holdfast Posted April 14, 2009 Report Share Posted April 14, 2009 Heard on the Radio that you recieved your first check of 24 from the Feds for being a have not Province. Spend it wisely because I still have family in Ottawa. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doesn't make up for the past 100 years of Ontario paying for most other provinces but at least it is a start. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Terry Posted April 15, 2009 Report Share Posted April 15, 2009 well it was only a couple of years ago that the fed gov said ontario will get some money when hell freezes over, so when OFC went down I started thinking it's servers must be in hell Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cram Posted April 15, 2009 Report Share Posted April 15, 2009 Its going to be even more have-not over the next couple of years (or longer). Anyone noticed way more speed traps lately? As in, WAY more? Province needs dough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is this you or Jack talkin? Yup Albert, unreal. Ontario once the mightest province. Who would think that after all these years it ended up like this. Ontario has a special place in my heart. 15 years and great fishing. I may still may retire in the Petawawa Area though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gone_fishin Posted April 15, 2009 Report Share Posted April 15, 2009 Anyone noticed way more speed traps lately? As in, WAY more? OH YEAH!!! like every other day i see them! tons of traps out lately... haven't been on the highway much lately, but on smaller streets (especially 80km zones that turn into 60km zones)... they are there!!!

kickingfrog Posted April 15, 2009 Report Share Posted April 15, 2009 Canada's population- over 33 million Ontario population- 11 plus million (someone else can look-up the exact #'s) That is pretty close to 1/3 or 33% of the people. That is a lot of tax dollars.... Have, or have not. A country, a company or a family is only as strong as it's poorest, laziest or weakest member.

Marko Posted April 15, 2009 Report Share Posted April 15, 2009 Not just speed traps, but damn sneaky cheating speed traps in wide open transition zones.Unmarked cars are just getting silly, SUV's, minivans and now Crown Vics done up like taxis. Just not sporting. Ohhh that's just dirty!! How bad is it when you have to make you cop car look like a cab so you can give out few tickets. I remember few years ago there were couple supt up cars that cops would drive around and nail street racers, cant blame them for that really but the cab trick is just dirty lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnF Posted April 15, 2009 Report Share Posted April 15, 2009 Hey! That's not a bad idea. As long as the LEO's are just cruising around establishing a visual presence, clocking speeders, and burning gas, why not pick up a little gas money from folks needing a ride?

Sorry to burst yer bubble, my friend, but you will learn that there are all kinds of lines drawn in our society. Perhaps (hopefully) your generation will be the one to wipe them out and bring about the world we idealized in the 60's and 70's, the one all about flower power, peace and love. I don't mean that to sound particularly profound, or naive. It's just that throughout my life I've constantly run into real and imagined boundaries and lines my friends and I are not to cross, that divide Canucks from other Canucks, or Canucks from Americans, etc. The funny (and I use the word loosely) thing is that when we're able to forget the boundaries of race, class and income we all have a lot more fun. Despite that it seems that just when I start to thinking I've transcended all those lousy boundaries I discover that I'm still a closet bigot in some subtle or peculiar way. I see major improvements in my son over me in that respect so I hope it means that for all the big talk from us old farts, you young guns are getting it righter (more right?).
