    Liberal (Minority/Majority) Government 2025 - ???

    If you look at the current membership of commons committees, you may notice that the chairmanship of the majority of committees (especially the ones that matter) already follows normal commons practice, in that the chair is from the government party. I doubt there will be much, if any change...

    Liberal (Minority/Majority) Government 2025 - ???

    After swinging to ~ 900 vote lead, now settled back to just over 400 around 260. It's gonna be a long night.

    Colonel Edward Campbell

    A loss to the country, the military and this site. The collective IQ lamp dimmed. From googling Ted, I was reminded of his (semi-anonymous?) contribution as part of the "Ruxted Group" which to a great extent was responsible for the good reputation that this site enjoyed.

    Yup. https://greatlakes-seaway.com/en/commercial-shipping/tolls-schedule/#:~:text=Table_title:%202026%20Seaway%20Schedule%20of%20Tolls%20Table_content:,MLO:%20n/a%20%7C%20Welland:%20$%200.3582%20%7C

    Epstein Shockwave

    You're assuming that dead piece of shit had no hobbies or interests beyond rape and pedophilia. There are numerous stories of rich assholes in bidding wars for dinosaur skeletons and other fossils. If you can't get the bones, it's not beyond the realm of possibility that cultivating...

    A-10 Warthog

    So, slightly more than the life expectancy of 4 CMBG in the same environment.

    All Things AB Separatism (split fm Liberal Minority Government 2025 - ???)

    My expectation is that Alberta separatists (overt and covert) will not "frig off" even if the result is a 'no'. The current UCP government has become very obvious about putting their thumb on the scales. With even modest support for separation Smith will continue to make it easier for what was...

    RCAF Col Jeremey Hansen to orbit the moon in 2024

    I enjoyed the comment from mission control: “Happy to report that toilet is go for use. We do recommend letting the system get to operating speed before donating fluid, and then letting it run a little bit after donation.”

    RCAF Col Jeremey Hansen to orbit the moon in 2024

    Good explanation. So, Col Hanson gets to go round and round the moon because Canadians specialized in a particular arm and hand function. There were probably adolescents dreaming of being engineers who years and years ago conceived of . . .

    I thought Canada had exclusive right to nickname currency "Looney".

    Loadsa "independents" on the Ballot Discussion (split from PP by-election)

    If someone wanted to screw with the write-in balloting, they (either the candidate/party or one with anarchist tendencies - 'not' poll workers) could distribute pre-inked stamps with the (selected) candidates named already prepped. Save the trouble of writing the name on the ballot. Or perhaps...

    Alberta government thread

    And in other Alberta political corruption news ... https://globalnews.ca/news/11743669/calgary-city-councillor-rcmp-seized-his-devices-investigation/ This wouldn't be related to the provincial government controversy, but I wouldn't be surprised if the allegations/complaint originated from...

    The WTF News Files

    I was also puzzled by the description of the accused. 'Professional' cornhole? WTF?
