Uhhh… your memory is failing, my friend. And this was sent after the dinner, not before. Have the receipts. I don’t begrudge you in any way, but let’s be truthful.

We’re more than doubling penalties on ticket scalpers to $25,000 to put them on notice: If you break the law and rip people off, there will be consequences. news.ontario.ca/en/release/1…

I have just filed a complaint with the Ministry of Public and Business Service Delivery and Procurement against the City of Toronto for its apparent violation of section 2(3) of the Ticket Sales Act, after it admitted buying 3,500 World Cup tickets and scalping them for a profit

This is the wildest World Cup story yet. If someone in Toronto sells a ticket above face value they get fined $25,000 yet the city of Toronto bought 3,500 World Cup tickets early and then sold them to taxpayers at a markup as a “revenue generation strategy.” What the hell man.

Today, we remember a legend. On this day in history, Harambe would have celebrated another birthday. An icon that became part of internet history, American culture, and an entire generation’s timeline. Tomorrow marks 10 years since we lost him. Ten years since the moment the world stopped scrolling and collectively mourned something bigger than a meme. He became a symbol of loyalty, strength, chaos, unity, and the strange beauty of the internet bringing millions of people together for one cause: never forgetting Harambe. Everyone remembers where they were when they heard the news. And somehow, a decade later, his legacy still lives on. Gone, but never forgotten. Rest easy to a true patriot. 🕊️🇺🇸 May 27, 1999 — May 28, 2016 Forever in our hearts.

Canada issued US$3.5 billion in USD denominated debt, issued at a spread of 2 basis points (0.02%) from US Treasuries. The world wanted US$13.5 billion. The world really wants our debt.

Today’s agreement between Airbus and AirAsia is the largest single order of commercial aircraft in Canada’s history. 150 Airbus A220-300 aircraft will be built by Canadian workers on Canadian factory floors — supporting thousands of careers across Canada and here in Mirabel, from the skilled trades to engineering.
