So, yeah.
Yeah, that type of thing is taking place.
Yeah, like he's very much, you know, he's an hour or so from Toronto, but very much in a remote area.
He's opening a pub there in Arono, is the name of the town that he's in.
So with his wife, Brianne.
Yeah, that's due to open in August.
So he's in the midst of that while also being part of the...
yeah the punditry team here and like being very busy with sort of various engagements every day sort of leading up to it you know it's you wouldn't recognise the life he's living relatively fair The man went and did Dancing on Ice and everything just flipped on its head it's extraordinary That is I mean that really is what happened it is that sort of one of those sentences where someone says and the rest is history you know this is and then you cut to the image but yeah no met the family and

Yeah, it's strange because I arrived in Montreal last week for their send-off friendly against Ireland.
And sometimes you can just revert to cliche and you start talking about the World Cup.
Ireland are visiting a place with the World Cup buzz.

And that's because some of the local ice hockey players come up on the screen.
That was almost the loudest cheer of the evening.
And I think...
The World Cup buzz, it's mixed.
It really is mixed.
A lot of the headlines here in Toronto, and again, this World Cup, it comes back so much to the finances or the politics.
