The cost of living today here in Canada is getting out of control.
When I was 16 y/o a litre of gas was 49 cents a litre. This week I paid $1.31 a litre for gas in my car. REALLY? I see record profits from these HUGE oil companies yet they at ANY chance raise the price of oil, which directly reflects on the price of gas at the pumps. Goes up and up, hardly ever returns to a ‘reasonable’ price. The excuse for the raise at the pumps INSTANTLY is the price for crude oil went up that day… BUT when the price of crude oil decreases a little, the price at the pump does not go down because the excuse is the gas in the tanks was refined with the more expensive oil… (2 steps forward for increase & a half step – only VERY occasionally back) UH REALLY? Ever since the mental issue of getting the price at the pump over a dollar per litre these companies are taking complete advantage of us consumers as we are (at least in North America) tied to our automobile.
Profit… When is enough… enough?
Money makes money and unfortunately me and many I know are in the pay to survive life style. Cost of living increases and the lack of reason or an explanation for these increases.
There are no ways to travel into larger metropolitan areas from remote cities / towns without using a car. In Ontario anyway; VIA rail is costly and not that reliable. I know, lived in Trenton Ontario for a while, my wife still worked in Scarborough. We thought using VIA rail would be great, NOPE. Cost is too high and too often the train would not run (snow on tracks – really this IS Canada, ya think that would be a non-issue)
The corporate world is in charge and seem to be able to determine what law is passed to suit their needs – regardless of how this impacts any where else, eg environment, other people etc.
Money makes money. ya
Sad that we are probably the only living organism on the plant that knowingly profits from harming our own kind. Not even going to touch the race item (sad this is even still quite prevalent in today’s world).
With elections soon to be held here in Ontario, I unfortunately do not see any viable party. Liberals make a mockery of the tax payers (ya ya, some of you are not going to like that) and our current non elected Premier feels they did no wrong. Meh
NDP party for some good ideas, supported the current liberal minority gov’t TOOOO long to get my vote.
If John Tory was still in charge of the provincial PC, my vote would be with him. Current PC leader Tim Hudak – I dunno, not sure what he feels is best. Yes I agree, job creation is important in Ontario, as IMO under the long run of the liberal party we in Ontario lost many jobs. Example, one of my brothers has been unemployed for over 2 years now. WHY? Back to jobs in Ontario, yes get them back but at what expense? We cannot afford any more tax increases.
Cost of hydro, natural gas – home essentials has gone up TOO MUCH. Liberal party permitted these raises in costs to continue and did nothing to help us average ‘Joe’. Definitely lost my vote.(I’ll get into my beef about home expenses in another rant soon)
Great now I lost my train of thought, so I will stop here.
Not sure if my displeasure of the world is a combination of getting older and ‘wiser’ <– yes in quotes… and I now see the BS of greed and corruption… Or in fact the world economy is in trouble and as appears to me anyway that the “rich” are getting richer.
Enjoying each moment as it presents. Try & Fail but don't Fail to Try!
Great blog here! Also your site loads up very fast! What web host are you using?
Can I get your affiliate link to your host? I wish my website loaded up as fast as yours lol
Also visit my blog post :: spartan wars hacks
Hi! I know this is kinda off topic however I’d figured I’d ask.
Would you be interested in exchanging links or maybe guest writing a blog post or vice-versa?
My blog covers a lot of the same topics as yours and I feel we could greatly benefit from each
other. If you might be interested feel free to send me an email.
I look forward to hearing from you! Terrific blog
by the way!
Sure & thank you.
Thanks for sharing such a nice thought, piece of writing is fastidious, thats why i have read
it entirely
Thank$
We absolutely love your blog and find the majority of your post’s to be what precisely I’m looking for.
Does one offer guest writers to write content for
you? I wouldn’t mind writing a post or elaborating on some of the subjects you write related to
here. Again, awesome site!
I appreciate your reply. Email me and let’s discuss the guest writing thought.
First of all I would like to say excellent blog! I had a quick
question which I’d like to ask if you don’t mind. I was curious
to find out how you center yourself and clear your head before
writing. I’ve had a hard time clearing my thoughts in getting my thoughts out there.
I truly do take pleasure in writing however it just seems like
the first 10 to 15 minutes tend to be wasted just trying to
figure out how to begin. Any recommendations or tips?
Appreciate it!
Now this is an excellent question! Personally I don’t have to center myself to write, but I only write when the mood strikes or time allows. (does that semi contradict what I indicated about not centering myself, ya it may…) It may take some ‘making an effort’ at first but honestly trust me, when you realize you do not have to impress anyone but yourself, then you have begun & are writing more than you ever realized. Not everyone cares to write or express their comments like this but since you mentioned you do take pleasure – cultivate that passion, don’t let it wither. Nurture and it will blossom from inside. I can offer time with you to discuss further if you like, email me so we can begin.
I always emailed this website post page to all my friends, since if like to read
it afterward my links will too.
Awesome and thank you.
I used to be able to find good information from your blog articles.
Are you still looking in the same manner as before?
It’s really a great and helpful piece of information. I am satisfied that you just shared this useful info with us.
Please keep us informed like this. Thank you for sharing.
I like giving my opinion so you are welcome and thank you for replying.
Nice post. I learn something totally new and challenging on sites
I stumbleupon everyday. It’s always useful to read through articles from other authors and practice something from their sites.
My pleasure and thank you for taking the time to reply.
I’ve been browsing online more than 3 hours today, yet I never found
any interesting article like yours. It is pretty worth enough for me.
Personally, if all website owners and bloggers made good content as you did,
the net will be a lot more useful than ever before.
Thank you! I don’t have any porn on my site so may not be so useful to some…
Hello! I know this is kind of off-topic however I needed to ask.
Does managing a well-established blog like yours take a large amount of work?
I’m brand new to operating a blog but I do write in my diary every day.
I’d like to start a blog so I can share my personal
experience and feelings online. Please let me know if you have any ideas or
tips for new aspiring bloggers. Appreciate it!
Thanks and it only takes as much as I put into it. If this was my fulltime job, it be much more robust but since I do this when I have time it doesn’t take that much time. My ideas / tips for new aspiring bloggers is to blog. Blog often and blog with meaningful topics. Something you enjoy makes the blog grow.
Best of luck and BLOG ON!

Will you kindly drop me a e-mail?
Another one that wants to touch me, hhrrmmm. You mean ‘reach out and touch me’ – the expression or physical touch? Not many on the web are comfortable with person to person contact. What is your email address?
Unquestionably consider that that you said. Your favourite reason seemed to
be on the web the simplest thing to understand of.
I say to you, I definitely get irked while people
consider concerns that they just do not recognize about.
You managed to hit the nail upon the highest and also outlined out the entire thing with no need

Was this posted from ‘Google Translate’ ??
Today, I went to the beach with my kids. I found a sea shell and gave it to my 4 year
old daughter and said “You can hear the ocean if you put this to your ear.” She put the shell to
her ear and screamed. There was a hermit crab inside and it pinched
her ear. She never wants to go back! LoL I know this is completely off topic but
I had to tell someone!
Have you told this before?
