Eve and I decided this past summer that 25 years of Vancouver Giants radio was an incredible number to end an incredible journey with an incredible team.
Words will never adequately describe how I feel about what the Toigo family, ownership group and fans have meant to me. The most significant part of working for the Giants is not what I might have contributed to the team or the Whl but who I have become. These 25 years have given me the opportunity to, at 83 yrs, become a better man, a better person. I trust I have become that.
I am humbled by the trust the Vancouver Giants have put in me to publicly promote their brand on both radio and TV the past 25 years. I know “thank you” will never even remotely express the feelings I have in my heart. I treasure the memories the team has poured into my life.
I knew I would be emotional writing this. Now let’s push this Giants team into the playoffs!!
.@SullyCNBC is basically a babbling idiot. He’s an embarrassment to @CNBC !
.@Sportsnet650 you guys have reached a new low!!! Bert and Ernie on three times a day! How cheap do you have to be? Buy some content and show some respect to your listeners. @jasonbrough and @MikeHalford are simply unlistenable.
.@Sportsnet650 how cheap can you guys get? Now you’ve got Bert and Ernie on at 6pm! @jasonbrough @MikeHalford604 are unlistenable at any time of the day. And you wonder why radio is dying. Do better!!!

This guy has more chins than @mattsekeres and looks like him too!
Baier should give Trump a lesson on tariffs! He clearly understands how they work whereas Trump is completely clueless.
This is actually brilliant. Hits a lot of points.
I am incandescent with rage right now. I feel sick to the stomach. A US Vice President stood today on the soil of where so many Americans gave their lives to defeat fascism in Europe. He delivered a disgraceful speech that spat on their graves. Not that we should expect any different, given his boss skipped visiting the graves of fallen Americans in Europe for fear of getting his hair wet. The same man who called the same fallen heroes suckers and losers.
As a Brit that loves America and the American people, I am deeply disturbed at the insults delivered by a man who once described Donald Trump as an “idiot" and said he was "reprehensible." Privately, comparing him to Adolf Hitler.
How times have changed. Vance is now part of the most authoritarian administration in American history. An administration actively seeking to deny bodily autonomy to women. An administration pursuing the same mass deportation of immigrants that Europe witnessed in 1930s Germany. Vance is a man that his own president doesn’t even see as his successor.
He came to Europe to vomit his Christo-fascist bile on leaders from the UK and across Europe, in what appears to be a retribution tour designed to assert American power.
The U.S. are to my knowledge the only NATO country to have invoked Article 5 of the NATO charter after 9/11. We, his European allies, met that call with no questions asked. We sent thousands of soldiers to the battlefields of Afghanistan and Iraq to fight a war on the false premise of Donald Rumsfeld’s ‘known unknowns’. We did this despite millions of our own citizens protesting in the streets of our cities.
Our military stood shoulder to shoulder with his military and we, like many Americans, stood to salute our fallen young men and women returning home day after day. I have tears in my eyes as I write this, thinking of them and their loved ones. Our brave men and women willingly gave their all and far too many made the ultimate sacrifice in support of an American led war.
For the record, 6000 Ukrainian solders server alongside American soldiers in Iraq. This, despite Ukraine not being a member of NATO. In 1994 upon signing the Budapest Memorandum they gave up their nuclear weapons in return for security assurances from the US and the UK. These were then reneged upon in 2014 when Russia invaded Crimea. They were told ‘An assurance is not a guarantee’.
Now, despite their friendship and their brave sacrifice on the battlefields of Ukraine, the President of the United States has decided to abandon them and hand a victory to an indicted war criminal, who illegally invaded the sovereign territory of a US ally. An ally who’s soldiers had previously lost their lives supporting America in its war on terror.
SHAME ON HIM. Shame on the man who dodged the draft and never served a day in defense of his nation. He is a coward and I would gladly call him that to his face. To all those Americans on social media currently posting vile insults to those who have always been there for America, I say, democracy is bigger than you, as you sit anonymously behind your phones posting poison.
America might have the most powerful army on the planet, but remember, that same army fled from Saigon after being handed their ass by a bunch of peasant rice farmers, armed with grenades made from discarded US coke cans. Ukraine have been to the Russian army what the Vietnamese were to you and we salute them.
You might want to throw Ukraine under the bus while stealing there mineral deposits, BUT EUROPE WILL NOT ALLOW THAT TO HAPPEN. I know for sure that the UK will not abandon the Ukrainian people. Our aid to GDP contribution already exceeds that of the US as does Poland, Germany Finland and others.
The U.S. is no longer a reliable ally and if need be, we will stand with Ukraine without America.
As for your pathetic tariffs, do your worst. You will soon have no friends but thugs and autocrats, so I’m sure Wun Dum Fuc will be right at home.
This is a plan!!! Alienating Red states is stupid!
John Rustad and the Conservative caucus just released our 10-point plan to address the tariffs. The BC NDPs plan to ban Kentucky bourbon isn't going to do anything for BC.
British Columbians need a serious plan. So here it is:
1. Immediately negotiate a Canada Wide Free Trade Agreement.
Interprovincial barriers are the equivalent of between a 21 and 25% tariff. Open flow of all goods and commodities, including energy, will help to offset our dependency on the USA.
2. Immediately call back the legislature to implement a Fiscal Emergency Bill.
a) Bill should ask for additional fiscal room to implement port and border security measures.
b) Bill should identify additional funding to reopen BC’s trade offices foreign countries.
c) Bill should suspend all but the essential requirements in the Environment Assessment Act.
d)Bill should suspend all but the essential requirements for development permits.
e) Bill should implement a quick 3 month review to eliminate as much government wasteful spending as possible to get our fiscal house in order.
3. Work with LNG Canada to immediately advance phase 2 of their Kitimat LNG project. This would inject billions in additional construction activity into BC’s economy.
4. Immediately provide a 10 year extension to the permitting of existing natural gas pipeline projects.
5. Immediately eliminate the Carbon Tax to reduce costs for consumers and businesses.
6. Immediately eliminate the requirement for LNG projects to use electricity for compression.
7. Immediately eliminate the CO2 emissions caps/targets to unleash investments in BC.
8. Work with the Mining Sector to approve and advance the approximate 17 mining projects in BC that are ready to go. This would inject about $36 billion in economic activity during construction, create 10s of thousands of jobs and significantly increase BC’s GDP and revenue.
9. Immediately strike a task force to provide targeted cost reductions for BC’s forest sector.
10. Stop work towards a power line from the Northeast to the Northwest and replace the project with natural gas fired electricity generation directly in the Northwest.
This is our plan to #FightForBC.
.If Miller thinks playing hockey for 10M/year is stressful to the point of needing a mental health break, he should volunteer at any Food Bank to see what real stress looks like.

.@TSN_Sports @Sportsnet where is the men’s golf?We know it’s on the @GolfChannel in the US! With the number of channels you guys have got, it’s an absolute disgrace that Canadians aren’t seeing it on cable tv. Is it anywhere? Maybe sit this one out and just let the pros show it.
Agreed. @realkyper is a sad excuse for a radio personality! Adds nothing.
Replying to @sunhornby
Now let's follow that up with the firing of @RealKyper, radio analyst Chris Leroux and Kevin Barker.
.@ScottWapnerCNBC is horrible at everything he does. Surely you can do better!! Click.
.@ThomasDrance @Sportsnet650 The Pettersson knee thing is total bullshit. He hit golf balls every off night at University Golf Club all during the playoffs. Full drivers….not something someone resting a knee injury would do. A completely bogus excuse for horrible play.
.@ScottWapnerCNBC is a complete incompetent joke. @CNBC please find a replacement.
The issue is that he’s taking a long term rental out of the market and basically running an unlicensed hotel. This is exactly why governments are taking action.
Replying to @brettdrc
Your argument lacks credibility because you suggest that this individual is living in his home and renting out a portion. He’s not taking anything of the market and his efforts for putting up with other strangers in his home is his compensation
.@BlueJays Fatty Vladdy is a disgrace to baseball! He hits a solo HR to make it 9-3 and he dances around the bases. Smarten up clown!
