Bring back Dallas Brodie! Haha.

I think rustad will challenge this in court. He's a stubborn bugger.

The party leaned on the bylaw that says the leader can only be removed in this manner if they are "incapacitated". I could see him challenging that.

There's nobody who can lead that party. As rustad liked to called it, "one big circus tent" of ex-liberals and MAGAs.

Just bring up a few videos of him speaking at press conferences and it would be pretty easy to argue that.

More bad news for BC's forestry industry:

https://vancouver.citynews.ca/2025/1...350-jobs-lost/

A pulp mill on Vancouver Island is permanently ending operations, the latest mill to close in the province, affecting around 350 employees.

Domtar says in a statement that continued poor pricing for pulp and lack of access to affordable fibre in British Columbia necessitates the closure of its pulp mill in Crofton.

Domtar says it is exploring “a variety of possibilities” for the future of the site.

B.C. Forests Minister Ravi Parmar calls the closure “gut-wrenching for workers” in a statement and says the forest sector is facing pressures from volatile markets, low pulp prices, shrinking fibre, climate-driven wildfires, conservation measures, and U.S. duties and tariffs.

Meanwhile, the Opposition Conservatives are calling for Parmar to resign, saying in a statement that the closure is a clear sign that B.C.’s coastal forest sector is collapsing.

Last month, West Fraser Timber announced that it would permanently close its lumber mill in 100 Mile House with about 165 jobs by the end of 2025.

Softwood lumber tariffs are killing our forestry sector. It's all because of Cheeto! :mad:

From my boilermaker friend who works at a mill:

There are 2 more mills that are at a stalemate with their contract negotiations.

Words on the street is that if the unions try to push through with the new contract those mill will also shutdown immediately in the current economic environment.

It will be a collapse of our forestry if that happens.

Unions. Nice. :drunk:

If only all unions were like the fuckin port authority... the only enterprise on this earth I can think of where cretins make crazy money doing the dumbest of dumb-dumb work and somehow it's never been questioned or toppled.

Well isn't it the same as Canada post?

The thing is the port makes money. You can’t really fight for money that doesn’t exist. You aren’t going to convince a company to operate at a loss for your wages.
Doesn’t really apply to Canada post though as it’s a government service, not a private corporation.

o herrow. :alone:

Wasn't sure what cretons were so the Google search yield the following:
Cretons, a minced pork pâté, is a breakfast staple for many French Canadians in parts of Quebec.

Badhobz is French Canadian.

There's even a LARGE..... way too large.. and yes even 1 is too much, but we're talking LARGE contingent of younger males who fantasize about her and talk about how MILFy she is. Super gross.

Yo, what?!

My BIL is the union president for the mill in Gibsons, and he says the same issues.

For one, most of our mills are mostly Chinese owned now (Domtar for example). So it's not like we really "own" our industry anymore anyways.

Sad thing is you get the diehards in the union down the ladder that push for stuff that isn't viable from a fiscal perspective for the company, it ends up being a "cut your nose off to spite your face" scenario where the CBA essentially turfs the company, they close shop, everyone loses.

You don't want to dive into the right wing Alberta young men side of X, just leave it at that.

we were the same with crusty Clark when she was Christy

This is akin to all the guys flocking to the ONE girl in the car scene even though outside of that realm she's a fucking 6/10 at best. But because it's such a sausage fest and you're starved for options, you see her as a 8-9 out of 10.

Yucky she literally looked like a circus clown.
^ that’s like the airport 10. She’s a 6 in regular life but you just want to spend your flight beside her instead of the dude that they need to load on with a crane.

Hahahaha the stupid just never stops:
