  1. McCallum has backed off on the 450,000 figure thrown around and the number will stay at 300,000.
  2. http://kawarthanow.com/2015/02/03/monsef-to-seek-nomination/ Was there some backroom dealing to get her to quit? By who's standards would Monsef's experience would be considered an "excellent skillset"? I think her skillset consists of being female and her family's back story.
  3. Offensive to women golfers? https://www.facebook.com/southernstylemodel.brittney/photos/a.116366691717382.11829.108740529146665/1236510313036342/?type=3&theater
  4. Fail, thanks for posting the link, I had seen the teaser earlier on Sun'. I wonder if people wear offensive costumes just to piss off the hand wringers that pretty much find offence in everything in day to day life. More or less a great big middle finger to the elites. The woman that complained to Home Depot about that Peeper Creeper thing must be a real fun person to be around. Next up the war of Christmas. Mind you we all heard about Diwali over the weekend (even in the linked video).
  5. Didnt the MSM repeat the same old same old about Duffy during the election even though no new details were forthcoming? Pt sounds like you moved to Apsley. Same thing w/ the welfare. Theres a county housing building here & they ship the neer do wells from Ptbo to it. Most of my friends that grew up here moved away to find work. Then you get asshats w/ a family (and no skills) moving here. Then they bitch that they cant find work.
  6. Then you have the vet' in the Niagara Region who after complaints about mistreating his patients requires 4 months of "retraining" to bring him up to speed so to speak w/ Ontario's standards.
  7. The local media were her cheerleaders & the MSM doesn't like saying anything bad about the Liberals. Other than Justine's appearance in Medicine Hat before the by-election (which all the networks covered) did you hear any results? No, it was like the by-election didn't happen. The whole Monsef situation doesn't fit the narrative of change (from the bad old Conservatives) or "sunny ways". Other than seeing her on CHEX going on about her Red Pashmina campaign or some announcement about the New Canadians centre, most people didn't have a clue who she was. I've gotten ripped on the various Ptbo media Faceplant pages by some clown that owns a stand up paddle board business in the city. He says I shouldn't be so "negative" about her. When I asked if she was doing anything about the situation w/ GM possibly closing up shop in Oshawa, he posted what did that have to do w/ Ptbo. I showed him the survey that showed GM is the largest private sector employer in the Ptbo area. He shut up after that. Pretty much the rest of the employment are health care or education. GE is a small fraction of what it used to be. I'm glad there are others on Faceplant that see problems w/ this scam. Oh the sheep will say, "Oh what does it matter? She didn't do what Del Mastro did..."
  8. CP24 was saying the Liberals plan to remove a rule that Harper had put in place. The old regular rule stated that a new immigrant would have to stay w/ their sponsoring spouse for 2 years. According to CP24, this rule will be removed. The chap that owns the general store has a racket going on where he has a new couple of Asian descent working for him for 6 months. They disappear and another couple arrives to repeat the cycle.
  9. http://www.cbc.ca/news/politics/immigration-system-increase-mccallum-1.3812749 I can't believe McCallum had those thoughts. He must be drying out. Has anyone ever explained how "diversity" has helped Canada? I don't ever remember it being mentioned during Oshawa's Fiesta Week during its heydey. Some talk on the CBC this morning & the reporter said most immigrants settle in the big cities, which doesn't help declining populations in rural & small town Canada. The reason those populations are declining is that there are no jobs there. Why would it make sense to plunk immigrants down in areas of unemployment? In Apsley, Asians already own the motel/restaurant and the "general store". I can't think of any other businesses they'd be interested in.
  10. Raitt comes across as someone you wouldn't want to be on the wrong side of. Monsef has the personality & demeanor of a kindergarden teacher.
  11. Saw this on the news last night. What's next the ONA complaining about this: http://media.cascade-uk.com/Image.aspx?ImageUrl=http://www.smiffys.com.au/IMG/Images/29282.jpg&Width=760&Height=1000 Maids wanting this banned:
  12. Yeah he can ramble on when asked a question & talk in circles if that's what you call being a great MP. Crypt keeper LOL, I'm more inclined to call him the bar keeper AKA Foster Brooks.
  13. Justin Trudeau = (fill in the blank) All the Liberal "back room guys" were looking @ when he was anointed leader was his last name. Then you have the pisstank representing Markham-Thornhill. Supposedly he was an economist for RBC.
  14. The bold applies to that useless senile old f3ck Chiarelli who as energy minister basically insulted the A-G Bonnie Lysyk. The Toronto Star had an interview w/ him when he was minister of transport (Don't you love it when they bounce these asshats from ministry to ministry?). When asked about raising the speed limits or going after left lane bandits on the 400 series highways, he said & I quote, "I'm not a car guy."
  15. My confusion. A bit of a coincedence (to me) that Tinker's transmission was the same "basic" confifguration.
  16. Never did I say that only business owners qualify to be MPs. I'm saying someone w/ no experience in the private sector is a bad choice. Has she ever had to work within a budget? Has she had to deal w/ deadlines on on a project.? In case you missed it here is her resume. How being the losing mayoral candidate looks good, I don't know. Mind you she's well aware of "job churn" as mentioned by her colleague, Finance Minister. I haven't heard any explanation as to the reason for her short terms of employment, seemed to jump from 1 job to the next.

  17. I would think it would be hard for a person that was gainfully employed to support anyone that has skated from 1 public service job to another year after year. Discussing her w/ a friend and I said her longest time at a single job was administrative assistant @ Trent U. "So yo're saying she was a secretary?" was his reply. I just shrugged my shoulders. Oh & she ran a window washing franchise for a year. Guess in the Canadian Business Hall of Fame she should rank up there w/ RS McLaughlin & Timothy Eaton.
  18. Monsef is the "poster child" for this. Her CV is incredibly thin. How anyone would think she was a worthy candidate & would make a good MP, I have no idea. It would be interesting to see the polling station results. I'm pretty sure outside of Ptbo, the CPC candidate won the polls. She went after the student vote & got it. Now we're stuck w/ an MP as bad as, if not worse than the used car salesman Del Mastro.
  19. The Los Angeles Times covering the story: http://www.latimes.com/world/mexico-americas/la-fg-canada-monsef-snap-story.html I'm surprised that this non-story (according to Libtards) is popping up on the left coast of the States.
  20. 2 words that should be banned from daily usage, inclusiveness & tolerance. Rather than society as a whole having to change because of a minority of whiners, maybe the whiners should grow a pair. Love the Faceplant memes that list the "bad" things kids of the 60s & 70s were exposed to. Any of us that grew up in that era would probably have to visit our parents in jail by today's standardss. Dr. Phil & Oprah have brainwashed too many mothers in the last generation.
  21. Now we're up to 11 women, the most recent being an "adult video actress" named Jessica Drake: http://www.usmagazine.com/celebrity-news/news/jessica-drake-accuses-donald-trump-of-sexual-misconduct-w446294 LOL on US Weekly covering the election. I doubt their average reader votes.
  22. US politicians have been questioned on their "massaged" Vietnam War experience. Why should this lightweight get a pass? If it hadn't been for the Del Mastro nonsense in the riding & the ABC "movement" across Canada, she would've been neck & neck w/ the NDP candidate for 2nd place in the riding. Plus the Ptbo councillor who lost the nomination to her wasn't impressed. Not sure what his issue was (instant party members voting?). Other than her failed attempt @ running for mayor w/o any experience on council, most people had never heard of her. I wonder if the whole mayoral bid was just to get her name out there in advance of the federal election? I do recall seeing her yammering on about some Red Pashmina campaign on CHEX. Her resume is thinner than a Captain Canuck comic book.
  23. The way Potatohead walked out into the crowd reminder me of Jack Ruby shooting Lee Harvey Oswald
  24. Up to the show & got all but 1 of the latest maps (missing D1 as they only had 2016 maps) & will start going thru them to update the database. If anyone can confirm the status of any of the listed businesses the help would be greatly appreciated. I'll post when the online info has been updated. Below is a list of lodgings that I can't determine if they are open or not. If you can update me via a post or PM, it would be greatly appreciated. Also while doing Google searches for these places, I'm getting hits for them in listings on other snowmobile websites. Only the database in my link is being updated on a regular basis. Thanks to those of you that have messaged me or posted updates over the years.
