  1. Judging by the reaction, yes. The degree to which they held that advantage is what started this whole process in earnest.
  2. Hmm....pretty sure they are happy to be able to unload a ticket . But curious how the one person buying a couple tickets is the funny one versus the idiot who spends a crapload more on seasons tickets isnt? Anyhow...Thanks, that makes the case for canada's team. All else pales in comparison. Sales, revenue,TV ratings,merchandise,
  3. Actually in Finland it is used for some criminal activity. Minor crimes mind you.
  4. bubber, dont take it literally.
  5. Ive never seen so much for support for something the average Canuck has no real clue about. It really is amazing. And considering where the bill came from, the statistics behind it ignored due to such low numbers who do it, it definitely was made up on the fly by our PM . Amazing how that works !
  6. ...ergo Canada's Team. Caveat, until a team makes a run in the playoffs (Calgary way back,Van a few yrs ago, Sens almost a decade ago) the Leafs remain that. When said playoff run is over ,revert back to form.
  7. Back in January of 2014 , on the very first page, clear instructions were given to improve the forum. Subsequent pages came after the fact reiterating the same thing. January of 2014. ....that would be 15 months ago. March 16th, 2015 and we are told that if clear intructions (are?) were given, they would be followed. Wonder how that works? So WCR , best to check back at the end of May 2016 and perhaps something might be done. But lets be honest , not a damn chance of it.
  8. Evidence? 62 pages of it. Love and or hate them , everyone has an opinion on them . Any other team fill anothers rink night after night? Any other team return the numbers to charge advertisers the amount they do?
  9. When the game is set up, its all about the ratings in order to pay the bills. Not that they did themselves any favours but the scheduler does not have a crystal ball.
  10. No debtors prisons do not exist. And the same happens to a poor person here. They pay in in installments or some other arrangement.
  11. Perhaps 'arms length transactions' will be the factor in trying them. That could come about from the travel agency demanmds placed on the union workers...aka cops.
  12. If you think education is hard, try being stupid. Appears you have managed, barely.
  13. Come on argus, you have no evidence that was the case.(husbands) And so is no 'alter girls', no priests being women, and yet....somehow we managa. And yet, they do feel a nice breeze when they want. They have friends. Downtown yesterday, Dundas Sq , plenty of girls wearing the scarf with friends absent of scarf. It would appear then that they do just fine and accpet their choice, as did their friends.
  14. By being out there and interviewed. Yes well, you didnt pay for it so no worries.
  15. But theres always one in a crowd who stoop to pretty low levels to try. It was an incredible dumb thing to say and anyone trying to make it better needs help.
  16. Why do you hate Halloween? Think of the fun kids and teens....and adults have. Spoil sport. Sure it is, but you'll never get smart enough to know when or where There ya go! Solved your own problem. Ah...to bad the evidence doesnt support your cockamamie ideas. Good one Cap'n Canada.
  17. No. But more importantly the why. Because they are all in Ukrained/Russia pretty much without free press nor the ability to see the truth because they are in the UkR/Rsa. The ones in that article are here, were free to participate in the survey and had no issues with being photographed. To ascribe your thoughts above would mean to me that these women were forced to answer this way, forced to aprticipate to this from the men who rule the roost, who I might add wouldnt go along with doing . They all express freedom on the subject . I dont think so for the same reason a woman wears a hat to Church, a Yarmulke is worn. For the same reason that if your neighbour/friend is having a problem (bsmt water/too old to shovel snow etc) you feel an obligation to assist, however you can say no. But in the words of the women they surveyed, does it make sense any of them would be there if they lived under that doctrine ? I say no.
  18. Ok, but lkets change that to only Orthodox ones as it would appear. Fair point when taken to the max, my only caveat is there are tenents of Islam that are not likeable apart from the uber orthodox version which we have learned in many instances doesnt even exist in the religion. The same purpose all the other religions serve. Of which we have very very few in Canada, Sharia has never nor will ever become ingrained in our CCC and at best (and I doubt highly) be used for religious court the same as Jewish Courts exiost here now. Probably pretty dedicated.....or have a husband who rules the roost. But at the same time we have husbands who beat their wives, who dictate mode of dress, who control the lives and movements of their women , all in the name of something other sky god. The answer to it is education, inclusion and openess.
  19. Any examples? It would appear while hoprribly immoral, it would not be an arrestable offence here. Ok...where you going to live then? The ocean? I suppose that would work, however all supplies would be brought to you....at huge expense. It is here.
  20. There are minimums. So yes, there is still a fine.
  21. Im sorry argus but the reams and reams of Muslims telling us for years that it is NOT the case is far too overwhleming to dismiss. We could ask them?
  22. Scratch out Muslims from that article and we would almost agree. However, that said, repugnant may well be too harsh a word for some of the orthodox ideas and ways. You dont...ok. It makes some diff to me . The existence of the KKK is to hate blacks, jews and RC's . Do they serve any other purpose? Is a muslim existence only to hate groups not their own? One has only a duty to hate. The other has some followers who have conscripted their religion to hate.
  23. Insofar as they exist, ok. But thats not what tim was talking about I think and would like to hear what he meant by that.
