🔥🔥 Hot question of the day 🔥🔥

✅ @simisara980’s🔥 question of the day: 

Coming up later in the show, we will be speaking Jeremy Allingham about his new book, Major Misconduct: The Human Cost of Fighting in Hockey. The book tells the story of three hockey players who made a career out of fighting, and what it ultimately cost them.

In your opinion, is fighting a necessary part of professional hockey? 

Yes, makes the game exciting!

No, too dangerous.

Liberals, Conservatives in close race as Green support drops 4 points: Ipsos poll

As the election reaches its halfway point, the Conservatives are maintaining a slim lead over the incumbent Liberals, according to a new Ipsos poll. The poll, conducted exclusively for Global News, shows that 37 per cent of voters surveyed would vote Conservative if an election were held tomorrow ⁠— a one-point gain since last week. Almost two weeks after Justin Trudeau’s blackface scandal, the poll indicated that 34 per cent of decided voters would choose the Liberal Party ⁠— up two points from last week ⁠— while the NDP’s Jagmeet Singh remains at 15 percent of the vote, same as last week. “It’s really become a two-horse race,” said Darrell Bricker, president of Ipsos. “Consistently, the Conservatives are outpacing the Liberals.”

Is the collapse of Forever 21 a sign that ‘fast fashion’ may be going out of style? 

Forever 21, the low-price fast-fashion chain, is ceasing all operations in Canada. The Los Angeles-based company announced Sunday that it has filed for bankruptcy in both the U.S. and Canada. The “wind-down” of the Canadian arm is part of plans to restructure and refocus the business. The retailer currently employs approximately 2,000 people at its 44 locations across Canada. What led to this closure, and what does it mean for the future of “fast fashion”?
