    the CBC are telling me JT was " 9 yrs in power " SO it was about power, it was a game

    so why get in the game if you don't intend to play the game ?

    but that power would also speak to the leader controling their party

    they are not singing Kumbayay down east in Ottawa

    ... and our successful quest for world dominance continues quietly. Lets not forget James Crawford Hannenkamm win (only the premier ski race in the world). Well played Grinch my friend, hope you're well mate.

    Ah right. Major edition being a ski forum and all.
    I'll add in Jackson Goldstone with 3 world cup dh wins in a row, Gracey Hemstreet with a first world cup win for a canadian women, Elly Hoskins first world cup enduro win for a canadian women as well.
    All things considered i guess i can't complain G. Plotting my escape to the west is going ok.
    Hope youre well and rockin lots of gigs

    Is it wrong to be more impressed with Finn Iles Whistler Cup win than any of his bike victories?
    That being said once he's healthy and the way Jackson is going the french may as well stay home.

    Man, if i could ride like any of them i'd pick Finn. Sickest style IMO. Supremely talented. Good kid, good family, puts in the work, can ride anything top level. I can't put him on my fantasy team though. The kids chainstays keep getting longer and his bars still stay too low. Fine for railing berms but pretty much everyone of his crashes he's too far over the front and can't recover when things go sideways in the steep, rough or wet rock. I can't bare to watch at this point

    Hey Grinch, hope you are well. Man, how i wish my kid had been at UNB after you moved back east and not before. Would have been cool having a pint at Picaroons or thrashing some low angle brush. FWIW, I love seeing Canada infiltrate the NBA. Not technically Canadian, but i loved watching "Spicy P", NBA champion and former Toronto Raptor, try to win it for the Pacers.

    Ya that wouldve been cool. Somehow we've managed to scrape together some fun skiing and now a few ok biking spots. Re aquanted with cold "alpine lager" after saturdays ride. Ive enjoyed a few of the craft ales they have here but that was the first of my old stand by. Its a rare occasion but i think now with some ok ski/bike spots ill enjoy more apres.
    Where are you now? And where is the grom? One day here or in the future out west we'll have to get out for a day of left and rights
    I just saw that nba, nhl, nlb stat on insta. Thought it was cool to hear after the recent cycling successes being a hot topic. I couldnt name them now.I used to follow the league sports but i dont even watch hockey these days

    Might as well throw in Marcus Goguen when discussing Canadians taking over the sports world.

    Hope you dont have to go to any stores today, because nothing will be open.

    I just tried to hit the bakery but they were closed early for the fête du canada.

    maybe we are sliding into a happy middle ground.

    Nothing, except only a few gas stations, was open on July 1st, 2022 in the greater Fredericton, NB area. We needed to buy a hex wrench set. We couldn't even find one at a truck stop Irving on the highway.

    To be fair the sidewalks roll up at 6pm most every night and only recently the beer stores were opened on sundays. Before that it was the 24hr irving for a lot of things and the bootlegger on the reserve for sunday beers. One house on the reserve even bought empties and sold cold beer

    Now that was funny.
    Never in U.S. history has the public chosen leadership this malevolent. The moral clarity of their decision is crystalline, particularly knowing how Trump will regard his slim margin as a “mandate” to do his worst. We’ve learned something about America that we didn’t know, or perhaps didn’t believe, and it’ll forever color our individual judgments of who and what we are.

    I’ve taken frequent trips back and forth to Nelson, using the #1 then heading south at Revy. That strip of Hwy between Sicamous and Revy is nuts. No matter the plate colour. At least after Salmon Arm to ‘loops is alright - all the nuts are back and forth between points east and the Okanagan/Shuswap.
