The Liberals are starting to fire back about the carbon tax Said in question period today: "Conservatives can either get on board with climate change mitigation measures - or they will stay in opposition." I thought for a second I was reading a post by @Wideleft

Every government either cuts taxes or gives tax credits - they all do it Also, Conservatives and Liberals have both introduced new taxes - they both do it Based on past history and also on rhetoric from certain western provinces - I assume a Conservative government would reduce transfers to the provinces There are not that many other expenses they can cut, that would make that big of a difference I agree strongly with the current government's approach to transfer payments - with Manitoba receiving an additional $1 billion dollars plus each year I can't imagine what our health care would look like - if Trudeau had not increased those transfers again, after Harper cut them

Captaincanuck12 will not return to tonight’s game due to a lower body injury. Sprained ankle due to jumping off and on the bandwagon so much.

Basically how this works is he’s signed with the Rifles and the Bombers are inviting him as a territorial exemption. He can be on the practice roster and keep U Sports eligibility. NCAA is completely different, and he’d likely never qualify to get into a D1 school since he hasn’t attended US high school and is unlikely to perform well on their standardized tests.

F Trudeau Libtard! Sorry caffeine is kicking in. Good morning.

As Hartman enjoys his playoff experience with his co-workers getting points here and everywhere, Ehlers continues to sit on the sidelines. Yup, checks out. If Ehlers was Matthews or McDavid that Hartman intentionally hurt with a dangerous hit I'm not sure Hartman would be enjoying his playoff experioence right now. This is a hard one to let go. In this case a hit was him standing like a wall moving forward slowly shoulder out while Ehlers without the puck is going full speed to get back into the play in a very vulnerable position. I don't need to be a hockey expert nor do I have to be a former NHL player/coach to understand what happened here. I hope Ehlers returns tonight and gets some retribution thru the Knights.

An oldie but a goodie:

The Carbon tax is a dog-whistle issue. It is already in place in California as well as in other locations. It is constantly attacked because it is visible and loudly whined about by the Cons and their lapdogs. It is the future and is an effective way to make people and corporations aware of the impact their choices make on the environment.

There arent enough cuss words......Helle ducked like he was scared of the shot....We showed what were made of today. Lets keep rollin boys........ First 2 periods they let em play then start calling horseshit.....

Wild come back. Now need a big kill to start OT

Holy **** tie game!!!!!!

See what shots on net do???? Brossy is shaky.

Ya Sask is what happens when rural Alberta is a whole province. Manitoba is small enough, and Wpg-centric enough, that Winnipeg can save the province from rural Manitobans that want to go back to 1950s ideals.

Sask. just follows Alberta's lead, Conservatives in MB. would likely do exactly the same if it wasn't so unpalatable to a vast segment of Manitobans.

Interestingly, this candidate had thoughts on MB elex as well...... said that it should be an absolute blowout for the NDP, but they have a nearly un-electable leader, which is going to make it a lot closer than it should be. Said Brian P's insistence on maintaining his Costa Rican residence for nearly half the year would be unthinkable in AB Poli, and that Heather S's inability to communicate has been her downfall. Was laughing about how poor of a public speaker she is....said "say what you want about our current leader (Danielle S) but she's at least a good public speaker"..... On a somewhat side note, a federal politician that I was with at the same event told me that he cancelled his Edmonton CFL tix after more than 20 years because he was so disgusted with the name change to Elks and "caving to this unhinged political correctness"........sigh. #Burta

Always the case with conservative govts.

Hopefully a new stadium as well.

One of many examples knuckle draggers here and everywhere completely dismiss, wave off, don't care to understand an important issue like this that impacts them directly and their inner circles and launch into their usual tirades fed by PP's trump handbook raging. It's mind numbing and also very very embarrassing and dangerous. Owning libtards on social media and driving around their communities with decals and flags is their priority.

Yah, the Stamps signing a DB that old indicates to me their time in the sun is almost over, it looks like the wheels are starting to wobble with the GM change from Huff to Dickie.

Doesn’t sound like the schooling side will fit with him. I think it’d be great if teams could have junior and even cis kids on a separate roster. Not eligible to play but can practice and sit in on meetings and film study. It’d be a big boost to grass roots development. he certainly seems it. The route running, high pointing and late grabbing really shows a natural competitive intelligence that you can’t teach. 100% good for him. Great guy, but time for us to move on. It’s kind of crazy to see the stamps signing our established guys who we are moving on from especially past their prime guys. Don’t get me wrong I think he can contribute. He’d be great as a sub package guy.

@Mark H., I agree with your analysis and will add they would cut the carbon tax and stop the increases to EI and CPP.

Demski is a key piece in all of this, to me. If the kid was too dumb to make it, I think Demski would have said something. For sure Walters would have checked with him. So hopefully this is all much ado about nothing and the kid turns out to be a superstar and a good person that fits in.

someone should ask the Stamps beat writer about picking up a 35 year old coming off an achilles injury..............

Every time I learn something new, something else falls out of my brain. Like that time I took that class on wine making and forgot how to drive.

There are two ways this can go. They can be completely deflated, or completely energized. I'm hoping it's the latter

I can't believe that f****** ref didn't call that hooking call and it leads to the goal against the Jets. ******* trash

I give you credit. You are here every game, win or lose, and wear your heart on your sleeve. The bad ones disappear when the team is rolling, but any slump and back they come chirping about “blow it up”, “(insert player or coach here) needs to go”, “always knew they were lousy”. They’d almost prefer we lose to trash the team and throw in a few “told you so”’s. You’re either with us or you are against us. At the game. Frustrating as hell the first 2 periods. But the crowd is back in it now. More free hockey!

3rd time in 2.0 history the Jets have erased a 3 goal deficit at home. Game 3 vs Nashville in 2018 (down 3-0 after 1, scored 4 straight in the 2nd and won 7-4) and 2021 vs. Edmonton (down 4-1 in the 3rd, won 5-4 in OT). Let’s hope the outcome tonight is similar. Free hockey on tap!

Losing Morrissey was the dagger for this team. Completely deflated

Talk about a timely goal by Connor. Jets just need to settle down and harness the energy. They have this game if they can just keep their wits about them.

I gotta go for a walk. If I even see anyone that looks like they might be cheering for Vegas I’ll effen choke ‘em. Brossoit isn’t an elite goalie!

What kind of effen name is “Chandler”?

Good thing Hartman was punished for 1 whole game. DPOS is really a POS.

The murderer? Yup!

Sask is stable???? Moe is arguably the worst and craziest provincial leader, and that is REALLY saying something!

The rankings are done being useful now that teams use them as smokescreens to hide their interest.

now let's investigate the other ones that voted to expel speaking of which https://www.cnn.com/politics/live-news/abortion-pill-order-supreme-court-04-21-23/index.html they voted to keep it in place for now

Damn... of all things to slow russian tank production...

True that, exactly- just like Harper and the GST... wait- nevermind. Classic starve-the-beast tactic.

I'm hoping it means maybe he's football smart but not exactly book smart... I do agree that not being academically eligible for college sports does seems like a red flag.

The top 5 are definitely all future picks. All are likely to be NFL drafted.

Final Draft rankings are out: https://www.cfl.ca/2023/04/21/matthew-bergeron-takes-top-spot-in-spring-scouting-bureau-rankings/

Seems not paying him is a potential loophole:

Schief looks like he was out on the Strip last night...

He gave up the puck at least twice by using his tricky passes, that don’t work. He’s a high skill player but darn, I’d expect more.

I have no where near the hate for Boston as I do for Toronto. In fact Boston does nothing for me emotionally good or bad. As for the Leafs, I probably require expert help.

59 days.

Postmedia, say no more.

Check the article again. Walters isn't saying anything about his talent being too good to pass on, he's just saying that IF it came down to MOSJ and someone very similar, it'd be hard to overlook the personal connection.
