...at least nine candidates had won their seats by fewer than 500 votes. Underscoring how much every vote can matter in tight races, two of these ridings were decided by fewer than 40 ballots....

I do that often

Lilley is a right wing purveyor of bullshit....spewing propaganda for the American controlled Chatham Asset Management, owner of the Post Media conglomerate in Canada and who are firmly entrenched in the MAGA world and are no strangers to criminal bond fraud...CFRB having this tool on as a guest host proves they're hiding nothing in their clearly biased stance as a broadcasting entity....CFRB has lost any credibility it had left and that was basically nothing anyway.

I, on the other hand, liked it.

I agree with you. It was very well done, I laughed many times. 

Ditto...I LOL'd a few times...Eddie Murphy's impression of Tracy Morgan was hilarious...Will Ferrell as Big Red in a sketch with Murphy fantastic...also, Meryl Streep as an alien abductee, Robert DeNiro, Martin Short, Steve Martin, Tom Hanks, Scarlett Johansson, Cher, Keith Richards, etc...all A-listers making appearances...very good stuff overall....it also triggered the snowflake MAGA crowd when Hanks came out as a redhat...but we all know SNL is woke as shit and the good ole white boy, rednecks have a hard time with that.

Two of the biggest annoying a-holes in Canada right now are Lilly and Poilievre...they make chalkboard scratching sound like Beethoven...CFRB has been in a shit spiral for years...but having the guy that purveys freedom convoy bullshit for a rag that is owned by a MAGA investment firm and who sleeps with Doug Ford's mouthpiece as a fill-in host is worse than Arthur Fonzarelli jumping great whites on his motorcycle...what a fucken joke.

Some boards have set up an alert system with their transportation providers....the second the buses are cancelled...you get a notification - email or text....you can also go to a schools website or social media accounts first thing in the morning to see if the buses have been cancelled...there are options and there is no need to sit there and wait to see or hear your kid's school to be called out on TV or radio.

Yes.

Fack

Any event that draws over 350,000 spectators to 1 venue in 1 city over 6 days would garner huge coverage...never mind the spin off parties and huge, positive economic impact on the community...Swift is clearly the largest musical talent on Earth right now...her numbers alone live up to the hype.

It's typical of human activity...hang on to things that worked in another era cause they are comfortable and nostalgic to you...AM radio has become a beacon for older generations and (especially in parts of the USA) a vessel to spew evangelical/religious and right-wing bullshit propaganda that caters to those over 65+...they remember AM radio as a key part of how they received and consumed entertainment and information...those days are gone and the ratings numbers don't lie...fewer are listening and even fewer of those people are under 55 years old...it's slowly but surely dying and nothing will stop the grim reaper from eventually showing up.

I did that job...I would suggest taking up finish carpentry before applying for that gig these days...pretty much any job at Corus for that matter...unless you're part of an outside legal/accounting/hr agency team that will oversee its inevitable bankruptcy/liquidation...if I sound bitter it's because I am...fuck Corus.

I like this idea too...the bullshit that can be spread to millions of people in a second without any proof points is palpable...for example, I now know for certain that cats and dogs and other pets are being eaten by Haitian immigrants in Ohio and that Viktor Orban, the Prime Minister of Hungary, is a real stand up guy thanks to Trump's participation in the last Presidential candidates debate!

When you shop for a new vehicle the specifications sheets on the OEM/company's websites should tell you which model/trim comes with SXM...or you can call any dealer and speak with a salesperson....just make sure you know the exact model and trim you are looking for to make things easier.

If you're on the left of the political spectrum the last thing you want is for Trump to die any time soon...personally these 'assassination attempts' don't pass the smell test to me, seem staged, and have been linked to right wing nut jobs with assault guns...Democrats want to see Trump alive so he can get thoroughly destroyed in the upcoming election, watch him claim it was rigged to add to the embarrassment, maybe cause another Jan 6 debacle and then see him go away forever, locked up in prison for the crimes he's guilty of....he needs to live for bit longer.

This is more common than listeners realize...when I was at MOJO 640/Q107/Edge the egos in the studio and halls were palpable...Derringer, Humble and Fred, Scruff, Krystal, etc., big time morning shows, seasoned news people and DJs...there was jealousy and paranoia all over the place and it was clear some folks couldn't care for others....they either avoided each other completely or if the had to co-exist, especially on-air for any amount of time, the uncomfortableness was clearly felt in the studio and over the air...I'm gonna go out on a short limb and speculate that Kelly thinks Oakley is a tool.
