  1. Prices in the entire lower mainland are out of whack.... BC government has now taken steps but its too little too late for the young people of this once great part of the province.
  2. Great to see. Changes need to happen now.... Looks like JT 's purchase on the KM pipeline and stoppage of the project is looking more and more like a smart decision. Justin T can do no wrong this year... Liberals have pretty much sewn up the next Federal election. Liberals just seem to be ahead of public opinion... while the Tories seem to stuck in a 1950 Happy Days approach.....
  3. I thought Universities were all moving to broad based admission.... Using interviews.... where University could select kids form families that donate to the University.... and kids from politically connected families to get priority over other more deserving kids.... This news is so upsetting....
  4. The crash has started... Feel sorry for anyone that purchased in the last 12 months... If you can hold the property / enjoy the property for the long term you should be fine.... https://vancouversun.com/news/local-news/b-c-home-sales-down-in-february The BCREA reported Wednesday that a total of 4,533 residential unit sales were recorded by the Multiple Listing Service last month, a decline of 27 per cent from the same month last year. The average MLS residential price in the province was $678,625, a decline of 9.3 per cent from February 2018, according to the BCREA.
  5. I did used to live in Alberta........ In Alberta when you buy a burger meal at most McDonalds in Alberta it comes with Drink, burger, Fries and Chewing tobacco..... Personally i don't find women that chew tobacco to be very attractive...all the spitting etc..... but whatever floats your boat Albertans .....
  6. Surrey is the fastest growing city in Western Canada. You would sell your dump in Pentiction and your dump in Calgary and still not be able to afford a dettached home in Beautiful surrey.... Of course you would miss the tractor pulls and half price chewing tobacco sales on Tuesday in Calgary though.....
  7. The whole concept of post secondary education is to secure top educational certifications / professional careers for the richest in our societies.... This kind of behavior is just an extension of what is already common practise. Like someone said above... it already happens all the time... did these people really even need to pay for it...... ??
  8. People have been buying their way into top schools since university's were created...... Wow, is this ever a huge surprise.......
  9. Many of us remember when interest rates were over 11 %. Any kind of dramatic interest rate rise will destroy people in BC ability to make monthly payments.... BC wages are way to low to support most BCers level of indeptness. You are wrong. It will get ugly in BC as house prices simply do not reflect wages here in BC. Get your popcorn ready... Prices are already collapsing. People in my area tried to sell... could not.. Sat on the sideline.. and now once again are desparately trying to exit the current market... The smart money liquidated their BC holdings over a year ago.....
  10. Purchasing any kind of Real Estate right now IN BC is about as smart as investing in a VCR factory or dial up modem factory..... Sit back and get your popcorn ready... and watch the carnage......
  11. Looks like the end of an era.... A dirty era.... but nevertheless it looks like the glory days of dirty energy are almost over... Don't need the dirty sludge KM line expanded now... STAVANGER, Norway — Norway’s US$1-trillion wealth fund, the biggest of its kind in the world, will begin dumping shares in oil and gas companies including some Canadian names, but stopped short of barring major producers like Suncor, ExxonMobil and Chevron. The move was hailed by environmental activists as a sign that the global economy is increasingly moving away from fossil fuels toward cleaner energy. The fund is looking to sell some US$7.5 billion in shares in 134 energy companies over time, including 26 Canadian names. https://vancouversun.com/commodities/energy/worlds-top-sovereign-wealth-fund-to-dump-oil-and-gas-shares/wcm/9e12529b-6e90-422a-9c4a-e0bfa733f50c
  12. Real Leaders have to make tough decisions. My hat goes off to Justin Trudeau who is thinking about what is best for Canadians and our countries economy.
  13. You do realize that the pipeline purchase was really a sneaky plan to shut down the pipeline expansion... right ? Basically now that the gov owns the pipeline.... JT has taken the courts out of the equation. Brilliant strategy...... Do you think Justin will be remembered as a top 3 Canadian PM ?
  14. So glad to have a government and PM that cares about Canadian Jobs and Canadian companies..... Proud to be a CDN right about now when i see great leadership from our Prime Minister.
  15. Lets just say this. I know a guy in Vancouver that is super high up in the Real Estate game..... My contact sold every piece of Vancouver real estate he owned last spring.... multiple homes.... and condos He cashed out. I wonder why ? What info did he have.... ?
  16. For our weak team this year......makeup...... this is the foundation Sutter provides.. Lip Stick on a pig.....
  17. yah right... foundational - really ?
  18. Sutter when healthy is effective defensively and can score off the rush. Good skater but not very physical. He can't pass the puck well and he makes his linemates worse offensively though. We can agree on that his body seems to be breaking down on him... He has played alot of hockey and some guys bodies give out on them earlier than others...
  19. You realize Sutter had 4 th worst corsi on the team and 2 of the 3 guys below him are already off the club...
  20. 190 games played over last 4 seasons... so 48 games a year.... on average.. So i am a no on a 30 year old that can only play half a season most years.... Seems like his body is giving out on him.. This is business.... What would Donald Trump do in this situation.... ?
  21. Sutter is 4 mil this year for 4 goals..... So that is a BOAT ANCHOR of a contract. Canucks would have to retain 50% in any kind of a trade and TBH i don't think any team would even be interested with 50% of the salary retained.... JB has given out some real stinker contracts in a sad attempt to prop up a tanking roster..... JB should have let nature take its course and we could have had possible a few first or 2nd overall picks....
  22. JT has an easy job in Quebec... He only has to not be the slowest runner as the bear chases him.... Way to much vote splitting in Quebec to pose any problem to JT> . I really can see JT being our PM for at least 12 years............ Great times.
  23. A couple of Liberals resigning makes no difference... With JT doing his thing and protecting Quebec business / jobs... He has sealed the next election. Quebec ridings will be a tidal wave towards the Liberals. The election will be over before Manitoba votes are counted.... Brilliantly played by Justin. Great leadership.
