I might be wrong but my read was that Eagle was facetiously pointing out the slippery slope that is "due process isn't for them"

I think it depends on his meaning of "hardship." Each generation has their geopolitical hardships (wars, MAD, etc) their economic hardships (great depression, 80's inflation, their existential hardships ( questions re technological advancement and it's effect on their future). The sliders go...

Incremental upgrade(s) to the same frame/chassis vs completely new vehicle is my guess

JB's advice doesnt come cheap

Re my point 1- the real price would be brought down, just not the nominal price. Re my point 2- People being able to get into a 800 sqft 2 2BR rental more affordably is unlikely to have a major impact on the supply/demand relationship on a 2500sqft $800k

It's a very narrow path, but is possible. Have to thread an absolute needle with increased supply preventing wage growth from causing price inflation, leading to the real cost of housing declining while the nominal price of home stays constant. Alternatively, and admittedly putting words in...

It was rhetorical.

And developers pay for that out of the goodness of their hearts, or does it contribute to the overall cost of the development? It's math Brad. More road, more transmission line, more pipe, more shut offs, more wye's, for less residential unit equals higher cost per unit. That applies across...

I was only half joking that a "no" group should leverage the lower threshold to twin up the first referendum with a sister question to put the issue to bed

As someone who resembles that remark -they go hand in hand. The more cities overflow their borders, the less land is left available for actual country living. The more people get squeezed out of cities, the more the effect gets passed outward to turn nice rural towns into sleeper suburbs...

No offense, but I find a lot of these types of debates get derailed by emotion when people apply societal generalizations out of context to their own non-standard anecdotal situation. As to a source- here's a pretty recent and comprehensive one...

There's your difference in perception. When most people talk of suburbs, it's about places on municipal water and sewer- the delivery costs of which per residential unit are inversely proportional to density.

They can't- but they can dishonestly ignore the costs to gain the votes needed to get their way if said costs aren't discussed openly and often.

Jen Gerson is not holding back, and she's bang on. Jen Gerson: A few thoughts on leadership

Not to mention the (ironic) answer to "what have those countries done" is "trade a certain amount of their sovereignty and regulatory independence in order to be part of a larger regional economic and governance body"

The quoted text is a strawman misrepresentation of "AB (or QC) will HAVE to do or account for this thing that other nations already do, which isn't being considered or accounted for in their presentation of the end state, and as such their models for that end state are painting an overly...

Pretty sure three people will happy because they own townhouse condos with viable rental suites. Last I checked that's not nothing. It's funny. I'm in favour of urban and suburban densification and have made no attempt to hide that. But in this specific case- I think the planning department got...

Of course. No one can outguess the market- except Brad of Army.ca. Imagine my initial post explicitly noting replacing our remaining imports with domestic as one of the safely viable avenues to pursue.

Key words "can" and "at a price people will pay". It's a commodities market, and we're already seeing (via Transmountain) that demand for our product at our price is not limitless. Spending billions to Dump supply into a specific subsection of a rather inelastic supply chain, in the face of a...

You'll note I didn't actually plan for a division scale deployment. The division would be tasked with force generating for an expanded Latvia commitment to make the Canadian lead MNB both more potent and more Canadian than not, plus have a wholly Canadian followup Bde. Pair the provincially...
