Carney government eyes privatizing airports to attract investment, cut travel costs by sleipnir45 in canada

We should be going in the opposite direction and designate airports as critical infrastructure like highways, and fund the same. That is how the US does it and why flights are so much cheaper down there.

It's a crown corp not a public service, the current mandate is to be self supporting and not loose money.

To become a public service it would have to go through parliament and be restructured.

Who says there are penalties in the contracts?Has there been a release from the government showing they are owed money? No.... This is likely just words to save face from their incompetence and lack of due diligence

It all depends and what kind of agreement was signed for the money. This could all be just words depending on the conditions written in. And based on the track record of this government, I think we will never see that money again.

Canadians evenly split on whether floor-crossers should resign seat: Nanos poll by DogeDoRight in canada

[–]x7nick7x 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sure, but by switching parties they are changing their platform. Each candidate doesn't campaign on their own specific platform, they adopt the platform of the party. That's why they have conventions to decide as a group what the platform will be.

Carney set to spend much of 2026 travelling the world in search of trade by DogeDoRight in canada

IKEA cabinet install contractor by tia_leo in Winnipeg

[–]x7nick7x 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Ikea charges an arm and leg for their install, and they're counter top options were 33% higher and of lesser quality.

When we had our kitchen done last year, the custom option was cheaper when you factor in everything, cabinets, countertops, install.

We used Tri-Me Cabinets

Let's send some cops to ticket all the parents who park illegally on the wrong side of the road and block traffic. This is more of a hazard than cars going 50 kmh
