| Her whole point is that if she slipped in the shower or something else happed to cause injury while on the trip she would be compensated, regardless that the sex wasn't part of her "duies" while on said trip. Personally, I think she's just after a bit of a free ride and can't see that she ... |

I'll have to check but I believe in Alberta it's law to wear one if your under 16 or if your an adult riding in traffic, but if your over 16 and not riding on roads your exempt.
I always wear one, any hit to the head can cause severe injury and I have fallen off a bike and hit my head (with helmet on) |

| NO GOVERNMENT $ for any pro sports team...... I'd say the same if they were blowing the same horn for the saddledome, if a team that makes millions in profit every year for their owners and stars can't dig up the funds themselves then tough. Every year here there's people complaining about the lack ... |

| If you don't care about the violence, then go talk about hockey or some other stupid thing. Ahem, my cousins husband was thrown off a hotel in Winnipeg by bikers over a drug debt in the early 90's, so yes I care about the violence, maybe more some and less than others, and I also talk about hockey,... |

| Another plug for your stance Curt? While I agree with you it's getting old. Also regardless, I do believe that the bikers would find some other way to make their $ and still be fighting it out, most of these gangs didn't start up as drug movers. They are into prostitution, run strip clubs, paid secu... |

$1: and maybe its his own odd way of protesting Muslim/Sikh head gear
It's his way of showing how bending to every group and special interest for no reason other than personal prefernace is rediculous. |

I for one would rather see any mayor avoiding spectacles like these ones, let him choose where his time ... |
