Sorry Manitoba and Canada

25 Wednesday Sep 2019

Posted by pgbuote in Central Canada Comic Con, Conventions, Ramblings By Perry

≈ Leave a comment

This is from the CBCnews CBCnews  

I’Am sorry that our Provincial Government  will not support Central Canada Con with grants and support , I’am sorry that our Premier would rather help his friends get rich and cut health care so bad , that its going to hurt .That the major Business in the city knowing full well that C4 had 70,000 people for spending money in Winnipeg for the Three day period of the  Central Canada Comic Con 2018 

I ‘ Am truly sorry that the Royal Bank of Canada who brag’s they are for the people will not help sponsor a event . So i guess that all the RBC wants is a name on a fairly unused building because it priced itself out of the market for shows . But I ‘am truly Sorry that the Business of Winnipeg and Manitoba are no willing to help sponsor a great show, but then they have to explain to [ if they had children ] that they thought a little help was too much for the Joy of many people seeing they’re Movie and Television  Stars  .

Heck I’m just a little web blog and I have donated and given my all to support the  Central Canada Comic Con 2018  and Boy am I sorry that Big Business in Manitoba could not out sponsor me for one of our shows .

Help ( Self or Others )

I have been away for a while and the reason for my absence will be blogged about in the Future. It has nothing to do with this story. I just found this authors views interesting . As a parent with a child In the Spectrum I always look for guidance .

Here is a good read about Autism and the Burnouts they suffer . Included in the authors post is several links to reference material . The Author Ryan Boren from his blog  Boren.blog this link  will bring you to his Blog. It is a long read for internet standards but it is informative.

Here is a link to Ryan Borg

Well the planes have a flaw and Boeing and the US government knew ,,But the government was shut down because of Donald Trump . the updates were available but that branch of government was closed .

here is a article from http://www.cbc.ca  737 Max 8  

Just a few days late . Seeing as how the Minister in charge was a pilot this should have happened immediately after he second crash .

Happy New Year

new yewar 2019

Well , Another year is over and we have accomplished many good things this year . One of the Backyard Geeks sprouted and left Home to live  in Winnipeg, She is pursuing a new way of living by trying to re-enter College ,  this time not as a Engineering student but as a Graphic Artist , So with this she can create these lovely GIF’s that I always download. At least this one the artist had his name embedded into the art .

Times are changing all around Us, The Neighbours to the South are having a rather rough patch with they’re political system, And in 6 hours Their President will know what the meaning of ” Impotent president ” means . kind of make us feel sorry for them but No, This is what they wanted and this is what they got .

This year 2018 was a particularly busy one for me , It seemed that almost every Second day I was traveling to Winnipeg for one reason or another .  I was given new responsibilities for c4con.com , Currently at this time the website is down .

I was also amazed that I only spent a total of 20 days in the hospital this year, I think all them specialist’s are finally getting my medication correct .

We also added a new Furbaby to the mix let me introduce to YOU the and only Czex 20180404_145340_Film1

Yes he a barker, and a barker, and a yelper, and he talks to you like a Husky .  But he is certainly interesting.

You see it is hard for one (Me) to express myself , although I have never shied away from speaking . Expressing myself with only flat words that I cannot animate when speaking  , Is tough i guess I should be taking a class or something along the lines of writing skills but hey My thesis was on Arthur Erickson and his ability to integrate land mass into home environments . Which by the way had nothing to do with Mechanical Engineering but, my direction to the fact that using natural elements was in a way Mechanical use of elements for visual and spiritual ( Feng Shui ) .

Anyhow  I’m drifting here and going off topic. Which by the way should be my New Year resolution but why have a resolution only to break it a few days later , Let’s call it  “My New Year Goal” . As by Typing this out it could be noted that I did not make any promise that was not achievable, but in fact is Doable  if I apply myself .

Well Let’s all just say goodBye to 2018 and  farewell to many A great Artists that have left Us.  Bye Bandit , miss you Generalissimo  and Farewell Professor. 2018 celebrity

Central Canada Comic Con 2018

C42018

Well the Central Canada Comic Con 2018  show is over and it was again a great show.  All of the Celebrity guest were engaging to be around again like many of the Con’s on past. img20181030_12254846This was the second show where Michael Dorn  was a Guest and He was just as polite this time as the last show very interactive and posed for many selfies with the Con Goers . The line for Todd Haberkorn  the line up for him was pretty much constant all weekend , Todd known for his voice work has a very large following. Also Todd stood up for many selfies with the fans . Adrian paul and Adam BuoteNext up Adrian Paul  who also put on a side class The Sword Experience which he also does for individual and team building and corporate events . Had a really good memory as he met my Son , Adam years previous when we had all the actors from The Hobbit series in attendance . Jewel Staite  had many a rush of autographs seekers and many attendee’s in the photo-op booth , Most of you would of course know her from Firefly and recently Stargate Atlantis , The Magicians and The killing. Paul Blake and Dave Barclay got into they’re rhythm half way through the convention when suddenly some Starwars people started lining up with their action figures to be autographed the Two gentlemen never turned anyone away from telling a good story of the making of the Franchise . Corin Nemec had to cut his show short as he was called away , as these things happen when you hire an Actor they sometimes get called back during our show, but before he left I kind of left him leaving with a good name Mix-up like no other ( not true ) because I screwed up Richard Comley with a wrestler many years ago as I was announcing guests to each other at a meet and greet now that was one funny and yet humbling experience.

But hand down this year in only my opinion was David Haydn-Jones  , This man would walk with the guests to the photo-op booth and have a chat with them along the way, He was standing most of the show and he was always getting selfie requests , He also answered one of my Son Adams  many questions about #Supernatural  , Then at the absolute end of the Comic con as he and Jewel Staite walked out he stopped by my booth and shook hands with me. apparently He had given Adam a Michael Knight POP figurine   20181103_214708

just for asking him if He will be returning as a Man of Letters in the Show. He explained that he doesn’t know as these show’s are filmed and written so fast that they get only a few weeks notice , But loved the role.

Next up about the show was the fun part as you see that the beginning of these events they are pretty bare and empty buildings. 20181025_131637

the initial set up took me and Jesslyn about a good 5 hours to put up all the Autographs and sort out the clothing , and memorabilia from past show’s . Most of Mike’s Collection , Owner of  Cobra Collectibles was cataloged by Myself and his Eldest  during the previous months just to get ready for this show and future shows to come . 20181025_16540920181027_16281820181027_162835

Another thing that was terrific about this show I was directly across from Sammy Castillo of TSCastilliostudios when , Miss Sammy would get change at her booth she would collect it and then send her family to me to exchange it for paper money apparently our coin doesn’t travel well . We had a nice discussion on who was the recipient of the Castillo Award . My only regret is that I do not have a decent photo of her Booth this year.

The Cos-Players this year brought a whole new game to the show the Attendees were all  intertwined with the Cos-players mingling with each other and posing for photos and then there was Pikachu 20181027_124107

And the Fairy Grandmother or cousin or Aunt or whatever , Who could not grant my wish for the winning lotto numbers as that was not Her department 20181028_133248

As for the other TheBackyardgeek it is up to Her to add her own feelings on how this years show turned out .

Thank you for now Perry

This year at C4Winnipeg    the Artist and Guest line up is really diverse and for the Better
