Peter: food for thought: General Motors employs over 30 times the number of people in {canada} as they do in india or korea, but i doubt we would hear you complaining about "hard working americans'" jobs...... EvilGentleman: I hear ya. I used to love watching the heavies and the swing-wings take off from Plattsburgh when we would be shopping there back when I was a kid. And as a former base brat...... jeeff: ha! igor gets caught red-handed and the city celebrates. people are even posting about it on craigslist. a couple links:

... Jade-en-Ville: EvilGentleman,
I have learned a great deal from your pictures and posts over the past few years. This post prompted me to respond, mainly to lend weight to your comments to Canadian-Canadian.
EvilGentleman's perspective is, in...... Pat Kenny: I grew up in Barlick. Lived at 24 Avon Drive until 1974 when the family emigrated to Canada. Most of my early memories involve ordinary things like going to Redmans for bacon on a Saturday...... CE: I actually like the blue skyscraper in the background. It's quite an interesting building compared with most of the other skyscrapers in the city. I'll have to take some pictures of it since...... EvilGentleman: I would agree with the majority of what has been said, but I will state my opinions on each issue, so it becomes obvious where I stand.
I think the best way to have notification on...... T.O'er: Yeah, Toronto's new skyline's goin to kick ass if our stupid, rediculously left leaning city hall dosen't deny every single awesome proposal.
Eric you obviously haven't been to Toronto. When you talk this way you're...... Chris Erb: And yes, the train station. There is an embarrassment to the city. I plan on doing a post on it when I'm done my Sussex series. To people not from Fredericton, the...... EvilGentleman: Maybe there is some product that was being sold in the store that is not compatible with owning a Canada Post franchise, or perhaps there was some structural, security or square footage issue with the...... EvilGentleman: Sorry to disagree, Chris, but post offices are still allowed in stores. Most Arctic communities have their {Canada Post} franchises located within general stores. When I first moved to {Coral Harbour}, Nunavut in 1992, the...... Chris Erb: I have pictures of the protest prior to the arrest which I will post when I get home. If you were there, you would know that the protest was completly civil and low key....... Jamie: it's true we need better nonclemature when it comes to city naming conventions.. though at present Astoria, Queens, NY articles do appear in the list for Queens, NY

and furthermore, NY [[http://www.citynoise.org/hood/ny]]
lists everything under...... EvilGentleman: Oh, I almost forgot, sorry. In reference to the link you posted, it is most definitely a horrific crime, and I very much hope that the people responsible face the full weight of the law...... EvilGentleman: chiamatt, by any chance, are you in advertising? You seem pretty adamant about this. I am just stating my opinion, and explaining why this will affect my decision as to where I spend my gas...... EvilGentleman: chiamatt, your points are valid, but if Canada can pass laws that state that tobacco companies cannot sponsor sporting events or family-oriented events where children are present, so as to protect children from being influenced...... EvilGentleman: The first letters of Canadian postal codes denote the province or territory (or portion thereof) that the address is within, much like North American telephone area codes. The codes are:
A - Newfoundland and Labrador
B -...... Chris Erb: This is a wonderful post. Thank you very much.
I'd love to see the same thing done with Canada. maybe if I get some extra time I'll do one up. I have some...... EvilGentleman: Say Elicar, where did your O Canada post go? I have never seen a post that busy suddenly disappear before...... Chris Erb: Thanks EG.
I checked on Emporis and pic #5 is indeed the tallest building in Montreal. it's called Le 1250 Boulevard René-Lévesque (why can't they give these buildings actual names?) and at 226 metres tall...... EvilGentleman: Well, I do a lot of posting from Montreal, Chris. So maybe we will wind up crossing paths somewhere. And from 1976 to 1980, I lived in Chatham (now part of the municipality of Miramichi),...... EvilGentleman: Ironically, the Great Lakes - Saint Lawrence Valley corridor in Canada, where 60% of Canada's population lives, including the cities of Windsor, Toronto, Ottawa, Montreal and Quebec City, gets most of its cold wintry weather...... Elicar: If America has almost closed her borders, Canada has opened hers. Not only do we accept qualified immigrants with open arms, we have legislated that certain groups be given (more) equal chances in the public...... Peter: eg: you said ##"I may have differing views on America's legitimacy (and Canada's too, for that matter)"##
that really caught my attention. id truly be fascinated to hear more about this... as someone whose heritage predates...... Chuckles: Sad, but true ....... AJ's is long gone and was replaced by a Pizza Pizza. Ouuuuuch. Yes, their Coney Fries were an absolute delight. Funny how some food items stick in your mind (not your...... EvilGentleman: re: The Jury is STILL out on Evil Gentleman: 2nd Feb 2006 - 22:25 GMT
Thanks for taking the time to read my posts. First off, I use the same nick in chat, and it is...... SM: Next time it might be better to use Canada Post or FedEx.... Bobbikes in Calgary: I can't believe I read all this -- so much vilification and nonsense for a few gems of insight and information. Cyberspace is much more dangerous than I'd realized.
I instinctively side with Leah. I...... Krusty: To:saskatooncycling@yahoogroups.com
This kind of article just drives me nuts. It's just another
case of that god damn CBC forwarding it's socialist agenda and attempting it's usual "social engineering" by reporting on some insignificant action of what was...... poprad99: I have been riding bikes for 32 years and burning fossil fuels for 22 years.
I have been commuting year-round by bike for 9 years. I was assaulted and battered by a motorist in 1990 for...... John: This dumb asshole is going to have his scowling picture posted across Canada. He is soon to be the poster boy for morons. ... herb: Some of the posts above could probably fall under Canada's hate crime laws. I don't see how the images with slogans add anything to this discussion. If I were moderating I'd delete them.... Uhclem: Bkrog: hard to know whether people read the National Post because they're ignorant, or are ignorant because they read the Post.
As any encyclopedia would have told you (Wikipedia here) "Compared to the United States Canada...... bkrog: Mush - and others:
You refer to 'Canada being 12 years behind the US' in crime: you'd better actually check sources and do some research before posting undocumented hearsay.
