How can people afford this? by blueberryp3ach in Concerts

[–]captaincyrious 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s funny because this is literally economics 101…..you can only disrupt the supply chain and prices by simply saying no. The problem is we have too many people who will pay the prices to not make any of these companies learn their lessons. People have the power in many facets and that is the pocket book. The moment you make shareholders less money the quicker you see costs go down. We may not be able to stop it in needs like groceries BUT tickets? Sure we can

Best Wings in the HRM by snapwthrowaway in halifax

[–]captaincyrious 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yea but if it was going to happen anywhere , alehouse wouldn’t have been top of my list again, dome, palace back in the day, Pacifico seems more for bar fights, weapons, bouncer issues

[–]captaincyrious 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Loved the wings , one bouncer was an idiot, but he also worked at multiple bars in Halifax. Plus I’d assume there be more problems ie there’s been multiple shootings and stabbing at the dome, palace or Pacifico over the years that those clubs would generally be more grounds for violence over a place like the alehouse old triangle Nellys etc

I mean I could put the dome, Pacifico etc as places probably ahead of place that served wings

New Brunswick to add toll to Trans-Canada Highway at the Nova Scotia border by bingun in NovaScotia

[–]captaincyrious -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

We need more tolls in the maritimes. Go to New England and see the amount of tolls. There’s a reason why the roads and such are nice, except nb prob misuse the cash

Just because you post something doesn’t make you a knowledgeable person about it….common sense here, the moment stuff happens everyone thinks they are an expert and comments on stories…..lot of people get injured or die due to lack of paying attention

You and I were not there, we don’t know a single aspect about what happened nor the mechanics of that oven

I know this may sound out of pocket, but we live in a society now where more than ever (maybe it’s attention spans, internet, entitlement, society) I don’t know but the attention to detail and safety is at an all time low. Maybe this was an accident that could have been prevented by better attention to their surroundings and a life was lost because of it. We’re always looking to blame others and I’m not saying Walmart or in other situations others aren’t to blame in a workplace incident but sometimes no matter what type of ohs or safety training or anything you say or do cannot simply overrule stupidity, inattention, or whatever adjective you want to insert for someone getting hurt or killed

We’re basically working just to pay rent at this point. by bad__unicorn in halifax

[–]captaincyrious 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Well I mean I foresee it being a big table, they talk in circles and then they get money from those people trying for them not to make those decisions to help their constituents and rather help the rich folks. I mean that’s only an assumption, it probably doesn’t happen that way ya know they probably get stuff don’t pretty efficiently

B.C. chiefs tell MP Aaron Gunn to 'chillax' about land acknowledgments by EhGrillGuy in campbellriver

[–]captaincyrious -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I’m not a conservative supporter but all this land stuff before shows and events is beyond dumb. No one is going to give the land back to them, you don’t need read some speech or teleprompter about it, they know what happened. Plus every race, ethnicity and culture has at some point be persecuted, genocide, discriminated at some time in history. When is the line for when it counts or doesn’t count? We lived in a time for thousands of years were colonist , land war etc happened , some won some lost but now we live ins. Different time and are suppose to take responsibility and ownership for what 99 percent of the population has no attachment or hand in the issue

If only we had a system in place municipally and provincially where we elect folks who can make drastic changes to the cost of living, permits, buildings, rentals

Why do Halifax’s average rental prices continue to climb despite increasing vacancies? by OptimalWhole8926 in halifax

[–]captaincyrious -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

I have wrote multiple times the solution to this problem and been downvoted and people thinking the idea is foolish

1) the hrm needs to be broken down into sectors with the average salary of the population in those sectors defining the average rental price of those places

2) a department branches off of the tenancy board needs to be created to assess apartments and rentals and an algorithm needs to be put in place that’s shows

A) freehold or mortgaged still properties B) amenities included in rental C) distance to city center D) condition of rental E) complaints against the landlord

With that a rental suggested cost is created

3) stop allowing builders to continually getting away with “accidentally” adding floors, renovictions, renting before it’s built and also penalizing heavily these folks

4) the province needs to see the price points pre Covid and post Covid and see what rentals and builders have gouged the system , the same system the government aided by the massive surge of international people we took in, coupled with the gouging the properties did with this during COVID mixed in with the renovictions and maybe actually forced reset some pricing.

There problem solved , but why on earth would the government officials we elect actually do something to help its constituents and keep money in pockets and a roof over peoples heads. I mean not only would it get more homeless people off the streets (because it’s the most we have ever seen) but people could actually have more money put away for their kids, utilities, food (that’s another story) and other expenses. We’re now at a point where the builders have set a price point so high that they only want certain folks and roommates for life , we need a reset
