Sort of wishing Roshel (and National Defence) exercised some clause saying: "Um, no. Hang on, Ukraine needs these more right now. We'll get back to you..."

I've watched our guys pretty consitently just chuck the recycling in with the garbage.
Maybe that's just a Hamilton thing though.

Canada already shares an Island with Denmark. Hans Island, jointly administered. It is agreed: every time one of them visits, Danes leave a bottle of Schnapps and a note, Canadians leave a bottle of Rye and a note. This is how it's done.

I usually love reading both Fintan O'Toole and Frank McNally's pieces. And, maybe because I'm a dude, I love reading the sports commentary. It's accurate, unflattering, poignant, with none of the Canadian laziness that comes from hockey reporting.

Because, having lived in both Ireland and Canada, the Irish Times is actually quite a good paper, worth keeping an eye on. The Irish have a slightly different perspective on a great many things. Plus they're solid writers.
