It can't all just be about residential growth and density - there still has to be things for those people to do and for visitors to do or what's the point of it all...

They should have reserved sufficient hard and soft surfaces area immediately south of the Expo Centre to host K-Days and it should also be visually accessible from the LRT to try and entice people to attend (and to use transit to and from).. Outside of K-Days, that space could host the exterior...

While it would be nice to see the Oilers win in four and for everyone on the team to be well rested going on to round two, the Ducks, unlike teams like the Avalanche and the Oilers, have absolutely nothing left to prove this season. While inexperienced, they don't know what they don't know, and...

While that might be true emotionally, there is a vast difference between federal and provincial relationships and provincial and municipal relationships. Municipalities are "creatures of their respective provinces" in that they exist solely under provincial legislation and control. How that...

I think they know that and I think they're quite happy to see that happen and then simply use it as yet another example of federal interference in Alberta affairs. Oh look... more squirrels!!!

Oh look!!!!!!! Another squirrel!

If I'm not mistaken, the 23 man roster limit doesn't apply in the playoffs although it does apply to how many players can dress and be on the bench for any given game. The third goaltender simply becomes one the of the team's playoff "black aces" entitled to practice with the full/expanded...

I think you're being generous in calling it cockiness and not pure aggressive arrogance.

I'm not convinced that's the case. As much as we don't directly elect our Prime Minister, they typically "set the tone" for their party and that tone in turn sets the level of public satisfaction or dissatisfaction with the party much more than the other way around. You only have to look at...

^ Advertised ad nauseam - and you just have to love the pitch: ✔ 100× stronger than regular garden trousers ✔ Removes moss, dirt & buildup in seconds ✔ Saves money on costly pressure washers ✔ Universal fit for most garden hoses Wouldn't a universal fit apply to all garden hoses, not just...

I don't think that's what he's suggesting as much as that support for their issues alone won't be enough for him to get his party elected.

The pressures they are probably constantly under??? Who of us doesn't have pressure to do what we're paid to do? Somehow I don't think the job pressures on those doing snow removal are anywhere near that experienced by EMT's or firemen or police officers or air traffic controllers or surgeons...

Some Gehry coloured stainless steel - as striking in person as it is in a photo.

If true perhaps I should change my comment to "snow removal policies and procedures won't fix dumb or dumber..." :(

^ Snow removal policies and procedures won't fix dumb... :( https://edmontonjournal.com/news/local-news/city-admits-it-missed-windrow-removal-on-132-avenue-redesign You just can't make up shIt like this.

I have looked at both in the past and Chancery Hall has the potential to make a spectacular boutique hotel conversion and Century Place would make an equally spectacular mixed-use conversion (particularly with the potential to add some larger/higher end units to a higher end location) with both...

You just can’t make this sh!t up: And we’re still supposed to believe those tariffs are in place to support US production and US workers, They’ll probably ship it on freighters burning oil from Iran.

If you look at the relative perceptions of Poilievre and Carney today vs last Election Day and the fact voters have a right to change who they support without it being “a bit gross” or a slap in the face, it would be just as easy to say these floor crossings reflect the sentiments of voters in...

I think that's a reflection of a number of things including: 1. How poorly the public perception of Poilievre's ability to be Prime Minister really is. That commercial with his apple-crunching, gloating cynicism towards a reporter in an orchard will haunt him forever (and perhaps rightfully...
