It's okay when they do it but when the tables are turned. Banking institutions are the true vermin of society imo "Keith Gill, one of the most influential voices that pushed GameStop on the WallStreetBets Reddit forum, was hit with a lawsuit that accused him of misrepresenting himself as an...

The truth comes out. Only trouble is understanding all the abbreviations (old government trick)

I'm waiting for all the 80 below freezers to show up.

Why no high speed rail link between Calgary and Edmonton for one?

Cowering could be interpreted as an opinion. Living life is not the same routine for all. What about Tibetan Lamas in isolation in search of Shambala? Others in wilderness homes happy and content. Who decides?

Another sign of a stable economy is daily 30% swings in the market.

Nobody goes to the football games in Vancouver. I think there are plenty of fans that follow the team. Lions are the oldest pro sports franchise in BC I believe. Going on 60 years.

Found out today the capacitor that controls the blower motor on a furnace costs $3.50. Significant savings over a motor replacement @ $400 plus the service call. Takes less than ten minutes to change. 1/4" nut driver only tool required.

$15 billion for walking paths coming up. They built one not far from me that requires a one hour walk just to get to the path. Nice path but not used. Matters most that the consultants and planners get their share.

I don't get that and can't believe there are not bus loads of Seattle fans taking advantage of the cheap dollar and the great entertainment. Problem I see in Vancouver is with Pavco being in charge and no real interest in the game except for putting in their time for the pension. The city loves...

TSN stepping up once again and cutting radio stations in Vancouver, Winnipeg and Hamilton. I don't see how this helps the CFL. Of course they hold exclusive radio rights that they can sell. Big surprise announcement with 30 minutes notice to grab personal possessions sounds cool as well. Bell...

Mentioned on CBC last week that Alibaba is one of the major holdings of the CPPIB. Less fly by night than the Legoland holdings but still a ways to go to become a dividend aristocrat imo. Obviously the CPPIB not limiting themselves to North American securities. Ticks me off every time I check...

Could also be the main feeder system for the Dept of Immigration. It's the building they have to go to to get the form.

Still thinking about the 170 Canadian foreign embassies and wondering if resetting that to reflect a more continental scope might be a more manageable system. Prize posting could be Antartica

Laurentian University declaring bankruptcy says more about the well compensated bureaucracy than any lack of funding imo. Absolutely don't need it. Close the doors and quit spending good money. Life will go on.

Organigram and Aphria both having nice days

It's never been a better time to be a civil servant (name is an oxymoron). Stay home and get paid but tell everyone you are working from home. Meanwhile save the expense of the daily commute and now get a WFH tax credit that will cost the government $250 million. Every day counting towards...

This is where the idea of a decentralized digital currency makes sense to avoid the fallout from the inane fiscal mismanagement of leaders like JT

We will never find out but my guess is they have already blown a billion out the door and are definitely now scrambling and throwing money at everything that moves. Canada ranked 33rd in dealing with the pandemic. Might as well let him get started on securing the new cure for cancer drug sooner...

What information is used to make market decisions with the Doge?
