Canadian Olympians are EXTREMELY subsidized already, contrary to what has been said in this thread already.


I'm totally against it, Canadians are usually a total failure at the real Olympics...

Who says the house value will likely appreciate? It will almost CERTAINLY depreciate given rising interest rates and reduced demand for housing.

What happens if you buy a house for 450k and two...

Typical behavior from scumbag real estate agents. One step below used car salesmen.

Man up, this was your own fault. It is not like the Tim Horton's guy threw the coffee at you.

Iran has one of the most transparent justice systems in the worlds, and the highest per capita amount of female lawyers.

The lawyers don't have a choice, if you are a public defender and your turn comes you could be defending a convicted rapist or an innocent old lady who forgot to pay for her groceries. You can't...

Lately I've been trying to eat healthy. I usually scramble four eggs and eat it with some mustard. Is this good for me? What can I do to start my day off better? I also have a banana after my...

Oh come on, we can't comment on the models? Can I just say this: one of them is drop dead gorgeous.

I get about 600km in the city to a 45 litre tank in my 2009 Civic DX-G. Is this normal?

Any real estate agent I've ever met has always told me that "there's no better time to buy than right now!".

That tells you all you need to know about these scumbags.

Nothing crooked about it. The moron should have read the policy before he signed anything. Nobody to blame but himself.

The Vicious Circle have two pool tables if that's enough for you. Other than that, only The Garage will suit your needs.

Avoid Schank's at all costs. Terrible pool tables.

You can in the USA. Costco have a set price for all Toyota models in California. NO negotiations.

Matter of time before we cut out the scummy middlemen like real estate agents and car salesmen.

It is illegal to have your OT banked and paid out at straight time later unless you've signed an agreement allowing the employer to do so.

Wrong again. They can only do this if you sign an agreement allowing them to do so.

You need to review your law notes! A company would be crazy to lay off an employee who files a legitimate complaint to the Labour Board.

To give you an example, a co-worker of mine went after a plumbing outfit he had been working for because they had no being paying overtime. It is law in Alberta to pay time and a half after 44 hours...

No, I'm sorry, you're totally mistaken here. The employer CANNOT discriminate against you in any way if you win a case like this against them, which the OP obviously would.

If the employer...

The alcohol lobby is just too powerful for any real changes in the laws to happen.

My mother was killed by a drunk driver here in Calgary back in 1987. I was three and my sister was five, we were...

If you are working in a skilled trade, you will most likely be under a union agreement, which is Monday-Thursday straight time, Friday time and a half, and Saturday Sunday double time. Any day where...

Ireland has the most stringest immigration and aquired ditizenship policies of any country in the Schengen Area. Stop talking out of your ass.

I've worked up there on and off for the past ten years.

Are you going to the SERP project at Syncrude with Jacobs? If so, private message me.

Did this happen on 17th avenue near 42/43rdnd street? I saw it happen!

Don't do it man, I'm warning you!

A buddy of mine bought a diamond engagement ring for eight grand back in 2006 or 2007. It didn't work out, when he tried to sell it back to Spence Diamonds, they offered him $500. Watch out, it...

Put it all on black

I used to live down in Chaparral. I have no idea how I stomached the commute, especially from the U of C. Fuggetaboutit

There's a difference here. My mistake was down to typing, as I doubt anyone would really misspell the word "thought" without a hard "t" at the end of the word.

Your mistake, on the other hand,...

Regardless of what has happened in the past, there is no constitutional requirement for the GG to approve any request by the PM. The GG has the final say in ALL government matters, including the...

Does anyone know of anywhere in Calgary where adult swimming lessons are offered? Thanks.

No, if we were to elect our Governor General, he or she would be loathe to suspend parliament if they knew that they would face the voter's wrath instead of having a five year, appointed position.

Though we're not in Britain, our system of government is modelled exactly after theirs, hence the term "Westminster style of government".

Why is it so hard for you to understand that once the...

I can tell without even hitting the link that this story is not real. Get serious buddy, don't waste our time with fake news stories.

No, he wasn't still the representative of the government. The coalition had announced that it would bring down the house, much in the same way that the Conservatives did to Paul Martin.

You need...

I don't understand this logic at all. Harper clearly HAD lost the confidence of the house, that's why he attempted to suspend parliament, so that he wouldn't lose power.

Under the Westminster...

Really? You COULD care less? That means that you do care, and as it would be possible for you to care less, that must mean that you care quite a bit.

The correct expression is "I couldn't care...
