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!!!

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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?

Restaurant/food thread
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.

"A new report suggests cleaning up all of the old and unproductive oil and gas wells in Alberta will cost between $40 billion and $70 billion. The number of wells in the province slated to be remediated is about 3,000, however, there are more than 100,000 unproductive wells that will need to be cleaned up." https://www.cbc.ca/news/business/orphan-wells-alberta-aldp-aer-1.5089254

This photo says a lot, not only does Kenney disagree with the carbon tax, he doesn't give a damn about climate change and he's proud to project that image to the world. Sounds like a real leader, I'm actually surprised the truck isn't a 350 considering all the baggage he has to haul around. Full story. https://www.cbc.ca/news/politics/trudeau-gas-prices-climate-change-analysis-wherry-1.5079772

The MBB All-time Blue Bomber team: Running backs
Harris is a great back but I wouldn't rate him that high in terms of pure physical talent, at least not compared to many other RB's on the list who had jaw-dropping explosiveness. He has accomplished his greatness through very hard work, determination, a great O-line and an offence that highlights him. Kind of a work mule among thoroughbreds.
