“What’s with (the CBC) not televising the Oilers games? There’s been at least four this playoff season that I haven’t been able to watch! I can’t afford Sportsnet, and due to chronic illness, I just can’t go out to a bar or a restaurant to watch the game. I’m very disappointed,” said an Oilers fan on X.

"The government won't provide me with free sportsball!"

"My malingering for welfare includes fake mobility symptoms so I can't leave my house to go to a bar or restaurant if I care that much!"

Governments have long put on circuses to appease and prevent revolt. Easier than doing a good job. But canada and the woke can't and won't even do that.

I don't blame the government for lack of effort when their tax cattle are so weak they can't even walk, much less revolt.

We pay >$1.5b/yr in taxes for it and hockey is legally our national sport. The idea we couldn't see the semi-finals featuring a Canadian team on free TV, especially since we got to see the 2 American teams in the other conference, is insane.

Even more insane that they skipped it to air the Canadian Screen Awards (that nobody cares about, there hasn't been a decent Canadian movie since Passchendaele in 2008), Just for Laughs (which airs about 200 other times on CBC), and Canada’s Ultimate Challenge which is apparently some Amazing Race knockoff.

Lacrosse is still the national Summer sport.

So, I guess we're both correct.

Fuck face.
