Summary
As history was made this month, The Great One sat in a luxury box with the NHL commissioner and... the conspiracy-theorist director of the FBI. Has Wayne Gretzky become a political Mr. Magoo? Or legitimate friends with an American president who's trying to make the GOAT’s homeland his 51st state? Bruce Arthur, the Toronto Star columnist and conscience of Canada, says our neighbors are "incandescently angry.” And we investigate the world of Kash Patel and the Congressional Hockey Caucus.
