is this a cynical attempt to make political hay out of alluding to what has been said of Kinew’s past?

The PCs have done this for years, so it's an understandable instinct.

That said...I'm not convinced that there isn't a little fire beneath the smoke. The 2023 altercation was inconclusive. I just don't know.

It could be a case study for Portage & Main.

Toronto @ Montreal

Once again, I saw a bit of this one live, and caught the highlights for the rest. This Winnipegger is never going to be upset about watching the Argos lose.

Montreal looked very well put-together. I've got to agree with the officials on the Arbuckle "forward pass" - there didn't seem to be an eligible receiver anywhere near that ball. Toronto's O Line was a bit of a disaster.

That one Toronto TD was great, though - love the effort.

Ugh, I barely engage with the Endeavor System, so I'm not 100% sure.

I think New Who has definitely danced on the razor's edge, getting by with narrative shortcuts as long as the emotional resonance lands. And when a story doesn't land with you, those shortcuts are very visible.

I actually do like the small bits of exploration of the a Timeless Child that RTD has done using it to inform the Doctor's personality in new ways. It would be great to see a Jo Martin story or something like that, though.

Trying another "Flux"-type season could be interesting too - sort of a hybrid between the old serials and more modern episodes. Hell, the eight-episode seasons are practically begging for it.

All good - I love the Mastodon engagement, even though it's kind of awkward.

It's a pretty pedestrian-heavy area. It's probably justified.

The TARDIS materializes in 1990s San Francisco.

Billie Piper stumbles out, is shot almost immediately, regenerates into Paul McCann.

taxpayer per unit of road ratio

I'm a big fan of this metric. Easy to understand, hard to argue with.

Just a quick snooze!

Personally, I'm quite certain that the answer is some version of Option 2. There will be a break - maybe a long one - but the show ultimately isn't going anywhere.

That's definitely the case when they use a "volume" AR wall, which I know they used during Season 1. Since the CGI environment is projected live behind the actors, it all has to be prepped in advance of filming.

From what I've seen of "Unleashed," though, they've also been using a lot of old-fashioned green screen.

I'm sure more details will emerge, but:

Under the legislation, someone who is certified or licensed to perform specific skilled work in a province or territory that wants to take on a job doing the same thing for a federally regulated project will be deemed to have met that federal standard.

The government says recognizing provincial standards will open up job opportunities to workers and give employers a larger candidate pool to draw upon.

The bill only recognizes provincial standards at the federal level. Workers certified or licensed in one province that want to work in another will only be able to do so when that province or territory agrees to drop their trade barriers.

The federal government has rules and standards for businesses on top of regional requirements that apply across provincial and territorial borders.

Under the legislation, provincial standards for goods and services will be recognized as having already met federal standards. That means a province's organic standards for food, or energy efficiency standards for appliances, will be treated as having met federal standards.

If we were to assign each poster to an episode - and I don't know if we should, or if it's more about vibes - here are my guesses.

"Through the Lens of Time"

"Wedding Bell Blues"

"A Space Adventure Hour"

"Terrarium"

"Shuttle to Kenfori"

How about the PMO?

Oh wow, it goes deeper than I realized.

Regardless of which name Edmonton fans prefer, former players Chris Morris, now the team’s president and CEO, and Ed Hervey, now general manager, have brought back the franchise motto: “Once an Esk-mo, Always an Esk-mo.”

A sign bearing the slogan has been restored above the entrance to the Elks’ locker room.

I only caught a small bit of the game live, but I just watched the TSN highlight reel.

The tribute to Chase Stegall was unexpected, but nice.

If the Riders can get healthy, they really could be a force to be reckoned with.

It's hard to tell from what I saw, but the Redblacks didn't look terrible to me. Their run game seemed pretty strong.

The CFL 110 podcast says they expect a lot of parity across the league this year, so we could be in for some nail-biters.

I didn't realize the name change had gone over so badly.

All the games would be great, though even this many should be good for the league.

Yeah, the Canadaland piece was mentioned, but not linked.
