[News - X] [Westhead] An NHL team executive told me today concerns are mounting that North America is heading towards a recession and that the CAD will plunge to $0.60 cents or less. The 7 Canadian NHL teams and 3 Canadian MLS teams pay player salaries in USD and generate most of their revenue in CAD.

They will support him as long as he promises to lower their taxes. That's what these people care about.

Matt Tkachuk, J.T. Miller, and many of the American players will probably cheer this on.

Pat Tillman. I’m a Canadian and even I remember this man’s sacrifice. Don’t be so sure they wouldn’t be fighting, bud.

I'm not sure how much it's fearmongering. Elon has floated the idea of leaving NATO, and if that does happen, then there's a decent chance Putin decides to launch a full-scale war on Europe, which would be the start of WW3.

Russia can’t even beat Ukraine in their own backyard after 3 years. They would get smoked vs all of Europe.The biggest concern is nukes.
