Vampirism is likely a disqualifying condition.

How the fuck did a good majority of folks my age grow up to be such fucking bigots when we had Mr. Rogers, Sesame Street, Fred Penner, Raffi, and the iconic music group of Sharon, Lois & Bram?

Did y'all forget the importance of being kind, empathetic, and compassionate?

Makes it look like TFG is kinda jealous. *shudder*

So we can be a big but poor province instead of four small but poor provinces?

Oddly two of the biggest obstacles would relate to electricity and oil.

And the fact that in a properly balanced electoral map would give Halifax about 2/5 of the seats in that legislature.

The hate seems to carry into the real world. He's the first non-goalie that I've ever seen Leafs fans turn on this quickly.

The Johnny Hockey tribute by the Americans is a nice touch.

Hellebuyck played the greatest game of his career.

With the game the yanks are playing, fuck it, bring out a Wilson, Bennett and Marchand line since gooning is apparently allowed.

Matt Tkachuk should be sitting his ass in the box for that shit. Refs are letting too much go.

I literally have one complaint from playing the demo. The font is too small for those of us old enough to have watched Voyager's original run. πŸ˜‚

What if we were to apply tax rates on huge industrial facilities that reflect their actual value instead of being stuck in the 1990s?

We could just close all the schools. It likely wouldn't hurt our math and literacy scores...

Wow. My math brain broke on that.

Simple math: Take 100000 people out of the population. While they're no longer "taking" jobs, they're also no longer spending money. That means reduced revenue everywhere, so companies aren't going to hire replacements at a higher wage let alone the same wage.

The improvement over the last decade in all three communities is honestly impressive. As a kid, I had the options of Centennial Park and Centennial Park for free skating. πŸ˜‚

The Beast from Down East would be accurate as well.

Every Star Trek series except Voyager and Prodigy have had episodes with wheelchair bound characters.

This image shows a close-up of a dark grey, textured fabricβ€”likely a baseball capβ€”featuring a screen-printed logo in yellow and white.
​The design is the emblem for the USCSS Nostromo, the iconic commercial hauler from the 1979 sci-fi horror film Alien.

HISTORIC BRONZE MEDAL

Courtney Sarault becomes the first Canadian outside of Quebec to win an individual medal in short track speed skating. Bronze in the 500m

Sarault is from Moncton, New Brunswick. And she just told me she’s so proud to put her home on the map.
