Yeah, skates can do some damage...

For Winter Classics, yes - but the 2003 Heritage Classic in Edmonton was the worst. -18C (about 0F) with windchill of -30C (-22F).

Go in the summer. Winter in Montreal sucks, and if you are looking for a “winter wonderland” vacation there are much better options, including Quebec City. The Jazz Festival is much more than jazz music and has all sorts of free shows, Just for Laughs always features a murderers row of comedians, and the F1 race is…

Have him do it in character as Rust Cohle and you’ve got yourself a winner.

My wife and I have a similar system. Net income gets pooled together and then 60% goes to joint account to pay bills. 10% goes to retirement savings and 10% to an emergency fund. After that, we have individual accounts where 10% (5% each) goes to short term savings (trips, Christmas presents, etc) and 10% (again 5%…

Funny, my first thought was that the devices are probably military-issue, in order to track how hard the troops are training. I wouldn’t be surprised at all if it turns out that it was the military itself that didn’t turn off location services.

Then that should be the comparison, not the $1,000 vs $1,000,000 for re-shoots that keeps getting thrown around.

I fully support pay equality, but can we stop using that example of Michelle Williams to promote the cause? She chose to waive her fee to do the re-shoots, because she believe strongly in the need to do them. Mark Wahlberg chose not to waive his fee. That may make him an asshole, but it does not make a compelling…

My wife and I have both - joint account for common expenses but separate accounts for “fun money”. Part of the reasoning is to be able to buy a surprise gift for the other without them seeing the transaction.

“Let women do the speaking up right now. The time right now is for men just to listen and not have an opinion about it for once.” - Minnie Driver

Yeah, but under Canadian law the fees that those schools would be able to charge would be severely restricted...

Then we’ll take Vermont. But they become part of Quebec and have to learn French.

Yeah, I’m going to go ahead and speak for all of Canada and say there’s no way we’re taking in a bunch of states that would immediately form a majority of the population.

The issue is that one could find a video of cruel and senseless violence perpetrated by literally every ethnic or religious group on the planet. Singling out this one as well as highlighting the religion of the perpetrators is done with the sole purpose of inflaming fear and anger towards Muslims.

So basically Mitch McConnell just watched season 1 of House of Cards? Isn’t this (5 YR OLD SPOILER ALERT) how they got rid of the VP?

In fairness, Alex Mather did provide a little more context to his quotes on twitter today (https://twitter.com/alex3780) - something that I would have expected to be mentioned in this article.

The Montreal coverage definitely has the columnist angle covered in both English and French - and following the Habs’ horrible start they have not been holding back on the commentary. Case in point being Mitch Melnick essentially calling out the team owner for spending more time on condo projects than running the team.

Keep driving north and Quebec isn’t any better. I had a colleague casually toss out the n-word and then explain that no, no, it isn’t racist in French...

As a Montrealler and huge Expos fan, I have serious doubts about Vlad and PEDs. I like to believe he got so much bigger because he was so poor growing up and finally had access to proper nutrition, but man he was skinny as a rookie compared to his later playing days...

I actually saw it as a callback to the conversation Bran had with Osha in the godswood at Winterfell. I don’t remember the exact words but Bran says something about how the gods don’t answer, then Osha tells him to listen and he says all he hears is wind - then Osha asks who he thinks sends the wind.
