Is it time to call an end to The Lions?

I'm wondering how many people are actually active on here. We have a few regular posters and some who like articles quite regularly but I think the majority of our subscribers seldom or never visit.

The Lions Locals was set up as a continuation after Danielle Smith closed down Danielle Smith Locals after becoming politically vulnerable.

For a time we maintained connections but lately this seems to have faded away to where there's only a small remnant active, and I suspect many have drifted off to other sites.

Vote to see the results, and give us your thoughts in the comments below.

As of Saturday morning, 42 people have replied, Meaning that at least 42 people visited in the last several days. The vast majority feel that the site has value and, interestingly, those who said that the site has outlived its usefulness visit and participate anyhow.

42 people visiting over a few days seems to justify the effort that members put into posting and offer encouragment. The favorable comments are much appreciated.

46 replies (latest count) in a few days isn't too bad. Indicates quite a few of us are here often, actually.

What I wonder about is the people who voted that the site has outlived its usefulness but are here just the same. Also I wonder how many people came and read the message and didn't vote. When I visualize 45 people in a room, that seems like a respectable crowd for a small get together.

Listened to Ganum today as it is Friday and Cross Talk with other radio hosts in Canada. The guy from B.C. mentioned shootings in Surrey which was the first any of them heard - too busy giving Canadians news from south of the border. After the show Shay had open line and a long time listener (tesla Jim) phoned in and said he watches all the Global news from AB and Canada and knew nothing about it. I hadn't either. Do we need further proof that the Canadian media is corrupt.

Does anyone know if Dougie has commented on the "Crown Royal Players championship of curling in Manitoba. I must admit I had to look twice to see if I was actually seeing correctly. Good for a chuckle. Ontario only made the dam bottles not the booze.
