He's a musician?

Oh?

like it or not yes :2 cents: :2 cents: he stacked over 100 mill :Oh crap i don't really like the music :2 cents::2 cents:

Congratz to him and Canada..:upsidedow

Only real sporting events get real musicians.

Oh, this is for Bieber and Celine.

Payback!

Amusingly, true.

Outside of Canada...there's been next-to-nothing reported on the PanAm Games in the media.

Like a non-event.

I was just looking at the website. Canada has the most gold medals by far. How is that possible? LOL. That's not even a knock, just compare population sizes.

Clearly quality trumps quantity. :winkwink:

What does it say about Kanye when people are saying "It should have been Beiber"

That people are mad because a white dude didn't get the job.

:1orglaugh

This is Canada, we don't think in skin color here. :winkwink:

Or perhaps there's a gov't-mandated hiring quota of visible minority douchebags.

That $3,000,000,000 of taxpayers money was spent on an event that 99.999% of the world, even those people in the countries that participate, doesn't care about, is an outrageous display of government incompetence.

If you're going to spend 3 billion dollars on this type of shit just think of the hundreds of projects that could have been built in communities that would last decades, that millions of people would use and get benefit from.

3 BILLION = 3000 individual million dollar projects :(

i bet you have front row seats :2 cents::2 cents: enjoy the show dogg :thumbsup:thumbsup

You really know how to depress a person even worse.

Here in our local city, they built a 'Flatwater Center" for the boating events - they're calling it a "legacy project". A multi-million dollar facility that'll remain dormant 98% of the year but that we'll continue to pay for upkeep through municipal taxes.

Give it a few years...it'll look like Sarajevo.

That's rather sobering .......

Seeing that this isn't something anyone gives a shit about up here, the trend continues, by picking this no talent douche bag at taxpayers expense :2 cents:

I thought you were joking.

Total cost of 2015 Pan Am Games pegged at more than $2.5-billion - The Globe and Mail

Holy crap. That's half of your GDP! :winkwink:

Why are the games called the pan am games. That company went bust while I was still in school. Back in 1991.

Never heard of pan am games before lol

Pales in comparison to the amount of money given to Africa in the form of "aid" over the years. USA gave 12 billion alone in 2012...

Thats nothing compared to the so called "War on Poverty" in the US, where we're now talking 20 Trillion spent to continue to prove that handouts don't elevate people.

Yep, it is happening.

Can't you two fucking idiots stop the racial bullshit for even one day?

You're a failure because you are dumb, not because you are black

So they're going to let him on stage and babble a bunch of nonsense with something that's supposed to be music?

Not only that but they're paying him.

How pathetic that the Pan Am games organisation didn't choose a canadian band or singer.

Shame on them

:1orglaugh :1orglaugh

looks like you're not alone...
A Lot of Canadians Really Don't Want Kanye at the Pan Am Games

That delusional tool needs some quiet time with a squad of professional therapists.

and some vocal lessons while he's at it. When you look at all the great artists that have come before him, you realize that it's sad what most popular music has become, just an empty shell wrapped inside neat packaging.

googling "pan am games" so i can get up to speed on the topic. i've heard of kanye but never really heard his stuff. i thought he was doing more fashion related shit these days, you know, picking out kim's outfits and such.

dang, that's quite event, it's huge! i wonder what they paid kanye.

you know who would have been cool for this instead of kanye? deadmau5

I didn't even know there was a Pan-Am games going on and I live in Canada...

Why not Drake? He's like... Canadian and shit right? Plus... bitches love Drake. :1orglaugh
