When Newfoundlander Jane Rowe led the sale of MLSE to Rogers and Bell in 2012, it was considered a big win for the ON Teachers' Pension Plan, and it was a big profit. But Bell just sold its piece at a 750% profit (62%/year) so I imagine they feel alright. sportico.com/business/team-…

I grew up with Jazz but never played or listened enough to be an expert. Nos 1, 2, 9, 11, 13, 16, and 20 are a great introduction for the curious, but more important is probably to pick a couple of full albums rather than individual tracks.

Weird data that won't fit in my story: Newfoundland and Labrador made up 30% of Canada's exports to the Netherlands last year. Somehow, that includes $1.5m in vodka.

Could Newfoundland and Labrador sponsor a fourth-tier football team from the U.S.? That might be the place to recruit medical professionals.

It’s not every day that one is scooped by his 80-year-old father (Roger filed the ATIPP and wrote for the Shoreline). cbc.ca/news/canada/ne…

With respect to Jeff Marek, who gave great insight on the Spittin Chiclets podcast, I'll drop a reminder that allNewfoundlandLabrador broke the story of NL looking to get back into the QMJHL (Sept 20) While not sports, we've got more big scoops coming in a few hours. Subscribe!

I almost never stay at the House of Assembly into the evening, but hearing Eddie Joyce list off which Liberals he trusts (and how he doesn't trust the rest) was almost worth it.

Nighttime House of Assembly banter is often much more entertaining than daytime. Of course, one needs to actually stay up and want to watch it....

In April, 2024, I wrote about NF seeing the same-kind of left-right, urban-rural split common in the rest of Canada, but not typically part of the post-confederation history on this island. Tonight continues that trend. This may be wind in the sails of the NL PCs.

This is so lame. What's the most generic thing we can do to be like the rest of Canada? And can we please pay $85,000 to do it? vocm.com/2025/06/18/cit…

Ujiri is the best ever Raps GM. A tireless worker with a great eye for talent and one of the most creative dealmakers. But he falls in love with his own guys and prioritizes talent over fit to high degree. Maybe it was just time. Thanks, Masai.
