Anyone else at least mildly entertained by the childish meltdowns of Murphy Brownshirt et al. on the conservative side in response to this agreement between the LPC and NDP? And true to form. she recklessly intentionally uses words dogwhistles like socialist and leftist in her vitriolic rhetoric.

Well deserved. Congrats, Paddy!

Trade deadline thread.
This comment seems like an oversimplification. Trouba, Myers, and Chiarot also left during the 2019 off-season and suitable replacements for losing 2/3 of the blue line have yet to materialize. Pionk has been the only standout in that regard, IMO. DeMelo, Dillon, and Schmidt have been alright but those additions when combined with the system in place have failed to address ongoing and glaring defensive issues with this team. I agree it's probably a combination of player personnel and coaching staff (system) that's led to the current state of the Jets. A new coaching staff with some fresh ideas should be the top priority going into the 2022-23 season.

Her comments on Tuesday were so thoughtless, and the fact that she took roughly two days to issue what seemed like a pretty generic and insensitive apology speaks to how out of touch she really is. What an embarrassment.- World Politics

I wouldn't be shocked if we're right back in the thick of another spike within the the next few weeks, to be honest. Easter Weekend could be compromised, IMO. I sincerely hope I'm way off but the last two years have my confidence all but shattered in the vast majority of our "leaders" in positions of power.- Restaurant/food thread
Personal faves nostalgia-wise are VJs, Super Boy's, The Burger Place, and Dairi-Wip. Contemporary faves are OGC, Rae's Bistro, and Junction 59. Not in Winnipeg but I gotta mention Nite Hawk Cafe out at West Hawk. The scene here in the city (and within the province) is simply awesome, with plenty of variety to suit almost any preference as far as burgers go.- World Politics
