Let’s just be generous here with some dollar amounts to speculate. Darvin Adams out (150k), replaced by minimum salary (65k) Steven Richardson out (100k), replaced by minimum salary (65k) Mike Jones out (85k), replaced by Tyqwan Glass (85k) Alden Darby out (100k), replaced by minimum salary (65k) Kenny Lawler out (100k), replaced by minimum salary (65k) Andrew Harris out (175k), replaced by minimum salary (65k) Drew Desjarlais out (100k), replaced by Dobson or equivalent (85k) Jonathan Kongbo out (125k), replaced by minimum salary (65k) Even speculating on what is probably the very high end for most guys there, that’s 390k. And we gave out raises to Bighill, Jefferson, Jeffcoat, Oliviera, Bailey and Collaros.9 points

Oh, well, I guess it's over. Magically disappears. Obviously, can't go out to eat any longer. Was already sketchy but this puts it out of reach. No one cares about the hospitals. I know that this gov't has been blocking the Crown attoneys from going after scofflaws like Monstrosity Burger.6 points

I like the idea of having a jersey of a player representing different generations of Bombers. I have Pop, Walby, Dunigan, Khari, Milt, DB, Stoddard, Armstrong, Roberts... But it kinda ends with that generation. I really should have got a Nichols at some point (I'm sure I'll find one on eBay eventually) and now I need one of the current Gen... I was leaning toward Harris, but maybe Demski. The wife got Bighill, so he's covered. Still pondering... We shall see. And ya, it's a huge jersey fail doing any jersey that's not a standard name and number of a current or former player. Blanks are bad, your own name is bad, anything but a former or current player name and number is bad.6 points

Let me preface my comments and say I am a big supporter of balanced budgets in most situations. One of the reasons is that it then allows us to run a deficit in tough times. I fully understand where printing money and hyper inflation takes us because Ive lived through it. I'm vaxed, still go out and have been a big supporter of our rules. And would like to see the rules slowly reduced. I agree maybe let's ignore the Nazis at these protests. But %90 the others that are protesting have been fighting the rules all along. If we had followed their ways we would have overwhelmed our hospital system. Look up the numbers. Can you imagine matching Peru's %6 fatality rate ? I know multiple anti vaxers whose lives were saved in ICU when they got Covid because there was room for them. These are people who have fought any rules from the start. There is no nation, no society , no civilization ,nor has there ever been one that has not had restrictions on freedoms. What we can't allow is a small group of people to do is stop business, stop trade, and give a black eye to this country internationally. The City, the truckers association, the business associations all are asking for it to be stopped. As far as your solutions for fixing our healthcare system let's discuss #1 ,going totally private. I will ignore Switzerland because they are an outlier in every discussion on anything. Let's look at the US. MY figures are prepandemic and off the top of my head but they should be quite accurate. Cost, Canada - % 10.7 of our GDP. US - % 17.3. Effectiveness, Canada 12- 14 th in life expectancy. The US 32- 35th in life expectancy. Just for fun see if you can name 35 modern, advanced functioning countries. It puts them down with some very ugly company. The last time I looked, the number 1 cause of bankruptcy in the US was illness. The vast majority of people in the US want universal healthcare. But their well to do people are quite healthy. A totally private system can't even enter the discussion. There are many other systems we can look at to fix the inadequacies in our system. Interestingly France had quite a low death rate during Covid and their particular system is often rated very high. But there is no system in the world that wasn't overloaded in Covid. Finally I know just as many people who have been affected by the rules who are pro mask, and vax, as those who aren't. What we see at the protests and blockades are the childish ,arrogant , selfish and thoughtless ones.5 points -

And the interim leader has now flip flopped for the nth time, and asked them to leave. People love to make fun of Trudeau, but Bergen sounds like a 4th grader. Seriously, an MP across the floor explains jurisdiction in answer to a question. She then accuses him of 'mansplaining' things to her.5 points

Anyone who sympathizes with these obnoxious, ignorant, sociopathic idiots and their protest tantrum is no better than they are. This **** is disrupting an already fragile economy, not to mention the lives of people who live and work in the affected areas. And that's to say nothing about the white supremacists, xenophobes, and wannabe insurrectionists involved, regardless of whether or not they hijacked this stupid movement. They're embarrassing this country right now. Every last one of them. **** them. And anyone who continues to give them the benefit of the doubt? **** you, too.4 points -

Biggest thing with Kongbo was he is a very good pass rusher and allowed them to rest Jefferson and Jeffcoat through out the game so they were fresh by the 4th quarter. There was no drop off wonder if they can find anyone to replace those snaps this year to keep a good rotation going.4 points -

To be fair, Goertzen is a smooth-brained moron with the mental capacity of old sponge. Conservatives across the country continue to show their true colours over the last two weeks. They stand for absolutely nothing and fall for some of the dumbest **** known to man. Case in point: https://nationalpost.com/news/im-proud-of-the-truckers-says-poilievre-in-lambasting-justin-trudeaus-response-to-protests Dog whistles, hysterical conjecture, and full on lies. Pandering to gullible, afraid, ignorant idiots who he knows will vote for a greasy scumbucket like him. Meanwhile, back in 2020: Certified flip-flopper with racist tendencies.4 points -

Goertzen on the radio " alot of people ,depending what SIDE OF THE DISCUSSION you are on want us to tell the police to end it. You might like it this time but next time........ blah blah." These morons don't get it. First off , what discussion ? The protestors are breaking the law . Laws you enacted. You have a very small minority demanding they control health regulations. Its effecting business and trade. I'm pretty sure if this goes much longer violence will end up happening. It's embarassing that the US would feel they need to offer to step in. Edit : I just fired off an email to my MLA expressing my view that this needs to end now. I doubt it gets a response or even read but you never know. If they hear enough voices .......3 points -
