Most of my country's cultural moments usually involve either hockey or politics.

I am sitting on the couch with my knee iced and elevated, watching the last half-hour of Much’s all-day Tragically Hip commemoration, waiting for the CBC to put its Olympics coverage on hold for a few hours so they can air the final Hip show live on every platform they broadcast

I thank the CBC and I love The Hip. Oh Gord.

As someone posted on Twitter, I hope he had the best sleep of his life when he went to bed last night after that show. He more than earned it.

I'm sorry about your knee, and even sorrier about Gord Downie. Cancer sucks.

As the saying goes, fuck cancer.

(My knee is feeling better now, though. A whole weekend on the couch is helpful that way.)
