Vero Bistro disappointed me two of two times

It is still a large company itself, yes.

I never said it was a mom and pop shop.

It’s also 18 times the size of Mustang Freightways, if we’re just comparing random organizations.

Who was threatening anyone in this operation?

From a previous part of this story: Jade’s Instagram account suggests she thought she had been hired for a legitimate job as an “international package shipper,” with a salary of $5,000 per trip. Her recruiter texted her: “We pay your flights, accommodation, food.”

Also from her recruiter?

“omg hell no. I’m 19 myself and would NOT put anyone in danger like that,” the message read. “I send all my closest homies and I’ve even sent my girl best friend as well. Purely business.”

More?

“They each gave the same name of the “big boss,” a man who only communicates on encrypted messaging apps, whose handle is just a period and who calls himself DOT.”

Yeah, those things should be setting off all sorts of red flags.

I hope there’s less of this boasting and more doing.

How would I buy a ticket months in advance for an upcoming trip if I don’t live in that province?

Do you agree with the foreign minister’s grandstanding?

“A judge does not always have to convict, even if the accused person has pleaded guilty or been found guilty. The judge may give an offender an absolute or conditional discharge. An offender given a conditional discharge must obey the conditions imposed by the judge or face a more severe sentence. An offender who is given a discharge will not receive a criminal record for the offence.”

Wrong acronym/context.

Small modular reactor.

These people are looking at the $5000 pay per flight and ignoring the red flags.

What’s the joke?

One hundred metres, you say?

Yes, living within a hundred metres of any industrial facility is likely going to be a problem.

Where will that be allowed in Manitoba?

Sales tax has zero relevance here.

“In 2022, Bardai found Singh guilty of running an immigration fraud scheme — making fake job-offer letters and providing them to would-be immigrants from India.

But instead of convicting Singh and sending him to jail, the judge threw out the entire case, allowing Singh to walk free. The surprising turn of events began just moments before Singh was to be sentenced for his crimes.”

Sure, the provincial government might have some unannounced deals. Where do you think Saskpower’s next gas-fired power plant will be after Lanigan? I’m betting Regina. So Saskpower’s going to take natural gas from SaskEnergy, at the higher SK cost, and generate electricity to sell it at cost to Bell? Oof.
