  1. 'Fool me once, shame on...shame on you. Fool me... you can't get fooled again'
  2. Pallister actually asked this same question to reporters at the start of the pandemic. I/we are not elected officials with experts and behind-the-scenes information at our fingertips. It's not my/our job to come up with a better plan, it's up to Pallister and his party. If I could do one thing today I would do what 'Health Minister' (a term that should be used loosely at this point) Heather Stefanson claims we can already do: expand Manioba's ICU capacity to 170. Unfortunately, wishing into one hand and shitting into the other usually just results in ****. I don't expect to see this happen any time soon. If I could do one thing yesterday, it would be to not close 3 emergency rooms and cut ICU beds year over year. Winnipeg had 73 ICU beds in January 2017. By January 2020, following the closures of the Victoria and Concordia ICU's we were down to 62 and, following the closure of Seven Oaks ICU, we were left with 55. Bet they'd be coming in handy right about now. But MOBF, that was a month before Europe had freezer trucks full of corpses, how could they have known??? Well.... doctors warned them against closing ICU's all the way back in July 2019, before COVID was even a twinkle in a bats eye.... and they ignored the advice of doctors. Here we are as a result. https://wfpquantum.s3.amazonaws.com/pdf/2020/95566_Health system files july 2019.pdf ISSUE 1: The proposed ICU bed base will be inadequate to serve the critical care needs of Manitoba patients.This will result in significant negative consequences to both patients and our health care system. RECOMMENDATION: Critical Care bed numbers must be increased ICU bed use is difficult to predict and plan, since admissions are never elective. In this situation, average occupancy data is almost always inadequate for resource planning.1Using historical daily census data, we found that in order to meet the needs of critically ill patients 95% of the time (i.e.go over-census 1-2 times per month) we would require 67-68 beds. At the end of Phase 3 of consolidation we will have 63 beds (MICU19, SICU 14, ICMS 14, Grace 10, IICU 6). The proposed ICU bed base will be inadequate to serve the critical care needs of Manitoba patients, and will result in significant negative consequences to both patients and our health care system. They were warned and they ignored the advice of the experts they claim to hold so dear. This was always about cutting costs. Our lives are just not that valuable to our so-called leaders.
  3. "We'll trust the advice of our healthcare leadership" "We place our faith in expert epidemiologists" "We appreciate our healthcare workers and all they do every step of the way" Except when they write and sign letters warning of the exact situation we find ourselves in now... ICU's overflowing into neighboring provinces with no actual end in sight. "I never promised Manitoban's that we wouldn't go down this path. Manitoban's have always been in control of their future. I've said so all along" If only there was some sort of powerful or influential entity that could govern, legislate, and enforce public health orders... like some sort of governing group... maybe we could call it a 'government'
  4. The Premier and I agree on one thing: Chris Sky is an idiot
  5. https://winnipeg.ctvnews.ca/new-public-health-measures-coming-to-manitoba-ahead-of-long-weekend-1.5436103 Pallister is answering questions live rn "Answering questions" may be generous
  6. This criticism would be non-existent if 45 was still in power, I imagine. I'm sure they want to frame this as the Biden admin being complicit, not the ones that came before (going all the way back to 1948)
  7. 68 hits, 19 blocks, 60% FO.... keep that s**t up
  8. No you were just disillusioned, hopefully this effort helps redeem the team in your eyes. There's still room on the wagon
  9. 'Above average goaltending'
  10. Stanley!!! What a cannon blast
  11. Just stick it in me
  12. I'm here to predict doom but ride the wave if we win, am I doing it right?
  13. Once I cleared the whopping 105 GB of space it required I found it is very polished and much improved. It's been a while since I played ME1 on the 360, but I remember it being pretty rough to play (despite being one of my all-time favorites). No regrets paying sticker price for this slick new version
  14. Let's see... there is a chosen one destined to save the world by sacrificing their life... there is a resurrection... numerous references to Cerberus and Lazarus... if it wasn't for all the alien lesbian sex it could probably pass for biblical, if not Catholic
  15. Mass Effect Legendary Edition just came out. I resent this beautiful day for forcing me outdoors.
  16. I bet he thought twice about trying that again. Some people earn their ass-kickings fair and square.
  17. I'll add it's disgusting that these guys are able to keep up their sick games for years... horrible that this trash gets recycled... I find it hard to believe that these guys don't generate some sort of reputation... that there aren't warning signs or red flags or whispers that follow these pricks from job to job... too many people must be turning a blind eye.... for every Sandusky there must be a Paterno or two.
  18. "The lawsuit alleges that in May 2010, the coach “turned on porn and began to masturbate in front of” the Blackhawks player without the player’s consent." - This does not sound like he was watching porn with the video coach, more like he was subjected to porn by the video coach. "The lawsuit also described “inappropriate text messages” from the coach to the player and threats to “physically, financially and emotionally” harm the player if he “did not engage in sexual activity” with the coach." - This, to me, is a bit of a smoking gun... the player has evidence the coach is pursuing an unwanted sexual relationship... the player (maybe an 18 or 19 year old kid?) must have genuinely believed this guy could hurt their career if they came forward or didn't comply. There are any number of reasons victims don't come forward (be it shame and embarrassment, guilt, fear of reprisal, so on...) My best advice is if a guy ever starts to CK his Louie infront of you, ask him to stop or get up and leave before punching his lights out - less likelihood of facing charges or being touched by an unwanted willy that way
  19. Sitting here awaiting my shot at the Notre Dame popup right now. It's like waiting for Christmas morning to begin. Exciting And just like that I have super powers. Tremble before me.
  20. Pionk was hustling like mad all night. Good game from everyone.
  21. Saw this earlier today and thought it was hilarious. Perfect. How does Office Space only get better with time?
  22. https://winnipeg.ctvnews.ca/province-lowers-covid-19-vaccine-age-eligibility-1.5419766 WINNIPEG -- Provincial health officials have lowered the age of eligibility again for COVID-19 vaccines, after dropping the age to 40 on Friday. All Manitobans, aged 35 and older, can now receive a COVID-19 vaccination. For First Nations the age eligibility remains at 18-years-old and up. Appointments booked for the wife and myself. Such a relief this is actually happening.
  23. I must have misunderstood. I thought you implied that the feds, provinces, and their doctors (lackeys) knew the vaccine was less effective than they claimed, yet lied to us. My mistake.
  24. If it was only Canada that said the Pfizer vaccine was more effective than the results of this test indicate maybe you'd be on to something. But since it was the whole world, well, you overestimate Trudeaus global influence I think, sheesh
