Loved this so much... The last five minutes was kind of dumb. Mike Myers! What the hell!

Election 2015
I liked the burn on the NDP candidate who displayed ignorance on two levels - one she didn't know what Auschwitz was, and two, she doesn't know what a penis looks like. LOL

Election 2015
Of course it was a full page advertisement. But why let that get in the way of self-righteous anger and a good blather about media impartiality. I saw a Harper ad during Hockey Night in Canada, so that must mean that the CBC is supporting Harper.

Election 2015
What burns me is that my tax dollars go to the CBC, and there they are, kissing the ass of leftist scumbags like Suzuki. It was so awesome when Suzuki got burned on Australian national TV, by their state broadcaster, and made him look like the massive fraud he really is. It's too bad our state-funded channel is dedicated to propagating the myth that he is some sort of super-star. He isn't. But anyway, I wanted to address this topic that TUP brought up: I think we may have a lot of "shy Tories" in this election, that told pollsters what they wanted to hear, but will realize when they get to the booths that they want the devil they know. Just looking at how anybody who remotely expressed any support for the Conservatives was roasted on here, and on other forums I visit, I wouldn't doubt that a lot of people are just saying what people want to hear, to avoid having some anti-Harper loon blow up in their faces with their self-righteous anger about some idiotic topic like "Harper cut health care by $36 billion" etc. In my case, my Conservative MP is a dufus, and so it will be really hard to vote for him. I still, honestly haven't made up my mind, and won't until I hit the polling booth. I think there a lot of others just like me out there today.

Have you never watched the CBC?

This sounds like a case almost as open and shut since Lionel Hutz sued the author of "The Never-Ending Story".

Election 2015
while I agree with the message, I don't agree with the way it was presented. I would have made the message even simpler "If you vote NDP, you need to have your head examined."

Didn't the Red Star endorse Trudeau? EDIT - just saw the graph. Sorry.

And William Lyon Mackenzie King employed a full time psychic so he could talk to his dead mother and dead dog. Lots of weird stuff goes on in Ottawa. John Diefenbaker had jowls like a basset hound. We've had some strange looking PMs too. Sir John A was a raging alcoholic who could stand up in the HOC & give 12 hour speeches during filibusters with the aid of alcohol. It was the 1800's. Everyone was a raging alcoholic. What else was there to do? I have no idea. I heard that MacDonald would start speaking sober then have a bottle of whiskey beside him & start sipping... He gave some of his best speeches drunk as a skunk. Imagine no professional sports teams to cheer for, which means no Bombers, no Jets, no Blue Jays. Your job of menial back-breaking labour is so unsafe you will probably die doing it. No TV. No radio. No Kardashians telling us all how to live. No video games. No microwave burritos. No sci-fi. Books have to be read on paper. You are lucky if you live past 50, and if you do, you probably spend the last five years in agonizing pain praying to die. People rarely bathed so the smell of BO would have been over-whelming, all the time. Yeah, thanks to electricity and petroleum products providing mankind with cheap energy, we have it a lot better than they had it in John A's day. I don't wonder for a second why they were blasted all day every day.

Election 2015
Trudeau's new ads where he's screaming into the microphone are starting to get on my nerves. Especially when he calls me "friend". Sorry Justin, you are a spoiled rich kid from Montreal. We are never going to be friends.

Blue Jays
on a somewhat related topic, man did the Argos ever get screwed over due to the Jays post-season, and the Pan-Am games earlier in the year. They ended up with hardly any real home games this year. As Bomber fans we would be pretty cheesed if this had happened to us. Thank goodness the Argos are getting out of the hellish Skydome.

Edmonton Oilers LOL (perhaps Calgary Flames LOL)
I remember seeing Gretzky play in Winnipeg when he was 18. He played pretty terrible in the game I watched. The crowd was really razzing him, which of course, a Winnipeg crowd would do. Anyway, he was 18. McDavid is only 18. The sky is the limit, and he's only going to get better. I agree though the scrutiny is off the charts. In Wayne's day there weren't two major sports networks needing something to talk about for 24 hours a day like there is now.

Bombers vs RedBlacks (and Jovon's chirp)
I still have a hard time accepting that the Red Blacks are so much better than last year, and have come so far in one season, and just completely blown past us. Especially with Marcel as their GM. Am I just on crazy pills here or are the Redblacks actually that good?

Tajh Boyd Released
Stranger things have happened. If so, good for him. This just shows again why American players, especially QB's, should give the CFL a try. They are far more marketable playing up here and getting experience than sitting at home eating Doritos. I couldn't believe that Delvin Breaux was playing for New Orleans last night. I honestly didn't think he was that great with Hamilton. So shows what I know.
-
Blue Jays
Not all of them. Of course not. But there is a sense that the Jays are not really welcome in what the Americans consider their sport. I don't think it's just me who feels this way either. When the Ump allowed that third Ranger run on that screwed up play by Martin, the entire crowd was chanting "Fix! Fix! Fix!"

Another Warren Moon wannabe. Maybe Sask picks him up?

Election 2015
I hope you are right. Mulcair and the NDP were not the party to bring positivity and cohesiveness to Canada. All they know how to do is whine and complain and be negative. Trudeau is the only real option, and I hope a lot of NDP'ers this weekend think about that before they vote, and move their vote over to the Liberal candidate in their riding.

Wow those jerseys were ugly. What I couldn't get was why all the fans were wearing them too. What a bunch of lemmings!- Election 2015
yeah to that comment rr. Justin's dad was an evil genius and his mom was a hippy who smoked more weed than Cheech and Chong combined. If Justin is somewhere in the middle that's fine by me. - Edmonton Oilers LOL (perhaps Calgary Flames LOL)
