frandroid: Montréal Canadians NHL team logo (hockey)
My long-suffering Podcast Friday queue will not get any reprieve as I just pluck from a currently playing series to bring in particular to [profile] ioklopon's attention:
Canadaland Commons has been looking at the underbelly of Canadian hockey, and boy is it nasty. Seriously wondering if there's any other sport/national system in the world where there is such a density of nastiness, from corruption to child abuse/sexual abuse, and of course our good old friend racism. (Yeah I see you raising your hand in the back, U.S. Gymnastics :( )

I gotta pair this with probably the best and most bitter song ever written about hockey.

frandroid: A key enters the map of Palestine (palestine)
For English Canadians, Québec is sometimes a political twilight zone... In this instance, it is a place where a right-wing shock-jock is the one siding with the Palestinians and unsurprisingly, being a shock jock, comparing Israel to the Nazis (d'un blogue sur cyberpresse.ca to cite the source, although not really worth reading). Aijjaz Ahmad has allies in unlikely places ;]
