Here's one for the "only in Canada" category. We are in the midst of yet another federal election campaign. The leaders' debates were scheduled - one in English and one in French - for Tuesday and Thursday of this week. So what do you do when the Montreal/Boston game opener of the first round of playoffs is scheduled for the same night as the French language debate? If you're a French Canadian you would view this as a rhetorical question. You reschedule the debate, of course - which is exactly what happened. Tonight the Habs take on the Bruins and there will be no conflict with the political ponderings of those pesky leaders. The debate was moved to last night - the game will be played tonight. No one messes with hockey. Only in Canada, eh....
Go Canucks Go!
