Angus Reid has joined Abacus Data in confirming that the Conservative have overtaken the Liberals. As I wrote in last week's National Post column, Carney's political honeymoon is gradually coming to an end -- But what do I know, right? 🤣. Onward.

Here's the bigger question. Who on earth felt the White Sox's 2025 "playoff hopes" were based in reality? 🤣.

Come to think of it, @TheAJMendez and @Aimee_Garcia. I'd be happy to write a column about your comic books. If you're willing to send me a review copy or two, please add my X handle and DM me for an address. Otherwise, let your publisher know and I'll arrange it with them. Tx!.

#1 Sinner beat #25 Auger-Aliassime 6-1 3-6 6-3 6-4 in the US Open SFs. Very good match. Extremely high quality. Interesting stat. The only 2 sets that Sinner has dropped in the tournament have been to Canadian players. One to Shapovalov (3rd round), and the other to FAA.

Ken Dryden, RIP. One of the greatest goalies in NHL history. Led the Montreal Canadiens to 6 Stanley Cups. Won 5 Vezina Trophies and 1 Conn Smythe Trophy. Was a Liberal MP (2004-2011). Served as Minister of Social Development (2004-2006). My condolences to his family and friends.
Ken Dryden, the legendary Montreal Canadiens goaltender who backstopped the team’s 1970s dynasty to six Stanley Cups, has passed away at the age of 78 following a battle with cancer. News release ↓.

6.5 million views in less than 12 hours to this one video clip alone (as I write this). Views of other clips/videos around the world have probably pushed this moment into the hundreds of millions -- or more. Well done, @TheAJMendez. And welcome back!.

#2 Alcaraz beats #7 Djokovic 6-4 7-6 6-2 in the US Open SFs. It's the first time the Spaniard has reached the final at Flushing Meadows since he won the tournament in 2022. Dominant performance over one of the greatest tennis players of all time.

#3 Dabrowski-Routliffe beat #1 Siniakova-Townsend 6-4 6-4 to win the US Open women's doubles. It's their 2nd US Open crown as a team in the past 3 years. Dabrowksi, who lives in Ottawa, also has two GS mixed doubles titles to her credit. Well done!.
Dabrowski and Routliffe reign supreme in New York, overcoming Siniakova/Townsend to claim the crown! 🙌

This is nothing more than a political stunt that won't improve the party's fortunes - or change the course of an election. Putting this aside, I strongly doubt it will be approved. The now-defunct Progressive Canadian Party tried the same thing over 20 years ago. Its.
Update from the Alberta Party name change to Progressive Conservative:.-94% of Alberta Party members voted for the name change. -The party officially submitted the name change request with Elections Alberta on August 29. -The party is hopeful the name change will be official by.

Mayweather and Tyson were both great fighters in their prime. That goes without saying. While I don't think anyone was necessarily clamouring for this exhibition bout, there you have it.
BREAKING: Mike Tyson and Floyd Mayweather agree to an exhibition fight, per @TMZ_Sports 🚨🤯. Both fighters have signed contracts and the fight is scheduled for Spring 2026. WOW. 🍿

One quick follow-up to the previous post. Do I make mistakes in my political analysis and predictions? Of course! We all do. The big difference? I admit to them, whereas some of my contemporaries don't. (Even corrected a few in columns and opeds, for the record.).

No surprise. She's been in the news cycle for weeks - and it's completely her own doing. Underpaid the stamp duty owed on her apartment (£40,000), initially blamed her legal advisers. and finally accepted blame. If she had done the last thing first, she'd still be in cabinet.

Eagles beat Cowboys 24-20 in the NFL season opener. Philly played tough in the crucial moments. Dallas had chances to win, but couldn't capitalize. Good game, all things considered. Hoping for a better result in Week 2. #DallasCowboys.
