Trudeau says Canada is sending more artillery to Ukraine.
You know, I am thinking that we here in Canada and the USA should be directing our money towards our own military and defence systems right now. Actually, we should have been doing it years ago. The reason being, I kind of think that what is happening in Ukraine right now is just the tip of the iceberg so to speak. I have a stinking suspicion that we could be in for some real hard times here in Canada and the USA, Things that we never thought were possible are sitting on our doorstep. We think we are sheltered countries living so far away, but truth be told we aren’t. We are more vulnerable than we have ever been, because our Powers that Be hasn’t kept up with the times. On top of all that, our Powers That be has taken away the means for protecting our selves.They say they will. That’s a laugh in itself. I wouldn’t hesitate to bet if something should occur like a war, the Powers that Be, would disappear into the woodwork. You wouldn’t see them for dust. Today, a lot of people are so dependent on our Powers That Be, that they can’t do anything for themselves. And what a shame that is. All I can say is, we had better start looking after ourselves and stop relying on others to do everything for us. And along with, that … it wouldn’t hurt to gather a few things to protect yourself. My opinion only, take it for what its worth.
In the news today. Rising interest rates make it more expensive to borrow money from lenders.
Well, truth be told, interest rates had to rise sooner or later. The thing is when a person takes out a mortgage, they have to plan for these things. I wonder what would happen if they raised the interest rates back up to 18 % like I had to pay years ago when I bought my farm. We struggled, but we made it work.
Michigan reports 3,215 new COVID cases, 70 deaths over past five days. Now, I know that is in the USA, but still… that’s a lot of deaths. We here in Ontario, Canada aren’t being told any more of what is really taking place. Darn shame, as all they had to do was keep the mask mandate in effect. I can’t see what the big deal is in wearing a damn mask. Sheesh! That is my feelings on the subject.
They are saying that the Liberals will increase the minimum wage to $16 an hour by Jan. 1, 2023. If they win the election.
My opinion on the subject is: It’s fine and dandy to make them statements, but no one is taking into consideration how the small businesses are going to be able to afford this increase. They are having a hard time as it is, to make ends meat. So to speak.
That’s the thing here in Canada, we are dictated to do this, and do that, we don’t have any say anymore. It’s getting worse and worse. Actually, it’s happening all over the world. Years ago, the business’s paid what they could afford, and the people had the option of working or not working. They weren’t forced to pay a certain wage. Kind of a shame the way the world is becoming.
Today in the news they say that a man who killed a woman, and 2 children gets life in prison with no chance of parole for 25 years.
This where I disagree with our system. To me, this guy shouldn’t ever be able to get out of jail. Truth be told, I like how things are handled in the USA when it comes to cases like this. My opinion only.
Ottawa Reveals 2030 Emissions Reduction Plan; Of how, they plan on putting a cap on the oil and gas sector, designed to lower emissions to get to net-zero by 2050.
That is fine in theory, but I don’t think it will work, as simply put the rest of the world isn’t doing their share, so all that we accomplish will probably be for nothing, other than costing us here in Canada billions of dollars. As our Powers That Be, can’t do anything without the working man’s money.
And along with that, we don’t have a good alternative to turn to. If it was up to me,I would take what we have, and use our knowledge to make it safe. We have some pretty smart people out there today. But hey! I have been known to be wrong from time to time.
Myself, I kind of think that statement was a mistake. But who am I to say, living in Canada. As our Powers That Be have made their share of not so good statements here at home too.
They are saying that young immigrants may leave Canada due to our high cost of living.
Well, it’s unfortunate, but we that have lived here all our lives have been putting up with it. Handing out more money isn’t the answer. And that, I believe, is what this announcement is really about. Someone trying to get more money. We have been giving too much away as it is to other countries along with other things that I won’t mention. My Opinion Only.
