Potato Chips are duty free. But they are excess salt.

Let's look for excess salt: boxed macaroni and cheese, corned beef, potato chips, ramen noodles, canned soup, canned mackerel and tuna. And let's not forget salty sausage.

People rioted when the FNM wanted to remove corned beef from the price control. Let's try on the above.

Banning transfat: no more margarine, you all got to buy butter at 4 times the price.

But let's not stop at the shortening. What else has transfat? most cookies at the food store, including debbie pies. A lot of breads, and other cakes at the food store. cream crakers.

Mr. Minister: read the room. a carton of eggs is 10 dollars, and no one is buying lettuce for 10 dollars.

no sugar tax until the foia is implemented!!!!

> It is a mystery.

But just because the a doctor works in both places, it doesnt mean that doctor will treat you or that they will give you the respect they give a client at the more prestigious hospital.

Honestly, not necessarily. I have received poor treatment at the same PMH level in expensive private venues, which I am quick to drop.

In fact, I might choose PMH because, if I have to be subjected to shoddy treatment, let it at least be less expensive.

They rolled over and accepted it.
The food stores put up more resistance.

I do not feel sorry for them,

some unscrupulous pharmacies make sure not to stock generic medicine to mak us pay more.

Once, I tried many times to reach RBC.

I found a number in Canada and told them I needed to speak to someone. They gave me a number to call. I called them back and said I need a number that is answered.

They gave me some direct line to a higher up and told me the call would be answred. They did.

But it is true, to offer online banking, they need online staff. Scotia offers much better online service.

I told someone that, if they stole money and gave me a car, I would be charged with receiving stole goods.

They said they did not understand it and that if had a need for the charitable car then I would not have to return it.

So I guess the burglars who steal to give money to ther mothers can justify by saying that their mother needed the stolen goods.

However, the recipients need to seek legal advice, as there is a statutory limit of 3 months, so if the donations were received more than 3 months before the bankruptcy, then they do not need to return it.

The other issue is also that FT spent considerable funds cantering parties to potetial investors, do they caterers and restaurants have to return the money too?

> Mr Davis explained there also were some seating issues due to there being bleachers or extra chairs added that were not originally in the system for the parade seating.

What a joke.

Reminds me of a time years when an organization i belong to wanted to use a hotel for a reception instead of a potluck meal.

The hotel presented different menus at different cost per person for the reception.

One of the cheaper ones listed can sodas at 3 dollars each.

That could not deter us because the hotel was told to provide more food items at 3 dollars per person and we could bring a cooler with the sodas.

Yup. Can't take the bush from man.
