touchy

gee, that is coincidental with Justin's election.

wasn't that about the time we started belittling women who were electing to stay home and start families. Instead of considering motherhood a career we made it seem like the end of the line.

and one more unscientific observation. when a 1970s vintage house on a 60 ft. lot sells in the Golden Horseshoe area it is often torn down and replaced by either two semis at the conventional 1200 sq. ft. or by a single home that is in the neighbourhood of 2500 or greater. In both cases there...

top of my head, I told you. I guess you missed it. Plus I read the real estate and compare the house sizes with the age. Plus I was brought up in Scarborough as a baby boomer and lived in one or two. I have watched subdivisions being built and seen the average size increase proportionately...

off the top of my head: baby boomers house size less than 1200 sq. ft. GenX house size was between 1500 and 2000. Millennials are up to 2500. No one can afford anymore so the sizes are going back down but it will take a while. They did it to themselves.

answer the question, who are these people who are hoarding their entitlements

If I were Taiwan I would be very worried. Beijing has got to be watching and learning. With the costs involved being relatively low China could easily put together a few thousand or more UAVs to lead the assault

We didn't create those programmes and for the most part we didn't profit from them. Those programmes were vote buying efforts to keep us voting liberal. Each of us has a circle of maybe 100. I don't know about your group but there isn't a single one of mine who had anything to do with...

and perhaps, if us old folks were observing government behaviour that wasn't indulging itself in profligate spending we would agree with you. Then again, perhaps not as we side with our beloved ex-pm: I am entitled to my entitlements.

Don't think so.

now we just need one or two more

In one way, you can blame the government. You have to be 19 to handle alcohol and all the grocery stores and variety stores are now stocking them. Our local Sobey's used to have about a dozen students working but as they reach 19 they aren't being replaced by 16 year olds anymore. Plus most...

Michael Ma was probably just obeying orders. His riding has been a cesspool for years now.

he just got rid of one

I didn't create it nor did most of my compatriots. We did prosper from it but that was pure luck like starting at the bottom of a pyramid scheme. It definitely wasn't planned. And I started off by declaring it to be heresy. We tend to blame others and circumstances instead of sucking up and...

here's a bit of a heresy for you. If kids had put their phones down and got off their asses they would be making out just fine. If families had been content with 1100 sq. ft. for a house along with the 2 kids they would be fine. If you (the royal you) were content with a 16 ft. aluminum with...

So what? Our careful savings and budgeting means that our children have a chance at owning their own homes; which they do along with the associated mortgage payments. It means their children have a chance at advanced education with a little help from their own parents. Your 76000 windfall tax...

I have no idea of your age but I date back to the 70s and 80s. Our first house cost us $52,000: a little more than two times my annual income. That income was enough that my wife was able to be a full time mom. Our current home which we bought several decades ago cost us 3X my annual salary...

strictly on the side, your bespoke fleet is twice the size of our entire air force.
