Liberal outdoorsman who believes in urbanism, and that cars are going to doom us. Following economics, history, finance, sports. Listening to jazz, thinking of Linda Ronstadt, but I'll take some Nirvana.

Northern Gateway was marginal pre TMX expansion, now not at all. Private industry doesn't want to invest. Asian long term demand for bitumen doesn't make it profitable. Smith using it as a bargaining tool for US exports. Maybe Keystone.

All young adults crave; adventure, travel, new experiences, sense of belonging, growth etc etc. Tap into that and make the CAF a place to be. Pay is a good start but is only one simple thing in an overall environment. Good facilties, equipment, training are the main things.

If the cruise ships by pass Canadian ports of call, under the Jones Act, the ships will have to be US registered, crews all US citizens, and comply with US regulations. During covid they received a temp reprieve. Costs would double or scrap the Jones Act.

Nah keep it simple. Untreated water. Pure natural water. Maybe some unpasteurized milk. Basic prevaccine health care.

This is a continuation of privatization in the face of lower taxes. Resulting in under resourced local services. Private schools, policing, health care, parks and rec, now fire fighting.

In the 1930s the US had the greatest passenger train system. Time to make America great again.

Only a great man like Trump can do this and it would guarantee the greatest legacy. It would be beautiful.

The Danes should refuse Don Jr etc entry into their sovereign territory of Greenland. By the way a Nato country which hosts a huge strategic US Airforce base at Tulle.

Why did I always believe that in college the Dems were the rule breaking Animal House frat, and the Reps are the strait laced establishment. Role reversal with age.

Elsewhere in the world someone can do these low skill manufacturing job for less. Those high paying jobs are gone forever from North America and western Europe. Ask your plumber neighbor how he is doing, or someone who touches a keyboard? The economy has changed. Trade or tech school.

Will the college book store pay you in cash or do I have to wash dishes at the local pub? Asking for a friend.

I worked for a global bank, their mantra was to have a minimum 20 % of employees working remotely. Selfish reasons, save on real estate costs, plus you pay for the electricity, wifi, heat, desk, chair etc etc. They paid for a laptop and a secure connection.

The problem is that Ramaswammy and his irk are the first to defund public education and advocate for "choice" in private, charter etc forms of education.

NS is an untapped treasure of bike touring. Based out of Halifax there are multiple routes of backroads to explore; Annapolis Valley, Eastern Shore, Northumberland Strait etc etc with villages offering accommodation and food just kilometers apart. Something NS tourism should exploit more.

Thesis. Post WW II US had a lot of automobile manufacturing capacity. Promoting this industry fulfilled that supply, along with the Oil industry and road building. Train had a lower industrial ceiling.

Other than actually playing hockey , what has he successfully done other than be a shill for gambling and liquor. Now he's pushing drugs. Yes it's a vax but appears to be a pattern.
