  1. Tsn says zero shots......I Thought the jets got one shot on goal! tsn against the jets!
  2. I will add, that being a senior, I have been following this war with the people who want for profit healthcare, for most of my adult life. It will never end. in the past much of the opposition came from the public, Doctors, nurses, and citizens, including Tommy Douglas daughter, Shirley Douglas, who had to go on a major pr campaign to fight off these efforts to destroy our healthcare system. Thats fine, but it would also be very welcome to see a firm stand by the Liberals and NDP on this. We shouldnt have to depend on people taking much time out of their lives to do the elected peoples' job.
  3. This was easy: "The Canada Health Transfer is the money the federal government sends to the provinces and territories to help pay for health care, which is a provincial responsibility. Ottawa can use the CHT to enforce the Canada Health Act, although, in practice, it rarely does. The transfer can be clawed back if a province fails to uphold any of the act's five principles: universality, comprehensiveness, portability, accessibility and public administration." But as you said... Conservatives dont want to privatise healthcare, even though the minster oF health, ontario, just said, they want to privatise healthcare. If sticking up for our universal healthcare system is "boneheaded", I'm a flying elephant.
  4. My recollection of Meyers is that he could play very well...... he completely shut down Ovi once in wpg... I dont remember games much, but I remember that one, but had breakdowns, in his own end, giving up the puck more than you would like. was it stewart? from those days, that regularly kind of cross checked and beat up opponents? Think that was the guy. Might be good to see it bit more rough stuff from our d. Didnt know huddy had been here 11 years. Nice run for him. five time nhl champ counts for a lot. Need the jets to stay in the race to keep my thoughts away from ukraine devastation.
  5. If there is a way to do it.... the Federal government should stop Ford/Conservative effort to divert public money into private hospitals. And other attempts to get two tier healthcare.
  6. 22 teams allow less shots against per game, than the jets. why is their defence so bad?
  7. Maybe petraeus should shut up. well known glory seeking jerk, who wanted to be president.
  8. Very funny, and sometimes suspenseful, comedy horror, on tubi.... new zealand movie. housebound.... highly rated, by sir Peter Jackson https://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/housebound
  9. Who knows.... they either dont want to get in there and protect the goalie or they are not told to do it. ( doubt it ) big is not it.... although in buff's prime, opponents forwards were definitely playing differently, when he was on the ice. Never going to see another player like him on the jets. now..... zero respect shown by opponents in the jets end. but duncan keith isnt big. Dont think he played like these guys. Much of the team seems to play with their head up their ass.... then light goes on for a few minutes. no cut contracts. . Not many of of these guys are playing for a job. What coach can get a top forward to play d if he doesnt want to? Players get more money, more adulation, are harder to replace than a coach. cant be fired. = Problem. fans paying what they pay to see the team at the rink, must be right pissed off when they see the kind of b.s. the players pull off. The fact that maurice just gave up, has to tellyou something about the attitude of at least some of players.
  10. "For whatever reason"
  11. Season on the line tie game, minutes left in game d takes two penalties Complete , utter, Trash d
  12. Four shot on goal by jets. tv showed a replay, marchand fighting for the puck, jets end, right by the goal, aNother bruin player standing right beside the crease..... jet player right beside him, just watching. Jet guy didnt even move. Bruin guy got a pass, had a clean shot from one foot away, whiffed. How can an nhl level player be that faccking useless? Completely Worthless defence.
  13. Reddit bruins is pretty humorous. jets reddit is kind of serious.
  14. Sometimes something happens, and things are changed unexpectedly, and very rapidly. current example..... rapid, massive Response to the putin invasion. Who honestly thought this would happen. Not me. the transition would be well underway, but fossil fuel is fighting it every way it can. eg: Texas law now in effect: "Essentially, the bill said the state of Texas cannot do business with financial groups that divest from fossil fuels. Issac says the goal is to get these banks and investment firms to change their policies. He calls it "a responsible way to push back that says, 'Look, if you're going to be anti-Texas, then you're not going to get to do business with Texas.'" The bill was signed into law last year. Now the Texas comptroller's office is creating a list of companies that could face a state boycott. On Wednesday, Comptroller Glenn Hegar sent a letter to 19 financial companies asking for a list of any mutual funds or exchange-traded funds in their portfolios that "prohibit or limit investment in fossil fuels." He said another round of letters will go out soon to 100 other companies, and any that fails to respond within 60 days "will be presumed to be boycotting energy companies." "free market" 😂
  15. Saw this, then read the wikipedia page for it. Sixties John Birch is main stream republican now. Founded by Fred Koch. The Koch family, and the Murdochs.
  16. What about coach? Keep lowery? I hope huddy goes....they have gone through a lot of players. Defence still isnt very good.
  17. Internal combustion engines are extremely inefficient compared to electric. Using Ice....its like going to a restaurant, ordering a meal, and throwing 2/3 of it in the trash, eating 1/3. Oilco got to love that. When you spend 100 dollars to fill your tank, maybe 30.00 of your cash propels your car. The rest... heat, and smoke. (Greenhouse gases, and many other toxic substances, which are a big public health problem) any argument about which is better is preposterous. and as far as this being the only environemtal issue discussed..... It is the mother of all issues... And is the only thing, staring us right in the face, (aside from nuclear war) which if not checked, will completely change the world, permanently, (as far as humanity is concerned) and definitely not... for the better. surprising number of people here who dont understand this. It has been explained, in ways anyone can understand, many times.
  18. Uniforms reminded me of the sixties rangers uniform. Kyle connor stop turn go is fun to watch. What do other top forwards do? (I dont watch other games,and do not know) does crosby backcheck, did toews? Ovechkin? Wheeler expanded on his remarks, after game, and I cant paste it here. basically a nice apology to the fans.
  19. What a ridiculous slashing penalty on pionk ten minutes ago colour guy kind of dumped on lowery lol
  20. Need More jets goals
  21. He is always sour when Ive seen him being interviewed.
  22. Need more goals 6 -1
  23. Huh? oil and gas doesnt involve pollution now? this is pretty silly. Anyway, sure go ahead and post about plastic, or mining, or any pollution you are want . anyway on to the jets game.
  24. Lol that is a good one. plasticseurope says "Plastics are derived from natural, organic materials such as cellulose, coal, natural gas, salt and, of course, crude oil. The production of plastics begins with the distillation of crude oil in an oil refinery. ....... One of these fractions, naphtha, is the crucial compound for the production of plastics." so ... sure lets talk about plastics.
