    RIP Gord Downie

    Dam October weather. He should have been good and a warmer jacket would have helped. Where were the trains? Did they pass by and not stop? Have not seen or heard the Secret Path. What you say about the details are no doubt true. What they were able to do is to raise an awareness of the event...

    RIP Gord Downie

    Eddie Van Halen was as good as they got. Wouldn't have been able to do one without the other.

    New Zealand raises minimum wage to $20 an hour and raises taxes on the rich.

    Curious how much New Zealand politicians make. To someone making $200,000 like our politicians $20 is not a lot although it can easily become $50 in an overtime situation. For the person spending the money that adds up fast and reality is the employee needs to create value in excess of wages...

    His finger was on the wrong button

    Retired general Jonathan Vance thought he was 'untouchable,'

    Accepted behaviour, only sorry when they are caught. Vance would have known Russell Williams well.

    Ontario issues stay-at-home order except for essentials

    They could make more money if they made everyone wear a patch. Consistent recurring revenue stream. Book the profit through a foreign country and reduce tax. Everyone wins.

    Retired general Jonathan Vance thought he was 'untouchable,'

    My bad, Jon Vance Can't see how to edit the thread title. I live in shame. Crucify me and let the dirt bag go.

    Retired general Jonathan Vance thought he was 'untouchable,'

    Just another day when Canada's top military "soldier" is revealed as a dirt bag sexual predator and people don't even blink. Hopefully this does not affect his pension. Getting to be a fairly long list of these people.

    Trudeau Has Buried Us In Debt

    So if that was the budget and nothing was mentioned about securities regulation and naked short selling when will the review conclude and action be taken. Sorry for the long cut and paste but wow. From wikipedia: "Unlike any other major federation, Canada does not have a securities regulatory...

    What are we getting from the NDP? I have higher hopes for the new leader of the Greens. What I would like to see is a Canadian Tax Payer Party that could hold the balance and lead into a period of reform. Target people who have given up voting and you damn near have the majority right there.

    Hyperinflation is coming...

    Municipal government is more of the same. Go to a conference on your neighbours dime. Can't expect them to take less of a pension than the rest of their peers in government. It never ends. Gas is crazy given the demand for crude with a nice slice of tax dollars included that they never like to...

    Every bank stock sitting at the 52 week high. Somebody will write a book about this one day.

    May as well draw the line at the time zone boundary and save a few from the nw. More of the same for the budget. 789 pages of bs. Details on page 522. With a country in chaos the focus is once again child care and the environment. Stabilize housing for the banks. Not one cut back.

    A vote for the NDP is a vote for the Liberals. It's the same as a majority. NDP happy to be working (for themselves). Green party winning the balance of power would be a beautiful thing.

    $350 billion loss on 2020. Not one cut back mentioned. Money, money, money. Elect a clown, expect a circus.

    Defund CBC

    CBC could just grab random people and ask them to read that days news for $200 or whatever it takes. Wouldn't really matter a hill of beans and it might drive the ratings.
