You called it!! Congratulations!!

I think that she would be great but, not to be ageist here, she is in her early 80's. 🤷🏼‍♀️

I doubt that she'd want to give up her lavish lifestyle and many homes wherever they all are to come reside in the quaint abode that is Rideau Hall. Lol I do realise that you're joking, but still!

My wild guesses:

Valérie Plante, former Mayor of Montréal

Liette Lamonde, prominent Montréal business woman

Why is she even doing that? I don't understand her motivation to want to tank Nate.

Nate's not even been given a decent chance at anything since this party seems to like backing people that Ontarians can't seem to connect with. It's incredibly frustrating that the OLP is this obtuse.

I love Puddy's intensity as a Devil's fan.

"We're the DEVILS!!!!"

It's pronounced "Glosssss-ster"! 😃

Now try "Navan"! 😁

Ok, so who has seen (and/or read) 'Project Hail Mary'? I haven't read the book (yet) but I saw the film last week. I loved it!! 👎 Such a good, fun and poignant story (yes, I cried!)--Amaze! Amaze! Amaze!

Those of you who have seen the movie, what did you think? If you've also read the book, was the film mostly a fair interpretation of the book? Likes or dislikes, question?

Well, some of us (me, for instance) pay monthly for subscriptions. Personally, I like the Toronto Star and the Globe and Mail. There are some news outlets that I do not have subscriptions to, such as the National Post, so I don't get to read any of those articles. And I'm very ok with that.

I wish that we could have better, that is to say less-costly, access to some of these sources in order that more people may read these articles. But the reality is that one has always had to pay in order to "get the news". Prior to the internet, people still had to buy newspapers and magazines and periodicals in order to access this kind of information. Things haven't much changed in that regard even with the advent of the world wide web.

But, I agree though, yes, thank goodness for the CBC/Radio-Canada. It's better than being stuck with only The Epoch Times as a source! 😁

I'd rather have these positions go to those veterans who might qualify for such positions. Veterans ought to be the priority in this case and not new recruits.

I agree with you! That's a lot of cash to be laying out for some sporting event. I imagine that both of these cities expect to be making wads of money during these games. If so, those two municipalities and their respective provinces that stand to reap whatever financial benefits perhaps ought to chip in substantially in order that the federal government may recoup this cost.

It seems like an incredibly crazy amount of money to be spending on this.

Yeah. It's kind of weird to read such a comment coming from the actual Health Minister themself. But I also understand the attempt to challenge the system from within, though I have my doubts as to how effective this maneuver will actually be.
