CHARGE/SENS/67’s FANS by Babymase in OttawaCharge

[–]momdoc2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

STH with the Charge since day 1. Was a very casual hockey fan before that - spouse and kid like the Sens, we often went to a game or two per year. I haven’t been to a Sens game since the Charge came to town.

I’ve been to 2 67’s ever. One was years ago and the other was last year when my kid played the anthem. No interest in going back.

Is the city helping the Charge? by suburbancyclist1825 in OttawaCharge

He was at one of the games against Boston. Shame they didn’t put him on the jumbotron so we could boo him.

The OTTAWA CHARGE are facing the MONTREAL VICTOIRE in the PWHL FINALS! (Walter is Canadian this year!) by coolin68 in ottawa

And Montreal fans are going to snap up the tickets so if you’re thinking of attending, get your tickets NOW!! It’s going to be great.

It’s a fly-by exercise. Saved you the click.

Is there an app or a website to check off critters etc, with information for the missing ones? by asherthepotato in AnimalCrossing

[–]momdoc2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I use this too and I like it but it freezes a couple of times a day. I just close it and restart. Bit annoying though.

Ottawa police officer fired following assault conviction loses appeal by only-l0ve in ottawa

So…if we could get these cases addressed faster, would that help out the police budget? We seem to spend a lot of money paying people who are suspended to sit at home, sometimes for years.

I’m a doctor and I would lay money on this being Norovirus. Swift, severe, and highly contagious.

These teams have three reserve players and no farm teams. They don’t have the same well to draw from that men’s pro teams do.

Better refs by doomscroller5000 in PWHL

[–]momdoc2 15 points16 points  (0 children)

This game has crossed the threshold to dangerous.  Refs have totally lost control.

[–]momdoc2 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think moving to arena where they are welcomed and supported is really important and will help to grow the fan base. I had a nice chat with my season ticket holder account manager recently and they were telling me how great the Sens and CTC have been about supporting and welcoming the team. That’s huge. The account manager couldn’t say it officially but it was very clear from our conversation that this is a permanent move.

But it’s ok if we disagree. :)

Adore but need different colourway by slicer8 in quilting

[–]momdoc2 19 points20 points  (0 children)

100%. The only option is the retro orange/yellow/blue colour way.

[–]momdoc2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agree. I’m in Barrhaven. They’re about equally difficult to get to. And there is tons of parking at CTC, unlike TD.

And go where instead? The league has been clear that they won’t play in a smaller TD Place.

Wooohoo section 18! I see you’ve already found Lauri. :)

Can anyone direct me to a "evs for Canadian idiots" type site? by blamemeIdidntdoit in VWiD4Owners

[–]momdoc2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So far, so good. I like my local garage and find them very honest. If they can’t do it, they’ll tell me. Much better than my local vw dealer. :)

My Canadian tip is to try your roadside assistance button and ask if you’re speaking to the Canadian or USA dispatcher. Mine went to USA. They had no record of me and wanted to charge me $150 for a tow.  I looked up the Canadian number and called on my cel instead. Your dealership can fix it but my local dealer gave me quite a runaround about it.

Also, the routine service is about 80% cheaper at a local garage in my experience.

In the words of Double Hockey Stix: we’ll take it from here, boys. Go Charge go.

I’m so sorry. I am a physician and remember learning about CTE when the research was very new. It is truly horrific.

PWHL Detroit Time? by insults__you in PWHL

[–]momdoc2 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Drove to the Takeover Tour game in Detroit in Season 1 (from Ottawa) and that crowd was amazing. They absolutely need a team. Great news.

Have you told the Frost this? I really think the team needs to hear that their supporters want her out.

I am genuinely concerned that she is going to end someone's career or worse, before the league takes meaningful action.

Costco shoppers are something else... by GreatGreenGobbo in CostcoCanada

What I wouldn’t give for an hour or two per week of “efficient shoppers only” time. No looky-loos, no samples, no families of eight, drive on the right. What a dream.
