Yes, that was my point exactly. The feds help to fund healthcare to maintain Canadian standards but each provinces run it so why is Dr. Theresa Tam even saying anything? Why do we even have a Canadian Chief Medical Officer? To me, she is redundant. Her words mean nothing to me except as an annoyance.

Healthcare may be a provincial responsibility but it is funded by Ottawa thru the Canada Health Act.

I don't like her. She never took the lead on directions from the feds right from the start. That was left up to every province to find a way to do it themselves. Leadership from her wasn't there from her office. Good thing some of the provinces didn't go the way of Republican states down south. First, the mixed messaging from her about masks in the spring. Now the zany message she sent late last week about being better to have sex with yourself, no kissing & better mask up during sex. Like WTF? Since the provinces have been setting the pace since March, I'll go with what the CMO of Alberta says. Not Tam. Especially after that last golden nugget of advice. I've been masking in public now since it became mandatory in Calgary in early August. Being a schoolbus driver, I mask pretty much all day now. Use a face shield & gloves when kids embark & disembark. Disinfect my bus twice a day. after the morning & afternoon run.

Joe Montana says, "Join us". -
I listen to our Provincial Chief Medical Of Health. I just ignore anything that Dr. Theresa Tam says.

That video of trick field goals came out about a month & a half before his last ever & most dismal game in a Bomber uniform. I remember watching it & saying to myself that he'll regret making it if he misses a key FG & it costs us a game or a playoff spot. I never imagined he'd have a game like that one which made that video seem even worse.
-
Surprised he never did any trick kicks field goals like off the roof of the new stadium, from Row 25 in the upper bowl of the grandstand, through the tunnel in the concourse then right thru the uprights.
-
Just want to know how they pay players, travel costs.all other expenses & salaries for coaches, team & league officials?

It was Shivers who turned that fanbase into the assclowns they are today. He was a piece of work. In 2000, Shivers first year as Riders GM they were coming off a 3-15 season in 1999 mired in last place. They managed a surprising 52-52 tie with Calgary at Taylor Field in July of 2000. They lost the second game again at Taylor Field in late September 40-17 & going into the third game in Calgary in October. Shivers went absolutely crazy in the media all week leading up to that game. Not just predicting a Rider win over the Stamps with just 4 wins but telling everyone how much he hated Calgary. The team, the players, the City & the fans. I had never heard an executive from any pro team go off on an opponent like that before. I was trying to find some quotes by Shivers from the 2000 season regarding the Stamps organization but couldn't as it was 20 years ago. Meanwhile it was Wally who gave Shivers his chance to get into upper management by hiring Shivers away from BC as a scout into the position of Stampeders Asst GM in 1990. It was like Shivers had lost his mind that entire week or was on crack or both. He was ranting & raving about his hatred of everything red & white. Shivers fired up the fanbase in Saskatchewan into an Us vs Them thing. Turned them from a respectable group of fans into a bunch of morons during his time there. They're still a lot like that today.

So, how's Wheeler's return to the morning airwaves going?

It must be the Nazis fault.

How can a soccer league that relies nearly 100% on ticket revenue play while the CFL couldn't?

Oh please. I'm talking your language now. I think Kenney is a ****. Don't overdo it.

She kept saying she was for the oil patch yet there she was marching in anti oil demonstrations before she became Premier. She hired anti oil activist Tzeprah Berman to advise the provincial energy department. She appointed anti oil activists on the Alberta Energy Regulator. Notley was friendly with Greenpeace activists & then go out & pay $2 billion dollars for rail cars to move oil. She would say one thing then do the opposite so how were we supposed to judge who was better or worse? Maybe if she governed with some kind of consistency & didn't send out mixed messages she'd still be in power. Her stupidity helped with her downfall as well.

Two schools (one in Calgary & one in Okotoks) with Covid outbreaks before school even started.

Some choice we had. Flaming socialists or flaming social conservatives. No real choice in the middle.

I'm not Hall of Fame material.

It was reported today that Alberta had 402 new cases since Saturday. The Alberta government has removed the requirement for social distancing in schools as of today. Schools reopen tomorrow. One elementary school in Calgary has reported a Covid outbreak today. The Principal, Vice Principal & Secretary may have come in contact with someone who has tested positive for Covid. They have to quarantine for 14 days. Neither the Calgary Board of Education, Alberta Department of Education or Alberta Health Services are closing the school & it will stay open. Another principal is being sent to the school while the other one quarantines. Our Premier & his damned government is bound & determined to open schools on their terms & aren't listening to anyone. They know best & people may die.

I have been a CFL fan since 1965. I was a season ticket holder with the Bombers for nearly 20 years. However, I don't consider myself to be any better than you. Or others posters. Yes, I've seen more than most here from monumenmtal games to great players of the past but I have never thought or wished my name would appear with the Grey Cup in the Hall Of Fame. I've done nothing to warrant my name be with the Cup in any way, shape or form.

Time to retire, Charles.

Ummm... okay.

Now that the Jets have been out for a couple of weeks does aanyone really care about the NHL playoffs? I haven't watched a single second since those ******* Flames eliminated the Jets. -
Sad to say but you guys were living in a fantasy world with numbers so low for so long. I sensed a bit of overconfidence here that you had it licked & other provinces were the problem. Well, welcome to our world now.

Where do you work?

No. We know what it means.
