There were a lot of records broken this week. This is not normal at all. Every year sometime between November and February we can expect something in the -30C range for two or three days but this is colder and has lasted for a longer time. We hunker down and make it through. I think there's a bit of cabin fever going on now but it will be over by Monday when we should be a bit warmer than the average of -8C.
Our summers are like yours in Michigan but shorter and not humid because of the Great Lakes. Lots of kids aren't going to school because most school busses are not running. It's dangerous for the kids to be waiting outside for busses. As a matter of fact Bella, yesterday I saw a teenage boy with his pants pulled up and a girl without rips in her jeans!!  |
Lazy people at work!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Grrrrrrrr |
Tannertx, it's the shows that you watch. I see the same commercials, primarily on news channels. I feel your pain... but there's a pill for that. |
At 12:30 AM on January 15th (now) the temperature is -38*C (-36.4*F) where I live in Alberta, Canada. That doesn't include wind chill. It's going to be -40 by morning. -40 is where Fahrenheit and Celsius are the same temperature.
It's so cold that teenage boys have their pants pulled up. It's so cold that... ? --------------------------------------- added after 55 minutes It happened. It's 1:26 AM MST and -40* out. |
Why Buck, are you telling us what we can and can not discuss here? OK we'll all abide by your rules. Sorry. |
Canada taxes the hell out of cigarettes and alcohol because “they” are high users of health care.
I doubt that your number is correct. added after 54 minutes...……. If the US population of 372M had healthcare for the same price as Alberta's per capita of $5,100 per year it would cost about $1.9T. Even if you double that it would still be less than $4T, nowhere near the $34-52T that "they" say. |
Petro635 you didn't answer my question.
Who is "they" that said it would cost $34-52T? There are many examples in the Western World of how to pay for universal healthcare. It can be done. |
Then how come every other western country can do it but the US can't? Who is "they" that you quote this number from?
It is estimated that the province of Alberta spent $5,100 per Albertan on health care in 2018. only registered users can see external links No hospitals in Canada are designed to make a profit as apposed to American hospitals. |
Just to clarify, if I see a specialist my doctor's office makes the appointment then the specialist calls me with a time and date. Alberta Health does not cover dental, prescriptions, glasses and some other things but if I had a heart attack it would cost me nothing except the medications I would take AFTER I leave the hospital.
I have never filled out any paperwork for payment purposes. |
I will never understand why Americans don't want Medicare for everyone. I don't get the concept of selling your house for medical procedures.
I GLADLY pay more taxes for Medicare. A friend of mine just passed from breast cancer and she had the best possible care and paid nothing out of pocket for it. I can go to any hospital and see any doctor in my home province of Alberta for any legitimate procedure and never pay out of pocket. If I'm elsewhere in Canada there's more paperwork but Alberta Health Care will pay. |
I have two galleries of me in panties. One is cock out and the other is no cock. Warning: May cause

Remember the "Rockford" dgraff?  |
In Canada about 14 people die in avalanches every year.

That's correct. Also if they vote on your photos. |
I don't know but he sure had a thorough look through my profile though. |
E-cards are a much better way to go!
As an aside, Canada Post delivers more packages than anyone in Canada and they also make a handsome profit! Not bad for a government run agency. Merry Christmas SYD members! |
Febreze KFC? KFC condoms? KFC KY Jelly? KFC candles? Excuse me... |

Good morning!! |
So sherryann, what happened before the clip starts? |
I just saw this on the news.
Let's be clear, none of us know what happened before the officer did what he did. The man was obviously very close to the officer for him to do that. Another officer might have pulled out his gun and shot him dead but we don't know because the clip starts after the officer made his decision. I don't have enough information to form an opinion about his actions. |
Piddles, at least give Rebeca Klar credit for writing the article that you plagiarised.

Barack HUSSEIN Obama will drive Trump nuts for the rest of Trump's life. You can't buy class.
It's snowing in Denver this Thanksgiving weekend. It's that fucking Obama's fault of course. |
Of course! 🤣 |
No holiday weekends? I know that would never fly in Canada. Some days just can't be changed like Jan 1, July 1, Nov 11 an Dec 25. |
Trump said that there was talk about changing the name of Thanksgiving. I doubt that.

Romaine was pulled from our menu yesterday because it's possible that our supplier received some of the contaminated product. |
dgraff, while traveling through the Rockies from Alberta to BC snow tires or chains are required by law from Nov 1 - March 31 and any other time that the highway is snow or ice covered. Highway 93 goes waaaaay up the Rockies then goes waaaaay down after passing the continental divide. |
So dgraff you were out there making money!! |
Bella, Raw beef can contain bacteria on the surface, but parasites can't penetrate the dense meat, so most of the dangers lie on the exterior. That's why a rare steak, once the outside has been cooked, is perfectly safe to eat in most cases. -Google copy/paste
Prime rib and steaks are cooked on the outside but ground beef has the outside mixed into the middle so it must be well done to be safe. I lived in Banff, Alberta for ten years and I pissed off many an American when I told them we don't serve medium rare burgers. I always have spring mix in my house; iceberg lettuce has never passed my doorway. |

You're right Phart, grow it yourself but if you live in the north you can only eat it in the summer.
Some easy ways to prevent e-coli (and other contaminations) is to eat your ground beef patties WELL DONE (eating underdone burgers is an American thing; in Canada we never eat them like that and refuse to serve them in restaurants underdone), wash your hands often while cooking, wash counters, knives, HANDS and cutting boards WITH SOAP AND WATER after raw meat has touched them. If you just run something under water it hasn't been washed!!!! Before I start cooking at home I ALWAYS start by filling the sink with hot soapy water, clean as I go and wash my hands often. |
In the restaurant I work in now we put anchovies and a touch of liquid smoke in our Caesar dressing. |
Why doesn't everyone just stop eating romaine lettuce forever because of all of the e-coli contaminations that keeps happening?
Why do grocery stores and restaurants still sell it? Why is there a market for it? Life without the Caesar salad would be tolerable. Answer: Because consumers want it. It never comes into my house. |
Yes TWM, my 36 year old nephew.  |
It's amazes me how trivial my "problems" become after attending a funeral. |
Dan, if you're in charge you always get the final say in the matter. |
Jamie, this is not a Walmart issue, it's an American issue. |

Now a sixth person has been convicted or pleaded guilty to charges because of the Mueller investigation.
"A federal jury on Friday found Roger Stone guilty of lying to Congress and witness tampering in relation to his work on President Trump’s 2016 campaign, which means the longtime Republican operative joins the roster of former Trump associates who ran afoul of the law as a result of Robert Mueller’s investigation into Russian election interference." The "Witch Hunt" continues. only registered users can see external links |
TWM, I think that's extortion.
It was said during the hearing today that attempted murder, attempted robbery and attempted extortion are equally illegal. |
Phart, you know the story. Don't play dumb. |
