    If people get a chance they should read the NY courts 33 page ruling on the suspension of Rudy Guiliani’s law license. Very well documented evidence of Rudy Colludy’s staggering level of lies and unsupported claims of election fraud. Hopefully this leads to permanent disbarment and adds to the charges he is already facing. Frankly damn near everyone in Trump’s orbit needs jail time or never be allowed in politics again.

  2. I will be the first to admit due to COVID, I am out of practice. Once I've got my second shot I'll have to heckle slow mall walkers and anti-vaxxers to get myself up to speed before August 5th. Desperate times call for desperate measures.

    Similar deal with the Northern health region, but at least they have a semi-decent vaccination rate.

  4. Your map and info is correct. I've been involved in farming all my life ( 63 years old ) and still am albeit in an alternative way. I just had a discussion with my neighbor who is the same age and we both agree we have never seen it like this before. There was zero runoff this year due to a lack of snow. I don't ever remember that. We have had 2 significant rains this year . The city of Morden which gets it's water from Lake Minniwasta is runnining out of water and desperately trying to pipe in Red river water. Its a really ugly situation. And yet , the draining of sloughs and wet lands, tile draining , the removal of trees and bush , the removal of old shelter belts, continues at a frantic pace. If farmers can't get a permit to do this they just ignore the rules and do it anyway. The only time there are issues are if it directly effects a neighbor and causes friction. The fines for doing this illegally are an absolute joke. Its hundreds of dollars where as the land cleared or drained can be worth 5 to 10,000 an acre. The permits to do it legally are often affected by who you know or who you are. The extent ? I could easily come up with 20 examples of drained wetlands or bushes removed in the last couple of years within a 15 minute drive from my place on the escarpment. There is very little movement to stop this. There's not alot of push from those of us living out here to stop it. And frankly those in the city have no clue that's it's happening right on their doorstep or that it's even going on at all. Once a bush or wetland is gone, there is no evidence it was there. As far as tile draining it's really hard to see unless you know what to look for.

  5. Lots of credit and kudos to the Minnesota department of justice, the judge, jury, and prosecuting team. They did it right and he got what he deserved. He can spend the next 22 years terrified of who is around the next corner or coming up behind him.

  6. Honestly the over the top claims make it seem far less credible to me. If some thing seems too good to be true it probably is. How would netflix and streaming even work with our TSN deal? Smells fishy af to me.

  12. the land will be worthless without water. laura rance told me about this years ago. really sad. till a few years ago I lived in rural mb, near anola. got to know a few farmers. I recall recently no hay due to drought and small farmers taking their cattle to slaughter. of course price down. city people didnt know a thing about it. not sure they would care if they did. just the price at the store. very sad stuff. physically strongest person Ive ever met, was a farmer. I had a two horse trailer full of hay....small square bales, he wanted to make room for one last bale, one shove, he pushed the entire load forward ro make room by himself. holy crap. good luck to you this summer. hit 39 van island yesterday. record.

    Hopefully, 25% double vaxxed means fewer of the daily cases will need hospital care. It will be interesting to watch the southern health region. They don't have a large urban centre, yet they still have 20 - 30 cases every day - about half of Winnipeg's number.

    Stripping Trump of his wealth and status would be a greater blow than any imprisonment. Moreover, his flunkies did not do this without Trump's direction, so they will roll on him in a nanosecond. "The wheels of the gods grind exceeding slow but they grind exceeding fine".

    Well, they need depth for injuries. Besides, guys have to be pushed to make it competitive.

  19. That's TSN's problem. They own the TV rights but I doubt they own any streaming international rights. If it makes TSN pay up to have them then good. They've had a good thing going for along time at a cheap price. I'm all for more money & exposure. Maybe they'll actually take broadcasting the games more seriously & be better partners with the CFL because they sure don't do much now.

  25. Yup, it’s a really good show. When it first started airing on CBC, the commercials made me think it was pretty lame… But then I watched, on recommendation from several friends, and it was very well done.

  26. I'm guessing you haven't actually watched it then? It's about an extremely rich family that lost everything....except ownership of a small shitty town where they go and live. And it's hilarious thank you very much!

  27. I really think this would be huge if a streaming service such as Netflix was an official streamer of CFL and XFL. Could reach an international audience and if they did shows like Last Chance U you would get people watching that have no connection to football watching. I know a lot of people of who now watch F1 because of the there show on Netflix.

    That's the thing about loosened restrictions: just because you now CAN do something (e.g. go out to a restaurant, have 10 people over in your backyard) doesn't mean you SHOULD. Unfortunately most people will react like they're at the mall on Boxing Day morning.

    Seems like such a little thing, but I love a DB who looks back for the ball instead of watching the receiver's hands/eyes. It's what made Winston Rose sooooo good.

    Y'know, you were all over someone for necro-posting the other day, and you dig up a March post of mine? Just sayin'....... But yes, this guy is an ******* who's going to cause a COVID daily case spike because he couldn't do the smart and reasonable thing.....

    This is a huge part of the anti-vax rhetoric. They know people in the medical field who don't get vaccinated - which then affirms their strange beliefs.

    The thing Is that once the majority of manitoba is doubled vaxxed it probably won't matter as much that a place like Winkler has low double vaccine rates. Where is it gonna come from?

    More people are doubled vaxed than have gotten a dose in WInkler. 35% doubled vaxed and Southern is under 54% with one dose.
