    buying a house

    Renting vs buying Lot of variables in play that have to be taken into account. I used to be a home owner and now I am a renter so ill give you my perspective. With the current CMHC setup, 5% down mortgages, its a lot of risk to be a buyer right now, if the govt at any point, changes that to...

    Hiring Immigrants instead of " our own people "

    In my field, i have worked with many foreign born - immigrants in the mechanical engineer/skilled trade area(s). My personal experience has been that many people do in fact lie about previous experience and do not have adequate skills to do the most basic of jobs. I have family that also work...

    Uniform Policing - Best Division - How to get involved?

    I dont beleive that toronto fire is short staffed, but I do not want to see job cuts there either way. I think that the police/fire/ should all stop the scaremongering, when ever the idea that job cuts might happen-- however unlikely that might be, they all start with the " but people will...

    So 26 jobs for 3000 applicants = 1 job for every 115 applicants, so yea, my numbers are off. Figure that every year since then, there have been how many students graduating from Fire/EMS/Police foundation courses? how many fire jobs have come up since then? Police/Fire/EMS courses in college...

    Neighbour parking on our side if Drive - what to do?

    Sounds like your communication line has already broken down. I would list your options as either build a fence-- but dont get made in that fence gets damaged-- assuming its at all viable if a fence is not an option, there are plastic control style pods-- they might be an option, they are the...

    Oakville Author beaten for insulting Islam.

    I love the assumption that the writer of the book was clearly trying to inflame another ethnic/religous group. Why is that material at all to the facts? Writer has right under our charter to speak and express opinon freely-- regardless of weither we agree with it or not. Turbo, you are on...

    What would you expect to pay for a reliable used car?

    I would even say that for $5000 maybe even a little less you should be able to get something reliable. Just try to stick to cars that are one owner, lower km and have all the service records. For $5000 it will be a few years old, some examples...
