    Toronto George Condos and Towns, Leslieville | 30.17m | 8s | Rockport Group | RAW Design

    Quick objective observations from the meeting last night: - Roughly 22 people attended including Paula Fletcher, a representative from McMahon and a representative from the Friends of the Beaches group - They are the vocal minority for the reason that they are small portion of the total...

    The Samsung deal will increase bills $65 a year

    The OPEC cartel (among others) As for the banking industry, it is by far the least laissez-faire sector of the U.S. economy; it is a cartel arrangement overseen by the Federal Reserve and shot through with monopoly privilege, bailout protection, and moral hazard.

    The Star: Cohn: Ontario's debt is soaring, and province is falling behind

    The only way economy rebounds is by eliminating dependency on government. Which is a catch 22 like in Greece— when %50 rely on some form of subsidy and have an entitlement mentality, governments won't cut anything because they'll lose an election. Which means the debt spiral continues the grow...

    How will the US "Debt Ceiling" crisis affect Canada?

    Heh, it's theatre. The U.S. government has chosen to default by inflation or, putting it another way, by devaluing the dollar. This is going to cause more damage than meeting its obligations and trying to balance the budget (which is laughable at this point). The next upcoming crises will be a...

    Save Our Libraries!

    While I agree with with your sarcastic reply (and side stepping the cause of tuition increases), my first sentence in the previous post was a personal account.

    How Can Toronto improve? How can Toronto become a better city overall?

    Why not just make sure the Provincial and Federal governments have less jurisdiction over Toronto? Or even seceding. More taxation will undermine growth. My company took a big hit from the HST; I had to lay a couple of people off and cut my own salary. Another tax would shut down my business and...

    Morally/ethically bankrupt government

    Hehe. Oh Noez! :-0 But if you care to refute, then by all means. Logically, government is undeniably unethical. I assume for most people though, it comes down to the question practicality vs ethicality.

    Morally/ethically bankrupt government

    The institution of government is inherently ethically bankrupt. This should be obvious yes, but support is so high mostly in part due to indoctrination at schools.

    Queen's Park North Revitalization

    Transfer the property from the state and give it to the park workers and management, who in turn will have to abandon the government dole in order to run it themselves. That's the kind of revitilization I'd like to see :-)

    Toronto West Harbour City | ?m | 36s | Plaza | BDP Quadrangle

    The last shot looks like a bigger North York, walking down Doris Ave. The building itself looks like a love child from a Ryugyong groupie :-D
