If that was assault, no one would ever leave a business meeting without being charged.

Sounds like the action of someone carrying a personal grudge who's not acting in the public interest.

Sounds legit.

If it was really important or mattered, people should bring that forward now. Otherwise, it's a political stunt.

Further proof that there is no homogenous attitude towards Wab among First Nations. Also sounds like you are actively working against Wab, so I don't know how unbiased your opinion is. Actually, I have a pretty good idea....

Let's be real. You don't speak for all natives anymore than I speak for all white people.

I totally get that part, but clearly hockey wasn't fun enough for him anymore either.

My family has probably done more than 30,000 kms in road trips since 2016. Wouldn't trade those experiences for anything.

I will always wonder how much Wheeler and Scheifele's "leadership" had to do with Byfuglien's decision to quit.

Isn't it pretty obvious by now that the Jets' supposed leaders on the roster are the problem? Not talking about Lowry or Morrissey. Scheifele will get a good return - start shopping him. Chevy has proven himself to be very average and this is his chance to prove otherwise. Time to start looking for a pure playmaker and power forward on the wing to play with Connor on the first line.

Telus Health has been around since 2008. TELUS Corporation established its TELUS Health division in 2008 shortly after its acquisition of Quebec-based Emergis, a health and pharmacy technology company. Since then, the division has grown through acquisitions and maintains investments in health technology companies through its TELUS Health Ventures division.

While complaining we're not spending enough on Defense.

Hang on to your hat!

Also:

Did a little digging (always seem to need to for some claims). The Fed public service is now 50,000 spots larger than in 2010. Our population has grown by 5 million over that same time. Seems sensible to me. https://www.canada.ca/en/treasury-board-secretariat/services/innovation/human-resources-statistics/population-federal-public-service.html

Apparently passports should take 2 years - not 1 year to process.

The "fat". Define, please. Palliser government cut 10% (the "fat") out of Southern Health's budget without defining "fat". Southern Health ran balanced budgets for years prior. That turned out well, didn't it?

The Jays are rounding into form.

But I watch car racing for the crashes!

So you want cuts, then. The point of a budget is to balance revenue and spending (over the short and medium to long term). To suggest that the Federal budget in itself does not involve spending controls is a little simplistic. So what are we cutting?

You piqued by curiousity:

"Is it now a little clearer why the ex-PM offered a generic endorsement of the UCP, rather than a personal one of its leader? The fact that Danielle Smith is a dubious political bar of soap from a marketing point of view is only part of the story. The other part is, just what is an endorsement from Stephen Harper worth these days? After all, he is no longer the populist boy-politician collecting donations in KFC barrels in Calgary basements. Six-and-a-half years after leaving politics, Harper is now a full blown globalist entrepreneur raking in big money with his consulting firm Harper & Associates. His job description apparently entails cozying up to human rights violator Saudi Arabia and tweeting his congratulations to authoritarian politician Viktor Orban for his latest win in Hungary. And there is hay to be made right here in Canada. A case in point. Harper’s firm is paid $240,000 a year by the province of Saskatchewan, in part to open doors for Premier Scott Moe that Harper walked through as prime minister. That’s why Harper was included on a recent provincial government trip to India, a junket that created controversy for Moe back home. Why did he have to drag a highly paid consultant along? Who can tell the exact angle Harper is trying to play by inserting himself now into Alberta’s election conversation? But here’s one way to read it. What we have in Danielle Smith is a politician who is hard to sell, being promoted by a self-styled champion of the little guy who is now very much a member of the elite he has spent so much time demonizing." https://thetyee.ca/Analysis/2023/04/26/Stephen-Harper-Endorses-Danielle-Smith/
