Picking a young, smart woman would be a really nice progressive move for the CPC to show they're not just stodgy old white boys....

Saw someone post a Panthers ad on FB today where they're offering a ticket to the game, $15 voucher for concessions, and tshirt for $29. Just desperate to get people in the door...

I know nothing about Kenny, but as you can see from some of the posters here, there are quite a few people who think Harper was excellent, and a great Prime MInister. Therefore, they will probably also think Jason Kenny is acceptable. I don't think we'll be seeing another PM from Alberta for quite a while. I agree. Today's young people are quite different from their boomer parents, and face a much more difficult, uncertain future. I heard an interview this am saying that the Liberals espouse proportional representation. I hope they bring it in. Too many people are unrepresented under the current system. The most obvious thing to keep in mind is the sheer volume of immigrants now compared to then and how society is so much more multi-cultural and, therefore, living life differently and expecting different things. It's a completely different landscape now, and today's PM has to understand and celebrate that. I think JPTs first speech, last night, hinted that he can be that guy...

You sound like a lot of baby-boomers I know who voted for the first Trudeau in 1968. They too felt that it was time for the younger generation to take over from the old guard, and the "Just Society" was the way to go. They ended up being pretty disillusioned though in the end with how things worked out, and many I talk to regretted their decision. I don't think that the expectations for Trudeau 2.0 are nearly as lofty as they were for the first one, and I also don't think this Trudeau will govern the same way. He seems far more inclusive than his old man, and I hope I am right on that. As Canadians now are much different than Canadians then.......

Kenney is one of the slimiest pricks in Canadian politics. He's a Harper right-hand-man, so I'd hope the party faithful, after seeing how rabidly Canada voted out Stephen Harper (I really feel people were voting against him, not the party in general), won't elect one of his cronies as leader. They really need someone more progressive if they're going to continue to compete....

Nothing wrong with that. Except that it shows how utterly pathetic our scouting and GM are. Actually quite the opposite.....because they're constantly working to upgrade, and not just sitting on "Ehhh, good enough....."

Of course you did, because it's the most contrarian opinion to be had. Hiring DD would be no better than keeping MOS on, which I'd be just as happy to do.

Welllllllll......DD can say he wants to stay, but eventually someone's going to come calling with an offer he can't refuse. One way or another, this has to be resolved for the Stamps, at some point......

Darrin Bauming ‏@DarrinBauming 4m4 minutes ago #Bombers add three INTs to the PR: DL Ethan Farmer, RB B.J. Catalon, REC Spencer Davis. The club has released INT RB Steve Miller.

If you check the Twitter feed scrolling down the right side, looks like buzz is back re: Huff to Riders next year. Jamie Nye claiming that Scott Mitchell of Calgary Sun thinks Huff is going to get forced out because he doesn't want to quit coaching and the tall foreheads want Dave **** to take over....

Curious -- what makes someone ineligible?

I love this. The next generation is taking over, and the youth (see: non-Blue Hairs) vote carried the day. Nearly 70% voter turnout...massive upgrade....with the biggest upswing being in those Under-40, which is not the usual prime voter demographic. As a 1980 baby, I consider myself Gen-Y, right in the middle of the Gen-Xers and the Millennials, and I think our generation is starting to make some noise.

weather looks like **** for Saturday, so this will help bring a few people out anyhow...

f***ing nerds....

I was so chapped when they used the GST reduction as a cheap vote-get. Pissed me off to no end. So many idiots barked like seals about how great it was, not realizing the easy money it provides for the government. I'm a big fan of goods and service taxes...don't wanna pay it? Don't buy stuff. It's that simple.

I'm okay with higher taxes, if it means stimulating the economy and having more "stuff"......lower taxes is all well and good for my cheque, but it feels un-Canadian when it's at the expense of various programs, whether that's Arts/Culture, or whatever....

They've found goaltending finally, their forwards are starting to come together (and Eberle is still out another few weeks)....if they ever get the D figured out, they're going to be a force. Just a matter of time.

Loved this so much...

I can confirm the same thing on the Regina Leader Post yesterday,while out there for a wedding...

Curious to know if Willy could play if we got to the ESF by some miracle...

Dudes ate legit. Joey and the boys kick ass..

We'll definitely give them a run next week and likely win.

The deke around the D was impressive, but man how did Ramo even let that in?? It was low, near side! No clue how that puck ever gets in the net.

Man we are some kinda terrible.

Davis is 3rd string tonight, according to Knucks pre-game. Re: Boyd, he says "I'm hearing he wasn't 'all in' on being a QB for the WBB in the CFL" so you can read into that what you like...
