O, Canada - all your canuck news worth sharing!

There’s that, and the fact that, although leading questions like this can make for scientific surveys, they only do so if you probe the same topic space with leading questions from other points of view. Then you can determine how firmly held some of these attitudes really are. (There’s also the question of how relevant this particular topic is to assessing Aeroplan’s customer base.)

Interesting. Sounds along the lines of the Invisibilia episode I heard most of Sunday (as I tried to find any store other than Wal-mart open. Spoiler: I didn’t)

Same thing as Robert Dzemicki. Airport staff gave him such a horrendous runaround, he was trying to get the police involved.

You are talking about Dziekański, right?

That was a clusterfuck from start to finish. Starting with the airport staff and ending with “let’s make the enquiry recommendations non-binding.”

Throw in what we now know about the police spokesperson at that time and… yeah, clusterfuck is about the only word. And then they wonder why no one trusts them anymore.

Yes, my bad.

And agree about the clusterfuck.

Just wanted to be sure. For all I know there is another case involving someone named Dzemicki. It’s not like things have been improving.

First the Ontario Provincial Tories, now this (although “this” would have happened first, chronologically speaking).

And despite all this BS there are lots of people lined up to vote for them.

And in provincial news, this shining light who ran for the PC party leadership has joined the very exclusive “too disgusting for Doug Ford” club.

Oh America…

You want to do a movie about our most horrible mayor and you WRITE OUT THE WOMAN WHO BROKE THE STORY?

/sigh

This should also go in Feminism too shouldn’t it. Mother fuckers…

Robin Doolittle took her fucking life in her hands chasing this story! And wrote a book about it! And won awards! But sure, lets just write her out completely… fucking hell… I’m going back to bed.

But it’s an amalgamated character, you see. An amalgamation of the woman who did all the work… and that guy, over there. Frank. Fred? Fred. Right. Of her and my good man Fred here, so since it’s an amalgamation of people of both sexes, it might as well be a man. Right, Fred?

His name is Kevin (Donovan), and he got sidetracked because he was doing research on what would become the Jian Ghomeshi story.

Right? Like my god, this is so gross!
I hope Kevin and Robin get a lot of good press from this!
