    A & W also says all their chickens are raised on a vegetarian diet. That's probably true, but it's true for vast majority of chickens.

    Actually, chickens can be carnivores under the right circumstances, even callibalistic.

    I wasn't against the restrictions, vaccine passports & masking. However, with vaccines available now & the fact that Covid 19 is weakening with every new variant I'd be against all that now. We have to get on with life. Canada's Chief Public Officer of Health Theresa Tam saying we need to mask again will never happen. Restrictions are certainly out as well. 

    Pandemics and their mutations are notoriously difficult to predict. Keep your options open.

    I just don't get what it means as far as beef is concerned & safety of those eating A & W burgers.

    There is some evidence, albeit fragmentary at this time, that eating flesh of animals that have ingested antibiotics for a long time or shortly before being processed can build antibiotic resistance in consumers. There is solid proof that producers were overusing antibiotics  in their animals as prophylactic measures. So far as I am aware, that practice has been largely stopped.

    Newly discovered correspondence suggests that World War II-era Pope Pius XII had detailed information from a trusted German Jesuit that up to 6,000 Jews and Poles were being gassed each day in German-occupied Poland. https://www.nbcnews.com/news/world/letter-showing-pope-pius-xii-detailed-information-german-jesuit-nazi-h-rcna105500

    Don't get me started on Catholic/Papal involvement in Nazi atrocities.

    Can I whine about construction again, it keeps delaying the bus schedule and it aggravates me considering how far it is from my home to my workplace

    We are seeing work being done that was delayed for years and is now finally being accomplished. Does seem to be getting better, though, and the improvements are great!

    Now the stupid disbelievers aren't getting the required shots for diseases like Diptheria, Polio, Mumps & Measles for their kids. Claim they're unsafe. I guess putting on leafy underwear & dancing barefoot around a fire moaning incoherently works now. What a bunch of moronic fools for parents. 

    And yet vaccinating domestic animals has not slowed at all. 

  18. Former Bombers in NFL (and spring leagues) news

    And if the league is losing money it means ratings tank & lost advertising as well as networks who were televising them to say buh bye. I don't think any of the principles here want to sink their money into a bottomless pit. 

    The TV networks have to still remember the debacle of the last XFL. It wasn't just the lost money, but watchers could see the almost-empty stands and amateurish play. A total embarrassment to all. The only good that came of it was that a very few players managed to make it to legitimate teams.

  24. CFL - 2023 Regular Season - Discussion Thread

    While attendance does seem to be making a comeback in most cities in the CFL a little bit, the pandemic really hurt the Riders. They were seling out until the season got cancelled in 2020. It's never really come back. 

    I think the biggest reason for their attendance downturn is that they have an inept head coach and a poor team.

    rotation....with the right personnel would be a night and day difference...thats the key part to it....and we could do it with the right ones if we wanted to, thats the frustrating part

    Decent also doesn't cut it....and I dont think he is the best option, and I know exactly why he being the option right now, but why beat a dead horse to death...He is an Osh fav in cole's notes and will be there until he gets injured now

    His post game presser as well gave no confidence in anything they are doing or thinking as well....he almost seems clueless or oblivious to things

     

    O'Shea seems to have succumbed to the Dave Ritchie syndrome- loving his pet players more than the team he is responsible for. Being and ex-player with a starry career, he is a player's coach, which is good and bad. As good as O'Shea has been, Walters has built this team and will likely be in conflict with O'Shea if this persists. We will not know what is going on internally but we have to hope the self-preservation, if nothing else, will motivate O'Shea to do whatis needed and soon.
