  1. Banning doesn't stop trolls - they just make a new account and keep right on trolling - with a slightly different style.
  2. How much longer can this be acceptable? As soon as they don’t get pressure, the D is toast.
  3. It’s usually 24 - 36 hours after the game.
  4. I could see it getting to a point where everyone refuses to get behind centre. A brutal OL and the game plan is not helping them out at all.
  5. Don’t think too hard about it - it’s mostly stupidity.
  6. It’s hard to believe that he and other world leaders didn’t have at least an inkling.
  7. I am not in favour of taking down any statues at all. Macdonald's treatment of First Nations is well documented and has been widely discussed. I'm beyond annoyed when people still try to claim there are those who don't know, and removing the statue will be a small step towards education and reconciliation. However, somehow, Wilfred Laurier is rarely if ever brought up. Is it because he's Liberal? I don't know. But I do know that his immigration policies were very racist and discussed openly in parliament. Also, he did nothing to change anything that JAM put into place. Example: JAM legislated a $50 Chinese Head Tax; Laurier raised it to $100, then $500. Then there's Mackenzie King. He banned Chinese immigration altogether, on July 1, 1923. During the Dirty Thirties, he said he wouldn't give a red cent to anyone who didn't vote Liberal. Then there is the treatment of Japanese Canadians during WWII.
  8. I assume you search within the YouTube site?
  9. I'm sure you've all heard that John A. Macdonald's statue was removed in Victoria - due to his treatment of our Aboriginal people. However, I will only take that gesture seriously if someone follows suit with a Laurier statue. I'm not holding my breath...
  10. It is the end when you’re a Conservative in Canada. Let’s face it, it’s far easier for Liberals to get elected in this country.
  11. All teams are equal, but some are more equal than others.
  12. I’m beginning to understand why he didn’t win the leadership race - sounds like one of the MPs Harper had to muzzle.
  13. You’re trying too hard - he’s 44. He would more than likely get injured very quickly.
  14. You have to admit - it was a little too easy for Masoli. We’ll see what happens on Friyay...
  15. We ate at one out in Lloydminster - fantastic appetizers.
  16. There must be a washed up QB sitting on his couch down south...
  17. When Lulay starts, they are at least semi-competent.
  18. Football schemes die funny.
  19. Watch the highlights.
  20. The attempts by TSN to pump Manziel’s tires were simply pathetic. Watch the game recap (on cfl.ca), they actually sound desperate.
  21. To the surprise of no one - those two teams were the Grey Cup champions.
  22. Cripes, read that a few weeks ago...
  23. I would like to read this guy’s analysis of the loss to Hamilton...
  24. Duke Williams
