    Well, today is the Liberal/NDP Non-Coalition Coalition Budget Day!

    When delivering food becomes an industry unto itself the world is in a sad state of affairs. Seems like there is no one left who knows how to peel a potato or make a sandwich. Alexa order me a plate of $25 rice.

    Looks like Chrystia may have dropped a few pounds by the photo. Of course it doesn't show the bottom end.

    2024 CFL Season

    One of the worst things to happen in a sled dog race is for a female to go into heat. Basically the race is over at that point. Having female athletic therapists working with 25 yr old pro football players is another recipe for disaster. It's a nice idea but rarely goes well. Seems the longer...

    Electric shock: A new study found that EVs were more expensive to fuel than gas-powered cars at the end of 2022

    The Tesla cybertruck may not work well but will be worth a lot of money one day. Similar to a Pacer.

    2024 CFL Season

    Cool move be Shawn Lemon to retire while still under contract. He backed up the talk and showed everyone he was a player last season. Three time champ and in retrospect probably deserving of the Most Outstanding Defensive Player award he lost to Lorenzo Mauldin in 2022. Probably won't get into...

    Canada’s $1.1-trillion debt is shockingly high – it threatens all that we value

    If you look at it 5% of $400,000 = 20,000 while 16% of $60,000 is $9600. Banks win every time. We have minimal new home construction in our area and last price I heard was $1200 / sq ft.

    Canada’s $1.1-trillion debt is shockingly high – it threatens all that we value

    Feds approve 30 year mortgages due to high interest rates slowing people down is the real reason. This way the monthly payments are less high. Squawk all they want about lowering inflation but giving $400,000 and more loans to kids in their 20's is not the way to do it. It's a blessing to not...

    Slow Computer

    Lots of waiting today and wondering which do not track icon I clicked on that made it happen. Always seems related to a Microsoft Edge innovation that shows up afterward. Now the weather is showing up on the desktop. I try to avoid as much Microsoft as possible but in reality it appears I pay...

    When you think of kids finishing high school and taking a year off before heading to university hoping to find direction the military would be a very good option. Key is to improve productivity which is very low in Canada. It would also be a way for those involved to get a pay check involving...

    In her position it would be easy to sell out. I don't know her motivation. She is probably among the top most marketable people in the world. How much does Margaret Trudeau get for a speech these days?

    Anything going on at Stonehenge today with the eclipse or just the usual dancing about?

    Greta

    It was a good story when she was 12. The challenge now will be to resist the allurement of fortune and maintain a sense of justice and modesty. She has a chance to be a good role model for youth at a time when it appears that demographic is lacking direction. I speak of those affected by the...
