got shot #1 of Pfizer today. I can feel it working. My 5G microchip game is already way stronger and I have this weird impulse to go mow Bill Gates' lawn (he lives across the lake from me)

classier than durant.

Yeah but why cover the CFL when they can stuff a mic in Jeff ONeils face and let him verbally fellate the Leafs?

"I need to drive my two-year-old to daycare tomorrow morning. To ensure we arrive alive, we won't take public transit (Oscar Grant). I removed all air fresheners from the vehicle and double-checked my registration status (Daunte Wright), and ensured my license plates were visible (Lt. Caron Nazario). I will be careful to follow all traffic rules (Philando Castille), signal every turn (Sandra Bland), keep the radio volume low (Jordan Davis), and won't stop at a fast food chain for a meal (Rayshard Brooks). I'm too afraid to pray (Rev. Clementa C. Pickney) so I just hope the car won't break down

For me being fiscally conservative means being fiscally responsible. Keeping deficits low/nil when not in a crisis. Using science and research to fund social programming. Using deficit spending to keep the economy moving. Finding a balance between taxation and growth.

Tons of vintage CFL games turning up on youtube, like this one from 1995. I'm not 100% sure but I think it has Milt's first two Bomber TDs in it. It's his second game and the announcers don't mention if he had a touchdown in his first or not. He has a couple funny rookie moments in the game, there's one bit where he and his return partner get all Keystone Kops. Ugh, those navy helmets, what were they thinking? Anyone else getting their CFL fix via old games on Youtube?

Cuts to Healthcare. Cuts to Education. One of the worse vaccination rollouts in Canada but Pallister has $25 million for a redevelopment fund for the downtown Bay building? **** this *******! **** the entire Manitoba PC Party!

Under the O ( for old man ) 63 .........Bingo !!! Booked in for Sunday !

In and out of the Convention Center this morning in 25 minutes. Had the Pfizer vaccine- yaaaay!!!

I had no idea internment camps and hotels were synonymous terms... **** Carlson. What a dogwhistling pile of dog crap.

Does one have to Why not punch both?

it's ******* scary, no matter how you slice it, and you absolutely do not want any part of it. Stay home unless you absolutely HAVE to be out and avoid contact with as many people as possible. In AB, where we're a giant tire fire, I am really wishing for another "lock down" (meh) until June, when a lot more people are vaccinated. Things could get really really bad over the next two months if they don't do something...

Have you looked at the UCP in Alberta lately?

fwiw...

How does one not accept that climate change exists? WTF?

Wife and I just got the shot. I am ecstatic. Astrazeneca from local Pharmacy. The dude at Regent Park Pharmacy was awesome. He walked us through everything, assuaged my Wife's and my own concerns. Told us what to expect and what to watch out for. Darrel is awesome!

All that said, I booked it anyways. Going Friday!

I'll never stop caring. I'll take every little shred of news. This league means everything to me.... I'll take whatever I can get.

HAVING A BIG NOSE IS NO EXCUSE FOR NOT WEARING A MASK. FOR EXAMPLE, I STILL WEAR UNDERWEAR.

Saw this posted in response to the same boat pic, it sounds about right

I think it's really tough for us to understand what it is like to a black person in the US. Do we have racism in Canada? Of course we do. But people of colour here don't live in terror of having their children pulled over. Milt Stegal's comments a while back made me really think . He said they weren't worried at all about their driving aged kid driving recklessly, drinking and driving, speeding.........All they concentrated on was what to do when you are stopped by the police. They live in fear of it. I dont think we CAN understand it., I dont think we CAN understand what it is like to see wh

I feel personally attacked...

So, what does that mean for the Leafs?

Ambrosie had 2 plays this whole pandemic beg the federal government for money with no plan, or try and sell out to a league that doesn't exist. What great leadership.

Arrived at Morden Super site for 5:40 appointment.Came in at 5:25 .Needled and Done and waiting the 15 minutes by 5:45. It can't get much better than that.

I don't buy that "a significant number of people want 4 down football"....bullshit. A significant number of people want the NFL. There's a difference there. It's not like they want the NFL because it's 4 downs...they want it because of the hype. People who only watch NFL aren't suddenly going to start watching the CFL because it's 4 downs. I refuse to believe that.

"I empathize with these people, but **** em" is what I read. I'm guessing you haven't ever attended or listened to any Truth and Reconciliation dialogues. You should. You live in a black and white world of right and wrong that has never existed.

Happy Easter to everyone here at Morning Big Blue. Let's hope that we soon emerge from the darkness & uncertainty of Covid 19. Stay healthy & vigilant.

The concept of "defunding the police" has been deliberately and widely misrepresented. About 80% of the callouts police go to can be better handled by Mobile Crisis Units and are really non-criminal events. The "defunding" movement wants money to go to services that are more effectively handed without police presence. This would free up police resources to handle serious incidents, resulting in better policing and fewer people taken off to jail.

I hate being a cranky old man but when I read that I just want to go on a old man rant about people having no common sense. I KNOW people that have spent their life using crutches because of polio. It's not that long ago. Vaccines saved everyone from that. F##k people are stupid !

I always thought Gary Doer was a good example of fiscally responsible and socially left. There was a good reason Harper sent him off to be the US ambassador . I think he scared the hell out of him. If the Federal Libs had got a hold of him he would have been tough to defeat.

It's not even "progressive" anymore. It's just living in reality. The world is changing. Keep up or **** off.

This happened yesterday and it is important information for particular age group. A friend had his 1st dose of the vaccine at the vaccination center. Afterwards he began to have blurred vision on the way home. When he got home, he called the vaccination center for advice and to ask if he should go see a doctor or be hospitalized. He was told NOT to go to a doctor or a hospital, but just return to the vaccination center and pick up his glasses. * -Shared from a friend.

Hope everyone remembers when the conservatives under Harper pulled this off: (ela is experimental lakes area, harper saved seven million dollars closing it down ) The decision to abruptly defund the ELA was widely condemned by the Canadian and international scientific community. The scientific journal Nature in 2012, described the decision as "disturbing", and said that it "is hard to believe that finance is the true reason" for the closure.[21] An open letter from five prominent scientific organizations, the Association for the Sciences of Limnology and Oceanography, the Ecological

Yes, his speech was progressive, then the party's real platform came out. Anti-science, anti-indigenous, usual alt-right platform. They are who they are. And, this is the party that's going to lead Canada? What a joke they are.

Boom!!! What a deal!!!

I'd rather the medical community be forthright with the public than not, regardless of the certainty; science is ever evolving, anyway. And let's be honest: skeptics and deniers are by and large lost causes.

Actual CFL news?? By gar, it's been awhile! ^^ that above quote is straight outta the Mike O'Shea handbook..... Also, re: 2021 season..... https://www.tsn.ca/cfl/video/what-next-week-s-bog-meeting-means-to-the-future-of-the-2021-cfl-season~2182003 important part of above: Team reps are meeting daily, and there is a board of governors meeting on Tuesday, after which they're expected to announce the delay of the start of the season. Lalji believes they do not want just an open-ended "season is postponed indefinitely" statement, and are instead wanting to have a h

4 (1) Winnipeg Blue Bombers — Les Maruo, LB, Japan The first Japanese born player to ever start in Division One college football, Maruo spent much of his childhood in Wichita, Kansas before going to UTSA. He’s a mean, violent linebacker who moves really well and will instantly be a core special teams player for Winnipeg.

I used to hear about police shootings at traffic stops and despite the horror I would always on the back of my white privileged mind say “yeah, but why did the black man not just listen to police commands and do as he was told. Should not have escalated to that level, BUT if the victim had just complied then we would not be here”. Then came cell video from bystanders. Seeing cops plant guns on the dead perp after police shootings to match their story that the suspect engaged in a high risk situation that forced them to shoot. Told myself “Ok, I have to concede that there are bad cops out th

Me: I don't want Chevy to mortgage the future on some depth D that probably won't work out. Also me: I'm bored, Do something, Chevy!

Travis Rudolph sounds like he was raised by two loving parents. Here is a pic of his dad Darryl, taking a break from his loving wife children and grandchildren (neglecting them, you could say) to answer a few questions about his son. The news reports his dad was shot to death. True, but it wasn't murder, it was an accidental discharge. THAT'S tragic. Sometimes, unfortunately, 2 loving parents can make all the right decisions and their kid can still grow up to make the wrong decisions. Hugs and bedtime stories are a great start, but the world around you and your unique experienc

It is very difficult for us "normies" to understand the mindset created by centuries of poverty, abuse and neglect. One one occasion, I had to interview a black male who had grown up in south Chicago and was facing serious charges. At one point, I asked him what his reaction was to what he was accused of (and had admittedly done). His reply still sends chills up my spine: "I don't care if I live or die, so imagine how little I care if you or anyone else dies".

At what point to we stop making excuses for the league and just admit they've ****** up this entire situation?

The variant B117 is really starting to ramp up in terms of cases, looking West is seems like is was a good idea for the MB Gov to not loosen restrictions, more vaccines coming into Canada next week and next month so we need to get those into the arms as soon as possible cause this variant is close to getting out of control

Except their country doesn't border with a seemingly insane country...
