  1. None of that is relevant, until they assemble a championship team, in today's NHL.
  2. Until Edmonton wins a cup, the jury is out on that, IMO
  3. The fact he's not...indicates there is more to the story. He should have been arrested 2 years ago.
  4. Too much does not add up: Why wait two years to report this? This amounts to treason - why was the MP not arrested and charged?
  5. Of course they are not comparable. But the bottom line is - without Layton - Harper never wins a majority That will not happen in the current situation - that's all I was saying I do remember all of that. I also remember that as finance minister, he slashed billions in transfer payments, which I assume was sanctioned by the Prime Minister When he ran for Prime Minister, it was hard to determine if he was really that inept, or if his party just wasn't behind him
  6. Yes, he used wedge issues. Also yes - there was a clear and well known connection between him and Jack Layton He couldn't have unseated Paul Martin's Liberals without NDP support
  7. I haven't been able to make sense of any of those election interference allegations Trudeau deflections and Pollievere snide marks - are mostly adding more mud to the water
  8. Harper was actually competent at working with the other opposition parties. PP just has no idea how to go about it.
  9. The 2011 election was unique and very unlikely to be repeated A very weak Liberal party and strength of Jack Layton leading the NDP No disrespect to Singh or Mulcair, but they are not of Layton's calibre and never will be We had the NDP not only form the official opposition, but also split the vote in ridings that usually go to the Liberals 4 years later, it was obvious that people were ready to have the Liberals in power again The current NDP are not going to do for Pollievere what they did for Harper Even if they wanted to, I doubt PP is savvy enough to work with them
  10. You have wonder what kind of staff he has working for him. It was completely predictable that this would happen.
  11. Poor guy has been lacking topics since 2019.
  12. I knew it. TBURGESS is the pen name of Gordon Korman
  13. Sequel: The Curse of the 13th Man
  14. The Grinch who Stole the MBB Book Titles thread
  15. It's impossible to change the unchangeable.
  16. You forgot 6 ounces of rye - neat.
  17. Unhydrated by A.C. Leonhard
  18. Still recall Mulroney's response to Harper's GST cut. "Good politics but bad policy."
  19. That's fair. I'm referring to the issues the Als OL had, circa '07-'08
  20. I agree with that assessment. Our DL of that era feasted on those guys regularly I still remember Tom Canada sacking Calvillo on a 2 point convert attempt - to end the game
  21. The Death of Defensive Ends by Stanley 'not so humble' Bryant Beauty is in the Eye of the Receiver by Dalton Schoen Cougars' Hopes Dashed by Nathan Rourke
  22. Ok, that makes sense, thanks. Because, under Doer, that was one of the best provincial governments we have had Also, I am now taking some of the stuff my former MLA posts with a grain of salt, perhaps the whole shaker
  23. I can't help finding that odd, considering that Selinger was Doer's finance minister. They also had people like Bjornson and Ashton, who had been there long term. I guess if you're dysfunctional as a group, experience doesn't mean as much
  24. Him being dismayed does not amount to him having an influence. The carbon tax was going to be implemented, no matter what any premier did.
