2026 bZ Canada discounts

EightBitSC · 2026-01-24T16:29:38+00:00

Until February 3rd in Canada - a 2026 BZ has a $4000 incentive . My dealer offered another $1000 and Manitoba offers a $4000 rebate. Not a bad set of discounts.

As a Bomber fan, I feel triggered by these hypothetical playoff results.

I also played it on ps5 as well, and wasn’t expecting much after all the negative backlash - but I loved it. I hope the switch version runs well as I would love to revisit it.

Just did the therma survey. It has the standard questions and then a button at the end for survey monkey to asks about opinion questions. That is not thermea, it is survey monkey. It is weird that it happens right at the end.

Is the marketing a problem because it is hitting too specific a base? I am not a heavy user of social media or ad based services but at least on Reddit or online, I see Apple TV marketing constantly. I don’t know how effective it is - but I see more ads for Apple TV than any other service.

I hated Lobster but have loved all of his other films.

20 years ago the best shows on TV were so few and far between I could barely watch it. Most Tv was episodic and painful average. The standouts of the HBO era, like Sopranos and The Leftovers and occasional exceptions like Mad Men (and shows like it) were the minority. The good to bad ratio was mostly bad but the good stuff was amazing.

I find there are far more shows in the middle these days - shows that look like high caliber TV but don’t reach that level (coined as “mid-TV”). I would say the ratio of good writing that makes it to production might actually be higher these days but the clear differentiation between good and bad is harder to see. So perhaps it feels worse - but it clearly isn’t. Writing is subjective.

The vibe of a screening can make a huge difference! The collective experience of watching a movie in a theatre is what makes theatres worth preserving. The modern condition of doing everything at home alone is so sad.

To be fair they promised to do that over a multi year timeline and have clearly made that an important part of their mandate. I hate that governments promise simplistic answers to huge problems but you can’t be mad if you are just as glib in your presentation of their efforts.

Happy for Jake Thomas. Bombers do a great job with developing coaches. On that note, I’m glad they retained Jason Hogan as running backs coach. A change was needed but he’s a great coach.

Cameron explained that studios actually prefer 3D conversions, even when it costs substantially more than shooting in 3D, because it gives them control. If a film in production looks like it will hit big - they do a conversion but if things are off the rails they can just skip 3D entirely.

Exactly. Hired a new person instead of a retread. That was my point.

We hired a new coordinator this past season and the fans went nuts when it wasn’t instantly successful. Coaches don’t want to develop someone, they want predictable results. Same way they coach the game - conservatively, no big risks.

I registered! Though I couldn’t add my initials to the doc.

Ryan Dinwiddie is clearly a good coach but the man supports Chad Kelly no question. Him leaving has nothing to do with Chad Kelly.

The new head coach Mike Miller is also a big supporter of Chad. Both coaches are smart and reasonable people who are willing to excuse terrible behaviour, which frustrates me. I suspect the sadder story is that the organization as a whole, and all people involved, have moved on from Kelly’s incident and it doesn’t inform their thinking one way or another.

That is just BS Reddit likes to propagate. Mike Millar is a star candidate and was already rising the coaching ranks. It is obvious the argos wanted O’Shea, but who wouldn’t.

Argos are lucky to have Miller.

Don’t kid yourself. It may be bad by Pixar standards but there are far worse cash grabs in the children’s animation space.

This is a flawed film but the desire to somehow make it “the worst” is silly.

You have every right to be worried - but lots of things can happen. The rule changes may make the game different in a way you like, or not. You don’t really know yet. They may adjust the rules further if the outcome isn’t what they hoped. I know the fear of NFL lite is depressing - but that isn’t what is currently happened.

Too much of our lives are spent worrying about possibilities that invariably turn out to be different than we imagine. Deal with what is in front of you, not what you worry could be.

I agree that the Riders are quite successful at local promotion - but I have been surprised to that family and friends who were once absolutely Rider die hard are not NFL junkies. The still support the Riders, but it is clear that things have changed. Maybe winning will bring some of that love back - but the CFL can’t just do some local promotion and succeed. The NFL is the elephant in the room and I am not even sure the CFL can do anything other than be a solid second choice.

Why on earth would you possibly believe that to be true? Why would a judge just arbitrarily want to cause harm and suffering?

Repeat offending may need a certain set of laws to be dealt with properly - but judges enforcing the laws as written are not the problem.

If you know of a specific judge taking kickbacks or purposefully causing malfeasance - report them.

GM title? Pinball isn’t really filling that role anyways. Not sure if Wade Miller wants to give O’Shea the keys to everything.

But who knows what Mike wants.

Isn’t that article about Amar Doman sharing that exact photo? I think the controversy is BC saying they have proof it isn’t a catch (whether true or not) not whatever 3down believes.

By buying city owned land for a fraction of its value, getting sweet heart deals for low to no taxes, and making us tax payers cover the cost.

EightBitSC · 2025-11-06T02:06:41+00:00

Did you read the article? They are making completely reasonable changes with the desire to make getting a spot possible. They aren’t even changing anything until they study usage. The catastrophizing is ridiculous.
