    Big 2 points for the Riders that will come in handy later on. Proline paid the over for those that follow along. Mario Alford, Thomas Bertrand - Hudon, Sam Emilus, Keeshawn Johnson all looked good. Harris threw for 277 and lives to play another game. Unfortunate for Bertrand-Hudon his best run...

    Seems to me the Riders will have their hands full with Ottawa Thursday night despite being 3.5 point favorites. Redblacks have a solid lineup on both sides. If Adarious Pickett is back up to speed he will give the Rider O line fits. I don't see the Riders running the ball too much. Hoping smoke...

    Mark Carney (Trudeau Liberal Replacement) as PM

    https://ca.finance.yahoo.com/news/carney-canadian-premiers-bid-speed-163327845.html Part of the problem with fast tracking large infrastructure projects is the lack of control that goes along with it. Everything is cost + and everybody knows it. It actually works better for the contractor if...

    Anthropic’s new AI model threatened to reveal engineer’s affair to avoid being shut down

    I see Humanoids being offered by few different companies all mostly based close to where the parts are being manufactured. I have visions of one cutting my grass. Same price as a car ($35,000)

    Well, today is the Liberal/NDP Non-Coalition Coalition Budget Day!

    Good evasive maneuver by Carney to have King Charles read the throne speech.

    Canada Post Strike

    "Mail delivery is an essential service, especially for people who live in rural communities. But Canada Post is facing a worsening financial crisis. As a result, mail service is costing more but becoming less dependable. For all those reasons, postal workers risk destroying the last shred of the...

    Canada Post Strike

    $315 million loss per quarter does not sound good but given annual revenue of more than $10 billion it is not that big of a number and probably could be wiped out by most accountants. Of course they can be more efficient but the real problem is the bloated bureaucracy that won't cut their role...

    Kind of hearing Jarius Jackson may not be in Winnipeg where he was hired to help the new OC which qualifies as regular Bomber subterfuge picking up right where they left off last year whining about losing another Grey Cup.. Also thinking letting Shea Patterson go was playbook related and...

    Victoria Day

    Classic kickoff to the camping season this weekend with overnight temperatures hitting -3. Makes me laugh to think of those that would have ended up sleeping in their vehicle with the heater on. Rain in our area will kill any enthusiasm for staying another day. And not the first time this has...

    Electric shock: A new study found that EVs were more expensive to fuel than gas-powered cars at the end of 2022

    There is a lot of upside yet to come in the field of medicinal cannabis. Speaking of which I would like to try growing some of my own again this year and would appreciate advice on what seeds to plant. Last years never surfaced and the year before was a write off as well.

    Perhaps the only beneficiary were the banks who finally cracked the market for their credit card empire and remind everyone again that the banks are Canadian in name only.

    "We (being Mark Carney, speaking of himself as plural) expect that in the coming years, we will continue to increase that funding until it can be compared to that provided by other public broadcasters." (???) Setting themselves up for comparison to the BBC.
