  1. Just because it is not being done the way you like does not mean it is not good service. Your perception of good service is biased to what you think you should get. A comment like "One in four Ontarians will have no family doctor by 2026. The situation is similar across the country. Shortages of nurses and hospital places are common. " is just plain thoughtless. Do you or anyone with a brain really think that the government opens a bag of doctors and nurses and lets them out? It takes years to become a doctor or nurse. And then there is the shortage of them in municipalities ....where do you think the government has the right to tell them where to work?
  2. We ain't in federal america..... In federal canada your house speaker invites and honours a nazi....
  3. A business getting money from government....how unheard of LOL
  4. What it smacks of is a stupid statement. I am not a governor of the bank and am fully aware that if there is no supply, then prices go up. The governor should be taken to task for a foolish statement. It hearkens not of incompetence but of dumb things people say.
  5. Banks are a business and make money for their shareholders and, they do. They owe you nothing. What do they owe the taxpayer and what does the taxpayer do for them?
  6. G7 = nothing. I am not cheering, we, in Canada have chosen to be come consumers and buyers and not producers and makers and hence, we do not deserve high wages associated with that. We deserve what we get. Here is an idea.... why not have a guaranteed income for all...then it will all be better???? You live in Quebec....what do you know other than you get what you want LOL Hey...separate...the rest of Canada will be better for it
  7. https://www.statista.com/statistics/867687/total-number-dwellings-per-one-thousand-citizens-europe/ Disagrees with your take. Canada, on the world stage, is quite normal. Besides, there is no law or anything that says everyone deserves a house. 1. Have no clue what that means LOL 2. Show me an economic system that is not used and abused?
  8. Clearly world economics is way above your head. Be grateful our prime rate is way lower than the American.
  9. 1. Real estate has always been an asset, back to medieval times. You own the land, you are rich. 2. Capitalism is a conspiracy? Or is it that people that can, do, and people that cannot should not?
  10. Don't understand your comment. What can BOC do about shortage of housing?They don't buy land. They don't buy material. They don't hire workers. They don't build houses. They do control interest rates to try and prevent fools from borrowing money they cannot afford to pay back.
  11. I have never heard anywhere that a homeowner is blamed for the high price of housing. In fact, it is that the buyer, outbidding each other that drives prices up. Homeowners are happy with over zealous bidders. Workers demanding higher wages does increase inflation. They want more money and the employer has to charge more for his product or service to pay those wages. Blaming wage and income gap is foolish. There has always been and will always be wage gaps. Some jobs are just more valuable than others. Employers pay more for more valuable work. Want more, then get a skill and job that pays more. BOC only has one way to curb inflation, that is to increase interest rates to prevent people from borrowing money for things they want, not need.
  12. I cannot make sense of your post. "irrational exuberance of homeowners" ??? "people get too uppity about higher wages to keep up with inflation." ???? " beatings will continue yadda yadda." ??? What does that mean? What are you trying to say??
  13. The cost of land, materials, labour and red tape is still going up so...how can the cost of the house go down?
  14. Blah, blah , blah. I do not care about hamas or israel. War is war and it is not or ever was claimed to be fair. If rules were to be observed, there would only be face slapping LOL
  15. Centre console looked quite digital.....30 years ago But hey, pick your nits
  16. They bought the Bell 412EP and renamed it Griffon. It was digital cockpit at the time but the upgrades are modern, todays digital cockpits. Avionics have evolved over the past 30 years:) The engine upgrades are just to installing digital engine controls. More precise engine control. No extra power.
  17. Oh C'mon man , studying history is a different thing all together. Are there tings to be learned from the past, yes but, as technology evolves, as weapons evolve so does warfare and that is new. No army charges with swords anymore. The infantry does not have to reload after every shot. LOL You lost the argument, time to let go LOL
  18. Wake up and smell today. ... every war is new. Living in the past gets nothing.
  19. No, some jobs are worth more than others.
  20. Key word...unknown. So was Scheer and O'Foole Maybe Trudeau has more to offer than the previous conservative offerings? Gotta say though, ABT. (Anybody But Trudeau)
  21. Nope. Nice cliché but never observed LOL Not stupid, realistic. Repeating worn out old clichés is also stupid.
  22. The NDP being a small national party is totally the NDP fault. If they cannot even make it like a regional; party then i suggest the NDP re-thinks it's mandate LOL' The question for Canadians becomes an unpalatable one: do you want Trudeau or Poilievre? We certainly do not want a socialist one like NDP.
  23. ? Bend? Money for what? Your point?
  24. I get so angry when I hear or read about this sort of crap. There is nothing rehabilitative about this free drug and safe space program. It only perpetuates the present users and makes new users feel it is OK. Pi$$ me off!!! ?
