Chum (dog salmon) were canned to feed our dogs in the winter, unless we could get an aboriginal relative to smoke or dry it. It's been so long though that I would gleefully enjoy a piece of pink salmon. And the thought of sockeye right now is pure fish porn. drat, now I have the munchies. Someone post that moving gif of Stevie so I can lose my appetite.

colonel_korn posted:ah the eldredge, truly the fedora of knots. This comparison is unjust to fedoras. There was a time when many people wore such hats, and quite a few of them even looked good in them. Maybe someone will even succeed at bringing them back (hopefully after MRAs have gone extinct.) That knot is poo poo, has always been poo poo, and will always be poo poo. Someone who wears a fedora might look like a virgin. Someone who wears a knot like that looks like there's at least one woman out there who wishes he still was.

Utgardaloki posted:ugh he hosed that knot up bad. yeah I gotta agree, I have a couple friends that has used that knot for special occasions and they wore it well. I feel it is one of those knots that when the situation calls for it and you tie it properly it will look good. I feel the same about fedoras since I was required to wear one as part of an outfit for a theatre production. When you wear it and it fits your face, your body, and you have a matching suit to go with it it will look good. But again, it's not something you wear every. Single. Day.

infernal machines posted:Yeah, he was on the news the other day. Some conservative press conference in Etobicoke. Nope, just busy doing stuff. I haven't had the time to check the thread given speed the subforum moves at. Was a little sad Tactical PM with the Lee did not become a Reddit/Goon thing. Since most of the last few pages are caught up on cult of personality vs. critical thinking about specific party planks & executive experience there is not much to actually refute or argue. eh? On the photo of the guy and his funky tie: To be fair, when I first saw his matte photo, I thought the knot was very unique and he was proud of that photo, so whatever. What would you put in your profile photo? an ironic Gap pink-oxford herringbone & orange bowtie? Would it be it too progressive to wear a Russian over-under to the Paris climate summit ? How about a Cravat like Silvio used to wear to the EU? When are we going to talk about #hairgate ? Dying to hear a few guys check their Hair Privileges. I need a good 6 days of material to shitstorm while I'm on the road. On the general election apathy and poll numbers: I may be biased but every Goon in the thread should be out supporting their 'poison of choice' this election vs f9'ing the thread. If you did think this was a boring election filled with zilch turnout, shoe-in 3rd stringers, preconceived notions of standing at press events, cold community halls (with lukewarm coffee) and listening to unwashed neckbeards compare your guy to 'Liberally Hitler', you would be wrong. The tech being deployed is right up there with a US election. Most of it is homebrew. Nose Hill will likely have a bigger impact on not just how the LPC manages their branding/nominees going forward. Very few people 55+ know how to use Nationbuilder let alone manage the "twitter machine". So if you are a goon, and always wanted to "do" vs reposting Globe & Mail oped's, now is a great time to get on the ground floor. Mulcair is so understaffed they have to resort to paying people to pretend to be volunteers, 8/hr. LPC and a few CPC downtown ridings are not much better. If this was a USA election, say Hillary's, a time sheet would lock you at 3 hours a week on an interviewed internship. Some junior ridings you could walk in, build a desk and take ownership of a riding facet; be it relations with a special focus group (ESL) or just captaining a position team (sign drops). About 80% of those who signed up in June are pretty much lock-in's for post-election hires. Even if you are gainfully employed, secure in your lifestyle and still able to balance a white collar career + posting on SA at 300 posts a day, you just may meet some great people who are also 'feeling out' this election cycle.

eXXon posted:How about just stop creating stupid tax credits and implement a GMI already? Might be an attempt to counter veterans' anger at budget cuts, which like you say is playing to the base. I'd put money on them sticking to the old game plan: stick with the base, suppress the rest. It's worked well before, hopefully not this time though.

Eh tax credits can be just another mechanism for implementing social programs (like, for example, Quebec's solidarity tax credit, which is just a straight up social transfer). So long as they're not a "more income -> higher credit" sort of deal, they can be a way to implement programs that the bureaucracy understands and can easily work with. A GMI could be implemented as a tax credit. A negative income tax is a tax credit.

Tax credits can be good, but they're usually just a way to attract certain groups of voters. Hm, I'm old, white, a member of the legion, and like money. Let's vote Harper.
