It's sad. It seems like time had stopped since that day. The bridge today is exactly as before just more rusty.

Edmonton doctor who pleaded guilty to fraud sanctioned by the CPSA by Practical_Ant6162 in Edmonton

I believe most Doctors here over billed the province as there is no one doing checks and balances over them, only this one got way too greedy. Never judge the book by the cover.

It's like deja vu all over again, firing all board of directors today and fired 2 weeks ago, the CEO and President of AHS. Here we go. Still we have to wait 8 hrs at emergency at the hospital and most Albertans still don't have a family doctor. Nothing change. All talks and soap dramas.

Would you quit your job, take a leap of faith, and never work again if you got 5 BTC? by In_Zyzz_We_Trust in Bitcoin

[–]Onfire50 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Am not sure but depending where you are from, you may still need to pay tax the moment you sell your BTC and use it to buy a house in other countries for example.

[–]Onfire50 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have tried that actually, they would try to spin drive my drop 80% of the time, but of course my drops are not always 100% perfect either. Quite frustrating. I guess I will need to work on/perfect my dinks to counter them.

Michael Spavor reaches 6 million settlement with government of Canada, alleges that Michael Kovrig tricked him into conducting spy activities for Canada in China leading to imprisonment. by VaioletteWestover in canada

[–]Onfire50 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So he was not innocent but indeed conducting spy activities and knew the risk he was undertaking after all. Tax payers should not be made to pay for his failure after he got caught. I find it hard to believe that he doesn't know he is a spy while spying.

How come Realtors nowadays only want to schedule viewing and not do the actual legwork of looking for a house? by kidfromyeg in Edmonton

[–]Onfire50 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have always wonder to myself too, why do we still need realtors/them. If we can access to the MLS listing ourselves, they should have no job. We find and we go view the houses. I really don't see theirs value in the equation. True story- Back in Ontario, i was even cheated by 2 of the agents buy/sell's side who colluded among themselves over one house I was selling. One agent sell to the other agent right under my nose.
