  1. We will use dentists for an example. It's predominately a male dominated field. Dental hygienists are predominately female. You would propose that in order to equal out the numbers that the dentists should be making an equal salary to the hygienists? Lets do some basic math. Average dentist makes about 180 000 Average hygienist is about 50 000 In order to balance the numbers based on your link the dentist would need to take a pay cut and the hygienist would take a massive raise where both make 115 000 to equal everything out? Alternatively the only other way to make gender pay equal on that link you posted would be to force Canada to employ at each job an exact split of 50/50 with both genders. I don't see why people can't understand why the numbers favor the male side because most men pursue careers that pay better while most women pursue lower paying jobs and also factor in that most will go on maternity leave if they have children and/or will stay at home.
  2. That's an average of everyones salaries put together. That doesn't equate a pay gap between genders. The only way that would ever equal out with everyone making the same amount of money with no difference between jobs or genders would be if we were communist. What you want to post is the average salary between genders doing the exact same job with the exact same qualifications at the exact same company with the exact same amount of experience. Jeeze if people were so easily duped by looking at that link then no wonder why so many people are sheep and will believe anything told to them.
  3. Maurice also needs to start kicking some asses...
  4. The refs don't need to be the ones to be blamed. I'm siding with Goalie on the top 2 lines just absolutely putting half ass efforts. It's sad when over the last 5 games the best players have been the bottom 2 lines.
  5. Looks like we are anxious to start a losing streak.. the team really needs a kick in the ass.
  6. Helle and Niku are having a great night.... the rest of the team seems to be staring and really lagging behind. This team does not look sharp at all.
  7. This real life story-line seems much more interesting then anything the writers could write for TV...
  8. Those numbers when not in the Red Zone is crazy!!!
  9. I saw a graph / photo on Riderfans (yuck) where they showed all of Jennings passes for the season and how many balls were off the mark and how they could of been picked off. The guy has huge issues with accuracy and the numbers do not look good at all considering he had great receivers to throw at.
  10. I would personally love it if a Landmark opened up instead... the city definitely needs more of those!
  11. The long shot rumour I heard was movie theatre moving to Sears and the food court would be renovated/extended with more options...
  12. It would be really awkward if they saw the video of her doing a gang bang with a bunch of porn stars dressed as wrestlers including HHH. Not that I've ever viewed this film myself , I just heard about this from a friend ya know
  13. Week 3 and they were already in jeopardy... yikes
  14. Better make sure safe search is set to on lol. It may mess them up seeing her starring role in some of her movies.
  15. Stone would look good with the Jets.... not sure what salary we would need to dump to get him? Does Perreault have NMC?
  16. I'm kind of glad that Punisher was cancelled, I tried making it through the first season but it was painfully slow. I'm hoping it can be re-done something more similar to the Thomas Jane movie and the short he did years later.
  17. I don't think anyone on the team doesn't want to be here, I think this is much more guys dogging it and not putting in a complete effort. Also a bit short on talent on defense where guys like Myers, Kulikov, Morrow seemed to have dropped off quite a bit since last year.
  18. Bull **** call on Trouba ...
  19. Terrible giveaway by Myers... He's having a bad game same with Wheeler, Roslovic and Laine. Morrissey deserves all the money he will be getting... that guy seems to never drop off in play.
  20. Roslovic seems to really be over thinking on the ice, I've been more impressed with Appleton then him in the last little while.
  21. Jefferson signed first because on Riderfans they were flipping out and then calmed down when Micah signed. I listened to Jefferson on 1290 yesterday afternoon, aside from his annoyinig habit of going uhhhhh every few seconds the guy seemed to choose Winnipeg because of the culture and the management. He apparently was his own agent and made it seem like he was happy with how the club negotiated with him.
  22. Sign him for a day and retire him as a Bomber?
