    How many lunatics like you are there? I don't want to be up @ 6!

    CFL

    No crossover team has ever won the Final. Winnipeg is only the second one to have won the semi-final. Think it was 2017 when the Roughriders beat Ottawa to face Toronto in the final. They lost. Toronto went on that year to beat a heavily favoured Calgary in the Grey Cup.

    I was at the Eastern semi-final and all I have to say is when you receive a punt leading the game.by 5 with 1:45 left, you have ONE JOB: maintain possession of the ball. Fuck Winnipeg. Go Mount Royal. And more importantly, Go Riders.

    We're about to set clocks back, but why hasn't Nova Scotia adopted a permanent daylight saving time?

    I almost missed it myself. But as a 4 year old, I have no recollection of it. The mismash is sort of like how Indiana was until fairly recently. The Eastern and Central timezones split Indiana in half. And the state in it's infinite wisdom had left the choice of DST to the individual counties...

    We're about to set clocks back, but why hasn't Nova Scotia adopted a permanent daylight saving time?

    According to my dad (he has lived in SK all his life but is not always the most reliable source of information -- although he has answers to everything) the actual boundary between Mountain Time & Central time runs right down the centre of the province. If you are east of that line you are...

    We're about to set clocks back, but why hasn't Nova Scotia adopted a permanent daylight saving time?

    The change they made does not kick in until Sunday. Today would have been DST with or without the legislation. As of Monday, I get off work to complete blackness. 4.5 months of gloom.

    I hate standard time. I hope this year is our last fall back.

    Toronto votes: What you need to know for municipal election

    Your CC title says Council Member. All that without the bullshit. I admire your tolerance to be able to run for council. I would not have the patience to not tell the idiots I was pandering too how stupid they were.

    Northwestern Ontario awaits Queen’s Park decision on permanent daylight time

    Why do you want to start before 9? But if you do, the construction project across from me uses big lights to work before the sun comes up and after it goes down.

    Mark Carney (Trudeau Liberal Replacement) as PM

    Yes, that is the argument for proportional representation.

    Canada 51st State

    That seems wrong. I also think there is a clause that has min number of MPs of any province being 4 (PEI).

    Canada 51st State

    I would just prefer that Quebec no longer gets those considerations rather than extending considerations to the other 9 provinces.

    Mark Carney (Trudeau Liberal Replacement) as PM

    I was looking at the polls that turned popular vote into seat projections based upon location of those polled. At one point PP had a massive projected majority and that was like 4 months prior to the election. It is to this collapse I refer not the perceived imbalance of western voters.

    Mark Carney (Trudeau Liberal Replacement) as PM

    The minute he was out-manovered by Carney last election he was toast. One the all time defeats of Canadian politics (if you believe the polls).

    Mark Carney (Trudeau Liberal Replacement) as PM

    You know that that won't happen. He will get a bigger majority and then we will be screwed. Right now the fact he is so close to minority is the only thing keeping him honest. Also PP is never going to get enough support to be PM. Once he is replaced, then it will be time for an election.

    Army: 12 dead in 31 wounded shooting attacks at Fort Hood base in Texas

    I am not sure I agree with that but thanks for clarifying. I guess this would not have been a possibility if they live streamed all executions because then you could say you are not discriminating. I am no longer a proponent of the death penalty but if you are going to do it, it should be done...

    Army: 12 dead in 31 wounded shooting attacks at Fort Hood base in Texas

    Politicians sometimes confuse right and wrong by which is ahead in the polls. Given that several Muslim states do televise their executions I don't follow the second part of your post.
