of course the winner for 'most homoerotic' sport is high school wrestling, but it only beats rugby because you literally have to dry hump another man into submission to win

man i remember as a kid me and my siblings would leave the house at 8am, probably pop in for a quick lunch, then wouldn't be home till dinner, we'd just be out with all the other neighbourhood kids doing like cops and robbers or whatever.

i can't imagine that now i bet if i allowed my kids to do that someone would phone the cops on me

So apparently Jason Kenney is gonna run for the Alberta PC leadership.

I feel like there's a good chance that if he can unite the PCs and Wildrose, the former will just bleed off support to the Alberta Party (or possibly the Liberals) and we'll kind of end up back where we started.


E: to wit, Sandra Jansen says she will leave PCs if Kenney wins.

Everyones names are stupid anyways. Lets just switch to a number system where a number is assigned at birth by a government agency.


Trudeau promises no back to work legislation for Canada Post. How long before TFWs are delivering the mail as scabs?

http://www.citynews.ca/2016/07/05/canada-post-trudeau-not-considering-back-work-legislation/

quote:

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau says his government is not considering back-to-work legislation if there is a work stoppage at Canada Post.

Trudeau says his government believes in good-faith negotiations that happen around the bargaining table.

The prime minister says there is no need to be “heavy-handed.”

His comments in Montreal Tuesday came after Canada Post said it has issued a 72-hour lockout notice to the Canadian Union of Postal Workers (CUPW), raising the possibility of labour disruption by Friday.

Canada Post said its latest offer presented on June 25 was fair and reasonable and that it still hoped to negotiate a deal with the union.

But in a statement early Tuesday, Canada Post said it plans to suspend the collective agreement as of Friday. It blamed prolonged negotiations, the union’s strike mandate and the financial cost of a rapid decline in mail volume.

Canada Post said the 72-hour notice does not necessarily mean it will shut down on Friday.

Rather, it said, the measure would allow it “take measures that are necessary to respond to the changing business reality.”

In its response, CUPW said the corporation is using the lockout notice to drive 50,000 workers “out onto the streets without pay in an effort to impose steep concessions on them.”

“They refused to negotiate fairly with us and now they’re locking the doors and will try to starve us into submission,” said CUPW president Mike Palecek.

The two sides have both said the key sticking point in negotiations involves changes to employee pension plans.

The Crown corporation said Monday that CUPW’s demands are “not affordable” and would add $1 billion in costs over the life of a new contract. The union accused Canada Post of preparing to lock workers out, and creating uncertainty by warning the public to avoid the post office.

Canada Post has said that in the event of a full work disruption, it will not operate – mail and parcels will not be delivered, and no new items will be accepted.

The Canada Revenue Agency has deemed Old Age Security, Canada Pension Plan, Working Income Tax Benefit and the Canada Child Benefit cheques “essential” – even during a labour disruption.

Spokesman Jon Hamilton said Canada Post has a memorandum of agreement with the union “where the federal socio-economic cheques will be delivered.”

“In the event of a work disruption we would arrange … delivery one day of the month,” he said Monday.

Is there even a country that has raised business taxes in the last 35 years? (That were actually payable and not trivially escapable by pretending to be Irish.)

Neo-liberalism has been the order of the day so long it actually sounds like nonsense.

Parents want to give their kids a different name ... because they want their kid to have a unique brand. Millennials are disruptive; they prefer small brands. And they don’t want their kid associated with any monolithic name that might dominate the cut-throat baby name market.

Maybe they want to reuse the signs next year. Or maybe they weren't sure about going this year when they had the signs printed up. Surely nobody thought "Because It's The Current Year" was somehow good.

Young Liberals tend to be repulsive careerists but they also seem to drink and get laid as much as anyone on a campus so I find them a bit less weird than the self declared Young Conservatives, who usually look like they would shrivel up and die if somebody unraveled the Windsor Knot on their tie.
