Canadians by donating to the Red Cross Wildfire Response.
