  1. There were pros and cons to the the Wheat Board- the main thing was that teh cons came in and dictated what was going to happen to it. I feel it should have been left up to the farmers to do away or keep it. I think what's left of the WB is now owned by a Saudi corp...
  2. Yeah... after Sandy Hook, and the lack of anyone doing anything... that was game over. They're done.
  3. Here is a good article on smart gun control, it's a start. or... bullet control
  4. Nice to hear some truth and actual facts on fox: They are really fortunate to have her.
  5. "The federal government says it does not believe COVID-19 vaccine shipments to Canada would be affected by export restrictions being considered by the European Union. A report in the New York Times says the EU is finalizing emergency legislation that would give it broad powers to curb exports of COVID-19 vaccines for the next six weeks, as part of its response to supply shortages at home. The report says that would make it harder for pharmaceutical companies producing COVID-19 vaccines in the EU to export them. In an emailed statement, the press secretary for Mary Ng, minister of small business, export promotion and international trade, said Ng's counterparts have assured her that these measures will not affect vaccine shipments to Canada." https://www.cbc.ca/news/politics/vaccine-shipments-canada-eu-1.5961888
  6. This is reassuring: "Last week, Manitoba announced it was piloting a new model at its supersites in Morden and Winnipeg, which it said will streamline delivery by having patients sit in one area while immunizers move between them. On Wednesday, task force members said the new model will increase the number of doses each immunizer can deliver from between six and eight per hour to around 60."
  7. First off: "The news comes as members of Manitoba's vaccine task force announced they will pause expanding vaccine eligibility criteria as appointment capacity has reached its limit. " They need to start ramping up their vaccination plan to accommodate the steady supply of vaccines. Also, is it just rose-coloured glasses or are the covid related deaths going down- a lot?
  8. Makes sense. You would have to cut the redundant programs. Personal tax exemption levels would have to be looked at... probably the easiest way to start implementing it...
  9. Wow... quite the difference in coverage over on fox, Newsmax and oann about the Boulder shooting than the Atlanta one... Is it the amount of victims? Grocery store vrs spa? Race of victims? Race of the shooter? But man, the coverage is completely night and day with these **** stations.
  10. Why do they cover the shootings differently?
  11. Well, you can literally own one of these in the states:
  12. ?? "law-abiding gun owners"? So... non-law abiding gun owners don't get "commonly-owned rifles (AR-15s) and 10+ round mags" ?? Idiots, the lot of them. Law-abiding gun owners until they're not... usually ending up as a mass shooting event...
  13. These are curious moves... its almost as if he had stocks and stakes in the UPSP's main competitors and is making moves to knee cap the USPS....
  14. The choice of the decerning mass shooter... Why the **** are these not banned into oblivion? And why are there so many mass shootings?
  15. Yeah, so... causation.... nevermind:
  16. Damn... going through some twitter feeds and moseying about on the internets and I see mention of the mass shooting... only to finally ******* realize it's not the Atlanta one... it's a whole new one in Boulder, Co... Unbelievable....
  17. Everytime I see her or hear her name, this plays out in my mind's eye. Honestly, it's like her and Empty Greene are trying to out crazy each other...
  18. I really wish they would do some Constantine stuff... the really gritty ****** up **** from Hellblazer.
  19. Lots to unpack here, Here is Russian state TV: Summed up succinctly here: and here: And here: Never thought about the think tanks...
  20. Great Video of Ali- nice cameo from Angelo.
  21. Having little ones in school- I found this to be a very useful tool, so I thought I would share: https://experience.arcgis.com/experience/6e7af13b3ffb447a99734b0119b169d3/ This map that shows infections in schools for the last 14 days is awesome too: https://experience.arcgis.com/experience/6e7af13b3ffb447a99734b0119b169d3/page/page_3/?views=view_10
  22. I have seen a few reports that the AstraZeneca vaccine is ineffectual against the B1351 variant first reported in South Africa. Like I said, there have only been a few reports- anyone have anything more concrete arguing either side?
  23. Edit with multiple takes, sure- but no CGI at all... super impressive.
