Maybe they should stick to their core business of gouging the public for ***** service!

So where is this guy? 2 weeks in and he hasn't held a press conference yet introducing himself.

This is how it goes when things get leaked before it happens "officially".

Quote from: TecnoGenius on April 09, 2025, 08:19:50 AMUh, I got news for you... and the gov doesn't have to infiltrate in order to get what they want out of the media. How much did a certain party hand out to Canadian media again? If you haven't noticed the turn CFL took about 8 years ago, I'm not sure what to say. Continue as you were.

Man, I completely made up that part of my post trying to make a point and apparently it already falls under your conspiracy purview.

I'll go stick my head back in the sand while you work at 3 am to continue to unearth the real truth.

On a relevant note, are we going to refer to him as Stew-Jo?

Officially announced on CFL.ca April 2nd, the way things are dragging seems like almost 2 weeks ago!

Maybe, just don't refer to him as a PNG.
