I literally don't need to justify "my vaccine". You seem to be suffering under some delusion that I want the government to make you, or people like you, get the vaccine. You're desperate to present yourself as some victim here. The ONLY entity that needs to justify the vaccine to you, is you. And apparently it worked because you got "the jab". Lots of people have chosen not too. You can read all out them here: https://www.reddit.com/r/HermanCainAward/ Might even see someone you know. Or at the very least you'll recognize the arguments.

Psssst. Wanna know a secret? Business owners can lay you off just because they don't want/need you anymore. You can literally lose your job for no reason. That's capitalism baby. I imagine to a guy like you consequences do seem coercive. It's almost like you're confronting the fact that you can't do whatever the hell you want for the very first time. Grocery store: Stand six feet apart or leave our store. Blueadamas: I don't wanna. Airline: Wear a mask if you want to fly on our plane. Blueadams: But I don't wanna! Italy: Get vaccinated or don't come to our country. Blueadams: BUT I DON'T WANNA!!!!!

Nope. You're welcome to quit your job. A "mandate" is a law. Private companies can require all sorts of things, like dress codes, which you're welcome to disregard. You just can't keep your job if you do. Or did you think that there were no consequences to the choices you make?

You'd be famous. Imagine how many people would flock to your business once they figured out you were the guy who corrected all the world's misguided healthcare professionals and A) saved our tax money, B) defended our liberties, C) struck a massive blow to big pharma, D) reduced umemployment, and E) allowed us to travel freely again. You'd be a zillionnaire.

I'm gonna go ahead and guess that you're getting your information from the same place that told you French wasn't the official language of Quebec. But just in case you want to educate yourself I'll leave this here: https://www.nytimes.com/2021/09/27/briefing/covid-red-states-vaccinations.html Also, there is no such thing as "forced mandates". You don't have to get vaccinated and neither does anyone else.

So you've said. Since you're a big shot business owner you should take out some ad space and educate all those doctors and scientists who recommend vaccination and other remedial actions. The ones that aren't part of the conspiracy probably just hadn't thought about this. I'm skeptical though. I mean, all their information comes from medical school and their professional expertise. It's pretty suspect.

Well that's fake science for you. It's not like they can hold you down and force you to get vaccinated... mostly because they're not trying to. Or, in your case, because you already voluntarily chose to get vaccinated.

I forgot that the airlines were part of the conspiracy. And private employers too. And the Dems. And Fauci. And the Chinese. And Europe. And the U.N. And Big Pharma. And Me. This whole thing runs really deep. It's a good thing literally nobody made you.

Too much is never enough for me and my pharma bros. We plan to bleed America to death, one vaccine at a time... ...and we'll get away with it too. Unless you pesky patriots expose our big lie. Muahahahahaha

Update: I just looked in my medicine cabinet. Holy hell! I have asprin, tylenol, AND motrin. I can't believe I've been giving Big Pharma money for years to combat headaches that pose ZERO risk of death. The plot thickens...

I take a Zertec everyday for my allergies. I've been in the pockets of big pharma for years. Now that I've been given a free vaccine I'm in REALLY deep. They practically own me.

Guilty as charged. I love big pharma. I'm a pharma bro.

It's at times like these that I'm reminded of the old American revolutionary maxim, "Resistance to Tyranny is Obedience to God". Hang in there buddy.

The people I feel the worst for are you Canadians. I mean, with all your Covid restrictions I bet you feel less free by the day. What's it like living without liberty under that jackbooted autocrat Justin Trudeau? Are you coping with the repression well?

Having principles is hard sometimes.

Super duper. Listen buddy, let me make this totally clear. NOBODY is more delighted about you right wingers refusing to get vaccinated than I am. Currently about 1500 Republicans are dying in the U.S. per day. I'm willing to tolerate the overwhelmed hospitals, supply chain disruptions, etc. for quite a lot longer if it means a few million more of you guys kick the bucket. It's a free country, you don't wanna get "the jab" then don't. FWIW, Trump lost Georgia by about 12,000 votes. Currently there have been about 30K COVID deaths in that state. Any guess who the majority of those folks were gonna vote for in 2024?

Yep. As recommended by my personal doctor, the Center for Disease Control, the American Medical Association, and the World Health Association. I feel like a rube. I probably should have just listened to you instead.

I don't mind the guy, I just wouldn't make a point of targeting him in any trades with Edmonton because I think our LHD prospects are as good or better. I'm super high on Shai Buium too. Another Yzerman pick that had me scratching my head. Now he's playing like a stud in the NCAA and I'm sold. This is probably the right time to admit how wrong I was about promoting Kris Draper to Director of Amateur Scouting. I thought it was baseless nepotism but holy hell has our drafting improved in the last three years.

I don't see that in Broberg. And I think you're undervaluing certainly qualities in our prospects that you're exaulting in Broberg. Both Johansson and Wallinder are A+ skaters too, and both have shown more offense than Broberg during their respective stints in the SHL. Additionally, unlike Wallinder and Broberg, Johansson has the added advantage of being really good defensively too. Remember this from last year? Yeah, Johansson is a stud. Know who's somewhere in that mass of players who AREN'T as good as Seider and Johansson? Broberg.

Broberg is not exactly performing well at the NHL level. He's got 1 point in 8 games, has been on the ice for 8 goals against. FWIW Cholowski was actually BETTER in his first 8 NHL games, so your cautionary tale is apt (but probably not for the reasons you mentioned it). Everything notable Broberg's done to date has been in the SHL and AHL, and we have have prospects at those levels who have performed as well or better than he has. Johansson significantly outperformed Broberg in the SHL last year (at the same age) and Edvinsson and Wallinder are both currently outperforming Broberg's best SHL season at a younger age. There's really no reason to think he's a better player than any of those guys except that he was drafted higher and is in the NHL sooner. Otherwise he's never outperformed them at any level. He's probably better than Sebrango, Viro, and McIsaac though. Probably not better than Buium, though that remains to be seen.

If I drank pop I'd obviously prefer Faygo, but because I have no interest in being morbidly obese I abstain. It's a free country though, so enjoy your diabetes water.

It's "Secretary a-State" you f*cking foreigner.

They've been speaking French in Quebec since before there was even a "Canada". So I'm gonna go ahead and say it's a native tongue even if it isn't the official national language. Also: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Official_Language_Act_(Quebec)

Sure, but they're still native French speakers. I don't think it's unreasonable to want to hear about your team in your native tongue. Or at least I can understand the preference. Do I think the world would end if the Habs fired an English speaking GM/Coach? No. But I understand why they don't, and I'm sure their fans appreciate it as well.
