Good luck and best wishes Max.

I was 15 at the time but have no recollection of this blizzard. My entire memory of Manitoba winters has just blended into one large blizzard, all at -40C with -55C wind chill. But we still went snowmobilin'.

Coincidentally, in nine months your son turns 29...

Hee hee - is that the one where James Bond has dyslexia?

I don't get the logic of saying you are blocking a pipeline due to climate change. That oil is still going to come out of the ground, and it will still be transported. If consumption of that oil is causing any kind of climate change, it's not going to stop just because it doesn't travel by pipeline. Instead, it will be transported by the much more dangerous method of rail, or even tanker truck. That's not helping the environment at all. A conspiracy theory buddy of mine explained why Warren Buffett backed the Democrats. He's got huge investments in Canadian rail way companies. Blocking pipelines and forcing oil to be transported by rail is just good business for him, and he can hide behind Obama who says that he wants to block pipelines to help the environment. Everyone wins (except the occasional small town that gets incinerated by a derailment), and the trained seals clap along.

The Conservatives seem to be obsessed with hair, so Rona was the obvious choice. What is a MJ lie? That she picks her nose a lot? Doesn't brush her teeth? I don't know.

If you aren't in favor of this, then you just aren't a fan of Canadian politics.

So you think that the Americans and Israelis deliberately bombed MSF? Why? Unless you subscribe to some kind of idealism that both nations are just that evil to do it on purpose, I don't know why they would do it. It makes no sense.

She's spewing lies about Melanie Joly? Maybe she's just jealous.

http://www.quillandquire.com/book-news/2015/11/04/melanie-joly-named-heritage-minister-in-trudeau-cabinet/ I really need to visit Quebec more often.

we'd have 9 wins this year I think. Those close games we lost wouldn't have been so close, especially with the defense playing so well.

Actually, I've been surprised at how many women I've talked to that are not happy about Trudeau's policy either. They don't want hand-outs, they want to be recognized as being just as good as men. Quotas in a lot of ways are slaps in the face to people as it tells them "you are only getting this job because of what you are, not who you are". But what's done is done. What happens in the next election and there are more women than men elected? Will a lot of extremely talented women be excluded from cabinet because of this policy? It really can be a double-edged sword.

Could you hear the disapointment in Mike Johnson's voice as he repeatedly indicated how close Burmi was to only having one skate on the ice coming out of the box as he took the puck. The puck at times really seemed to be jumping off the Jets stick this game, a bit frustrating but what I really enjoyed watching was the Jets taking it to the leafs the last seven minutes or so of the game and Leafs just trying to hang on for overtime. A big part of that is influenced by our coaching. I like it. We're playing to win, not to lose. Yeah that was hilarious how many times they analyzed Burmi's feet to make sure that he had both feet on the ice, and the disappointment was palpable as they just couldn't prove that he didn't have both feet out of the box before he got the puck. Just such homerism. Tonight do we get Beyak doing the play by play? I expect another tough game as Ottawa plays a lot like Montreal.

That Bush, what a war-monger. What's that now? Bush hasn't been president since 2008? Well who's in charge now? Obama?! But but we can't say anything bad about him, that's just not acceptable. This must be someone else's fault. Like Bush for instance. Aw...that feels better. Yes, somehow when Doctors without Borders is speaking, they always find a way to fit in a shot at the Israelis. The US and Israel, the only two nations on earth that ever mistakenly bomb people. No one else ever does. So weird.

That looks awesome!

I am so jealous right now!! Any way to ship some of those to the West Kelowna Walmart? 3x please!

listening to the play by play team on Sportsnet, I thought for most of the game the Jets were down by 5 goals. I got to hear how bad Trouba is, how bad Myers is, what a scumbag Byfuglien is, and yet the score was 2-1 Jets most of the time. Can't wait until Beyak is back...tired of this partisan play-calling.

What difference does it make who said what about whom? Did you actually read what he said? Doesn't any of it resonate? For $570 million mankind could save 300,000 lives a year from horrible malaria deaths. But instead it is going into solar panels. Doesn't that say anything, like maybe our priorities are skewed? Oh forget it. I realize I am wasting my time.

Dude!!! Waiting for season to be over to do Homeland marathon - no spoilers please!

Whose Tee hee

He's from Vernon, cut him some slack...

I am 114th in Canada right now in the quest for a Joseph Abboud suit. I thought I could start Davis this week and win the suit as I assume he's going to throw for 8 TD's and 712 yards (one short of Dunigan's record). But....sadly, TSN doesn't have him as a QB option. What a surprise.

Our MP for Kelowna was in the running apparently to get a cabinet post, but for some reason, he was over-looked. Not sure why, he's sure qualified. I really don't understand why Inspector Clouseau is in charge of Foreign Affairs. That one has me scratching my head. As if we don't already look weak-kneed enough with Shiny Pony as PM.

Is there a way to target it specifically toward Millenials? Hee hee...and they wouldn't even see it coming either as they'd all be glued to their I-phones...
