I think Sturgeon Falls fits the description.

I'm not kidding though.

Well maybe you aren't either.

I got in a fight on a fishing trip to Sturgeon Falls with my family when I was 12...

But the prostitute is usually related to the John.

If it’s a small town, potentially.

Usually you just assume all the Ukrainians are related out there.

He has faultered so many times? I didn’t see that. They tried to pull a trump? ?

You are completely unbiased...

No, but Richard Lehoux did.

Lol..

the two high schools in Sturgeon played against us in football and hockey Haha.. we’d crush them like 20-0 after the first period lol. That town is fücked up tho. Most of the foster kids i knew (my grandma raised them) were from there.

He's a 2nd pairing guy at best and he definitely makes mistakes with the pucks. Had well over 100 giveaways last year. For a guy who isn't suppose to be making that many passes, he gives it up a lot. And his shutdown / PKing abilities weren't all that impressive in the playoffs last year either.

If the Leafs get another guy that is his "type" to put with Rielly, they'll just have another Hainsey on their hands. They need somebody better than that, not more of the same.
- JohnFergusonJr

Except he puts up opposite #’s as Hainsey and is usually dragging someone around...anyways if you don’t see it by his play, I don’t know what to tell you.

I’d take another 1 to play with Rielly in a heart beat.

Cheers, off to bed.

Just Alberta? Don’t you mean the entire west? (frank) I hate how much politics has divided everyone. It was bad enough when it was the leafs goaltending starts. Everyone thinks they have it all figured out.

The west and the majority of Canadians In general. People make the mistake of voting for the figure heads in general. Whether it be not voting for Trudeau because he did black face or if it's Scheer because of his voting record for gay rights when every party leader is just gonna vote on their political positions for every position. The reality is the biggest issue in this election is our economy. As far as gay rights goes. Gay people have the same rights as everyone else right now. No one is going to take that away. biggest issue in this election is climate change and the conservatives had the best plan to address that. The carbon tax just scared off investments into our oil and gas Industries which is the biggest part of Canada's gdp. Only party against that was the conservatives whos plan was to have the biggest contributors to our carbon footprint to invest in green energy which is much more appealing to big companies as they would rather invest into technologies than pay taxes where their money goes to a government to decide where that goes. In my opinion all provinces that voted unanimously blue should be aloud to leave the country with their resources and the remainder of the country should be forced to live with the government they elected with no equalization payments.

Edit: I say this as a Newfoundlander that voted almost unanimously liberal

Also I'm happy to debate anything I just said if you'd like too

Is the biggest issue climate change or the economy? You said both were the biggest issue, just wondering which one you meant.

From the climate change perspective I think one could argue that the plan that the conservatives put forward didn't really seem to have any concrete data or numbers to back it up, so it's not something people can really get behind. It also came late in the game so it's hard to know how much of a priority it really would be for them. Even the title (A Real Plan) made it seem more like a reactionary political move than a committed solution. It's good that they at least acknowledge climate change exists, I just didn't see much in it that showed a real commitment to making it a top priority, more so than some of the other parties at least.

I'll be the first to admit I don't know everything about the "Real Plan" so if you do have the numbers and what they were willing to commit to, it would be great to hear.

The climate change and economy debate in Canada are one and the same as our biggest part of our GDP is the oil and gas industry and the climate debate goes against it. So you need to balance to two out. I for one actually think the climate change debate is horse poop as they've been preeching the same thing for 40 years and they've been wrong the whole time. Also if you look at all the stats they give they show over the last 20 to 30 years like temperatue increase and weather intensity but if you extrapolate over 100 year you see that things havent changed much but lets ignore my own biases and assume we are the cause of climate change. Canada makes up 2% of the world carbon footprint. The liberal and NDP's want to kill our oil and gas industry and go 100% green. The government has no money. All their money comes from tax payers so they want to shut down our biggest source of gdp and have the tax payers pay even though they are killing thousands of high paying jobs to build the infrastructure for this green energy which doesn't actually exist right now. The conservatives wanted to prop up our oil and gas industry that generates thousands of high paying jobs and have those big companies pay for the research into green energy which in turn would make Canada a leader in the field which we could sell to foreign countries in need. Which makes more sense?

In Canada alone the oil and gas industry has invested over 3.8 billion dollars into green technology. Who else has contributed anything near that. Quebec is to busy taking equalization payment and crying about wanting to be sovereign and Ontario is to busy taking equalization payments and looking down on the rest of the country. You all take the money of the west and then think you have some moral high ground. The only reason the Canadian economy doesn't collapse is because the oil and gas industry and the farming industry which all come from the west.

I was for conservative myself. Lived in Alberta for 14 years. I don’t want to talk politics on here though. I like hockey. I like the leafs. I hate talk about back ups and almost everything JFJ and UG try and bother everyone about.

Haha I'm the same way. Just a little fired up lol I'll get back to hockey now.

I’d rather talk Mikeyhev’s next contract or who is most expendable. The latter is a tough answer for anyone. Kapanen created tonight, Johnsson too, Nylander had a goal and was generally quiet. I dunno what to make of those three.... they all have to be on the block... to me it’s Kapanen cause you already have Marner and Nylander on the right side. Johnsson the big left wing. But I don’t know how much Kapanen would get you or what the leafs would even look for. Decent dman or back up.

Haha yeah, there’s going to be wayyyy too much of this stuff for the next little bit. I wish mods in here would make it so those conversations are left off the threads. Do that on Facebook, Twitter or election buzz. That said, anyone do what you want. Not telling you want you can or can’t do. Ruin this place, don’t ruin it. Whaaaaaaatever.

Yeah that's fair. You need an escape from all the craziness. You've swung me. That'll be my last politically charged comment on here.

Again the issue is the plan, I think if the conservatives were serious about reducing emissions and creating green solutions, they would have come up with a comprehensive plan with concrete data that people could get behind. I believe in climate change but I'm also not just against everything oil and gas, I do think there could have been a real solution there, but a vague promise of research into green solutions while being propped up by the government isn't it. To me the plan seemed like something put together because of strong public interest in climate change but not a real solution with real numbers showing how it would work.

Honestly, if you have any concrete data/analysis that shows how the plan would work practically, it would be great to hear. I'm totally open to learning more.

(frank) I just promised the previous guy I wouldn't talk about this anymore lol

Alright (frank) it I'm not a man of my word. Now here's the issue. No one has an answer to the issue because it doesn't exist outside of nuclear which everyone is afraid of. There is no green solution outside of nuclear which the left refuses and which we have an abundance of in Canada. So if we're going to ignore nuclear power currently there is no viable green solution. It's going to cost a poop ton of money to try and figure this out. The left's plan is to destroy our economy by killing our oil and gas industry because it looks good on a world stage and then magically coming up with the money out of thin air to fund a solution. The rights plan is to prop up our oil and gas industry and the force them to research the solution. Neither has a guaranteed solution but one idea destroys our economy in the mean time while the other doesn't. So I voted for the one that doesn't.
