  1. Yeah there are very few people wearing masks anymore. About the only place I'll put one on is the university of calgary because they still require it until the end of the term. Everywhere else there is no point. No one else wears one it doesn't make a difference. Government has stopped caring so just accepting the reality that eventually we will all catch it.
  2. Except the PCs were very much a centrist, big tent party... Allison Redford would have made a fine Liberal. The UCP however is not the PCs. They are a far right wild rose replacement that borrowed the name conservative for electability reasons. Let's not forget the Harper conservatives were a lot friendlier with the wild rose party than they were the PCs.
  3. Jason kenney, an extreme right winger by any stretch think he is the moderate one. These people have completely lost the picture of the world. They're so left behind by the rest of society they don't even understand how far out there they are.
  4. Have you seen the "winners " in that group? Kenney is by far the most capable of them and Bumbles has ****** up every thing they've touched. Would he though? He is a pretty far right figure himself...
  5. Not likely. Alberta had plenty of chances to elect the wild rose far right types and every single time they opted not to . The ucp preyed on the fact that people believed they would be the old pcs and not as far right as the wild rose.
  6. Meanwhile Rider fans are going to be super disappointed when they tune into the combine and don't see any wheat harvesting going on.
  7. Not sure it was all that vaunted. It's old as **** equipment. The problem Russia always posed as a military was the piles and piles of nuclear weapons they still possess.
  8. Things that didn't need a study to know that... But seriously what kind of article is that? Is this a thing now where you have to go through the whole damned articles to find a point? What happened to putting the crucial stuff first?
  9. But that has been going on for far longer than Trump.
  10. People truly believe that "I'm allowed to have my opinion" means they get to pretend facts don't matter. Used to be that dumbest ideas were shunned by communities so it was kept quiet. Now the internet has allowed them to find like minded fools and pretend they are actually informed.
  11. Water is wet. Americans been pissed off for ages that less talented Canadians make more and have more job security since forever. I would suspect that is in large part due to a focus by the respective gms on making sure they have the Canadians who are good enough.
  12. If the new jersey has a scarf we will know for sure it was him.
  13. Well I wouldn't say nothing... they've crippled his economy and armed Ukraine quite well. Problem is that he is a madman so you get the world's militaries stepping in directly he is libel to take the "if I lose everyone loses" option.
  14. I can see why hufnagel would be in favour. His qb has a busted shoulder can't make the throws anymore. Same with Craig Dickenson. Got a noodle arm qb. Can't make those throws at the best of times. Seriously though I can see the logic in it. Puts more of the field in play at all times. Might make the short side more dangerous though.
  15. My guess is that it's the owners in Toronto and Montreal pushing for it.
  16. So if they make holding 5 yards will they actually call it?
  17. Want to improve offenses? Drop 2 of the DI spots. Teams use them almost exclusively for defensive players now to keep their guys fresh and throw different situational looks at an offense. That's the biggest change.
  18. And less popular than Jason Kenney! That's quite the accomplishment because everyone hates Jason Kenney.
  19. Stop pretending there is a quick fix to grab fans. Changing rules won't win fans. Boots on the ground grass roots long term thinking is the only way to foster new long term fans.
  20. Fun fact! you can reclaim oil sands mining back to the way it was before quite easily and the tailings aren't nearly as toxic and can be much more easily dealt with. (the assumption of course being that governments hold companies accountable for actually doing the reclamation) I know everyone wants to bang hard on the "oil and gas is the worst thing ever!" drum, but it's really not as bad as people make it seem. Heavy metal extraction is a much bigger issue environmentally but everything now is greenhouse gasses this or climate change that.
  21. So first fact doesn't contradict the post you are quoting, both talk about it depending on the source of electricity. Second fact I don't think anyone ever thinks of the greenhouse emissions for production.... this is what I was saying before about how environmental issues = greenhouse gasses. Heavy metal mining is ******* brutal on the environment. The tailings ponds are toxic for pretty much ever and you can't reclaim the land nearly as easily.
  22. Dumbass Jr. flat out said they don't care if american banks lend them money, they get all the money they need from russia. It's been in plain sight from the get go.
