I’m not a game day fan these days. That being said I respect the support he’s had from the rest of the cast. I can’t think of anyone who’s been able to age in the public eye the way he has and has had others have his back in such a meaningful and supportive way

With hospitals and schools boards being put under provincial supervisors, we are going to see that while there are efficiencies to be had, these institutions have more of a revenue (funding) problem than they have an out of control spending problem
