I'm not sold on Chuck 😂 But it's the system we've got, and at least we have a non-partisan head of state. That's good enough for me.
I am firmly monarchist, I believe in Her Majesty, Queen Elizabeth the Second. I refuse to acknowledge any changes since then. Long live the Captain General! 😂 (Seriously, the Royal Canadian Horse Artillery flag still bears the cypher of EIIR)
All that to say, I know I'm looking at this from a purely training safety perspective, and there's a lot more to this than that. But from a purely safety perspective, I think this is being overblown. The political overtones of this can't be understated, and the optics of doing this are terrible.
Thinking of Canadian safety protocols, it would have to be one hell of a catastrophic drop short to land anywhere near the roadway. Assuming 155mm, fixed safety distance would be 1240m either side of the MSR. I don't have TFTs on hand, but that'd be an absurd elevation error to cause any incident.
Karl Douglas was not a good QB for the Stampeders... 😂 And yet they somehow got significantly worse in 1976 after getting rid of him! Researching my collection certainly gets my into the details of eras long past.
Still, nice to see it stopped and turned into a TD the other way.
Didn't like him as a player, don't like him as a coach...
It's a bit of a jerk move to go for a fake punt when you're up 13-0 on a team with zero momentum at all. Glad to see Ottawa make the stop on that.
I have to admit, I like the move back towards the traditional Rough Riders look with these black uniforms, it'd be nice to see a matching road jersey, with the saw as a secondary logo for a third jersey or something like that.
Hopefully? As an outside observer with no real interest in the RedBlacks, I prefer this logo.
In theory, provided American safety restrictions for firing over roadways are the same as Canadian restrictions, there is nothing wrong with this scenario. W Bty fires over the TCH through Gagetown all the time with appropriate ammo restrictions with no issues. Maybe I'm underthinking this?
Do you have a VPN? You could VPN back to Canada to check.
Looking at the structural and technical differences between some of my helmets and... a couple of my helmets use pieces of rope as part of the head protection system. The brain should NOT be protected by a piece of rope...
100 years of helmet development in two photos. Thinking of the tragic injury that Tom Pate suffered while playing against Calgary 50 years ago tomorrow, I couldn't help but think of how far helmet technology has come. 1st photo shows a 1920s helmet, 2nd photo shows a 1960s helmet compared to modern.

It's easy to forget or rush past adding alt text to your images, but there's a setting for that!

Now you'll be prompted to enter a brief image/gif description so everyone can enjoy your posts. Plus your butt will look incredible, a true little known side effect.
What a fun skeet you posted. But how disappointing that it doesn’t have alt-text because it means I’m not going to share it.
Ah! Unified by the glory that is Kevin Glenn! 😂
Still weird to see a Stamps and Argos sticker on the same vehicle... 😂

OPUS DEI IS THE SCIENTOLOGY OF CATHOLICISM THEY ARE THE ONLY THING "THE DA VINCI CODE" GOT RIGHT THEY ARE AWFUL AND THEY ARE EVIL AND THEY HAVE ENORMOUS POWER AND THEY ARE INTEGRAL TO TRADFASH CATHOLICISM
BREAKING: Pope Leo XIV is set to effectively disband Opus Dei in the coming weeks.

This would be the most sweeping internal reform of his pontificate — and a dramatic continuation of Pope Francis’s legacy.
NEW: Pope Leo Set To Break Up Opus Dei
If Pope Leo does indeed approves a plan that effectively dissolves Opus Dei’s structure, it would be the most significant internal action of his short pontificate to date.

Personally, I'm glad that they're throwing a bone to the older demographic by getting Our Lady Peace for the opening concert. I at least know who they are, and am familiar with their music! 😂
Oh, Machine Gun Kelly... I guess that's a big-ish deal?
Who or what is MGK? 🤔 I get that I'm old, but is MGK actually a thing? Is this actually a big deal or something?
IT'S GOING TO BE A ROCKIN' NIGHT! 🕺💃

MGK has been announced as the Bud Light Grey Cup Halftime Show performer, taking the stage in Winnipeg for the 112th #GreyCup! 🔥

Our Lady Peace will start things off with the SiriusXM Grey Cup Kickoff Show, with Catie St.Germain performing the anthem! 🪩
My last two GPs have left Regina for BC.
