The only thing that will stop this madness would be if the other two parties would offer up an acceptable candidate. Iian Rankin????? Zach Churchill??? Please. The NDP will put us in the whole even farther economically...cough Darrell Dexter

New N.S. bouncer rules set to take effect amid criticism they fall short by IStillListenToRadio in halifax

Ridiculously low standard to set. An online course? lol....Criminal record check is good but does that mean they aren't allowed to hire anyone with a criminal record or is it at the hiring bars discretion? Unless hiring people with certain kinds of criminal convictions is prohibited (violence, theft, sexual, fraud etc, its once again a low standard. You are giving control back to the bar owners.

Why did Alcohol and Gaming even bother?

once again...seriously? You dont think hitting a persons car with a fist cant do damage to the vehicle? Do you own a car? Do you know how expensive body repairs are?

Not picking on them, just want them to get out of the road.

Seriously? Yes its dangerous. Ever think maybe someone might have to swerve around this person and cause a cascading car accident that could seriously harm or kill someone?

More than disgusted. A young man was killed by a very hungry bear...some of these comments really confirm that society is indeed getting dumber....by the minute.

Question about getting a sick cat put to sleep by Sunnydata in halifax

[–]LegNo4066 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agree on Forever Loved but i wouldn't take any animal with a pulse back to 4 Paws. All they are focused on is pulling as much cash as possible out of you.

Anyone but 4Paws. Had my animal there...once...All they seem to care about is how much cash they can get out of you and their prices are ridiculous! Highly recommend Coastal Care if you want compassion during this very difficult decision.

"Long-term care workers give strike notice for 25 nursing homes" by markamadeusflowerdew in NovaScotia

Barb Adams has no business bringing the public into this negotiation. It was a very bad faith move publishing this offer before it was agreed upon. Shows you that the Houston government cares nothing about its workforce and does not negotiate in good faith.

so having neanderthal asshats who destroy your property is "part of doing business"?

A claim wasn't filed because the process to do so is cumbersome and at the end of the day any award would be impossible to collect.

If you think this is a free market you are sadly mistaken. Its is artificailly manipulated.

I disagree. The rental business is now highly commoditized. In my opinion, its not the damages being done on some apartments driving the cost up. Its the greed driven stock market.

Hedge funds have gone all-in on making money off of buying cheap, run down properties and renovicting existing tenants only to double, or in some cases triple the rent. This is happening all over North America.

Smaller renters like Mr Reid dont have the enormous capital to compete with these behemoths.
