HST PST Y 0 Y BC


I can't wait until the NHL season is over. Not for the hockey, which is great, but to stop the insufferable panels of "experts" from speaking. Who knew shots on goal were an important statistic?

Two jurors in the Roger Clemmens steroid trial have been sent home for sleeping. What the trial needs is a shot of some kind that could keep jurors alert and focused on the task at hand. If only there was something like this.


The NFL players association is taking the NFL to court over the bounty scandal saying the NFL did not have the authority to make the suspensions. The NFLPA believes the scandal occurred before the latest collective bargaining agreement and is not subject to the "obviously should be illegal" clause in the new agreement.

Calgary Flames fans are excited by the success of Daryl Sutter and the LA Kings and hope to hold a parade if he was to win the Cup. The parade will be short, have blindfolds and a traditional western lynching of the executive, followed by a pancake breakfast.

A BC couple was given $8000 by a BC court when it was determined their health was compromised by second hand smoke. The court says t was to be expected to have cigarette and marijuana smoke in the complex but the burning of Roberto Luongo fan membership cards was "cruel and unusual".

B.C. will drop the HST and return to an "improved" PST next year with all previous exemptions, Finance Minister Kevin Falcon announced on Monday in Victoria. The idea of replacing an old idea with a new one that is the same is not considered a slight of hand but more an homage to Canucks off season moves.

Police in BC are concerned recent Cougar sightings are a sign of bigger problems. The Cougars are relentless, aggressive and are often seen around hockey arenas, usually on off game Jr. Hockey days.
