Two of those teams draw fewer fans per game combined than a decent sized suburban high school.

Not in the case of the Carleton games. Carleton treats them as a chance to rotate through the entire roster and has been winning these games so frequently that the novelty wore off years ago.

...and if he doesn’t lead his team to the Asian Games gold medal this summer then they can hold on to the memory while he is forced back to Korea for compulsory service.

It’s more unfortunate that corporations are greedy as a rule, but they are corporations after all.

My friend’s super obnoxious wife is a vegetarian and was constantly posting articles on Facebook about e-coli and other nasty things that result from eating meat, followed by smug reminders that this is why she doesn’t eat meat.

When the right’s biggest hangup about Trudeau is the way he dressed in India then I think it’s time to move on to other political targets.

Maybe this one? (Answered in this article.)

If you hold Canada to the very lowest of standards; i.e. not engaging in mass slaughter of the indigenous population then I guess we treated them better. However, Canada’s treatment of its indigenous people (First Nations are only one of the three groups making up Indigenous people) is still shameful. Look up…

*checks to make sure no one is graduating college this spring*

How was the crowd weighted towards Penn State? The announcers frequently commented that OSU had the most support in the crowd and the cheers for their wrestlers were significantly louder than for any other team.

If we’re counting cult leaders and mega church preachers as performers then can we count Popes? Pope Francis’ largest single crowd so far was 5-6 million in the Philippines but that’s just one of many 1 million+ appearances while travelling. When he is in the vatican, his (almost) weekly St. Peters masses are in front…

IOC: “We’re not paying the insurance on your valuable assets and we’re not paying any costs to get them to Korea. Also, you can’t use any video or images from the games for promotion of the NHL and you most definitely can’t be a sponsor in lieu of payment for your lost revenue while the league shuts down for 2+ weeks.”

…

My dream format: Every player gets one chance initially to be voted in upon reaching eligibility with no ballot limits imposed on the voters. After that, off the ballot and wait for the veterans committee.

They could always try again and learn the many lessons from Target’s horrible first attempt. (http://www.canadianbusiness.com/the-last-days-of-target-canada/)

Except that you’re right about that one.

Something something gross misconduct.

As a former Ottawan who has lived in Toronto for the past 20 years, I am frequently amused by the amount of vitriol Toronto resdients directs at Ottawa. These people are constantly hyping Toronto’s status as world class and they’re busy obsessing over a smallish government city.

It’s used at the World Championships, too. It makes even less sense when almost none of the wrestlers in the bracket have been seeded.

Wrestling uses it to determine the bronze medallist (or medallists in the case of the Olympics and World Championships). Every wrestler eventually ends up in the bracket, with the exception of the two finalists for the gold medal match.

Prep programs have really taken off in Canada, especially in the Toronto area which is a massive hotbed of talent. There are some programs that seem to be on the up and up, especially when initiated and run by publicly-funded schools but there are also a lot of questionable ones “affiliated” with local schools.
