Re: Is it REALLY much better????

Re: Is it REALLY much better????

Soooo, you want to use a statistic as proof of your claim, and then can't provide the statistic? :rofl:

You're happy in Canada, we get that, I'm glad for you. But don't just invent facts.

Re: Is it REALLY much better????

So please tell me what opportunities the average person in Toronto has in oil & gas; or what opportunities the average person in Retard, MB has in finance?

Re: Is it REALLY much better????

Of course I've been here. I suspect you haven't been here for very long if you disagree with what I said.

Re: Is it REALLY much better????

I agree that it will impact a very small number of selected drinks (a chav tax, perhaps? ;) ) but overall the impact will be negligible. I think I recall seeing a forecast that a 40p minimum...

Re: Is it REALLY much better????

To be honest, I've not been to either place for many years, but I did briefly consider taking a job in Aberdeen last year. In the end, we decided that working in Canada and living in Norfolk was a...

Re: Is it REALLY much better????

Minimum price per unit will have hardly any effect in the UK.

Re: Is it REALLY much better????

Well done! OK, so you're good with simple folksy platitudes - with a bit more work we might get you all the way up to some easy adult debate by Christmas.

Your inferiority complex would almost be embarrassing to observe, were it not justified.

Re: Is it REALLY much better????

Great opportunities for kids in the UK? You bet....

Re: Is it REALLY much better????

I don't think I have ever said that "the UK is better than Canada."

That's why this is a stupid post. Canada is not "better than the UK", despite what many people - yourself included - tend to...

Re: Is it REALLY much better????

I disagree. People in the UK don't seem to define their lifestyles by a couple of stores as much as Canadians seem to do.
