Football Culture EB, The comments by Lawrence Taylor reflect the football culture. More than 40 years ago as a 16 year old playing junior FB (16-21 year olds) everyone was considered equal and off age. Groupies were all considered adults and treated accordingly. This was also true in the...

Bruce Carson Before imagining any action, the Tory government is going to have to survive the brewing Bruce Carson scandal. http://www.canada.com/entertainment/Former+Harper+adviser+fiance+tied+into+lobbying+scandal/4457514/story.html Once the Bruce Carson scandal has had its few minutes...

Caution - Property Tax Refund Very well explained. Caution - some landlords try to get the SIN by saying it is necessary for the provincial Property Tax Refund or credit.

Mainstream My position has always been that the sex workers should be part of the mainstream. That said there are issues. Sex worker organizations do not have a mandate from nor do they represent a significant number - majority of sex workers. The vast majority of the workers are not...

Tax Revenues and Pricing 1.) McDonald's is basically a cash business generating incredible tax revenies for each jurisdiction - from municipal to federal,where they are located. Same is true for for various retail outlets. 2.) County - not country tax revenues generate worthwhile revenues...

Florida Draw a comparison with Florida when the winter talent arrives from up north.

Iinteresting Question....................... Qualified yes. Usually there is a spike around political scandal or publicity as such events tend to liberalize viewpoints. In the last fifty years you can see the spikes. Starting with the Perfumo Affair - 1963, Gerda Munsinger, Xaviera...

Overlooked................ Overlooked in the analysis is how the local US markets and providers have adjusted since 2001 in order to retain and grow their business.

From The Montreal Gazette: http://www.montrealgazette.com/news/obligation+protect+trade+workers+government+argues/4417029/story.html I realize that a short article cannot do justice to all the documents filed and all the various points of view but there is one element that stands-out in the...

Interesting Alternative EB, An interesting alternative would be to copy your experience in a polite letter to the president of the Montreal Canadiens ibdicatibg your disappointment that such a renowned hockey team allows iyself to be associated with such practices and how poorly the name...

Taking Action EB, Saw the thread. Leaning towards the boycott aspect and/or the contacting related or naming rights partners. The Canadiens are owned by Molsons Prior to the NHL / WHA merger the Canadiens were opposed. At the time they were owned by another generation of the Molsons...

This is not a parody of previous threads or issues but the net result of over three months of frustration and hilarity. Moved at the end of September to a small community about 90 minutes outside Montreal. Relaxing atmosphere - only excitement to date was a couple of raccoons fighting outside...

Laughable Having been to GTs, met with various "hobbyists" one on one as well as having published and participated in the scientific and sporting arenas I find your comments highly amusing.That I was at GTs was confirmed by previous posters in this thread - consider remedial reading as a...

.................. making my point. Effectively everything gets personalized, analyzed, stored away for future situations, advantages, etc to be used when necessary as opposed to elsewhere where such occassions are used to create alliances and move forward in a positive fashion.

GTs and Other Meetings Lost in the thread is a more important issue - the positive value of GTs and other face to face meetings. Seems that a high percentage of the protagonists have met yet the results show few if any positives. Opposite of the results on scientific, interest or community...

Remedial Business Some of you should take a remedial business course before reaching some of the conclusions that are posted here. Few business realities. In any offer the "Free" component is the most expensive part and the most profitable element in the offer. If you don't know this...

Title-For What It's Worth Title of this thread is very misleading. Just a header for the real purpose - insult others while showing pseudo knowledge. The boycott idea is rather quaint and useless. Advertising venues figured out a long time ago that boycotts are paper tigers. When the JDM...

The More Things Change................ Recently entered the semi-retirement phase of life and moved to a small community about an 1 1/2 outside of Montreal. Traveling a bit throughout the province, visiting various friends and old haunts. Thirty-five to forty years down the road and things...
