Can Someone Please Tell Me...

Can someone please tell me what soccer league, exactly, the newly fangled 'BC United' team plays in?

Because I checked the Canadian Premier(s) League, and I can't find them there.

Nor do I see them in the semi-pro Canadian Soccer League.

Heckfire, I can't even find them in the U11-12, Division 3, Eight-A-Side-League.

Looks like they're in the US Great Lakes Alliance (GLA). https://bculife.com/blogs/news/bc-united-joins-npls-great-lakes-alliance-for-2022-23

At least the the 2007 Girls and 2005 Boys are. No idea about the others.

Perhaps they are in an Albertan league and their Premier just wants to keep it very quite, like some of her other plans.

Perhaps they aren't playing in a league because they aren't playing with a full deck. Some of them in the B.C. United team don't always seem to be dealing with things in a professional manner and they're out of touch with the reality of this province. Perhaps there are more suitable to a starter league, for those who are learning to play, sort of like a t ball team

They must be in an amateur league, certainly not professional!
They will be out on a bottle drive to raise funds for travel to their next game, a friendly in Alberta.

Since you asked .... I can't get the BC Liberals new logo out of my mind because a vulgar slang pops into my mind.

Do I need help?

BTW .... if Kevin's party name change doesn't live up to his expectations of uniting ALL VOTERS to join him to form the next government, no oppositions, will there be another name change? and a leader

Painting the zebra's stripes still leaves a zebra. I've seen no indication that, even in matters where there might be a consensus, the opposition has done anything other than jerk its knee in abject gainsaying for the scoring of political points. A greater worry is that the spectrum of governing possibilities seems to be centered on some version of dark gray with little variation on some social benefits but with a blind and unquestioning acceptance of the orthodoxy of tradition and an unwillingness to draw together to do what's necessary to overcome some enormous hurdles faced by constituents. The Overton Window is a mere bow slit in the bastion of austerity and trickle-down economics, of allegiance to Growth and the worship at the altar of capital accumulation by whatever means. Falcon's squad has given us glimpses of the delights of privatisation, money-laundering, cronyism as well as a staggering willingness to ignore the multiple storm clouds gathering on an increasingly near horizon, and the Horgan/Eby crowd have clearly indicated that they don't intend to stray far off their own version of a similar track. A succession of governments all over the world has demonstrated a willingness to continue with business as usual, indicating clearly that they would rather play out the same old political kabuki than take active measures to build at least a simulacrum of a just and durable society.

the good old "change the name to protect the guilty" as previously done in Alberta and Saskatchewan.

Are they saving "the BC party" for their next remake?

Hey! BCU just signed NDP-free agent Harry Lali.

…so there’s that…
