Christy Clark takes aim at Alberta, says B.C. can become Canada’s economic engine Read more: http://www.theprovince.com/business/Premier+takes+Alberta+says+become+Canada+economic+engine/7400360/story.html#ixzz29lYNxk1U So, I apologize for not being quicker to comment on this important issue. Obviously from previous news reports issues have cropped up between Alberta and British Columbia. And the Federal Government has decided to step aside as middle man…

http://fullcomment.nationalpost.com/2012/10/19/matt-gurney-torontos-crumbling-expressway-way-worse-than-we-thought/ Outside professional consultations with appropriate experts to inspect and report are still required regardless. Costs increase are still there and calling them when in dire need increases costs even more. Question for Toronto – Is the City of Toronto waiting for disasters à la Province du Quebec – ie – Boulvard de la Concorde…

http://www.calgarysun.com/2012/10/18/food-inspectors-continue-work-despite-takeover-of-brooks-alberta-beef-plant-at-the-centre-of-e-coli-scare Let’s move beyond this issue now and get the plant, workers and the community back online. Okay if time is needed to implement and insure safety protocols are all in place, but we should not forget that other meat processing plants have been faced with increased pressures to make-up for lost ground at XL.…

http://www.ottawacitizen.com/business/Mark+Sutcliffe+case+casino/7412200/story.html I’ll put forth another valid argument on the subject of NOT having any need for Casinos, whether especially in Ottawa and Ontario. In a city that has successfully implemented NON-SMOKING bylaws to help wean people off smoking addictions, but especially with an eye to control, manage and hopefully reduce and stop people from smoking…

http://www.ottawasun.com/2012/10/18/tory-mpp-lisa-macleod-demands-inquiry-into-olgs-casino-plans-with-legislature-prorogued Lisa MacLeod is right. We don’t need more Casinos in Ontario. Definitely wrong idea to make more people addicted or on their way to more addictions spend money they don’t need to lose and get into debt or trouble. Casinos give a false sense of hope to those who think that luck is on…

Beef recall was likely ‘death knell’ for revenue-starved XL Foods Read more: http://www.calgaryherald.com/business/Beef+recall+likely+death+knell+revenue+starved+Foods/7411264/story.html#ixzz29hQb03cB Hey, I’m most likely not the best math whiz on the planet, however business wise – 25% interest – YIKES, no wonder the old Wendy’s Ad – where’s the Beef !!! is now making sense. With that kind of interest rate, I’ll…

http://www.ottawasun.com/2012/10/17/ontario-electricity-bills-to-see-drop-oeb-says Was this press release before or after the 50,000 pages of defunct energy plants in the Ontario legislature. In either case, seems to me like someone’s trying to pull the wool over Ontario electricity users eyes and try to fool them. Let me see more than 1 real person’s name on an average electricity…

http://www.ottawasun.com/2012/10/17/survey-your-thoughts-on-ottawa-budget-and-city-services With the Ontario premier instant poof, Ottawa had better tighten it’s belt tighter than 3 garbage bag’s worth if trying to come up with something reasonable in terms of taxes. Cadillac days are definitely over. Time to consider importing Volkswagons as the new reality.

http://www.ottawasun.com/2012/10/17/up-to-30-arrested-child-rescued-as-part-of-massive-canadian-child-porn-bust Okay great, now the only question I have is how can stuff like this go on for so long – “…. The abuse spanned five years, going back to when the child was 8 or 9 years old, police told media.”….. I’m not a professional, but seems to me that the children who have…

http://www.ottawacitizen.com/opinion/editorials/free+ride/7405821/story.html Let’s see if the argument holds economically over time with the tax bills. This should be interesting. To date, I’ve never seen anything any city initiative that has actually resulted in lower tax bills over time due to espousing great new ideas, least of all the environment in which we see continual gas price…
