He thinks fishing. Yeah.....fishing.

It's all we do really and we have to spend more time at it cuz the fish is smaller and farder away.


The gubment has mandated that we use solar powered schooners and ethicly sound fish hooks.

Geez, you're an of touch Mississauga Nimby. Can't see the rest of the country past the 410 or 401, can yuh? You don't even have the stones to debate a challenge to your cut and paste threads.

They aren't out of luck in Alberta, our slow downs are like your good days in Ontario. That is, without the HST, high hydro bills and the high horse anti pipeline Saudi Oil imports.

Lot's of economic refugees from every province, including Ontario, are still here, and guess what?

Things are starting to get busier already.

During this slow down my company pays me the same take home every week to sit that I made working full time in Ontario.

No E.I. or Welfare, just solid investment in our employees.

That doesn't seem, so out of luck.

You carry on shilling for Prime Minister Airhead.

Airhead.

When you look at the proportion of job losses in your province as a percentage of the total population, it is much worse than anything Ontario has ever experienced.

As I said, can't see passed Nimbyland.

How much you taking home every week there, Pedigree Pete?

Wanna compare paychecks with a poor ol Alberta trucker?

He's only bringing in $999/mth, from ODSP. But that's pretty good considering he's living with his brother.

Everyone should be dumb enough to go out and kiss a train, and become a burden on the taxpayer.

I make more than that a week sitting on standby at home. I think I understand the bitterness now.

Ditto, mind you, I'm on call right now, as opposed to standby. So I actually get a premium too.

Well that and the "I don't care if taxes go up", and the "Screw cars" attitude. If you're like him and living off the taxpayers, with no drivers license, why would he care.

The work in NS is seasonal?


Michelin only makes tires in the summer? The paper mills only make paper in the summer? The shipyards don't build ships in winter? the universities and hospitals don't work year round?

The Alberta dollars shipped home to NS sure doesn't hurt either. About 65% of our drivers are from Green Energy, NS.

And that's just one company.

Where have you been the last 10 years?
Only ten? Where have you been for the last 20 years? Industry was packing up and leaving Canada long before Harper came into office.

Harper was quite diplomatic when he said there was a culture of defeat, (yes, and they still revile him to this day for that, long memories eh?). In fact it is a culture of both dependence and entitlement, I lived there too long and saw its ugliness constantly. Geez, they're still b!tching and moaning over Sunday shopping which only started, what,7 years ago. Welcome to the 20th century.
Uh, Sunday shopping in Ontario has been around for over 20 years, brought in by the supposed "worker's party".
