Back in Canada

Back home last night. Passing through Vancouver airport, the major news story seemed to be that some guy in the NHL celebrated a goal a little more than was socially acceptable, for which he has been harshly criticized. They showed the clip a few times and then came all the commentary. They even had Don Cherry-- who in Canada has as much credibility as Bill O'Reilly or Sean Hannity--commenting on it.

It's true that the celebration may have been appropriate for an overtime goal that wins the Stanley Cup. But is this really Canada's biggest news story now?

They I realized they're finally playing hockey again. Now that's news.
