    CDN-Economy & Related Factors

    Big beef for Rogers and their wacky free roaming and long distance game. I have lived in fear of making an international cell phone call since the day the things were invented being afraid of the big roaming bill. Decided recently that they must have that all worked out by now so made a call...

    WE really need to get rid of this guy

    Sounds like another regular day at the office. Given all involved I could see $100,000 in expenses for the day for zero accomplishment. Liberals will drag this out until it goes away.

    End the Lockdown

    "The estimated construction cost for the Trans Mountain pipeline expansion has ballooned from $5.4 billion to $12.6 billion. " Researchers suggest shelving the project. Engineers pockets are already full and the $12 billion is the lowest number they think they can get away with making public...

    Public Education in 2020

    News about the Ontario Teachers Pension fund being one of the largest and most influential institutional investment funds in the country is another example of where public education dollars flow away from being an investment in the education of the next generation. Talk about an opportunity...

    Canada's money the dirtiest of world's 20 top currencies: Study

    Banks are beyond accountability and used their influence to guide government policy to their benefit. They will screw you over for $1000 every chance they get. Canadian banks were instrumental in setting up the Caymans as tax havens. I have no doubt that you are completely right about washing...

    CFL 2021

    Bombers playing the sad music and reporting a $7 million loss despite spending $8 million on football ops and marketing in a year when they did basically nothing. Convenient that big Wade wasn't wearing the giant diamond encrusted Grey Cup ring he spent all that money on. No word about the...

    Canada sold the entire reserve when gold was $860. Basically nothing left and behind Portugal in global reserve standing. Russian gold holdings exceed their entire national debt.

    Mississauga mayor thinks another stay-at-home order is on the way for Ontario

    The savings in travel expense to Ottawa alone would be significant. Will never happen though as that is the cushy part of the job. Probably 1500 or so working in travel. Been a long time since I've seen anything from the Canadian Taxpayer Federation. Possibly they are working from home as well.

    Mississauga mayor thinks another stay-at-home order is on the way for Ontario

    No credit limit is the problem and they are all happy to give a hand to a friend in need. Canada needs to start cutting back on so called services that mostly service themselves which is just about everything that they do. 20% across the board would not even be missed. Minimizing expenses...

    CFL 2021

    Hammer the players down first. Then hit the fans with the same sob story and hike prices as high as they can. Then release the single game gambling revenue news that will fill their coffers. Maybe it works.

    Huge cargo ship gets wedged in Suez Canal

    Coconut water when nothing else works for a blockage. Might want to talk to the person who authorized the vessel to enter that section of the canal under those conditions. Lots of paperwork ahead for this one.

    Congratulations President Elect Joe Biden!!

    I can see where the Chinese did not want more Trump but Biden in office pretty well makes a mockery of global diplomatic relations. Sad days. Canada is not immune to the chaos.
