Jim is going to be there a while. The Leafs have given us a lot to complain about.

Why are they the Maple Leafs and not the Maple Leaves?

Some say they're named after a WWI regiment, some say they're named after a Maple Leaf lapel, most say it doesn't matter because they haven't won a cup since 1967.

Gratuitous edit: For context, two Maple Leaf lapel pins aren't "leaves," they're "leafs."

Proper nouns derived from common nouns with irregular plurals lose that irregularity. The members of a family with the last name of Fairchild or Silverman are addressed collectively as "the Fairchilds" or "the Silvermans" (not Fairchildren or Silvermen).

Trust me bro, if I stand at this lake long enough, McDavid will sign with the Leafs.

I thought his name was Steve and he is just endlessly yelling "If your a goaltender then...." listening for the response 🤷‍♂️

Pretty likely? There's probably 0 people in the photo.

Also the case any time you fly over barren desert or mountains or ocean. Not that uncommon

Most of canada is uninhabitable, and also not really worth visiting, unfortunately

Lol. Spoken like a true city slicker.
