There are very, very few cheap rooms. Anything over about $15 (the maid's wage and the cost of soap, etc.) is straight profit.

Over six million international tourists flocked to British Columbia in 2018, the highest number on record.
International eh? Man that's a LOT of fossil fuels being burned for people just to visit BC. I mean, for a province that continually represents itself as being anti-oil, you sure like what oil does for BC tourism while whining about the high price of gas.

You oil lovin' white natty. :lol:

Pierre was just returning the bird that the residents of Sicamus gave him.




POOR STUPID CLIFFY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


He is so ignorant that he does not know that Our Vile Pet Pierre was a FOOL..............................


for giving ordinary Cdns an HONEST CHANCE to express their views...............................


regarding another 4 years of Trudope LIE-berals!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Too bad that LIE-berals seem to have learned....................


from that Salmon Arm Saute DEBACLE........................


and are now managing appearances by Our idiot Boy Justin



MUCH MORE CAREFULLY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



To bad..............................................


I would travel a LONG WAY to offer Our idiot Boy a RICHLY DESERVED............................................


Salmon Arm Salute!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!





LIE-berals led by Our idiot Boy Justin are promoting a wildly perverted ideology in which drunken natives, ill educated blacks, radical Muslims and assorted homeless drug addicts are portrayed as being so completely helpless that it is morally WRONG not to help them!!!!!!!!!!!

Too bad LIE-berals IGNORE the truth - that nobody forces natives to drink heavily or use drugs or drop out of school!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Nobody forces black kids to drop out of school and take up drug dealing for fun and profit because being a dealer looks way cooler to the girls than shlepping boxes at a supermarket!!!!!!

And there is nothing forcing radical Muslims to immigrate to western countries operating with moral values that Muslims despise - except for the fact that Muslims seem incapable of running anything like a modern efficient capitalist democracy in their home territories - thus Muslims are actually FLEEING from themselves !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Self described political pundit Gerry Nichols has had so much fun mocking the disastrous Justin Trudope trip to India that he has come up with a new joke.......................

Nichols says “LIE-berals are taking bets as whether Trudope would chose to go to Peru dressed as a Spanish Conquistador or as an Inca Emperor!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

There is almost nothing about Justin Trudeau`s political career that suggests he has ever had even the slightest interest in discovering that somebody he vehemently disagrees with might actually have a valid point to make” Quote attributed to J.J. McCullough of Washington Post.

It is proof of how badly LIE-beral policy is failing that they keep trotting out easily disproved statistics about our out of control debt and allegedly booming economy to support their shaky positions- that are so worrying that LIE-berals are tightening up mortgage regulations to limit the debt we may take on!

LIE-berals like to talk about income inequality- but their version is a red herring designed to trick us. There is wealth and there is other wealth- meaning on one hand- I get might get money because I build good houses with nice features that people will pay for. Or I make nice meals that people will buy because they want to. Or people pay me to fix their cars because they like the quality of work I do. Then there is other wealth- and it comes to people who have a monopoly stranglehold on some essential service. Such as your bank fees- that are set by a powerful cabal of bankers- with no room for negotiation or refusal of service- in our modern world you must have a bank account for your boss to deposit your pay into- you will not be paid in cash. Or your auto insurance that is set by another powerful cabal of business owners- with no room for negotiation- either you pay or you walk! Or your car license plate- you pay what the union that controls the clerks who issue the plates have decided- in cooperation with LIE-beral politicians or you walk. Your property tax rates are set by another cabal of unions in cooperation with LIE-beral politicians. Your income tax is set by yet another cabal of unions and LIE-beral politicians! Over 50 percent of an average income is controlled by LIE-berals and unions in the form of taxes that you MUST PAY! Then add in the oligopoly that controls your bank and your mortgage or your rent and then add your insurance company and we see that over 75 percent of your income is controlled by those powerful- LIE-beral friendly - oligopolies. Then add in the massive borrowing that is done in your name by LIE-berals - and it IS money you MUST pay back some day- and we see that ALL your money has been spent by LIE-beral politicians on their pet projects- which usually do NOT include you! YOU ARE BROKE! You will not live long enough to see socialist LIE-berals balance our books and bring the country back into the black!

I heard Ben Shapiro talking about feminists and he points out that feminists insist that men and women are intellectually the same and all equal. If that is true then why does Our idiot Boy Justin insist that we must have more women in govt? If we are all the same then the gender of our elected officials is irrelevant? Unless you are a LIE-beral bigot seeking votes?

LIE-berals trying desperately to reduce the amount of public debate that is now devastating their many disgraced policies sometimes tell me that my arguments would be more widely accepted if I presented them in a less angry and aggressive way- meaning in a less detailed and less damaging to LIE-berals and thus milder way! What it comes down to is that LIE-berals want me to be less disgusted and less specific about their many failings- while LIE-berals want to call me an “Islamophobe” and a “systemic racist” and they want to put me in jail as a “hate criminal” for exposing their many failures!

A poll suggests that less than half of Cdns see themselves as being to blame for past wrongs done to indigenous people. With recent immigrants and children of immigrants most likely to say we all share blame. And of course the LIE-beral devil is in the details! Why don’t LIE-berals ask if we want to sell our souls to unemployed, violence prone native drunkards?

And if recent immigrants are so worried about native rights then why are they coming here to live on native lands?

LIE-berals have their priorities badly skewed! Certainly there is inequality in our society but the way to fix that inequality is NOT by implementing more inequality- also known as “affirmative action- intended to promote ethnic groups based on appearance rather than ability or seniority or work experience!

LIE-berals released seven accused killers in summer 2017 because they did not have the resources to give the killers a trial in a reasonable amount of time. In 2016 LIE-berals ordered a fraud artist who was accused of stealing $30 million dollars out of the country and let him take his stolen money with him- because they could not give him a trial in a reasonable time. In 2017, LIE-berals ordered 3 fraud artists- with their stolen $14 million dollars- out of the country without the bother of a trial due to lack of resources. But at the same time LIE-berals did find the time to give an immigration hearing to a Guatemalan death squad leader- who had already been rejected by Yankee immigration officials! And in 2017 LIE-berals arrested and charged a Mississauga man with Hate crime because he offered up cash to anybody who could provide proof that hate speech was occurring in Muslim Mosques. Yes- it is now ILLEGAL in Canada for a citizen to ask for proof of some thing LIE-berals do not want to discuss! I think LIE-berals have badly skewed priorities that are so blatant they should be immediately fired from office!

Here we are- a year after the Mississauga man was arrested for offering money in exchange for verified proof of hate speech in Cdn mosques- and LIE-beral controlled Canada has just removed the charitable status of a Muslim group for promoting hate!

There's one rather important fact here that can't be overlooked...………...Cliffy and Pierre were fellow Quebeckers who were pals growing up together! :) But that in no way excuses the length of your tiring screed.

Were you not the one expounding on the benefits of the tourist trade in B. C. ? What is it ? Jobs or reduction of our carbon footprint ? Is B.C. planning for an increase in its population in the coming years ? What is it ? Come Hoid what is it you want ?

You mean like when you cheer the increase in global persecution of non-White christians?

Or when you leftist shit stains use people of colour and act like you speak for them just to further your ideological agenda?

Or how you dumb f*cks can't seem to make up your mind whether Hispanics are White or not. Like when they do good things, they are fine, upstanding citizens of the Latino community, but if they do bad shit like kill a person of colour, suddenly they're just Whitey being Whitey.

You tell us if it's a playground for morons you racist dick.

Well there is a temporary downturn in the forest industry right now in the B.C. interior, but that is short term as far as I know and I doubt if it would interfere with tourism to any great degree as tourism mostly comes from out of the area.


South Cariboo mill contractors working through a difficult time

By
Millar Hill 100milefreepress.net

Recent mill closures in the South Cariboo are hitting contractors and smaller businesses alike hard – leaving them in a state of uncertainty for their future.

Debra Maclean and her husband Rod Dillman, who co-own Rod Dillman Contracting are apart of those being affected by the indefinite curtailment of Norbord’s 100 Mile House mill location.

“We have been working for them for years,” said Maclean. “We were bidding on timber sales performing stump-to-dump logging and Norbord had been issuing some of our contract work.”

The couple started their business in the South Cariboo 14 years ago with one machine and have built it up ever since. Up until now, their company had consisted of 25 full-time employees and about five sub-contractors.

“We had 25 employees and in the last week I had to lay off 10 guys and our guys are like our family – it devastated Rod and I,” said Maclean. “It’s heartbreaking.”

The curtailment of 100 Mile’s Norbord location came to them as a shock, as it did for many. Maclean said Dillman was first made aware of the curtailment from a text message that one of the logging truck drivers had sent.

“After we heard it from the truck driver, one of the fellows at Norbord had tried to get a hold of Rod, who at the time missed the call,” said Maclean. “Rod phoned him back and he was told (of the curtailment) and then, of course, the following day we were sent an email saying the contract was void – so that’s where we are now.”

In order to keep their business running, the couple is now searching for alternative markets where they can send loads.

“For us to have to sit down and figure out how we are going to do this and be able to get through this – we had no choice but to reduce our staff,” said Maclean. “Obviously, we need the revenue to cover our expenses and we are reducing those expenses. It’s crushing, most of our staff have families and we can’t help them and that devastates me. I don’t see the government stepping in and helping them. It blows my mind that the government can offer help to the mill workers, as they should, but they forget about the contractors and their crews.”

Maclean said it’s not just the mill workers and contractors that are going to be affected, but every other business that plays a significant role in the industry.

“The businesses that we buy our fluids and parts, we aren’t purchasing much,” said Maclean. “If we need it, we will go get it but before we were having them stock us up but we can’t do that now. It’s trickling downhill for all of us. We log for a lot of the ranchers around here and the wood is just sitting there and that’s hard too because don’t want to let those people down … It’s terrible.”

In past years, the company has been able to help out in the community, but with the loss of jobs and people having to cut back their spending, those generosities could be hard to come by in the following months. Maclean said that it’s not just going to affect the industry but the community as a whole.

“This was a shock. We didn’t have a choice in this matter, it was just sprung on us,” said Maclean. “We are left having to function day by day.”

Despite the uncertainty during this time, Maclean is hopeful and plans to hang on and do their best with what they’ve got.

“We are a strong company and are not going away.”

Temporary or not, JLM - the mills closures are life-changing events for thousands of families.
