    U.S. Senate approves bill to make daylight saving time permanent

    I was just guessing above, but here’s the scoop: The Canadian government introduced daylight saving time in 1918 as a measure for increasing production during the First World War. Similar legislation had been passed in Germany and Britain. The idea was that during months when the sun stays...

    U.S. Senate approves bill to make daylight saving time permanent

    I thought it was one of those temporary war effort things like income tax that was needed at the time it was gonna go away as soon as we were done with it….80 or 100 years ago or something like that….Let’s all get up before those lazy Germans or Japanese or pick your flavour of out of date...

    U.S. Senate approves bill to make daylight saving time permanent

    As a child this was just an annoyance with respect to the TV schedule when people actually used a TV guide and watched TV shows on networks on the television… As an adult conducting business over multiple jurisdictions, it is beyond a pain in the arse.

    U.S. Senate approves bill to make daylight saving time permanent

    I’m just glad that the rest of North America is ready to shit or get off the pot, Because this is awkward doing business with the rest of the continent when they flip around time zones & we in Saskatchewan don’t: “So are we the same time as MB or AB this week?” “Is Vancouver 1 hour or 2 hours...

    Omnibus Russia Ukraine crisis

    You called this one a week or two back. I’ve neither the time nor patience to hunt down the quote but I recall it Pete. Definitely sounds like a purge coming inside Russian borders: http://apple.news/AM8qQuf5FSWeMwXWjKXi3sQ Vladimir Putin warned he would cleanse Russia of the “scum and traitors”...

    U.S. Senate approves bill to make daylight saving time permanent

    No idea, but being in a jurisdiction that does not utilize daylight savings time and has not for many decades…. And trying to do business across North America with all the time zones change around you without yours changing is a royal pain in the arse. All I can say is “Thank God!” & “It’s...

    Is True Dope Still Worse Than Putin?

    Wow, ok. I just thought Harper was an intelligent introvert accountant and still managed to be a decent leader. So….are you saying Harper like Rasputin was packing a foot long dick? You’d think that would’ve made him more of an extrovert?? To each their own though….

    Russia bars entry to PM Trudeau 😣

    Well, this is ironic. Putin is pulling a Liberal Party on Trudeau & all like they’re a Trucker Convoy or something. Vlad hasn’t called them misogynistic racist white supremacists yet has he (?) ‘cuz that would be the Cherie on the Sunday & I don’t speak or read whatever Russians use for a...

    Omnibus: Conservative Leadership Race

    He’s so out’a touch that he’s a goofy sound bite at this point. Real people are still trying to get to work and pay their bills and feed their families. The “Let them eat Cake!” Crowd is (or should be) an international embarrassment. The fact that we both know that this jerk off has taken that...

    Not in this case from the sounds of things: The vehicle was also impounded for 30 days, and the driver was ticketed for a red-light violation. Addison said police are unable to confirm any names because no criminal charges have been laid.

    Trucker Blockade Caused Lasting Psychological Damage to Canadians

    Oh God. And in all honesty I wasn’t saying that you supported anything. I was trying to point out the Hypocrisy of our current government. That’s it!! That was before we went out for supper at a relatives place and we’re just home now and I’m just looking at this before I jump in the shower...
