Perhaps this the right link: https://www.cbc.ca/news/politics/beyak-retirement-1.5886435#:~:text=Lynn Beyak%2C the controversial senator,resigning from the Red Chamber. Lynn Beyak, the controversial senator from northwestern Ontario with a long history of making inflammatory remarks about Indigenous peoples, is resigning from the Red Chamber. Beyak, who was named to the Senate by then-prime minister Stephen Harper in 2013, is leaving just as other members of the upper house were preparing to consider a motion from Independent Sen. Mary Jane McCallum to permanently remove her from the upper house.

Oh, sure, you're using evidence and not just yelling at the wall. Seriously, it's all a bad faith argument. It always is. Nothing of value and nothing redeeming.
-
Or can't. Every. Time.

It's sad when people just make stuff up, have no evidence and just yell at others. Pathetic actually.
-
If you can't make up your own stuff and call it facts what's the point anymore! Save your breath.

Round 1 - Game 1 : @ Venetian Golden Knights

They can if they stay interested. They played like this until the end of December. Let's just see if anyone does something stupid, like run an opponent when they're vulnerable, and fire them up. They can take this series. -
Tell me someone in the GOP that's not lying, stealing raping children and procuring sex for favours/cash and I'll show you one that just hasn't been caught yet.

Another way to look at it, the Leafs went four-under on the first hole.

The CPC need a real climate action plan. Without it, they're just stuck in the past. (Like 25 years in the past) I remember Bateman coming to my door during the last election and we chatted for a while. I said that I couldn't vote for her for many reasons but, foremost, was the lack of a climate action plan. She stood there and told me they had one and went up and down about it. But, it was evident that she knew I could see right through it and it would just mean corporate welfare payments that would go into the pockets of the executives as bonuses. I told her that. Mulroney actual had a climate plan in 80s. Since then, absolutely nothing. We continue to download climate problems to the next generation. We're beyond pretending that climate change is not manmade and we're beyond pretending we can just allow oil companies and others free reign. They don't get this because all they care about is money in their pockets. We need action and the CPPC are just dinosaurs.

Let's go down this path... the PMO has too much power. This is something I absolutely agree with. It's been a problem for a while and has been exasperated by the Harper and Trudeau gov'ts. More power has been concentrated in that office than should be there. In the past, the MPs voted on the leader for the party. I would like to go back to that practice. It's the Westminster system. That would put the power back into the hands of the gov't MPs. If there was a "revolt", they could replace the leader. This would also put more emphasis on the importance of elections and more importance in the role of the MP. Unless you live in Papineau, you're not voting for Trudeau. Unless you live south of Ottawa, you're not voting for Poilievre. Let's stop pretending we are.

It's a minority gov't. Not like he has prorogued it to avoid a non-confidence vote. What sort of autocrat would do that!? Sounds like projecting.

No wonder so many people dislike him. Wait until a federal campaign and the rest of the country learns what a useless liar this guy is.

C's get degrees. -
You know what's great about an effective opposition? New ideas and holding gov't accountable. But, it's hard to hold a gov't accountable when you're starting culture wars and yelling at the wind. It's sad and pathetic. At least the NDP bring ideas.

VGK are going to be upset that everyone is taking the Jets. They'll want to jump out fast. Tough not to take the Jets with Helle but VGK wants the best team this year in the west and they're getting a star back just in time. Vegas in 5, hoping I'm way off. -
We're literally talking about playoff teams.

Reporter checked with legal sources before doing it. They conducted business, which is part of the open gov't rules down in Oklahoma and got caught. Racist garbage do not like being recorded. Shine a light on the GOP!

Oh, I'm also happy when the Blue Jays and Red Sox fail. Happily, the Yankees fail a lot less than them.
-
I'm not sure what franchise has been worse handling the talent they've been gifted, the Oilers or the Leafs?

I'm sure there will be some public disclosure. Can't imagine Dominion worrying about their image and only taking money. Maybe Tucker will have to tell everyone of his fans, on air, what he actually thinks of them?
