As a political move its a terrible move for him to vocally support it. Had he said that he would put 200 million into health care which 99% of people would be in favor it would of helped him with the swing votes. Instead he tries to satisfy a really small vocal minority which in the end will alienate him from many on the fence PC voters.

I see you have not read the other thread where Noeller said "Now say it with me" and then lectured someone.

Manitoba Politics
Nope accurate representation, the moment he said he would support searching the landfill the majority of NDPers on that site were saying he's blown it and immediately started talking about who can replace him. That would be losing it considering they had never spoken ill of him or even mentioned him being replaced. Lots of upset folks getting over emotional about what he said which indeed is the definition of losing it. Over time they will cool off up until he loses the election and then they will freak out again.

Former Bombers in NFL (and spring leagues) news
Absolutely hilarious and I had a good laugh at what you wrote here. I took a minute and I'm still debating if I'm now interacting with an incel or just someone who is just very odd. Either way yes it is normal for men to look at women and at times say they are attractive. I'm somewhat certain that physical beauty is still a thing in this world. Either way Chris Streveler is a handsome man and his girlfriend is also very attractive. They make a nice couple and hopefully he brings her back to Winnipeg once ZC hangs it up and Strevolution continues with the Blue Bombers.

I can almost (99%) guarantee that those workers don't see any tips. I remember reading about how several Tim Hortons in Vancouver were in trouble a few years back for hiring foreign workers, paying them below minimum wage, forcing them to use their pay to give the owner money for their workers permits and rent. Basically they took advantage of the foreign worker benefits that companies can use and made them slave labourers. In Canada!! It's insane, I'm in favour of no tipping and places paying a better wage. That being said when the South Park creators bought the real Casa Bonita and eliminated tips and gave everyone a $30 per hour wage the staff complained! https://www.mensjournal.com/news/south-park-creators-casa-bonita-labor-dispute

CFL - 2023 Regular Season - Discussion Thread
We also need to point out that he is playing behind the best o line with the best rb and best set of receivers in the league. I'd only get rid of ZC if he gets so banged up that he becomes a liability or a shell of his former self like the last season we had Khari or the last two years of Matt Nichols.

The PCs are laughing as over the last few weeks Wab has damaged his own self saying he will support searching the landfill and his plan with apprenticeships with trades people. The Winnipeg subreddit which is mostly diehard NDP'ers were losing it and are scared now that he has killed his chance and think that he'll get the boot if they lose. It will be an interesting election that's for sure. Sadly for the wrong reasons since every leader is a joke and in the end Manitoba loses no matter who wins.

I don't believe Subway has a mandatory tip, I have seen while on the road a few locations that requires you to click "other" to enter in a $0.00 tip which is shady AF. Ridiculous that they try to dupe people rather then paying employees a higher wage.

So I'd like to assume that once Jones is fired that no other team in the CFL would hire the guy ever again?

Restaurant/food thread
Went earlier in the summer and thought the place should have better signage since I wouldn't have a clue on what it had inside had I not googled nearest Ice cream store after going to Roxie's. Extremely limited candy selection and minimal ice cream selection, I wouldn't go back. If I were them I'd re-do the signage to make it clear that they have ice cream and candy and I'd load up on the misc candy similar to bulk barn. Had they the basics like gummies and swedish berries or various lolli's we would of bought a lot. The arcade was closed off when we went so I don't know what they have down in the basement.

Former Bombers in NFL (and spring leagues) news
- Friday Night from La Belle Province Takes on The Gap
Even if the Riders fire Dickie during the off season... who are they going to get to replace him? I don't think a guy like Pierce would want to enter in such a terrible situation. Do they bring back LaPo for another run?- Former Bombers in NFL (and spring leagues) news
So finding a woman attractive equals thinking they are an object? Say it with me now: Your thought process is not of a normal male.- Week 10 - Blue Bombers (6-2) @ LOLks (0-8) - GDT
100% , folks need to cool the jets on him for now. Hopefully this continues but I do remember him in this pre season struggling to make basic plays against 3rd string CFL'ers. But then again as I said to JuranBoldenRules .... Crum destroyed the Bombers in only a quarter so in the CFL game who knows what anything means these days.- Week 10 - Blue Bombers (6-2) @ LOLks (0-8) - GDT
Are you suggesting that the level of talent on the field during a CFL game surpasses the level of talent in an NFL pre season game? The answer is no. If you want me to find a game where a back up came back from a large deficit.... Crum coming back from a 19 point deficit in the 4th quarter against the Bombers in the CFL this year. The guy is playing with a lot of sub par talent against the premiere defense of the league and made it look easy. Crum also sucks massively and had one good night where the stars aligned and I'd never want him to be on our team. Brown I hope and am sure is nothing like Crum, but before annointing him as better then a Bomber legend, maybe pump the brakes and don't set his bar as of today as an elite player just yet.- Week 10 - Blue Bombers (6-2) @ LOLks (0-8) - GDT
I know his actual game playing time was limited, but during his 2022 pre season dream run and the limited times he's seen the field he was primarily passing. The NFL doesn't bring up guys strictly to run sneaks and trick plays. Strev has all the physical tools and 5 years ago he was able to get on the field and make quick decisions and place balls in areas where only the receivers could catch while in stride. I would only imagine hes improved with top tier training so he'd be even better then what we saw back in the day. I also wouldn't say "never" put up a game like this, I'm pretty sure a Grey Cup winning QB who has gone to the NFL for 3- 4 years can come back and put up a great game. We've seen flash in the pan QB's in this league put up big numbers with far inferior talent surrounding them and also not playing against the worst team possibly in CFL history. I hope Brown keeps it up because last season he did show well and I was somewhat worried since he looked bad in this years pre season. I'm also hoping that he doesn't show too well and Edmonton or Ottawa do not offer him a massive contract to start for them whenver his contract is up. It would be nice to have a future plan at QB who can take over once ZC calls it quits (assuming that Strev doesn't come back to the CFL).- Week 10 - Blue Bombers (6-2) @ LOLks (0-8) - GDT
Leagues better then a guy who stuck in the NFL for a few years despite having the unfortunate experience of running lame trick plays that LaPo saddled him with? Strev could always pass, it was only when LaPo decided to overthink and create Mike Kelly like plays around him that he ended up regressing slightly in his 2nd season with us.- Week 10 - Blue Bombers (6-2) @ LOLks (0-8) - GDT
So based on the glowing reviews I've read on here about Brown, will this finally put a stop on people talking about losing Piggy to Ottawa?- Week 10 - Blue Bombers (6-2) @ LOLks (0-8) - GDT

VAJ will need to learn the amazing spin move from FAJ.- Khari Dyce's @ Gappers: Sunday Night Football
They don't have a QB who can do short yardage. I agree with whoever said Pigromes just moves upright, he doesn't go low and dig in.- Khari Dyce's @ Gappers: Sunday Night Football
That's really unfortunate, but Ottawa h as only themselves to blame for not doing that earlier FG.- Khari Dyce's @ Gappers: Sunday Night Football
