GA Russell Posted September 20, 2021 Author Report Posted September 20, 2021 Today is Election Day in Canada, and we will soon know the results. I would like to make a small prediction. There are five established federal parties, and all five support the idea of a vaccine passport. There is a new party called the PPC which is the only one opposed. The PPC was not allowed to participate in the debates, and has been pretty much ignored by the media. The polls show them at 6%. I predict that the PPC will do much better than 6% because they will not have to share the anti-vaxx-mandate voters with anyone else. Quote
GA Russell Posted September 21, 2021 Author Report Posted September 21, 2021 (edited) Well; there's a reason I don't make a living as a political analyst! Not all the votes have been counted, but this Parliament will be very, very similar to the last one. The PPC got 5% of the vote (up from 1.6% two years ago), and won no seats. The Bloc Quebecois got 6% of the vote, and won 29 seats. The Liberals have won 153 seats, and will form another minority government. The absentee ballots will be counted tomorrow, so the final numbers may change a little bit. Edited September 21, 2021 by GA Russell Quote

GA Russell Posted October 8, 2021 Author Report Posted October 8, 2021 (edited) On Wednesday, Prime Minister Trudeau announced that the "unvaccinated" would not be allowed to travel by plane, train or bus. It looks like the policy will begin Dec. 1. For CFL players, that means the Eastern, Western and Grey Cup Finals. This may be a problem for teams playing on the road. I can imagine that the eastern teams might carpool to the games, but the western teams might not be able to do that. As mentioned in an earlier gossip column, some teams might just cut the guys who will not get the jab. This year's Grey Cup Final will be in Hamilton. https://www.tsn.ca/restrictions-on-unvaccinated-travellers-could-affect-cfl-division-finals-grey-cup-1.1703149 https://3downnation.com/2021/10/06/unvaccinated-cfl-players-will-be-ineligible-for-air-travel-as-of-oct-30/ ***** Toronto 35....Ottawa 16 https://www.cfl.ca/games/6169/ottawa-redblacks-vs-toronto-argonauts/ https://www.cbc.ca/sports/football/cfl/cfl-toronto-argonauts-ottawa-redblacks-recap-oct-6-1.6202713 https://3downnation.com/2021/10/07/redblacks-blunders-prove-costly-nine-other-thoughts-on-losing-to-toronto/ The Argos remain undefeated at home. Not an interesting game, but many interesting plays. Two blocked punts returned for touchdowns! Also, two third-quarter pick-sixes! Here are the highlights. https://www.cfl.ca/games/6169/ottawa-redblacks-vs-toronto-argonauts/#videos The younger brother of Caleb Evans is a student at the Houston high school where there was a shooting Wednesday. Fortunately, he was never in any danger. ***** Week 10 picks https://rileysportsblog.wordpress.com/2021/10/06/2021-cfl-week-10-predictions/ Edited October 8, 2021 by GA Russell Quote
