    Right now its less depth than we've had but I suspect we draft an OL and/or bring in a cheap vet.

    My last one was a Westerman jersey. I want to get a Demski jersey but just haven't pulled the trigger.

    You know what would be great, a vintage Kenny Ploen or Leo Lewis jersey.

    You’re a clown. Every team has had an incident with a player, a DUI is one thing, sexually harassing team staff is another. 
     
    To say he belongs with the Riders is an absolutely idiotic statement. Not shocking coming from you though.

    You don't fart around with people's money. He would have to study to get licensed & then take part in some in depth training & guidance from his superiors at work. He would have to put in the work.

    Globe and Mail rated Winnipeg as the 3rd most livable city in Canada.  It has its problems, especially downtown, but so do many cities.

    I live in Thompson Manitoba now, violent crime capital of North America. Moved from Winnipeg full time a couple years ago. Wouldn't live anywhere else. Love it here. Social issues ...oh yea..makes the North End look like a Christian retreat.
    Like any other city tho it's contained to certain areas, even in a small city. Just stay away from those areas and enjoy the rest of the city. This isn't rocket science. Smh, at those complaining about Higgins Ave. Or Spence...wtf you doing there in the first place. Every city ever founded has some low track areas, and newsflash they are almost always bordering on downtown. Have some awareness, stay outta there, and quit bitching about it. Good lord.
    If you can't find one redeeming quality, or even a reason why you are staying why stay?

    I've lived in Calgary since 1990. We have all these shiny new (empty) office towers downtown. But that's all this city is. Looks good on a postcard or on television with the impressive downtown against the backdrop of the Rocky Mountains but other than that, Calgary has nothing going on downtown. Economiucally, this town is just starting to get back on it's feet after about 6 or 7 years of hard economic times. One thinh though, what calgary has always been in boom times or bust still remains the same. This place shuts down for business at 5 pm Monday to Friday& the entire downtown is deserted at night & on weekends.
    Most Calgarians know better than to come to the Stephen Avenue Mall downtown at night for fear of getting stabbed or mugged. hanging out at Olympic Plaza at night or in front of City Hall. Or taking the C Train where drug deals are consumated on the platforms in front of people waiting to hop on the trains or even inside the trains themselves.
    Murders, stabbings & horrendous assaults have caused the City & Province of Alberta to spend millions on crime prevention with i9ncreased security measures like cameras at every C Train station,  the hiring of transit police officers to ride the trains randomly or for officers to work at problem stations along the 3 different lines we have in Calgary coming in & out of the downtown now. Ridership is way down. People are scared to use the C Trains after dark. I tell ya, I sure wouldn't get on one anymore.
    If anyone (like Bluto) thinks Toronto is better than anywhere else then they're either very naive or clueless. With homelessness at an all time high every city now has a problem. Urban crime is increasing. Last time I looked, I didn't see any demonstrators blocking bridges into Winnipeg's downtown like what's happened in Toronto. And yet, in high crime Winnipeg no one is threatening skaters on the Red River like what happened at Nathan Phillips Square in Toronto or the shootings of Jewish synagogues or private Jewish schools in Montreal. Now, maybe that'll spread as the war in the Middle East goes on but right now, where's the problem? In our  3 biggest cities. Toronto, Montreal & Vancouver. 
    Affordabilty (rent & mortgage payments) is 90% of livability so....

    I’ve lived in Calgary most of my life, and it’s taken a sharp decline, especially post pandemic. I don’t bother walking around downtown unless I’m in a densely populated area.
    I’ve also spent time living in Orlando FL, and that was… certainly an experience.
