"Friends" is a beloved American sitcom that aired from 1994 to 2004, following six young adultsβ€”Rachel, Ross, Monica, Chandler, Joey, and Phoebeβ€”living in New York City. The show explores their friendships, romances, careers, and personal growth over ten seasons.

Clearly this was a case of fowl play.

I'll see myself out......

I never said the penalties were effective, did I? I was using them to point out that the provinces were ignoring the "explicit indicators" for the transfer payments that you touted as a way to ensure that federal funding is used properly.

And I'm ending the debate with you here.

Nine of the ten provinces have been penalized for breaches of the Canada Health Act over the last decade. Of those 9, you have QuΓ©bec, BC and Newfoundland that aren't PC or UCP.

Conservative provincial governments are actively running public health care into the ground so that they can say that it doesn't work. That allows them to justify private health care for those who can afford it. It's a coordinated effort, not a fluke.

Perspective is funny. I lived just outside of Ottawa, Ontario at the time and don't remember that storm specifically. When I looked at the historical weather for the day, there certainly was a good storm, but it wasn't much different than most other storms we got in a typical winter. I was 12 then.

Sigh. McDavid did that β€œone on three” twice and Binnington saved his arse on the first one. Oh well, great game otherwise. On to 2030!

Naw, it wasn't really. What they *did* miss was the defender's stick up on the hands on the breakaway early in OT. In the NHL that's a hooking penalty every time.

This local Wolfdog joined an Olympic ski event and triggered the finish-line camera. This is Nazgul. He snuck into a cross-country skiing sprint this morning and raced the homestretch with some competitors before being escorted home. 14/10 someone get him a medal
