Here’s the grid for Ottawa An "A4 teacher" is an Ontario teacher who has reached the highest pay category, Category A4, through the Qualifications Evaluation Council of Ontario (QECO). This category is achieved by meeting specific educational requirements, which typically include a four-year...

Sorry, at the top end of the salary grid. This is before the big retro pay I believe, though I could be wrong.

If they turtle game over for society. Read over a report from the late 1960s that someone ran on mice. They gave them the perfect environment - all the food they wanted, water, safety, warmth, everything. Within 700 days the last mouse died. Their entire structure collapsed - mothers abandoned...

Well teachers are basically at 105-112k/yr for only 40 work weeks a year here in Ontario.

It will be interesting to see how this plays out for the Japanese car companies since they have mostly gone _ _ lls deep on the hybrid model for pretty much all of their vehicles. If they hold the course and the Big 2 plus the Franco-Italian-American car company revert backwards on ICE or keep...

Is that like the myth there was no back door into Blackberries?

Well thanks to @Halifax Tar sending me today the USN's take on Hellyer's Unification plans in '67 and the 'disagreements' among the RCN leadership, its seems that no less than 8 Vice Admirals chose to resign rather than follow the directions of the Minister Hellyer. I guess I know now which...

So maybe its time for the RCAF to publicly state that the $4+/- million a year to run the Snowbird programme is going to be cancelled and the money used to train 2 more new fighter pilots a year and the Snowbird aircrews and pilots will be reassigned to more pressing needs. Radical times...

Then they failed to get correct msg across. Was the issue the failing of the trainer programme or the lack of airframes worthy of flying back in 2018? Or both? Over the last 5yrs I do not believe that there has been any publicly made statements regarding a lack of airworthy airframes - its...

:D I used to go and visit Kutna Hora quite alot when I lived in the CZ. There's a beautiful (and morbid) old Cathedral there, St Barbara's. It was named that because of the very old silver mines that were located in Kutna Hora (which I was able to tour back in '94). Kutná Hora - Wikipedia

Thank you for posting this. I will read it end to end.

I tend to move in the circle of those who are defined as the 'rebels' or those that are willing to walk across the street when the little hand is flashing 'stop'.

Thoughts if the American Revolution worked out fine, lol?

Ok, I'll bite. More than willing to be chastised, lol. If the RCAF knows how to run itself, then it should know how to get itself out of the situation that they allowed themselves to get into in the first place. True statement? Knowing full well that the information that is publicly...

Wait, there are smaller towns than Cold Lake and Bagotville?

The Patron Saints of Miners?

Yes and no. The Empire had its first split around 200yrs after Nero and the ‘official’ about 120yrs after that. But you’re right it didn’t happen directly after his reign ended.

More tools in the tool box. Whether we use the tools or know how to use the tools are the unknowns.
