Well I trust them for the most part, the problem I have is that because it exists the refs stop trusting themselves and use the eye in the sky as a crutch. Would rather do away with all the reviews and just let human error be what it will be.

She already told everyone, taxing the super wealthy. They can afford it and still be stupidly rich. In fact that's how it was in America when it was as great as people want to make it again.
-
if that's the road they're going down then time to do away with onfield refs and let the big man in the clouds handle everything.
-
it's pretty self explanatory. Most conservatives these days are regressive in their thinking trying to reclaim past glories rather than accepting what the future will bring and adapting their positions to fit into that future. but hey I was mostly just making a joke at the expense of the area I grew up in, no need to get too bogged down in the details of the phrasing.
-
Sounds like a lot of the stuff coming out can be solved with training the refs better. Shocking I know.
-
Hey I will have you know that Selkirk-Interlake is a very progressive and forward thinking area that is in no way shape or form filled with rednecks...... oh no wait, the opposite.

They have been talking about bill and Ted 3 for a while, glad it's gonna happen

I was not against any pipeline just on principle, but energy east wouldn't have helped much and northern gateway was doomed from the get go. You think transmountain has protests northern gateway made that look like a walk in the park. The bottom line is these pipelines needed built 10 or 15 years ago and neither provincial or federal conservative governments got it done. Everyone owns this.

I have an idea! STOP MAKING ******* STUPID CALL!

Dude I am one of those hurting oil patch workers. Geoscientists were hit harder than anyone else in Calgary, but if you think Jason Kenney is going to magically make jobs reappear you are beyond hope of being reasonable. Notley never promised a pipeline in exchange for a carbon tax, it was framed as showing good faith negotiating with Canada and it did a lot to get the general public in Canada on her side, problem was BC was never going to go for it without a massive pay out, and do you think Jason Kenney was going to give Alberta dollars to BC? I don't. I say she is pragmatic because she put a lot of those socialist ideals behind her to work towards was is best for Alberta. That's the kind of politician I want. Someone who is about the common good as opposed to their ideology. Again I don't trust the NDP party for ****, but I trust her a hell of a lot. Also, drop this alliance with Trudeau thing, that's a UCP talking point that is BS. She's been working for Albertans with whoever is willing to work with her including the federal government. Certainly a better option than launching into a red faced tirade like Kenney seems to think would be the answer. Hell was just reading about the UCP candidate in my riding and she sounds like a truly awful person. Her biggest point of emphasis was how she wanted to roll back the legislation providing more support for people in domestic violence situations. We are at a point where regressive governments are a bad idea. We need to continue to elect progressives. Haven't had a regressive government since Ralph Klein and we still need to keep going down that path. Massive oil royalties aren't coming back soon and the government needs to actually act like a government now.

I barely know him but just take a look, a stone cold LOSER More projection from ol' Donald.

No, but someone who is willing to hand wave away the **** Kenney did to win the leadership of a party that really only exists because he wanted it to exist.... This is what you want for a premier? Because of a carbon tax from the NDP? We were getting either that or a provincial sales tax last time regardless so 6 of one half a dozen of the other. Kenney gonna cut taxes on the rich and starve the beast, that sounds lovely for regular Albertans like you and I. But hey, we can just all bootstrap ourselves up right? Kenney is garbage in a human suit, I am no NDP supporter but at least Rachel Notley has been a pragmatic leader, arguably the only one of her kind in Canada right now. We need more like her, not Jason Kenneys who are more concerned with making the rich richer and making sure that gay kids know that it's not OK to be gay.
-
you are the worst kind of Alberta voter.
-
Sham? Jason Kenney would be right at home in the wild rose. He is the worst kind of crony capitalist plus he is a bigot on top of it. He is under criminal investigation for his leadership campaign... and you want this guy as premier? What's he going to do to help the economy? Rape the middle class to pay for his rich benefactors benefit that's what. You are entitled to vote for him if you want to, but how anyone can see the kind of person he is and willingly vote for his party I will never figure out.
-
Hopefully that slimy ******* Kenney gets what he deserves. I don't like the NDP but I do like Rachel Notley... I was hoping the Alberta Party would give me an option but they don't seem to know their asses from a hole in the ground so who to vote for.... probably the incumbent who was one of the PCs who didn't join Kenneys band of angry right wing nutballs.
-
He was so unhinged he ranted about a Saturday Night Live repeat... Guy is even more bonkers than usual
-
I really don't like calling them single use bags, most people use them for other things after the groceries are home. To me it seems like the wrong kind of activism.
-
So how do you emerge in your 2nd year when you're behind Bighill and Santos-Knox? Coaches said before they got bighill he was an option in the middle and when JSK was hurt Wilson looked OK. I think you're selling him short based on circumstances.
-
Other than doubles probably not in the open era. Andreescu is having one hell of a year, really making some noise beating some good players. The Canadian men are doing OK too but nothing like this. Indian Wells is a big tournament too, outside of the grandslams it's probably the biggest 1000 level tournament along with a couple others so winning this is a big deal. Good for her and always love seeing the Canadian athletes do well in non traditionally canadian sports.
-
Much rather have Canadians (even tenuously connected ones) than global players. **** sakes, why don't we focus on getting the 3 biggest cities in the country actually supporting our league before we worry about mexico and europe?
-
LOL.
-
pretty easy to step in when you got a line like that in front of you and a guy like Bighill beside you.
-
Marvel studios and kevin feige didnt want to fire him, I always knew he would be back cause that whole franchise is Gunns baby. No way they do a third without him and no way Disney gives up that kind of money. The Mouse loves money more than anything.
-
why is that hard to believe? Guy made a bunch of nobody characters into a profitable and popular franchise. You know what Disney loves more than pretending to care about their image? Money.

The Liberals won last time on the strength of the dislike for Harper, they can't rely on that anymore and Trudeau has been exposed for what he is and can't rely on that anymore. They gotta do something or we're going to have prime minister weenie in Scheer. Covering up **** never helps, it only makes it worse. Shoulda apologized, canned Trudeau and moved on, but nope, not our Liberal party. Still entitled to their entitlements.
