THE SIGN GIVES THE SCOOP – The sign for the new Dairy Queen outlet off Range Road in Whitehorse went up over the Easter weekend. It has been 15 years since local residents saw the former DQ on Second Avenue close down.

Seen some laurels about Wendy's. Do you know why we don't have a Wendy's. It was looked into in thee past, but for the same reasons we can't have Arby's (who cares), we can't have Wendy's and that is, how do you get fresh beef 2700 km north like every 48-72 hours? Yes I am aware there are more proximal livestock suppliers, just not Wendy's or Arby's sized suppliers. They didn't see the ROI.

Can't wait for Blizzard and a decent burger. Nice to go somewhere other than downtown too, that place is a urine laced drugden of inequity.

Hmmm...public health overlords say germs bad, really bad.
So bad we MUST shutter in, close the entire countries economy down, cease all human contact and ceremonies, stay some arbitrary fools distance from others if you “must” go near...hazmat suit is a bonus.
But...obesity and diabetes great! Newsworthy even...wow?
CMO, YLP or the National Destruction Party gonna chime in on the dangers of gluttony and the costs to our “health care system”
The GOVERNMENT should mandate BMI testing!
If you fail, cannot enter BY ORDER OF THE LAW (or fear manipulation mandates which are assertive suggestions).
The burden to our overworked health care folks, tending to folks that chew their way into the very avoidable obesity and diabetes EPIDEMIC we clearly are dealing with.
If I cannot think for myself on the other ALLEGED health “concerns” why should other folks, many of which 18/7 chronically graze, be able to make their own decisions in regards to what they chew into?
Many folks I see in our society really should ONLY mask up...at feeding time.
Ya think I could fat shame folks as successfully as the multi year mask shaming zealots did and still do?
But...but...but health and safety of our society, the concerns for the health care folks, workload hospital capacity etc?
*y'all I actually do trust folks to make their own decisions, AND support y’all to eat & enjoy whatever y’all wish.
I chose this article to use it as a great MIRROR to reflect on the chronic bleats from so so many on “doing the right thing”, “respecting health care folks”, “reminding those that hold the wrong views, not to be selfish”
Blah blah.
Whilst the town freaks out we have yet another place to feed on crap food, another place to act as ESL workers as we order said food.
The parking lot and the highway will look hilarious full of giant motor homes fresh off the road amongst the locals parking at this latest feedlot.

"Wendys use fresh not frozen beef." I've never understood why they use this as an advertising gimmick. We use frozen beef burgers at home all the time. If it's frozen, it's not likely to have developed any nasty bacteria while thawing.
