  1.  

    That playing till some one scored was only in the playoffs, regular season games that were tied at the end of regulation were just that, a tie, game over , with 1 point going to each team.

    And still a much better system IMO.

     

    10 min 3 on 3, no points for the loser. Just a regular loss. Then much more games will be decided in regular time, I'd bet money on it.

     

    Why should anyone get a point for making it to OT anyhow? Like I said before it's just an "everyone deserves a trophy" approach.

     

    The standings are rediculous now. The point system breakdown in absurd.

     

    Listening to the broadcasters near the playoffs is like listening to politician try and skirt around a question.

     

    Well there is 9000 variables here in the next 3 games to figure out who makes it and who plays who? Rediculous

  2.  

     

    The PA is the one thats not allowing this. It has nothing to do with the NHL not wanting it. They tried and the PA shot it down.

    Yeah it's the same excuse, fear of increased injury.

     

    Nannies. Remember when it wasn't over until someone scored? I remember watching a game that started at 6 or 7pm go until around 1am, maybe even longer I'm not sure?

     

    When hockey players played hockey...

     

    Those players are now the minority unfortunately

  3. The shoot out was fun, yeah fun, for about 1 season. Basically it drew people to watch as players showcased rediculous moves.

     

    Then everyone realized there is waaaày less pressure and a better chance of scoring by shooting. You hardly see a deque now.

     

    But yeah, I agree, never should have been a shout-out. Save if for the all Star game.

     

    Also the NHL needs to adapt bills rule lol, 10 min. 3 on 3

  4. Embarrassing

    You do realize the resources the OPP work with right? Do you propose a police state?

     

    Stolen vehicles are hardly on the high priority list. These aren't violent crimes. And resources are limited, all sorts of jurisdiction issues and beaurocracy etc.

     

    Yeah it sucks but someone went missing or was raped, your vehicle isn't necessarily high on the list of things to solve.

  5. How about we just send in new trucks with the keys in them to save them the trouble. Fully gassed of course.

    Silly nilly.

     

    I'm sure the OPP can buy a fleet of brand new trucks set up with those auto lock disable things in them, on tax payers dollars nonetheless

  6. I guess if you don't want your truck stolen just have to hang one of those dream catchers from the drivers mirror, they probably don't steal from there own..I know a dozen or more people from here in Niagara that had there trucks stolen mostly Chev's and the ones found were at the rez.

    Hahaha nope. These thief's don't follow the creator. Probably more likely to steal a vehicle with a dream catcher in the rear view

     

    Also, what does others think can be done? Send in the military???

     

    F&A is just being realistic.

  7. Not outsmarting. Playing politics and whenever they are confront the escalate to the point where public safety is compromised. I can tell you that my life and those on the roads are more important than stopping someone in your car.

    Yep!

     

    And they obviously use this tactic to their advantage

     

    Makes it very hard for police to do their jobs in many cases

     

    You see it here too. High speed chase through town and the cops quickly back off

     

    Lotsa theirs use this crazy method. No value on a human life for a hardcore criminal

  8.  

    I dont think folks in southern Ontario truly understand the plight of the north. Specifically as it pertains to the rezs.

     

    The rez's and crap in southern Ontario are highly civilized places with lots of money, infrastructure and services near by.

     

    Im from Flin Flon, when you take the bus from Winnipeg you go to the land where the Rez's dont have names, they are simply numbers placed in the forest somewhere amongst the muskeg. The closest grocery store is a 5 hour drive. They are so far removed there isnt even a car to steal to try make a living.

     

    That my friends is the real deal.

     

    Also if folks from the GTA think the gang violence and crap is bad in Toronto? Go to Winnipeg...those guys would make any of the gangsta's in Toronto quiver in fear.

    Yep

     

    I used to drive through numerous of these rezs on my way to work. We're bring bottle of water, bread and medicine for the children playing barefoot on the dirt roads, barely clothed in February.

     

    Sneakers hung over power cables indicating the super high suicide rates.

     

    And Winnipeg akri, that's why I said if you go to the north end bring a 50 cal. No lie youll get killed in broad daylight for wearing the wrong colours. Your right, no Toronto gangster would even stand a chance.

     

    They can't even get accurate murder rates in Winnipeg because no one ever gets found, well a few in the river but...

     

    Thundeebay is quickly becoming a very dangerous place too in certain areas.

     

    I'm telling ya it's like these guys and girls, were trained in Medellin columbia

  9. F&A that's gnarly! I've been through some bad rezs but never like what's being described here.

     

    Be safe out there!

     

    Also, no Rez is as bad as the north end of Winnipeg. If you go please bring a 50 cal

  10. I don't know why it's going to "piss a lot of people off" it was an honest question and deserves to be answered in a respectful manner. Perhaps the "Exhaust all options" approach is a better solution, shouldn't the ultimate outcome of any program be corrective rather than just punitive?

    I'm referring to the negotiated laws cliff.

     

    Because to many it will seem incredibly unfair. But it is a great question, thats why I answered it honestly and sincerely.

     

    I think "exhaust all options" is great personally, but it doesn't benefit me or you. So alot of people may get upset over that.

     

    I could give a 100 examples to show what I'm saying is true.

     

    But the fact is, someone negotiated a better deal for aboriginals, than immigrant Canadians and or the generations of land locked Canadian citizens

  11. Cliff, it get a little crazy if you know the treaties. Yeah this post is gonna piss alot of people off.

     

    Basically, treaties were signed and in many cases not honoured.

     

    As part of a reconciliation for this, the 60s swoop and residential schools, an understanding was met amongst the queen, our government and Aboriginal peoples of Canada.

     

    The terms negotiated involved a "exhaust all options" approach.

     

    So yeah, if You do the exact same crime as an Aboriginal person in Canada, you will serve a harsher sentence.
