Exactly, We don't need Meredith. So, why even mention him? He couldn't crack the roster now even if he wanted to come back.

Who cares?

They actually had Tuvok on the last episode, well sort of.... it was a changeling. Glad they put Discovery out of its misery.

In 2012, an AB PC govt Minister Thomas Lukazek was door knocking in his Edmonton constituency during the AB provincial election. Somehow things went sideways at the door of one of his constituents in Edmonton & he got into a fist fight with the Homeowner. He was charged with assault but I think he got off as he was claiming self defense as he claimed the guy in the house attacked him. Like, this is Alberta, folks. The entertainment is just beginning. Yeeee Haaaa! Johnson was appointed by Trudeau. With ties to the Trudeau Foundation. As well as Trudeau also having appointed him to another position in government is my understanding. But yes to answer your question, someone who is separate from government & politics. Someone who has no political ties with any party.

I can accept what you say is correct. However, Johnson's reputation will suffer if he doesn't recommend an enquiry. It's really a lose-lose for him.

Johnson may have all the qualifications but that connection to the Trudeau family will hang over him. Plus the fact Trudeau appointed him will also hurt is integrity as well. I've seen more than a few headlines about how accepting this position will just drag him down rather than help him.

Fanbase apathy has truly set in. They have no chance to advance even if they make the playoffs. They may win a game or two & take the opening series to 5 or 6 games but they'll lose. I don't care if they make the playoffs or not. I doubt if I'll spend a lot of timne watching. Just waiting for the CFL season to start.

From what I've seen & read it seems most parliamentarians want a public enquiry. I don't tyhink that Johnson by doing things in private will satify anyone with his findings. Disappointed how partisan our democracy has become if there is political intereference by foreign players.

So did I. Check again, he is a family friend of Trudeau. And try to keep it civil. I'm not here to call anyone names or point fingers because they don't like what I'm saying. Those days for me are over. At least I'm trying to be more patient. https://nationalpost.com/opinion/carson-jerema-trudeau-family-friend-david-johnston-not-the-man-to-restore-election-confidence

Neither do you. That is your assumption. All the more reason for a federal enquiry to clear it up & have things out in the open. So what if Johnson was Governor General? Does that give him some special pass or something? Trudeau appointed that former lady astronaut as GG & she turned out to be one of the nastiest people to ever hold down that job. She was forced to resign after being GG for less than 2 years. So, it means nothing to me if Trudeau appoints a former Harper GG at all as his "rapporteur".

Sure, rage farming over the legitimacy of our democracy & elections when the final results are at stake. Trudeau knew about this since 2016 & did nothing. Other countres at least tightened things up once they found out it happened to them but not Trudeau. Why? Why would he let enemy foreign governments interfere in our elections & do nothing about it over the last two elections? Is this happening as well at the civic & provincial levels as well?

No, I never said that. I said that I'd never heard of the term rapporteur & neither had most Canadians. That is, until last week when Trudeau appointed Johnson, who is a family friend. A federal enquiry means an independent judge/commissioner completely separate from the government is appointed to investigate the claims. He/she may appoint other Commissioners to assist in making a report. They may enter any public building or department & demand to see any information they deem important to the investigation. They may subpoena information & they have the power to make any individual testify & cooperate with said inquiry. Which means the investigation is open & more far reaching. And there are hearings in public. A rapporteur appointed by the PM. Johnson will conduct his so called investigation in private & then come up with his findings. Wanna bet Hang Dong & the Liberals are let off the hook? It doesn't go far enough. This the democracy of our country that is at risk by foreign players from China, Iran & Russia. We all should be concerned about foreign interference. I just get the impression it's mostly, well My Guy Trudeau won so I'm still okay with it. Of course, there'd have been a different tune being sung here had Trudeau lost...

What is a special rapporteur? Don't agree. If there's nothing to hide then why not approve a federal enquiry? All parliamentarians except Trudeau are calling for it. Then do it.

How can any evidence be presented when Trudeau keeps blocking a federal inquiry?

Like it was reported, To stop the Conservatives from looking good. Is it true? If it is, it will be a huge scandal. If not, the reporter's career is over.

Kind of a mild meltdown. I've seen a lot worse.

And they used to be our hockey team. Yeah, moving to the Arizona desert has worked out so well.

Not if he told the Chinese official not to release the two Michaels. We'll see, I guess.

Pretty easily. He's been ignoring it for years now. Chevy needs to go but Chipman gave him a new deal last year. No accountability from above. Won't be surprised if Bowness gets the axe.

If I was a young man in my 20's, single & could do it all over again, I might make football scouting my life's calling.

Flex flex?? On twitter, you'd think it was some huge star who was let go. Thank you, James for the memories qccording to some Elks fans.

It was posted already.

The owner Murray Edwards lives full time in London, England. Refuses to pay Canadian income taxes. I'm pretty certain that he'll renounce his Canadian citizenship for British. He has no interest in the Stampeders or the stadium they play in.

My claim is invalid??? Lol. What games have YOU watched the past 20 or more years??? I guess the politicians are right. If you say it enough people will believe even if it's a lie. Attendance is UP. The CFL is flourishing. C'mon sing it again.... Attendance is UP. The CFL is flourishing. One more time... Attendance is UP. The CFL is flourishing. Lord have merrrrrcy... Attendance is UP. The CFL is flourisung. Not just Calgary. Not just Calgary. Talk to any NFL fans in Southern Ontario or BC. New ownership. I'm thinking 15,000 will be a good crowd at McMahon this season.

Yes, this problem goes back 5 decades. But back then, the Big 3 were averaging 45,000 fans per game. Montreal used to average 60,000 fans per game at the Big Owe.. I can also remember watching games from Montreal in that cavernous stadium where 2-5,000 fans were in attendance & the team folded. Today, tens of thousands of empty seats: Toronto, BC, Edmonton,. Calgary. Montreal loses 5 million dollars a year. Averaged 16,000 last year. They can't even fill a 25,000 seat stadium. Saskatchewan attendance down. No longer sells out. Living here in Calgary, I can assure you that no one cares about the Stampeders. I don't expect crowds any higher than 14,000 except for the LD game but it no longer sells out. Why should fans here care when the owner Murray Edwards doesn't? Sadly, they don't. So far this winter the Stamps have been invisible.
