    Covid-19

    Previously in Canada when a member of your household got sick with one of the many epidemics that swept through, a card went up on your door or gatepost. . Each disease had a different colour so people knew what that household had. Only the Doctor was allowed in or out. This was within my parents time. Our local cemetery started where it is because two neighbors lost kids and decided to bury them together. If you walk through that cemetery there are monuments where you can see that a family would lose 5 or 6 children over a 2 year span. Imagine being alone in your house. Your child gets sick. You have seen it before with the other little ones that have died. The Doctor might come, you would hope, but down deep you would know they were dieing. Going through that , 5 or 6 times , in a couple of years. Typhoid, diphtheria, scarlet fever, influenza, polio..... This is why there was no discussion when I was a kid about getting a jab. My parents remembered the days before science and medicine won out over these diseases. And now we protest over wearing a mask and getting a jab . Edit : My mother was a nurse in the 1940s .She dealt with alot of polio victims during a bad outbreak including some that required a " iron lung " to breath. I can't imagine what that tough no nonsense lady would have to say. She would be pretty disgusted by all the silliness.

  3. Picking the guy who once said that former residential school survivors need a stronger work ethic and not more compensation isn't the way to show Canadians you're not a bunch of want to be Republicans.

    People who are angry that their freedom to choose is being taken away in whether they want to help curb this pandemic are literally saying they choose not to help and no one or no mandate should cause consequences for that choice. It's as simple as that no matter how it's dressed up with well articulated lies.

  9. That's par for course it seems for top recievers (Weineke deal)...unless u are idiotic like B.C and now even more idiotic like Sask...wayyyy over pay at the expense of rest your roster....our roster is deep and balanced due to not overpaying foolishly...same with Cgy...and it will show. Weineke makes catches...scores TD's...160k....great value and u still able to surround him with talent. The more I think about it I'd be fine with splitting 250k and a lil extra for Darvin and Harris..and role with them and whatever camp produces...u prob then have money for one of Darby and Stove...we don't need to spend over 175k on top reciever...2 teams are doing that..and I bet they both be battling for 3rd and 4th...we won't be

  12. Also wondering if we are in the Moncreif play...him or Darby kinda thing with maybe back in T.O? I could see Moncreif here..he looks at that defense with the Jeff's...Biggie and Wilson..BA...the DBs...and could put up some serious stats and have legit chance at cup...like to rag on Riders..but they have a legit chance of not making playoffs then making it right now as things stand

  13. Can't see Winnipeg, BC, Calgary offering Duke 300k. Doesn't seem likely that Hamilton did. So Ottawa? (Maybe nut unlikely). Toronto (maybe), Edmonton? Seems like this was bs.

  16. I have the feeling that this is Bailey's break out year,he's been getting better and better. He's got the speed, strength,50/50 ability,I feel he can be good for 1200 yards and 5-10 TDs.

  20. Yeah...but 300k on a reciever is just dumb....and that rumour was prob just Duke spitting out a number...he took the highest dumb offer...and used the "best chance to win a Cup" thing as his reasoning...who would believe a guy who has a rep as and arse..and denied 2 instances of douchery last yr? Like really? They will have a hard time securing 3rd this yr...they lost some key pieces..tho they couldn't get it done...And I don't see them finding 3 olineman to replace their garbage...plus a good d tackle...linebacker ..starting calibre running back...2 solid db's and quality Canadian depth that will be better than last yr...ain't happening...and if they do land Moncreif...it won't be in the cheap...he will go to highest bidder...he has shown that already. Cgy...wpg...have already basically solidified their opening day core...with returning top notch guys...BC is gonna be no pushover if they spend smart on defense in free agency and u can't ignore Slimy Jones in Edmonton...they had peices there last yr...they just did a mutiny and quit...west gonna be interesting

    I just don't see why people anywhere think poilievre is a good choice for leader of the party.... Soundbites to rile up the base aren't leadership... screaming "Trudeau BAD!" "Liberals BAD!" isn't leadership... guy has never ever held a job that wasn't politician. He bring absolutely nothing to the table as far as I can see. Trudeau might be a dope but jesus christ compared to this fool..... Conservatives need someone who can keep the base in line like Harper did if they ever want to have a hope in hell of winning. The majority of voters in Canada won't support a party where it looks like the inmates are running the asylum. O'Tool put forth a pretty good effort to appear progressive in a lot of ways and still didn't manage to win.

    I've thought this many many times. Like IF this is the worst my generation has to go through, it's a ******* joke compared to what previous generations had to handle. Like they can't even be compared. Storming Normandy....or wearing a mask? Rationing your food....or ordering out instead of dinning in? Having your manufacturing business under the control of the government to help the war effort....or get a life saving medicine? and I know the comparisons are apples to apples....but if my grandfather had to listen to motherfuckers cry about masks and school closures and comparing it to what he did in the wars...I can't even imagine what he'd say....******* *******.

  37. Tyreke is one of one. There is no one in the world that compares to him as a combo of pure speed, quickness, route running, catching ability. There is a reason why many NFL teams have drafted busts trying to get the next Tyreke. I know it is a stretch but if i was to compare Demski to someone in the NFL it would be Deebo Samuel. thick but fast. Canmake guys miss but also be a physical runner. No way the bombers lose both AH and Brady Oliveira, correct?

  39. Lawler is taller..Baikey is bigger....2 different types of guys...I wouldn't want Bailey to assume the Lawler role..Bailey gonna Excell in the younger version of Nick Lewis...big plays...tough yard plays...solid and reliable...that's what I want and see from him Blake Jackson too may be the dark horse...dude has all the tools..runs a 4.4 and the best thing was a college QB and that's invaluable with the 2 qb rostering thing...from what I heard he was a lock to make the roster if not hurt Agadusi as the Z intruiges me and who wouldn't want that big dude downfield looking for lobs and 50/50 balls? Get Woli in the slot or just closer to the ball...we still have good cheaper options in FA when added to Demski..Woli and Bailey that would serve us well...and I wouldn't write off Adams either ..longer in tooth now but he still brings it and needs attention from defenses...but also brings that grit that made or receiver core what it was. Heck...convert Harris into Nik Lewis lite...I bet that option to get a pass..shovel pass...drop into backfield with JA or BO would give defenses fits

    Here’s what I just read on someone’s feed. ‘We are fighting for our freedom because we are being forced out of society because we won’t get the jab’. Global pandemic that has killed millions, decimated livelihoods and severely strained healthcare system means that to you? Hmmmm. Another meaning that comes to mind is maybe self entitled prick who just can’t think outside their little bubble world? Right, sorry be nice love everyone regardless of taking the jab or not. Another post I read that made me gag.

  45. I don't know what did or didn't happen, but I hate the speculation around a guy who is directly responsible for our first GC in nearly 30 years.... He deserves better than a bunch of bullshit being spouted around here. This isn't just some random player from the states. This is a local legend who gave everything for our entertainment.

  46. It was injury related. They hoped he would be healthy to come back at some point but didn't seem to happen. Not at all. 0 chance that if some thing like that happened that it'd get out of the room. But also no way Harris came in out of shape and sassy.
