GDT: Hey, hey, we want you to stay, John Forslund

[tarheelhockey]

My only concern is the precedent of billionaires using foundations like personal slush funds. TD already used the foundation to look good about paying other employees.

Didn't stop me from contributing—just made me realize that when you pay the attorneys and politicians to write the rules even the best intentions of the rest of us don't really matter.

I don’t work for, but have worked with the Canes Foundation. They’re legit and not a “slush fund”.

Sorry. I screwed up your 420 party.

How do we get this in front of more people? Share it on our social media, yes, but we need to get it in front of the whole fanbase somehow.

I think someone needs to bite the bullet and post it on the Facebook Canes group.




NOT IT!!

Maybe @saraciv420 would be willing to help?

I can't imagine that would be a good idea for her to stick her nose in between the organization and John. Do interviews and ask questions? Yes, by all means. Promote our fantasy and advocate for this solution? No.

It's a terrible idea. Yes.

True. Let’s get Tripp to promote it then.

 

[tarheelhockey]

FFS guys, why bother Sara or Tripp over this when we could go straight to Tom Dundon?

Fans passing a hat to pay employee salaries? YES PLEASE

I completely understand that—but the Foundation was used to pay salary. While COVID 19 is unprecedented, that struck me as unconventional. In fact, that would be something @saraciv420 could ask.

Fine. I’ll do it.

Done. Chipped in $30.

To be fair, it didn’t really pay salary. It gave financial relief to employees who were furloughed. It’s not like they were owed money and Dundon dipped into the Foundation to pay it off. This was more like a Red Cross type effort for people who were suddenly cut off with no warning.
