Re: BC Provincial Election

Re: BC Provincial Election
I think the NDP ran an appallingly bad campaign. It seems that they believed that the polls gave them an unassailable lead as long as they did not make a major gaff. They labelled their campaign as...

Re: Do you work for free?

Re: Riddle me this
One day I flew from Tokyo to Hong Kong. At a coffee shop in Narita Airport I was handed my change on a small plate by a young woman who blowed demurely and looked her feet until I had taken it. In...

Completely off topic, and at the risk of offending those who dislike pedantry, but 99% of the people in Canada do not have an ONTARIO card.

Re: Some tax information
Pity. I have searched my tax library and I can find nothing that says only a previously owned home in Canada counts. That said, sometimes actual practice is not exactly the same as the legislation,...
