La Fiole du Pape Chateauneuf du Pape.  A French wine that comes in a pre-distressed, "dusty" bottle.  Kinda like the wine version of distressed jeans.

That's kinda like this one. At like $45 CAD it's extremely mediocre and largely marketed by the distressed bottle and fancy region

I think for the people involved that's a feature not a bug.

Back when I took intro to Canadian politics in university my prof described the Liberals as a big red election machine, and it seems to ring true 25 years later.

I just returned from a playground just like this with my kid. There were at least three languages spoken there and it was packed with kids.

Looking at the communities in question, I think the common characteristic of the ones that don't "fit" is that they include a small population relative to a large job/business. Meadowlark has Chinook and a bunch of single family. Seton has the hospital, the power centre and a developing res base.

Looks just like the braised brisket noodle at Koya in Bankers Hall in Calgary. It's pretty good for a downtown food court.

I saw a camo chest freezer at Sears a while back, so I'm sure this exists.

Homebuilder in Calgary. His company has historic beeves with Nenshi and is pretty connected to local conservative politics.

Is there a revised non-residential estimated tax rate yet?

These statements aren't conflicting, at least in their eyes. We have to understand that fundamental to their worldview is that people are not equal. So in their eyes Trudeau drove away people (good), and let in people (bad). You can guess what sorts of people make up each group.

I sang in choirs throughout my teens and twenties and miss it. Once my kids are a bit older I'm hoping to get back to it.

Same here. My dad was Australian and never became a Canadian citizen, although he worked, owned property and paid taxes here for decades. But that's not what they're talking about because he was white, English speaking and Christian.

This smells like an op to me. It's too cute, too much "how do you do fellow kids" energy.

I think the crux is that they don’t want be called Nazis (pejorative), they want to be Nazis (laudative).

This is clearly Nenshi’s fault.

I cannot understand how any of my fellow Albertans can look at the current mess in the US and think β€œyeah, I’d like some of that.” My mind boggles.
