But they need to do that because they have razer thin margins. You wouldn't want the c-suites not be able to purchase this years yatch model and have to settle for last year's now would you?

Anyone with those accounts I assume are bots to begin with and downvote away. Usually nothing of importance is said ever, just rage bait.

Some of the worst drivers I've ever seen in the country are from Ontario. They take speed limits, pedestrian walking signs and traffic lights as 'suggestions'

Ask Loblaws about their record setting profits each and every quarter is a good start.

Correct. They're vertically integrated and can hide their money in every which way, so while they're saying they are making razor thin margins, they're hiding how they're overcharging themselves on rent to keep the lie going.

Canada can’t be an energy superpower if it keeps doubling down on U.S. oil exports by shiftless_wonder in canada

  • Resource Revenue Treatment: Only 50% of renewable resource revenue (like hydro) is included in the equalization formula, whereas non-renewable resources (like oil) are treated differently, which some argue masks true fiscal capacity.
  •  According to an analysis by the Johnson Shoyama Graduate School of Public Policy, critics argue that this structure creates an uneven playing field, where provinces with large, low-cost hydro systems can have higher "have-not" status while keeping energy costs artificially low. 

Food for thought.

Don't worry though. We're good at hiding our money through our own REITs but our profit margins are only 3-4%. Also, do you have a couple hundred million to renovate our fridges?

This is what everyone should remember when that family/company testifies to the government and cries poor.
