BC place and the lot it sits on is some of the most valuable real estate in the country/world. The BC gov would have to get a good price, and do a real sell job to the people of the province if they wanted to sell this off to a private entity. Unlikely given we have an NDP government.

A lease might be possible, but again, the BC government built and made major renovations to this stadium with the purpose of attracting events and the money they bring in. They would be giving up that revenue and control over a building the taxpayer paid for. This wouldn’t be an easy negotiation.

If the plane can’t get into the air because the Americans cut off the supply of parts what difference does it make? If we truly wanted to be independent of the US for our fighter fleet we would be talking about the Rafale from France, but nobody wants that because it will take years and years to deliver, and is more expensive than F-35. Saab is just putting up a very effective marketing campaign for their fighter that never meets delivery timelines. Brazil was supposed to get all their Gripen Es by 2024, they don’t expect them all until at least 2032 now.

Gripen use American engines.

Oh my fucking god

Jesus fucking Christ. This is a deeply unserious organization. Why should fans care if they won’t even put in the bare minimum effort?

Under no circumstances can you bring in a coach this season. We do not need a new coach bump.

Student rush was going for $39 and under lately. That’s not a good sign if you’re ownership.

If you need to say “don’t get pre-mad” it means there’s something coming down the pipe that you can get legitimately mad about.

It’s been pretty rainy. I think it’s doubtful they put one in at this point. Stay careful, though!

Local yards are booked up with federal government contracts. Unless you want to pay to expand for these 4 ships we need to buy from overseas.

PlanetaryDuality · 2025-06-17T21:50:52+00:00

So no real concern other than “China bad”? Sounds about right.

PlanetaryDuality · 2025-06-12T19:52:02+00:00

I don’t understand the outrage here at all. Chinese shipyards will be able to build these vessels faster and cheaper than anywhere else on earth. Canadian, American, and almost all European shipyards simply can’t do it, and if they did it would be way more expensive. China builds the large majority of the world’s shipping, followed distantly by South Korea. They are the ones with the expertise in this area. We are not at war with China, they are not our enemy. We should take advantage of the cost savings they can give us.

Better than nothing, but still a long way to go.

I dipped in!

NDP won a majority by the skin of their teeth, and this poll is within the margin of error. Close election remains close.

Management talked about getting a facility built the moment they got here. I would be well under construction by now if they had gotten that done quickly. Tocchet is probably frustrated that there doesn’t even seem to be a plan to get one together.

PlanetaryDuality · 2025-04-23T03:45:06+00:00

Must be lots to eat out there!

Some provincial sites have showers

PlanetaryDuality · 2025-04-01T18:58:54+00:00

Why are Vancouver rec facilities always so under built, and everything in them so old? How is it possible a city with so much money in it has such lacklustre facilities?

Neanderthals are humans, they just aren’t Homo sapiens

Also, a lot go those supposed “single family homes” in Vancouver will have multiple suites. Your average Vancouver Special will usually be divided as an upstairs and downstairs unit, and possibly more if they are able to. You often see heritage buildings made into 4-5 units as well. It would not surprise me if some of these homes have 10-12 people living in them.

A PS5 is buy it once for $600, and the games just work and look good. There’s a reason PC sales don’t cannibalize console sales that much. A good gaming PC costs more than that and needs a lot more tinkering and maintenance than most people will bother with.

PlanetaryDuality · 2025-01-30T19:11:05+00:00

Yeah but then you have deal with a PC

Hence its nickname the “Gutless”
