  1. You mean the part were BC is paying 1/13 of the associated costs? Guess I missed that part. Cough cough
  2. Good info there. I'm not convinced an effective response plan and the necessary equipment will ever be in place though. The whole limit of liability leaves me uneasy. What people need to start understanding is how connected we are to the ocean, well the coastal residents of BC at least. We have every right to get our back up and fight to the death when we feel our livelihoods, health and wellbeing are threatened by a greedy, destructive and irresponsible industry. Canada could choose to make a more responsible and future friendly investment into clean energy. I can see how that would benefit me and my children, future generations, but I fail to see how this project will be beneficial in the same way. The money generated will not trickle down to your average Canadian citizen, it will only contribute to more reckless government spending and larger tax breaks for corporations.
  3. Which isn't actually true. Currently BC is on hook for any and all cleanup costs in the event of a spill or leak. That sounds fair, right?
  4. Haven't even started, still at work. You understand what sharing risk is and why it's important, right?
  5. I'm still over here wondering when the country that supports this pipeline, and the emotionally damaged province trying to force its pipe into BC, offer to share the risk. Once the "rest of the country" puts some money on the table and has skin in the game I'll be up for civil discussion, but until then : &^@# you, &^@# you, &^@# you, oh you - you can &^@# off too. And &^@# you Bleeeeeeep
  6. I've only ever eaten Whoppers and onion rings there, so I'm not sure about everything else. Never again though
  7. That happened at 3am, coupled with a case of the good ol' fashioned night sweats. At least I feel great today! Packed a lunch today.
  8. no lies, I've eaten at Burger King a few more than two times in my life, every time has been regretful.... but this one was bad Jimmy. Never again. I feel like the alien from "Alien" is about to rip out of my gut, but then the little feller just runs south and turns into an absolutely savage fart. Happy to report they're declining in frequency.
  9. CONFESSION- I was in a hurry during my lunch break today, had to pick up a few things and decided to stop at Burger King on my way back to work. And ever since 2:30 today, I've been bloated AF and can't stop farting. Whopper farts every two minutes or so. It's awful They're loud and pungent My son is watching the game with a pillow over his face... And I can't help but to laugh. But man oh man am I uncomfortable. My guts are killing me. &^@# you Burger King. Never again
  10. I never realized how young you are, J! Dude, you've got so much ahead of you, a million lessons are waiting for you, but you gotta bail on your home town for a while to appreciate what it is and what it isn't. Save some cash and go travelling before you commit to an industry or field of study. You'll learn more about yourself and the world in 3 months of travel than you will by simply thinking moving away will be the change you're looking for. Looking back, at 19, I didn't even know who I was yet. I was simply a product of my upbringing and carried all the baggage of what I was expected to be without understanding what I really wanted, only what I'd been trained to want by my friends, family and society. I hadn't separated status from happiness yet. I meet a lot of people who were never able to make the distinction because they followed the linear path, the trap, and they're miserable. They've never once walked a mile in another persons shoes, never exposed themselves to the cruel realities of poverty and the living conditions a lot of the world lives in. They can't appreciate what they have because they always want more, when really what they need are experiences. Experiences that make them feel vulnerable, unsure, alone, afraid.. and now they're too fragile to actual experience real life ; they just float around in a bubble wrapped version of it, pretending they don't live in their own shadow.
  11. I'm watching Star Trek The Next Generation at 11pm... It's like 1996 all over again.
  12. Hey, there are lots of other topics in this story, such as politics, socioeconomics, philosophy, psychology, biology, anatomy and drugs. Lots and lots of drugs. And strippers too
