Mike is a tremendous scout but a better man. I’ve worked along side of him both in Vancouver and Toronto. I can truly say he is a great friend and mentor. A trailblazer in our profession. Legendary storyteller. Huge heart. Wonderful person. Huge congrats! 💙@MapleLeafs

This decision has stripped clubs of a powerful community outreach tool and removed meaningful support for Special Initiatives, all to protect a select few who do not want to answer any questions about their choices. I hope the NHL reconsiders in order to remain a leader in DEI.
I am deeply disappointed in the NHL’s decision to ban on-ice support for community causes. The NHL has been an enthusiastic, invaluable supporter of a number of important causes and groups – to name just a few; Indigenous peoples, first responders, military heroes, cancer survivors, women in hockey, victims of civic disasters, people of color, and, of course, the LGBTQ+ community. This new league policy strips clubs and players of one of the most important and visible ways of supporting causes they care about. Let’s be clear: this is not inclusion or progress. This decision does not grow the game, and does not make our fans feel welcome. Fans look to teams and the league to show they are welcome, and this directive closes a door that’s been open for the last decade. We will not lose the incredible progress we’ve made in inclusion over the last decade, and we are counting on the League for continued support and leadership in this area. -Brian Burke

Canada should follow the U.S. and recommend breast cancer screening for women in their 40s

Thanks @CBCGloria for covering this important subject. cbc.ca/listen/live-radio/1-4… All women, age 40+ in BC should take advantage of the excellent mammography screening program @BCCancer. They can book their own appointment without a requisition.

Kudos to Dr. Liana Huang for tackling this. I believe that she genuinely tried to get to the truth, but by giving voice to members of the task Force, she fell prey to the flaw of “bothsidesism” that perpetuates misinformation. I respectfully submit my comments and corrections. 🧵
