  1. We should just stop learning??? I don't understand that POV.Learning is nice, but have we really gotten anywhere with our expanded knowledge? New tech, same old evil. I like indoor plumbing and electricity. I consider these to be good things.
  2. No I'm saying that your plan of stopping all progress until we stop killing each other just means stopping all progress because we'll never stop killing each other. The "we shouldn't do X until we have world peace, end starvation, etc etc" viewpoint is just silly, IMO.
  3. Good news either way. Not a huge fan of the other parties' plans to raise taxes across the board. NDP said corporate taxes will go up and Liberals said the top tax bracket would increase. Was there anything else? Have you seen the Liberal spending plan? No way they pay for that by "raising taxes for the top 1%" as they say.
  4. The difference is that going to Mars may actually be achievable. Your fairy tale is not.

  6. Can't see the Bruins trading away any defencemen at this point
  7. Yeah and it makes you a bad person
  8. lol yes. Everything that has gone on in the last few years, and "Wear Gold Day" is the all time low. How silly.
  9. Tons. The Canadian aspect of the roster and the draft are what make the league more than just a "B League" where NFL washouts go. If they eliminated the ratio I'd be a lot less inclined to follow the league.
  10. I can get on board with that
  11. I'd be surprised, shocked really, if they have found water on Mars. That would be quite the news.
  12. Refoooooooorrrrrrmmmmmmmmm!!!! Ah yes, we've already done this with Preston Manning and Stockwell Day. Well back to the drawing board.
  13. I like Gilles Duceppe, if I was a Quebecer I would be glad he was the guy representing us. I'm thinking of starting a political party called the North West Party. It will be primarily like the BQ but for BC, AB, SK, MB, and the territories. Do you think people will buy in? I will of course be the leader due to my good looks, charm, wit, and overall good judgment.
  14. But what's Boston's endgame here? Does it not seem like they are entering a rebuilding phase?
  15. They used to but they kept bringing all the boys to the yard
  16. It's hard to say. Are they rebuilding or what? They've given away some pretty big pieces lately. But then why would they want Byfuglien? They have some picks but their prospect pool seems weak, IMO. I'd love to get back one of their top 6 forwards like Marchand, Krejci or Eriksson. But would they trade those guys away? Not sure.
  17. My overall impression based on everything that's gone down is that something inappropriate happened between Kane and this girl, whether it was rape or some other sexual assault... who knows. But I also believe that Kane will never be convicted and pretty sure he will never even be charged. Really just an awful situation.
  18. Apparently the girl from that story is the friend of the accuser, not the accuser herself.
  19. Not sure why everyone is assuming the "tour" is Henoc or his agent's idea. I think they've both made it quite clear he's still looking for NFL opportunities. CFL teams really want Henoc so they are inviting him to their cities in order to impress him... it's not like Henoc and his agent are demanding these visits.
  20. Soooo.... it's game day. Anyone have any faith in the Bombers winning tonight? I'm going to say the special teams will be improved tonight and the defence will play lights out. Nichols protects the ball on offence. 22-10 Bombers.
  21. Politicians really shouldn't be saying anything bad about any race or culture. Not sure why some consider Jews fair game.
  22. They've been talking about it on 1290 as well. Some callers are indifferent but some are pretty pissed off. The pictures are out there on social media. It's definitely more obstructed than it used to be for some seats. It affects a pretty small number of fans I think. Unfortunately they weren't warned at all or given any options so I think that's what some people are upset about.
  23. It's like listening to a five year old trying to read. Painful.
  24. I'm watching the live stream of the french debate right now and Harper's translator is such bullshit! I don't know if he's supplied by Harper and the conservatives or by the CBC who is running the stream, but he can barely translate what Harper is saying while the rest have fluid speakers able to convey the passion of the person they are translating. Unbelievable!
