    So let's talk about seniors care facilities.... they're locked down tighter than a drum... yet they still have maintenance contractors going in regularly... like why? Put that **** off if it isn't critical. I had to go into a place recently for some work that really wasn't critical and yes they have a questionnaire to fill out every day but really, nothing stops people from lying on them. Just seems entirely too risky given the risk factors for the residents.

    But I thought it was a liberal hoax? And didn't his bigly response beat this thing? I've read that they figure his rapid test came back positive and they're waiting for the longer one before saying anything more.

    There are not enough people in Sweden contracted the disease to garner herd immunity. Look for other explanations as to why the rates dropped please and thank you. Unless you can show that the percentage is actually high enough to confer herd immunity.

    I had a lazy weekend at home last weekend and watched a few bomber games from last year and I got hit with the reality of not having had the opportunity to watch fall football for real. Just sucks.

    The CFL needs to stop trying to charge premium prices for their product. I'm a huge CFL fan and I'll pay a lot more than most people to see games but cripes at least in Calgary they are pricing themselves out of being an affordable family outing unless you want the crappiest seat in the house.

    Wallace tried his best to keep order but Trump would not shut up. He really needed a mute button to turn off Trumps mic because that's the only way to get him to shut up.

    Well diversity is strength is low hanging fruit given what's been going on in the States... and talking to fans.. sorry but what does that accomplish? I talk to fans every day on sites like these and they're morons.

    yeah his idea of a debate is be louder and repeat lies often enough that people just start believing it. I mean christ he was finally pushed into a debate when it was brought up comments from experts from his own government agencies were directly contradicting what he claimed and his response was "well I disagree with that" Like that's not how a debate work! You don't get to say the experts say this and then say no they're wrong when you are shown that the experts are in fact saying something totally opposite. I fear for americans based on that debate because despite Trump not saying much what he did say was terrifying. Talking about protests he basically said "let me go in and end it quickly" aka use force to suppress protests. More "law and order" which just more jailing people and police brutality. Total authoritarian. Talking about the economy all he cares about still are tax cuts for the rich which is horrible so keep making the citizens wage slaves. Keep dividing the country... Just really sad that so many people buy his **** when it is so obviously out to lunch.

    I'm not sure I can get on board with that... unless not falling flat on your face right out of the gate is considering great...

    So basically what you had was Trump trying to hammer away on the same talking points he brings up every time he speaks and going with his tactic of just shouting over everyone and not letting anyone else speak. Attempt to drown out everything but your own message. Typical Trump stuff but it was particularly egregious in the parts I watched last night. Biden needs to prepare for these more. He tried to discuss facts but you can't do that when Trump is just going to yell over everything you say, he didn't have the material to put him in his place and clearly didn't want to come across as an angry old man getting angry at the interruptions. Basically the people who support Trump are going to think he was strong and owned the debate despite being a lunatic talking about lies and no policy at all. For me Biden was the more capable debater despite some stumbles over words and brought up some good points however he was ill prepared for the circus that we all knew Trump was going to bring. For me the strategy is hammer on points Trump is weak to and not let him control the messaging. He touched a nerve a couple times with comments about him lying all the time and especially when Trumps lack of paying taxes came up however he never stuck to it and really got Trump off his tracks. So yeah given the very low bar set for Trump he basically "won" because he didn't **** himself on stage.

    Fact checking donald trump... is he talking? Then he's 99% lying.

    oh no I'm not saying it's bad and the reasons for doing are basically that with cold season upon us there will be more symptoms so testing capacity will be challenged by that. Alberta did a lot of things right initially, but Jason kenney got bored with that and is going full regressive on it now. He thinks if the economy gets better people will stop hating him for all the other crap he is trying to do.

    you know what I wouldn't be surprised if there was a new commissioner sooner than later. The current guy leaves a lot to be desired.
  14. 17to85 replied to Rich's post in a topic in General Discussion
    what point is that? Here is the problem, speedflex made some claims, he was asked to back them up and then he and you got pissy about it. Open minded people don't react that way to being asked to prove their points. That is what closed minded people do because they don't want to risk being shown they are wrong.

    Unfortunately Alberta is going backwards on testing so all those early successes are not going to be held onto. Turn around times on results are getting longer, it's taking longer to get appointments and they are ending a lot of the asymptomatic testing.

    How about working on roster and team building for whenever the league starts back up? You stop doing that you are sunk when play does resume.
  17. 17to85 replied to Rich's post in a topic in General Discussion
    Talking about me or you? Cause I will tell you I am not in the minority and I am not the closed minded one. The closed minded people are the ones like you and speedflex who just cry when your opinions are challenged.

    The only person refusing a discussion is you. You were asked to put some thought into your claims and you ran away.
  19. 17to85 replied to Rich's post in a topic in General Discussion
    It's not bait, it's trying to get you to stop believing nonsense and start looking at facts. I mean you supported Jason kenney and his ucp and are now whining because they're doing what they said they would do. You are the poster boy for the older generation believing in feels over reals.

    Sources for all the bullies punks and thugs you claim are on both sides.
  21. 17to85 replied to Rich's post in a topic in General Discussion
    Cite some sources for that. The bullies punks and thugs are a vast vast vast majority on one side. This both sides crap is just enabling the **** heels.

    He isn't even a great liar. He just lies constantly. Honestly he is the kidnin school who is giving a book report on a book he hasn't read.

    No kidding, his supporters thought "no puppet! No puppet! You're the puppet!" Was a masterstroke. You can't help people that stupid.
