You'd be double-jointed?

jealous.

You work less than 70 hours? Slacker. Seriously, some folks need to accept that some rational people of good morals actually believe that government is way too big, way too expensive and makes itself moreso by the year with no process to check the growth. It isn't a weird take.

I think that past governments (ie: ones that were all by degrees smaller) did that just fine. Sure... but fundamentally I choose which ones to have a relationship with (or not). It isn't the same.

I'm being genuine when I say this: It actually saddens me that my fellow countrymen consider my wish for a government that could fit in the box that it came in to be nonsensical.

Why strawman me? I am also for inclusion. So long as it is voluntary. I said it because calling all conservatives scumbags seemed a bit OTT. And I don't care to give you examples of a thing that I don't believe exists... as I have already explicitly stated that I don't believe it exists.

I never said the PCs are what I want. Nor would I. I explained how I don't have a party or prominent leader who reflects my values.

Sorry man. You'll never convince me that the morality of a government who can use force/violence/confiscation/imprisonment on me if I don't just hand over a greater share of what I earn through my labours every year is equivalent to some greedy, for-profit organization who I can elect to not use. You're acting as if I'm defending a greedy CEO on a yatcht lighting his cuban with a picture of Borden (although I doubt our new currency can still do that?)... that's not happening. So doon't strawman me and I won't strawman you. If I choose one food option over another, nobody can confiscate my house, garnish my wages or put me in jail. It's flat out evil. I have grave moral qualms with using force to confiscate money, property or labour. I bet that you do too.

Because to me, it is. Government employs force. I can voluntarily not support anything which I choose not to support... except for my government, which wills itself a greater share of our money every year.

It is the biggest problem. And it only increases in size and expense. Which in turn necessarily limits your freedom through taxation and its sinister twin debtload (taxing your children). I don't see this view as in any way controversial nor as capable of being denied. I further believe that it is the worst and most pervasive form of immorality in my country.

You'll never see me try to convince you of that. Speaking for myself, I'm a voter who hasn't had a party with anything remotely near my values and beliefs for a few decades. Some have talked like they sorta-kinda did... but if given an opportunity to govern they did what every Canadian politician does: increase the size of my government.

Yeah! Those rotten scumbags with their...(checks notes)... desire for a limited and less intrusive government!

Nobody tried to diminish TJ Heath as a player. And nobody tried to downplay the value of what a #1 is worth. I don't know how what I said could be taken that way. I only registered my surprise that anyone would've called that trade a kings ransom that paved the way to a dynasty. Opinions may vary of course, but I think that's a pretty out-there take.

Honestly I'd never thought of the deal as anything that amounted to much. Certainly for us, but I really didn't see a great profit for the Bombers in it. We had to pay a price for a guy who some thought may have become our next starting QB after Ricky finished. He absolutely did not. Bombers have the most wins in the league and 2 'Ships since then. Was the trade a fundamental part of building that run? I'd say not. People are welcome to disagree.

I had no idea that anyone held Faith Ekakite, TJ Heath and Daniel Petermann in such high esteem. For me, I was hopeful that Willy could have been another successful graduate of the Ray/Milanovich/Brady era where we seemed to be supplying half the league with QBs. Turned out, notsomuch.

This debate about Willy and Evans has drilled home to me that the next 3 months can't elapse fast enough.

This wasn't about the quality of a team's picks or their national players. Just about who is retaining their picks.

Count me in the minority that wouldn't be the slightest surprised if Harris still has some good football left to show us. ...now whether he is able to display that in this season's edition of the Riders... I'm skeptical.

South Carolina Gamecocks... that brings back a memory. 2008 International Bowl at the Rogers Centre. South Carolina Vs Ball State. My Argo ST buddies and I went to sit in the cheap seats in the 500 level and had huge banners made saying "Go Balls" and "Go *****". Weirdly, they made us take the ***** one down. edit: looks like we were actually in the 200 level... I thought I remembered being in the nosebleeds. I blame the $15 beers.

IDK man. You'd have thought that the AI would've grabbed our Argo with Shield logo from a few years ago and done a rendition of that guy.

Or add to it... People would pay good money for that sort of body mod. Think of the views they'd get on the Tok.

The Lion should be a mountain lion. The Stampeder horse has 3 legs. The Alouette looks to have a jetpack... ok, maybe that'd be cool. Does that Elk have fangs? The rough rider's uniform looks anything but rough. And look at the horse's back legs planted while the front are floating... just looks off. Is that Nick Offerman's younger, butchier brother dressed as a lumberjack? And the Argo one... uh... ok, Poseidon has like, a lot of abs. But the Bomberbot is a clear homage to someone's favorite Nintendo game:
