  1. I wouldn't be surprised if people who legit can't get jabbed - were given paid leave until things are stable. There can't be very many - we are approaching 1 million people vaxxed.
  2. Mandatory double vax for education and health care workers.
  3. Exactly. The political spectrum is actually a circle.
  4. Extreme left positions: 1. Russia under Stalin (already debated this one) 2. Cancel Culture 3. Pretend socialism, especially by the Liberal party. I'm not sure if I would call this extreme leftism or just inappropriate, but it has become the norm in Canada and it is really is a big issue.
  5. I guess it depends how badly they want the player. I mean if it's your starting QB or say your stud Left Tackle - you're probably going to do it.
  6. You can cross the border unvaxxed, if you isolate for 14 days. Not sure why anyone would chose that hassle.
  7. Which, even with a veteran QB, can lead to erratic QB play.
  8. Lack of a running game and the Bombers had no answer for the Argos' pressure.
  9. Mike Reilly
  10. I have the same concern. Unfortunately, the internet is not helping the situation. I think it's also a case of us not having felt the economic impact. Agriculture was relatively unscathed by covid 19, and manufacturing actually increased. So, it's easy to sit back and feel safe in your isolated niche. There are also those colonies who have had outbreaks, and think they have herd immunity.
  11. I'm double-vaxxed myself, as are many other Hutterites that I know, but you are absolutely right about a good number of Hutterite colonies. But there only 10 000 Hutterites in Manitoba, quite widely dispersed. I don't know if we'd make a significant statistical difference in any municipality. For example, Cartier has far more Hutterite colonies than North Norfolk, and it is not on the low vax rate list.
  12. The results for this week aren't posted yet.
  13. Same with me. Visiting family in Piney, MB.
  14. Rough week in the pick 'ems
  15. Realization will be slow.
  16. They won't. Money will only be good for kindling.
  17. I would call that playing to win vs. Playing not to lose.
  18. Schlitz is the Hutterite word for the fly of your pants - make of that what you will.
  19. Then let's hear your example of extreme socialism.
  20. I quit the NFL 3 years ago - have not watched a single game. Its been a good decision.
  21. He must be seeing all those South Dakota memes.
  22. I'm referring to what happened once Stalin was in charge. They were the extreme left. The government (a small group of people) controlled everything, far beyond the socialism of Marx. There was no free enterprise whatsoever.
  23. What percentage of the double vaxxed require hospitalization?
  24. Political Spectrum 101: the extreme left and the extreme right are the same thing Let's use the famous cows analogy: Centre: you have two cows, you sell one of them and buy a bull Extreme Left: you have two cows. The government takes them from you, hires you to milk them, and might give you some of the milk. Extreme Right: you have two cows. The government forces you to sell one of them, and tells you exactly which bull you are going to buy with the money. They are both just different forms of control, and both have their extremist followers But hey, don't take my word for it. The most obvious examples are Nazi Germany (extreme right) and Communist Russia (extreme left)
  25. A serious look at the statistical trend indicates....that the O will need to score 20 points by the end of the season.
