No doubt....and the tech was so bad we were on party lines for gosh sakes. MTS could not compete with the private sector. Simple as that. It was a mercy kill.

Agreed.

Common knowledge. No offense, but find it yourself. Everyone knows that the whole province needed to be redone with fibre optic and only a very small portion of it had been done. I am, of course, referring to the original privitization of MTS. Billions were needed to do so with very little realistic hope of cost recovery. CBC links? Good god....might as well ask the NDP to write it themselves.

CBC is a farce. Has been for a loooong time.

Apples and oranges. MTS required a multi-billion dollar technology upgrade just to continue operating. We have already spent the billions on Hydro.

Not federal....but I'm still waiting for sale of Manitoba Hydro.

What a bunch of BS. When you invent narrative it doesn't convince other people...it just makes your post sound dumb. Fear mongering doesn't work anymore. It's time for the far left to let it go.

Problem with that idea is that they would lose every election.

We can sit here and debate ideologies all day long, capitalism vs communism. But answer me this question commies, why has every communist country had the majority of it's people living in abject poverty? That's not opinion...that's fact. For a system that says it will spread the wealth why is it so hopelessly ineffective at doing so?

Plus with Trudeau as the leader, they don't have too.

As long as their are sectors of intelligent and charismatic people that are greedy in a population, communism is doomed to fail.

The problem is that is the only way it could be implemented on such a large scale.

Problem is that communism only works under a dictatorship....and even then not very well.

Socialism is a great idea in theory, communism is just a mechanism to enforce socialism and is not a very good idea at all.

Totally agree. A grown man running around in costumes is not a sign of racism, it's very Michael Jackson Neverlandish.

That's a bunch of baloney. Other teams perfectly understand why a player might have less stats in Winnipeg's offence. Their earning power is unaffected by playing in our system, and demonstrating good team attitude and an ability to win can earn them even more. I get that you have a hard on of hate for Paul Lapolice, but he's not costing us FA signings or re-signings. You are out to lunch with this theory.

Football players love to win above all else.

In fairness to Woli, he is in a position that does not see a ton of balls thrown to it.

We bash Saskatchewan here and it's good natured. Leave your common sense at the door and join the fun. It's very liberating.

I'd love to see Derek Dennis come rambling out of a Domo kiosk in a red coverall to jump to the pump. People would be peeling out in fear at that sight. "Darn...I lost another one."

It really isn't a big enough of a difference to start changing the chemistry of the secondary.

I gotta be honest, with Strev at QB I like Bailey and Petermann over Whitehead and Demski too. Bailey and Petermann are more traditional receiver types that give Streveler nice, easy pass options. I really like what Whitehead and Demski bring to the table in play making ability, and with an experienced QB they get my vote, but they do not have the same ability to get consistently open and provide their QB with safe medium range targets in the holes of the zone. Personally, I was hoping the Bombers were going to give Petermann more playing time this year. Bailey seems to have a natural receivers ability in his routes and nice soft hands.

Andrew Harris rarely comes out flat. I'm not worried about that scenario at all.

I hope they chirp him big time....but I doubt they will. Let sleeping dogs lie and all that.

My point is that I don't think he will look better than Speller/Desjarlais until he knocks the rust off and gets into game shape.
