    Enhanced CPP vs Personal Investing

    I came across this in the Financial Post today. Shared with the usual disclaimer. It is misleading to tell Canadians that the CPP is fully funded and could reliably deliver richer benefits on the same basis. The CPP is not fully funded in the sense most Canadians would understand the term, and...

    Problems and Bugs

    Those incentives are only available if you have the required unused merit points. If you cash in the merit points without cashing in the incentive, the incentive disappears. Ask me how I know. :( :( KJK P.S. Congratulations on 5000 missions.  :salute:

    Global Warming/Climate Change Super Thread

    I'm not familiar enough with the Keystone XL to say what exactly it is transporting. There are a couple of different products that go south. Dilbit can go south, Cenovus is partnered with Conoco Phillips refineries in Borger, TX and Wood River IL. They send straight dilbit to them since they...

    Global Warming/Climate Change Super Thread

    This is the SAGD plant I was working at last year. I think it looks pretty nice for being the environmental disaster the greenies claim it is. KJK

    Global Warming/Climate Change Super Thread

    Water Consumption - Sierra Club talking points. We don't use fresh water for our operations, we use brackish (saline) water. It comes from deep underground, usually from aquifers below the formation the oil is in. The well that my pilot plant is using is 450 meters deep and has a TDS of 2500ppm...

    OK Redeye, Bearing in mind that I have worked at a commercial SAGD oil sands operation and am currently working on a SAGD pilot start up please tell me about these 'environmental concerns' that you are referring to. KJK Edit - spelling

    It looks like Justin's campaign is starting off with a bang so to speak. http://blog.fagstein.com/2011/04/01/liberal-candidates-qr-code-leads-to-porn-site/comment-page-1/#comment-246683 Gotta watch those typos. KJK

    Very true but the cynic in me says that that statement could also be translated to "Western Canada is going to take it in the wallet again!" ;D KJK

    Election 2011

    You have to be care about wording Redeye. Some people say I 'squander' resources because I drive a full size 4WD truck instead of a subcompact. Not true, on the roads I use to get to work a Prius wouldn't completely fill some of the holes. We have to bear in mind that the further you get from...

    Election 2011

    Thucydides, That is an interesting point and one I hadn't considered at all. I'm not sure how many of these countries can afford to buy much from Canada but if they already have some of our currency in could save maybe .5-2% of the purchase in exchange fees and every little bit helps. ERC, I...

    Election 2011

    E.R. The business man in me knows you are correct that we need some sort of consumption tax nation wide, whatever it may be called. The oil patch worker in me nearly has a meltdown when I hear about a carbon tax. Look at BC's attempt and what people think of their carbon tax and they don't...
