Pundits quickly dismiss monahanium as an alternate energy source, disputing whether it is truly elite enough.

No debate. Epic water park.

We will be manufacturing our oil using air and water as primary inputs using small modular nuclear reactors as the heat source, and getting to work on our first vertical agriculture megastructure.

If I have anything to do with it.

I actually think that's a good idea. This will be a key plank of the Bunk for Mayor 2025 platform. See, the CP political mob is already working, stirring up great ideas.

Install one of those super fast freefall type slides that goes from the 300 level right to centre ice and call it the Face Off.

On the rebuild that started after their multiple Stanley Cups in the early 2020's.

I'd like to be your Chief of Staff, but I'm going to do it Doug Stamper style.

Oh and also I'll be living in that riverside area of Cranston after the great flood of 2023 washed my house all the way down there.

Flames start the 2026 season hoping to to beat Montreal's record of 6 Stanley cups in a 10 year period.

Would love to see salt used on the roads, but that's just me.

During the winter, Roads uses a mixture they call "Pickle" which is 85% sand/gravel and 15% road salt. The benefit is that when the melted ice refreezes the gravel and sand get embedded in it.

I thought the use of salt on the roads lessened the life of vehicles.

I have never been as close to driving my car through a barrier as I was when the hospital parking machine ate my first (very expensive) payment for parking in the middle of the night heading home to get clothes while my wife sat sith our new son in NICU. It was probably good there wasn't a parking attendant around...
