Then my work here is done.

My retinas just detached because my eyes rolled so far into the back of my head.......

You mean this one?

Wait until you find out how many live in Toronto and don't have equal representation!

Can we just lock this thread already?

From the Canadian Press. I've bolded my favorite part: Other cartoonists have stepped forward to denounce Adams, like Bill Holbrook, the creator of “On the Fastrack,” a strip that features an interracial family and — like “Dilbert” — focuses on a modern workplace. “One of the things I wanted to spotlight with my characters is that people do rise above their differences. It can work,” Holbrook said. “That’s the spotlight I wanted to focus on and still do. It’s all a matter of where you want to put your focus.” Holbrook said the Adams case is not one of so-called cancel culture but of consequences. “I am in full support with him saying anything he wants to, but then he has to own the consequences of saying them,” he said. “He’s not being canceled. He’s experiencing the consequences of expressing his views.”

My daughter pointed me in her direction a few months ago. Looking forward to seeing her for sure.

Every time I hear “my work here is done” this is immediately where my head goes.

Considering the politics out here, can you blame them?

And Clements got hurt too after showing OK as a stop gap for a while. This team really was hammered by injuries last season.

Winnipeg Jets owner True North considering purchase of Portage Place mall, multiple sources say Option to purchase downtown mall on the table, according to city report due to be published Monday Bartley Kives · CBC News · Posted: Mar 06, 2023 5:00 AM CST | Last Updated: 4 hours ago The real estate division of True North Sports and Entertainment is considering a purchase of downtown Winnipeg's beleaguered Portage Place mall, according to multiple city, provincial and non-governmental sources. City council is poised to publish on Monday a report about a proposed sale of Portage Place that would give True North Real Estate Development, a division of the company that owns the Winnipeg Jets, an option to purchase the 36-year-old property, according to the sources. The purchase option would only be exercised after a months-long due diligence period as well as community consultations, said several sources familiar with plan. CBC News has not viewed the report. True North Sports and Entertainment acknowledged a request for comment but did not issue a statement. Sources familiar with the report said they were not aware what plans True North may have for the mall. Over the past two decades, True North has made hundreds of millions of dollars worth of investment into downtown Winnipeg through the construction of the Canada Life Centre, the Centrepoint development to the north of the hockey arena and the True North Square development to the west. As well, True North executive chairman Mark Chipman has on several occasions expressed a desire to alleviate homelessness and addictions in downtown Winnipeg. Jets owner says 24/7 addictions drop-in centre should be part of massive rethink of addictions strategy Manitoba earmarks $3.6M for partnership working toward 'safer, healthier' downtown: premier In 2019, Chipman said he supported a 24/7 addictions drop-in centre in downtown Winnipeg to alleviate what he described as "the most heartbreaking of circumstances." Two years later, he suggested social conditions in Winnipeg's core had only worsened during the pandemic. "It's gone long past just being heartbreaking: it's become, in my humble opinion, a humanitarian crisis," Chipman said in 2021 at a downtown safety partnership event. Chipman also attended a provincial social housing announcement last week. He did not confirm or deny True North's interest in Portage Place, a mall built as one of many downtown Winnipeg revitalization projects.

Considering the differences in salaries, I can understand him hoping his NFL dream will come true. We all live in hope.

Because Trump never did that?

The best part of Regina is you can get out or the city quickly. The best part of Toronto is it’s far away from here.

Not 2023 draft but interesting article in the sun about local product Dallas Simms a wr who has offers from Minnesota, Pitt, Purdue among others. One to watch.

I watched that movie. It's just a piece of crap all round.

The biggest problem with Genghis Khan was not the casting.

If it were to happen, I'm pretty sure the RAAM clinic would have street access - although I have no idea one way or the other. Also, you can't security yourself out of widespread drug addiction. You need to treat addiction, not punish it.

We are?

make sure to hear sierra ferrell.

Imagine believing Laurentian Elites would stoop to that level and acknowledge the mere existence of the West.

Better lineup than last year for sure: Bosses Nephew and My Chemical Foxes were tight though

Pretty simple to figure out the preferential treatment between Alta. and Que.......one has oil.....the other has population and the votes....Governments will always kiss arse with vote getting.....so Alta. is bringing up the ass end

I agree. However, the XFL or USFL will take the sting out of that somewhat. Kickers are a relatively small community, and is maybe the one position where the same old names circulate year after year as teams don't tend to spend much scouting and developing them. If his availability is there, he is one of a handful of names that will get the call. If he is in the CFL that door closes. Even if he gets a PT gig through an injury he will be earning. Teams are calling him to go straight onto the game day roster. Be different if he were earning CFL QB money, but the pay gap between the Spring Leagues and the CFL for kickers is not that huge.

This. It’s not hard to see his logic. Highest paid CFL kicker made $150,000 and average is around $100,000, lowest paid NFL kicker made $660,000 and average is $2.5 million. And Lirim says kicking in the CFL closes the door on a mid-season call-up to the NFL, given the season overlap and rules about NFL and CFL contract windows. Which is why he will see what the XFL or USFL has to offer so he could jump straight into the NFL season. His 4 game stint in 2021 in the NFL probably paid him more than a full CFL season would. It may be a pipe dream, but the money logic is sound if he even gets just a mid-season sniff.

Einstein was also skeptical that black holes actually existed, even though his math and equations predicted they do.

Its all a facade to sell newspapers. In Alberta, the Sun papers hype how poorly Alberta is treated by the rest of Canada along with railings against the preferential treatment given to Quebec. In Quebec, they portray Quebec as a victim of a Canada that does not understand or care about the province's unique status.

Some Canadian kids doing really well at the combine this year. Idk what the record is for Canadian picks but it may well be broken this year

ICYMI Capo > Schmidt

Disagree. Peladeau is doubtless aware that if somehow Quebec were to separate from the rest of Canada, Quebec would instantly become a third-world country and his net worth would plummet. He is smart enough to woo the separatists in Quebec and fan the flames of discontent in Alberta with much the same rhetoric as his papers use in Quebec. Its the same tactic as Faux News uses to bilk the suckers in the US (and a bit in Canada) where what is being stated as fact is well known as BS but its what the mouth-breathers want to hear and will pay for.

He had to come here because Saskatchewan had nothing worth shitting on. It's the same reason geese fly over Saskatchewan upside down

So despite their intention to show Natives in a positive light, the CBC were hypocrites by not finding a real native to fill this role.

Eastern bias is a real thing in Canada. The Laurentian elites still view western Canada as the backwater hinterland.
