  1. Corney's retirement is not official, Walters mentioned it in passing but Corney has never acknowledged it. I wouldn't be surprised if he made a comeback after rehabbing his injuries, he's an athletic fanatic who's not likely to quit. Could well be that he pursues a more lucrative career than CFL football to exploit his athleticism, he might become a gorgeous wrastler.
  2. Comedy gold. Kenney followed the rules by claiming mom's basement as primary residence, board decides. https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/calgary/jason-kenney-primary-residence-mp-expense-1.5120002 Dear Mom lives in a retirement home that doesn't allow subletting.....oops.
  3. Got to love this kid. Runs like a young Andrew Harris.
  4. Permafrost is thawing in the Arctic so fast scientists are losing their equipment "Climate scientists have assumed a slow, steady erosion of permafrost and a similar pace of carbon release. Turetsky and her colleagues found something different. Instead of a few centimetres of thaw a year, several metres of soil can destabilize within days. Landscapes collapse into sinkholes. Hillsides slide away to expose deep permafrost that would otherwise have remained insulated." "Soil analysis found those quickly thawing areas also contain the most carbon. Nearly 80 per cent of them hold at least 70 kilograms of carbon per cubic metre. That suggests permafrost is likely to release up to 50 per cent more greenhouse gases than climate scientists have believed. As well, much of it will be released as methane, which is about 30 per cent more efficient at trapping heat than carbon dioxide." https://www.cbc.ca/news/technology/permafrost-melting-1.5119767
  5. TSN ✔@TSN_Sports Hockey Hall of Famer and legend Red Kelly has passed away at the age of 91. Take your pick of Reds, they're all dead.
  6. I like him too! LaPo could make good use of a Nik Lewis type monster inside to replace Dressler and save wear and tear on Harris. Throwing him out on the boundary would be a complete waste.
  7. Barr no-show causes chaotic scene in House Good exchange, the function of government institutions must be respected as they're preservation is more important than current politics.
  8. For $100 million I would hope so, problem is I don't see even $10 million in material costs, unless of course those cables are spun with gold. "The cost estimate for the project has jumped to $97.8 million from the original $75 million, the conservancy said in a news release Monday. The increase is due to multiple factors, including a one-year delay in construction and the overall design complexity of The Leaf, it said." Building it may be complex, designing it was not with computer aided design, at this point I'm screaming NFW and waving red flags!!!
  9. They also have Maxx Forde.
  10. Kyle Walter pre-draft press conference live broadcast. https://www.pscp.tv/w/1kvJpOzZonQGE
  11. Sure, but this article is focused on the problems the oil sands are facing. The US has converted their import facilities on the gulf coast into export facilities due to the glut created from fracked oil , so expanding pipeline capacity does not guarantee increased demand for any of our oil products.
  12. Kenney got himself elected, now what? Belot: Albertans have been fooled by a myth about pipelines and the oilsands https://www.nationalobserver.com/2019/04/23/opinion/belot-albertans-have-been-fooled-myth-about-pipelines-and-oilsands
  13. Great map. Case in point, Canada with a population of 36.6 M produces more CO2 emissions than Mexico with a population of 129.1 M and Brazil with a population of 209.2 M.
  14. Did you read the middle bits of the article you posted earlier explaining how the Western world both contributed and benefited the most during this period of rapid increase in the level of CO2? When is enough enough? We can choose to help the future victims of climate change prepare, accept responsibility and do our part to cut down on emissions or we can do nothing and watch them starve to death on TV, your choice.
  15. I think it is prioritized by amount owed, those at the bottom will get....nothing.
  16. CFL GM's are well practised at this game, they'll wait until the flesh drops from the bones.
  17. Sorry, I'm buying an electric car and heating with wood, I'm beyond my tipping point.
  18. Gas prices here in BC are hovering at $1.50/L and that is before they jump the price for the long-weekend, rumour has it we will see $1.70/L this summer. We are now paying more for a liter of gas than we were when oil was selling for $100 per barrel. This has nothing to do with a new carbon tax as we have being paying that for over a decade already.
  19. The P.A. has never had much bargaining power and they know it, they're just trying to make as much noise as they can.
  20. I prefer "ole dumb-ass".
  21. That's taking a fairly radical view but not close to reality. There is no sense hamstringing the technology with restrictions and no reason the head ref. and the command centre can't be in constant communication, assisting wherever they can add valuable insight to achieve the best results.
  22. MLSE owns the Argos as well as the Leafs, Raptors and TFC, if they can't figure out how to make the Argos viable with all of their experience and resources, what do you expect Ambrosie to do to alter the situation?
  23. I really hate DQ's menus, such a confusing mish-mash, trying to order for one adult and two of kids always ends up with too much food or not enough. Second worst menus are McD's with their "now you see it, now you don't" graphics.
  24. Two long forgotten Canadian artists from the mid 70's Bill Amesbury and Ken Tobias.
