I have been using Organic Maps and I have no complain.

I worry about this: https://www.dhs.gov/real-id but from the website, it seems that many states id/driver licenses are “REAL ID compliant” and you only need it if you fly domestically or wanting to access “certain federal facilities”.

Stay safe, friend.

I have a question for you, do you actually need REAL ID to travel domestically?

This. I personally have no plan going to usa now and in the future. Unfortunately some Canadians may still have to go for work related trips. Just be aware that you may or may not need to register in the new “Alien Registration Requirement”.

My checked luggage used to be searched when I went to usa. I knew it was searched because tsa would leave a pamphlet inside my luggage saying that it was searched. I believe they have stopped leaving such pamphlet but I won’t be surprised if they still search luggages.

Labours are not expensive. CEOs are expensive and frankly, not worth their pay. Let’s cap CEOs’ salary to say max 10X average salary of employees. For example: average employee in that company earns $70K a year. CEOs’ salary will then be capped at $700K a year. We should also give equal percentage raises, ie. CEOs want 10% raise? Then all employees will also have 10% raise.

I would love to play felon a song but couldn’t find my microscopic violin.

And France (Saint Pierre) I think? Thanks CBC Gem!

Yes NIMBYISM of the rich. They want all the profit, don’t care about destroying the environment for profit, don’t care about polluting the air, the water, the soil through their fossil fuels extraction, as long as we don’t ruin their views. Tax the rich.

We need to re-learn the real cost of goods and not depending on China or other low cost third world countries. We need to re-learn the idea that “less is more” in terms of consumerism. Purchase a good quality, fairly priced item and use it for as long as possible, instead of dozens of cheaply made “stuffs” from low cost countries via Amazon platform.

Agree with you. Instead of simply exporting raw materials, we should export value added goods and services.

I bought an aluminum downspout recently from Home Hardware. Unfortunately the worker there couldn’t tell me where it was made. There was no manufacturer/brand label on it whatsoever. Just plain label showing material (aluminum) and measurements. I checked Canadian Tire, same type of product (they just didn’t have the size I need) and labelling.

Until I feel that usa can be trusted to be an ally and not an invader, I’m going to continue boycotting usa, tariff or no tariff. Unfortunately, once the trust is broken, it’s hard to repair.

I do it because usa threatens to annex Canada. I do it for Canada’s sovereignty.

Exactly. Why do we send oil to USA to be refined then for them to sell it back to us? We need to build our own refineries and other manufacturers so we can start producing value-added goods instead of simply exporting raw materials.

Perhaps you can try to apply for engineering jobs in Canada (in pharmaceutical companies?) and get your company to sponsor you? In term of dietitian, Canada has something called Registered Dietitian, your wife may want to research that.

I also read Reuters.

I too live in a very conservative area but I will still be voting and I will be voting Liberal. Voting is my right and responsibility as a citizen and I intend to exercise my right regardless of what others do.

Also PP, when are you going to complete your security clearance? What are you hiding?

I agree with you. Conservative bias in mainstream media is apparent to all except the willfully blind. Especially Financial Post. I stopped reading their garbage more than a decade ago. And I’m not touching Toronto Sun with anything.
