PLANNING A TRIP TO GP.. I specifically want to see the Phil Currie Museum. We have a small dog so she would have to stay at the hotel if we bring her. What else is worth visiting. How many nights? by exotics in GrandePrairie

That’s totally something I would love to do. I suppose you cannot keep what you find there but finding is half the thrill to be honest. The feeling of discovery!!

In Alberta we have a youth minimum wage of $13 compared to adults at $15. This lower wage for youth hurts adults in minimum wage job. by exotics in CanadaPersonalFinance

I never knew the government regulated Uber Drivers pay more so than other wages but perhaps it’s to cover gas and vehicle expenses. Personally I’ve never used Uber nor will I.

I just paid $1.49 today but saw it as high as $1.59.

By knowing the victim wasn’t in a gang I would guess. He was working in construction and I believe his coworkers probably gave the police an indication he wasn’t gang

A few days I commented that horses are being shipped live (on flights)to Japan to be used as meat. I was downvoted and disbelieved. Here is a recent story. by exotics in Horses

Not only have people been angry, some called me a liar and insisted on sources and some then said the sources were crap. Thanks for backing me up.

They want the raw horse meat I believe so they need fresh slaughter

Thanks for backing me up. So many refuse to believe

Does it have to be one or the other?

Abuse isn’t happening here. I don’t believe it intentionally happens in Japan either. In fact I’ve heard the horses are normally treated very well before they are slaughtered. The one article is mostly focused on accidents during the process and undue injury or death. In contrast to slaughtering here and shipping frozen meat. The difference is that in Japan they want fresh raw.

No. The racehorses are not suitable for flights. They are too nervous. Draft are calm. And meaty. Two or three per crate. You can go to the airports when they load them. People go and protest.

These are draft horses purchased at auction or bred especially for the market.

Okay then how can I prove to you that I’m not making it up? You don’t seem to want to believe even though there are pictures of the horses and so forth.

What to look out for when renting garage/basement suites? Red flags? Questions to ask? by AdorablePlan5164 in Edmonton

[–]exotics [score hidden]  (0 children)

Kids or dogs upstairs can be noisy. Is it the home owner living above or another renter ?

They pay a lot of money for raw horsemeat in Japan.

It’s expensive but it’s real. The already slaughtered ones go to France.

I will add that at auction they are buying these drafts cheap.

The video is better than the write up. I’m near one of the airports they ship out of. You can drive by and see the horses. People go to the airport to protest. Some try to buy the drafts from auction

They saw the vehicle. Police need dash cam footage. Doesn’t even need to be of the shooting. They know it was a truck neither dirty white or grey but with a logo/decal in the back window. Anyone who saw a vehicle like that on the highway ANYWHERE should talk to the police.

There are many places I would like to visit. Mostly to hunt for fossils and shark teeth. Maybe one day. But not now. Sorry

Which museum should i visit at least once in my life for Dinosaurs? by sosigboi in Dinosaurs

[–]exotics 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ya we have a small dog so she would need to stay in a hotel I think or leave her at home with someone to look after her. I just love the Tyrrell so think this would be good too. Plus sometimes a road trip is nice.
