    this is a HORIBLE take..... "boys will be boys"..... no. Society needs to change so that women can feel comfortable working in any situation.....

    They can but choose not too, probably the classiest thing Bell Media can do. If you really want to know her name, you could look it up I’m sure. 
     
    Please tell me you are not blindly supporting the team based on fanship? Please be on the side of truth and support the victim, not the assholes with a checkered past.

    don't be an apologist. It's OK to admit your team employs known dirt bags.

    I'll take the innocent until proven guilty mindset... in fairness to everyone involved... but if the accused was someone on the bottom of the roster, making near minimum... that player would be released already

    If the club had this documentation we wouldn't be having the conversation, no lawyer would pursue this in court after being presented and verifying the veracity of the documents.
    My guess there were other conditions to the settlement that were not financial they they would not agree too.

    This. And - the complainant only needs to prove their case on the balance of probabilities.

    It's Canada, those big us style awards don't happen. 
    Argos and Murphy come across looking like real trash in this situation.  Kelly is the least of the problem here. He was a ****** made a pass at a coworker and she felt uncomfortable.  So she complains and gets fired. How's that for a sit down Argo fans? This is the pg version of the reason hockey Canada is in a heap of ****.

    Considering the money she's asking for is not in anyway life changing. I have a hard time buying that she's only doing this for a quick payday.
    She should have went to someone high up in the club to get this settled.....someone like....Murphy perhaps.

    Well, this seemingly happened and they were told not to open that can of worms.
    If the the lawsuit has been filed, they already tried to handle it quietly and the club refused.

    She's a victim but other than being a creep the person who looks like the real ******* in thr situation is Murphy based on the accusations.  Lady goes to the boss about an uncomfortable situation  and gets blamed for it and fired.

    Exhibit A) Discrediting the victim.

    When victims are made public, especially when attacking professional athletes, they are shamed, assaulted, vilified. This just happened to the woman who accused Jackson Mahomes of assault. She went through so much abuse that she stopped cooperating with police and the charges were dropped. Naming the accuser does nothing but encourage people to keep their mouths shut and let "boys be boys".
    Suggesting anything else is BS, imo.

    I would like to see what they do with Portage Place and the Bay before we kill off downtown, Workers re populating the downtown may never happen to prior numbers but there's no reason that it can't be a safe destination with different attraction and dining options just needs the right direction from people running this city and private business.

    1. The primary function of any museum is to preserve heritage and educate the public. Expecting a high degree of economic impact through tourism, is a recent shift and actually a fairly new idea.  
    2. You pointed out government subsidy as if it were a negative. It's the norm for any museum - they all get subsidies.  That's why I could rent two rooms at the MB. museum this past Friday, and also have my students complete a scavenger hunt of the galleries, all for $13 per student, plus 5 free chaperones. We were at the museum from 9:30 - 3:00; per hour, per student, that's ridiculously low, and I greatly appreciate it.

    Have you ever been down Hastings/East Hastings in Vancouver/Burnaby? Makes our downtown look like the Garden of Eden and it's cleaned up from what it was 10 years ago. I do business with 3 locations along that strip and it is not uncommon for the metal roller shutters to stay closed all day while people work inside and the rear parking areas are 10ft fences with barbed wire on top.
    Winnipeg is in no way the worst downtown in the country and is not what keeps people from coming here. Weather, ignorance and the perception of what it is like here are what keep people away.

    I read those too - you're referring to them without the proper context
    1. All Canadian museums operate as non-profit organizations
    2. Most Canadian museums are primarily funded by both governments and foundations

    I've booked quite a few field trips groups at CMHR. They do have dates where they are fully booked. 
    As does the MB. Museum - I was there on Friday with 40 grade 11s - the place was busy.
