As opposed to stopping this pandemic being reason enough?

Their secondary? Oh my stars.

You know those Saturdays where they have 3 games back to back to back? I would love one of those right about now.

Tell em to go pound sand if they don't want to play. Don't **** the rest of us over. They can't get fans in the stands anyway so what's the difference?

I approve of the sentiment but you can't do that. Medical care is one of those basic things and we have to save even stupid people. However denying them the frivolous fun things because they're too stupid to protect everyone and themselves, that's totally fine.

I had read that covid was an oddball in that it can spread before symptoms appear so it wasn't necessarily getting less deadly as it mutated. Guess we will just have to see what happens.

See the corporations pay for democratic senators too, the establishment democrats can't go against their masters so we get this game of trying to appear bipartisan. It's all about the corporate greed.

I think you will find that there would be resistance to doing away with the Indian act from natives themselves. Fear of getting less. Plus you would need to get a whole hell of a lot of bands to agree which would be a nightmare I think. The situation is ****** beyond belief and I truly believe that solutions have to come from within because there is no way in hell the federal government is fixing this mess.

And yet I know who your long term friends are.....

I am just a fan of being technically correct. The best kind of correct.

Ctv and tsn are one and the same so no point in even discussing a difference there. Sportsnet I think is regretting spending like drunken sailors on the nhl and cbc doesn't want to spend much money on sports. The situation in Canada is not great for getting a big TV deal in my opinion.

Well not exactly... not like it's permanent sterilization. Violating peoples autonomy certainly but there is a difference.

The residential school clusterfuck is a big reason for a lot of the problems on reserves now too. You rip families apart and it's no wonder the kids don't know how to be normal and that gets passed down the line. It really is shameful.

which is a shame cause the chinese one is pretty underwhelming compared to the other.

Sadly I don't think you can pin this one on just religion. The government is just as guilty. Reality is that this was all about assimilation.

I can definitively say that Alberta would have been better off with Rachel.

You know why they say that right? It's because that is the length of time they studied. For liability purposes they will only ever talk about their own studies.

Yeehawwwwwww! New event at stampede this year, Covid wrangling. ******* kenney banking on vaccines big time. Seems like a more cautious approach would be the smart thing.

Then why did he have Rudy making an ass of himself left right and centre? Trump has the means to hire the best people, but he refuses to pay them so he doesn't actually hire the best people.

That hit us out here in Alberta a few weeks ago. It is very frustrating to know you have tried to to what's right but so many others don't and let this crap continue because they just have to have people over or constantly go out to restaurants. A little patience and we could have stayed home when cases were low and let vaccine rollout pick up and avoid a lot of crap, but no, people again thought it was over and set us back months.

Damn you! Beaten to the punch

You can't get fooled again.

That's because it was based on sound evidence. Vaccine manufacturers stuck to their recommendations purely for liability reasons. They didn't have test data themselves so would not commit to anything they didn't study. But people with a shallow understanding of things took that to mean those companies knew best and the government was making an uninformed decision.

However if less people are getting sick because they're vaccinated doesn't it stand to reason that we will see less tests and a higher positivity rate?
