I'm good with Netflix having it in Canada. I travel quite a bit for my side job so this means that I'll be able to watch it repeatedly when I'm on the road!

Canadian Politics
To me, this sums up the final years of the Harper Government. Say what you like about his early years, but toward the end...this was his legacy, and it doesn't seem surprising. And that's the thanks these former MPs get from Harper? That's bad. Might be that a few of these ex-MP's might actually throw off the muzzle and speak their minds on the election results and the direction the party is headed. Harper is a control freak beyond compare and he probably doesn't want dissenting viewpoints voiced less the party divides back into it's original fragments of PC's and Reformers. Why he would even give a **** at this point is anyone's guess as he has basically left the party bereft of any legitimate successors. Stephen Fletcher was pretty outspoken about the campaign strategy after the election. I'm guessing he's not the only one.

The frequent use of omnibus bills (there have been 8 or 9 since 2011?) was probably my biggest issue with the Harper government, especially since he was so against them as a member of the opposition. I very much dislike huge bills that use, in his words, the "kitchen sink approach" to combine completely unrelated issues together.

Edmonton Oilers LOL (perhaps Calgary Flames LOL)
They were 15-0-2 against Detroit going back to 2009 so that was a good win for them. McDavid's game winner was beautiful & Yakupov looks so much better (and happier!) so far this season. 10 points in 3 games between the 2 of them now.

Royal Blues on Saturday
Just being a good team player, trying to stay positive. I wouldn't have expected anything less from one of our guys, especially Vega.

Royal Blues on Saturday
At least they didn't stick a tramp stamp on those things, like they did to the Riders. That's about the only somewhat positive thing I can say about them.

In case anyone arguing with TUP hasn't figured this out yet... this will go on forever. This is his internet forum style, and has been for years. It's probably better for everyone involved to just agree to disagree and move on.

Dr. Kellie Leitch (who was born in Winnipeg)? I saw her getting asked the leadership question (not sure which station) which she avoided.

Grey Cup Ticket Sales
I don't think they are getting anything from the team. Someone had an article last week (I can't remember who at this point) & they asked Miller about it. All Miller said was ticket sales were heading in the right direction.

Bombers Add/Drop
I've got no problem with the quick looks. It's like a mini-camp or the free agent tryouts they put on. If they don't show something, you don't waste a spot or time on them & move on to the next guy.

Election 2015
Not really much spin. In the province the NDP number of seats didn't go down, but the conservatives did. What he is neglecting of course is the the cons went down because Manitobans wanted change and still do. That doesn't help the NDP nor hurt the provincial Cons. If anything it should bolster the provincial Liberals. Unfortunately (or fortunately depending on who you ask) they are so disorganized that they likely won't be able to do anything about it. Actual con votes didn't drop a ton. If he thinks the liberal vote is somehow indicative of a turn away from provincial PC's he's kidding himself. But he knows. That's why its spin. He's sunk. And this result was bad for him. I don't think there was any possible result in that election that changes the fact that he's sunk. The only way the NDP stays in power provincially is if Pallister and the PC's have a huge implosion some how. It's their election to lose at this point and the popularity of the NDP is so low that Pallister could go around slapping babies and still win.

Edmonton Oilers LOL (perhaps Calgary Flames LOL)
Would progress for the Jets be not getting swept if they make the playoffs? PS, the Oilers don't consistently finish last, it's only happened once in the last 5 years. Not that I'm arguing they don't finish nearly last a lot lately... it's just not every year!
