      1. Kenji,
        you buying from LLBean now? I just saw a product review on their website that looked like it might have been yours. Merry Christmas and best wishes to you and yours from the Free State of Wyoming.

        1. Ha. Nope. No LL Bean purchases … not that I’m opposed to that. Was there a snarky, sarcastic, review?

    2. Because Canada has so much in the way of training resources that they can afford the distraction of ‘pairs’ that won’t be able to compete internationally, of course. Non-binary teams worked out so well at the recent NHL transgender tournament.

        1. To be fair, the “hit” (if you can call it that) was more incidental contact, and accidental, than anything else. It’s just that the “female” was so much bigger and stronger than the “male,” that… well, you can guess the rest.

  4. Sow cow = Bull Boar? Or Boar Steer?

    I don’t know what a double lutz is but it just got 5% dirtier.

      1. I just had a horrible image of a trans-male doing an overhead lift of a trans-female.

        (Actually, that would be fun to watch! Hey… there may be a niche market for this perversion after all!)

  7. I won’t be watching. I will also continue to boycott advertisers who try to shove this woke BS down my throat.

    1. They will win, based solely on them being two dudes, no matter how well or badly they perform. Any other criteria would be hatefull discrimination and homophobia and besides, the judges would be afraid to score them according the the merits of their performance.

  9. I have been carrying a satiric non-fiction essay in my head the past 10 years. The essa6 would make fun of Skate Csnada where they, in my imaginary world, allows same-sex couples into skating competitions. Well, it looks like that dreaded time has come. Yech.

    1. Yup.
      It has more than touched western civilization, it has ruined it, on every level.
      Easy to do when the populace is a bunch of coward Karens.
      Now put on your seat belt, helmet, and rat out your neighbor for charging an e-bike battery or storing a gun in an “unsafe” manner.

    2. if we ever have history books that tell history anymore, it will be told how a group of two or three hackers made the western world look like fools. the emperor has no clothes writ large.

  13. “…as recession edges closer. ”

    Closer to what?
    The first quarter of the recession? Midterm?

  14. And if a same sex couple wins the Canadian championship, will they be allowed to compete at the world championship? We certainly hope so. Yes indeed, Canada is definitely back on the world stage. I know because the Dear Leader said so.

    1. It doesn’t matter to Skate Canada. Remember that Canada is post-national, winning is not an objective.

      1. Skate Canada doesn’t matter to me except for the tax dollars that get frittered their way. The judging scandal of years ago when the Canadian competition judge got suspended for blowing up the cozy little scam the monied class had been running for years ended any interest.

    1. It is extremely difficult to maintain your sanity as the world descends into collective madness so it is probably you as well.

  19. Things like the arts and sport have very specific fan bases.. I think its good that they suffer under the yoke of their own politics..

  20. NBC must be in panic-mode right about now. They don’t want this to spread beyond Canada.
    Figure skating is the bread-winning jewel of their multi-billion-dollar Winter Olympic coverage. Their entire Olympic (Winter) empire is paid for by prime-time airing of skating to American’s suburban mothers. If it goes woke then they go broke.

    (NBC knows. They own the MSNBC train-wreck. Its okay to break a tiny cable channel. It is NOT okay to threaten the big mother ship)

    1. I enjoy pointing out that the Hallmark Channel gets higher ratings than The CW every night in every time slot, and that it’s an unspoken rule that there are no rainbow characters[1] or visible minorities in any Hallmark production. Well, they started to loosen that rule and one of their big draws, Candace Cameron-Bure, announced she was leaving the network to start her own production company focused on Hallmark-esque Christian movies. This will split the viewership and likely do significant damage to Hallmark.

      The deplorables stubbornly refuse to watch what their betters want them to watch, so their betters will simply wreck anything the deplorables do watch.

      [1] Although the last season of Chesapeake Shores did have a bluehaired non-binary tween supporting character for a couple of episodes. She’s depicted as a two-faced mean girl with parents who look like a 4Chan meme, and the moral of her story arc is “sometimes people who seem exotic and interesting and are pretending to be your friends are just nasty little b*tches”

  21. I want to see to a 6ft 7in defensive lineman and a dwarf team up. Just think of the height on the throws.

  22. And our taxes will continue to fund this and endless other useless endeavors.
    How much have we spent on soccer for a couple of goals and no wins?

  25. I’m going to abstain until Peter Dinklage and Warwick Davis take the ice. I’ll watch that. Take it in…then go on a rant about Dwarf tossing.

  27. Now if they just make performance-enhancing drugs compulsory, Canada will have caught up to where the East Germans were forty years ago.

  28. Another reason I like car sports, gears, not queers! Tho I detest gay bashing, this is reDICKulASS!

  29. So, are we going to see one big, strong guy paired with a much smaller one….or are they just going to do away with lifts altogether?

  31. Trudeau was wrong. The world does not need “more Canada”…..at least not a Canada as he promotes it. The truth is, Canada itself is a tranny: all dressed up faking something it is not, that being a serious country. The real world sees right through the whiskers sticking out of
    our cheap pancake makeup. What is Canada? Anything you want it to be, just give us enough time to find the appropriate costume and promise you’ll like us. This is the Canada we now know. We’ve been recast in the image of Justin Trudeau: shallow, inept, not dependable, always waffling, corrupt to the core and above all, totally irrelevant. Our betters in eastern Canada thought Don Cherry was too brash and he was thoroughly cancelled. If Don Cherry was representative of a different era and way of thinking, the “progress” in progressivism should never be considered as something positive.

  32. Bureaucrats do what bureaucrats will do.
    They will come up with the most bizarre bullshit and institute it.
    Of course, it is the idiot politicians that will encourage them.
    When you tell them that it is completely stupid, they usually just shrug it off.
    It’s the regulations, they say.
    As if the damn regulations got there on their own.

    It’s a damn sport, if you don’t like the way it is, go sell shoes or clean latrines or something.

  34. We stumble ever closer to reality projecting the ultimate CanCult TV drama : A Saskatchewan lobster farmer struggles with how his livelihood impacts the environment. At the same time, he faces an ongoing battle with the local school board over the funding of the local high school opera club, which he directs. Meanwhile, his Metis wife faces her own hurdles in finding a publisher for her three-volume biography of the great surveyors of Saskatchewan. But, his biggest struggle is with his brother. A former figure skating champion, he slips further and further into despondency with each rejection letter from the RCMP academy, possibly dashing his dreams of being a mounted policeman.

  35. It is amazing how suicidal the Western World has become. One has to wonder how government became so overrun with utter and complete morons. It really is time to object strenuously to everything the woke f***kers implement.

  36. Serious Question: The international governing body has not yet caught up to Canada’s “enlightened” definition of “Team” skaters. It will be interesting to see how a “team” on the “podium pathway” will qualify in international competitions.

    Who watches Figure Skating anyway? If I can stop watching major-league professional (woke) sports, this is certainly not going to be a substitute. Let them have their little Ice Dance party. I’ve got far more important issues on my radar.

  39. I always felt there was less interest in watching brother and sister skaters in pairs or dancing, two men or two women is the absolute end for me.
    How long before we will have no gender ID’s……oh, wait…..
