Good to know, I wasn't aware of that but are these vehicles armed or just armored vehicles?

Difference between government not buying and a private company selling. While I also hate this the gov't can't tell private companies who they can sell to unless there are actual sanctions against the country. That would be over reach.

I still get told that in Canada. Americans telling me that I am not allowed an opinion because he's not my president. While we have to deal with his threats and rash behavior.

I got rid of mine months ago. It had become just too vile and crazy.

Dementia. He is sundowners.

Thanks Jim! I was supposed to drive Halifax to Sidney Tuesday and back to Halifax on Wednesday. I am about to cancel that trip.

He has capitulated. Trump doesn't want to buy the rare minerals. He wants them for free with no restrictions. What Carney is the smart approach when dealing with a narcissistic psychopath. Ignore him.

Would have alot more money in 30 years.

I don't regret it but what I am responding to is the comments saying it's an investment. My pont is if you are only buying for an investment then there are better options. Right now in my area rent is $2000/month. A house would cost you a min of $6000/month. If you invested the difference. You ..

So you will have to sell your 700k house for approximately 3 million just to break even. I have owned my house for 30 years and if I sold it today I would not recoup what I have spent. I am not saying don't buy a house. I am saying it isn't there are profitable ways to invest.

Do the math and include all the expenses involved in that house. A $700,000 30 year mortgage will mean you pay approx. 1.5 million for the house. Add property tax for 30 years which is a variable another $315,000. Maintenence and repairs., allow $150,000. Utilities allow $500,000.

Not comparing to rent which is not more expensive than owning. I am looking at it as an investment compared to other investments. 0% growth would not be an acceptable ROI in any other format. If you invested in metal funds you would not accept 0% growth over 30 years.

It doesn't say it here but the farms have st up a go fund me for these workers if anyone is interested.

If you compare what I paid to have it built to what it would sell for it looks like a lot of profit but when you factor everything in. It isn't.

But it isn't. If I sold my house that i have lived in for 30 years today I wouldn't break even in what I spent in the last 30 years and this is despite housing costs doubling in the last 4 years. It used to be that way but not anymore.

They still have to clean them up. Alberta is to ensure they do it if not they are to use the bonds issued to cover the cost of clean-up.

I feel your pain! I am in the same situation today.

But you aren't really cashing in anymore. Once you factor in all the cost it is more likely you will break even if you are lucky. It isn't likely you are going to sell your very old house that will need upgrades for 2 million or more.

Your statement doesn't make sense. Rich people fet rich by being penny wise. They even complain about the price of tide at Walmart. Yet you think that they will just gladly hand over 25% of their income. They di pay taxes. Their tax rate is the highest bracket.

How pays yhe import taxes? Canadian consumers do not the company. So again let's hurt the middle class. How are the import taxes working out for the US?

They will when they can buy one someone else for 1 million dollars. That is how they got to be rich. Again we have 57 billionaires in Canada, how many new luxury yachts are being bought a year? Maybe 1? Then they keep it for 20 years.

Oh yes the national post. Nothing the post is true. If it was why did they keep the bulk of it? The tax still applies to automobiles which is the thing people actually buy. People buying a new yacht like the one in the pic is rare in Canada.

So you want to drive all corporations out of Canada and leave Canadians with-out work? Any idea how many people in Canada are employed by corporations? Do you have any idea how much money they contribute to taxes indirectly? Your plan would result in many more hungry children.

The bulk of the luxury tax is still there. They dropped boats and planes because it was hurting the people that build them. The few people that buy new yachts and private planes simply stopped buying them. Which put people out of work.

Elon doesn't live in Canada. Tesla is not in Canada. Why would an person who lives in the US who doesn't have a manufacturing plant in Canada pay Canadian taxes? The only thing they have here is is the Tesla show rooms and I am not sure Tesla owns those. They do pay taxes.

What tax breaks for the wealthy? It wouldn't be the wealthy paying for it, it will be the middle class. Canada doesn't have that many truly wealthy people. We have 57 billionaires. 57 out of 42 million. The Carney gov't has put about 60 billion $ into housing. What do you think the cpc would put in?

I don't lack empathy but also can't figure out what exactly people are looking for.

Do you expect the gov't to build everyone a house for free? And who pays for that? They do have affordable and deeply affordable housing. They are building more. I don't want the gov't dictating where I live.

And the current gov't has funded a ton of new housing but it needs to be built. Some are now open where I live. The Harper gov't moved housing programs to the provinces. Maybe you should chat with th premier. Housing has always been a commodity.

That's where apartments come in. You can rent your entire life.
