Lafleur's funeral was classy, dignified and so respectful. Seeing Trudeau there amongst all that was like trying to mix oil and water.

Unlike Russia, Canada can afford artificial refrigeration. Cadavers arent just left outside Ivan.

If you're not from the area you wouldn't understand, sports stars in MTL are like GODS

[@debbiebgood3791]

Obviously you never saw what he meant, as you must not be from that golden Era. He was a god.

[@julien7337]

He was a cultural icon in Montreal on and off the ice. He deserved a send off like this, what are you talking about

[@CB14.]

I'm gonna kick that dog in your pfp if you dont shut up

[@imnotyourfriendbuddy1883]

I thought the same thing until I learned about what he meant to Montreal, Quebec, and Canada. I'm too young and American to have known.
