that definitely is a debate all right. On the surface of it, it would be hard to believe that it was going on, as the human mind probably can't even imagine such barbaric practice, by a supposed cultured and educated society.

How about a compromise? The statue is left in place, but there is a full and honest disclosure of the good and the bad (treatment of Indigenous). I am just trying to be a pragmatist. I don't like efforts being made to erase historical figures completely, as we can't change history, only learn from it. Probably because Laurier was a Liberal. I don't know much about Laurier's immigration policies. We had to watch a movie the CBC made of him in history class, and I can honestly say that I slept through most of it. Mackenzie King was also a huge anti-Semite. He could have saved thousands of lives of Jewish people but instead let them be led off to the gas chambers (not that he knew this was happening of course). Mackenzie King's statue in Ottawa, on Parliament Hill. Should we prepare the bull-dozer?

ha ha that show is hilarious! I laughed so hard when he was able to get that Bachelorette to do a fake commercial asking people to donate money to buy African child soldiers better weapons. Unbelievable how dumb she is.

was the 1969 White Paper regarding getting rid of the "Indian Act"? I have heard good and bad things about that initiative.

This sums it up. That response Trump made to Megyn Kelly at the debates won him the election. Finally someone stood up to the attacks, and beat them down. I am no fan of Trump, but I have tried and tried to explain why he won to people still in disbelief, and they just refuse to understand. Stop the constant attacks. Not everyone is a "racist" or a "bigot" because they don't support every single PC dictate coming from on high. Mark mentioned the statue of John A. I have seen this discussed on other sites, and the conversation just goes like this: Average joe: "I don't support statues of Canadian historical figures being pulled down". SJW: "You are a racist bigot who loves Trump". Average Joe: "Sigh". Inwardly thinking "I will do my speaking at the ballot box I guess".

I'm all for taking down statues of Pierre Trudeau, but that's only because I don't believe he deserves a statue in the first place. I'm not a big fan of pulling down statues, it's just too 1984 and Orwellian for me. I don't mind some kind of plaque detailing the good and the bad, but like it or not, these are historical figures in our history that are responsible for the country we live in today, warts and all.

I think Noeller stole his log in credentials.

I doubt that Justin Trudeau knows a football from a meatball. But that never stops him from having a photo-op:

shhhhhh…..no spoilers...but if you are ever ordering a Cinnabon in Omaha....

If you are ever in Albuquerque give my regards to this guy:

Andrew Harris

Just trying to figure out who is the bigger dumpster fire right now, Saskatchewan or Montreal.

I don't bash the Riders as much when they are down, but of course I remember the 1980's when bashing the Riders was like picking on a person in a coma. I am enjoying the circus going on there right now though.

I actually didn't mind Bill Clinton so much.

As stupid as those tweets are, they had me howling with laughter. Imagine Obama or even George Bush Jr. tweeting out that they fired someone because they were a "loser". This is extremely entertaining if nothing else. And yes, what a sad indictment of himself indeed.

Bryan Bennett. And Rod Black gave the credit to Taylor Loffler on that tackle.

There was a big special teams tackle during the game by Bennett I believe, though Rod Black gave the credit to Loffler. I couldn't tell if it was #16 or #18 on the jersey. I think it was Bennett though and Rod was just wrong as usual.

that or WWE wrestling.

Toronto back in the Pinball coaching days had a saying "Fit in or F off". I remember Pinball saying that was the Argo philosophy. O'Shea would know all about it, having played there at the time.

Replace "ticket to" with "bag of weed at" in that sentence and you may get him to show up.

Jim Jones was more sane.

Said Bob Irving in 1987 when asked about the Bombers putting Chris Carter on their neg list.

This is puzzling...

Cheer for Lions because....well someone has to. No one here in BC is doing it.
