    I thought a Yeti was a cooler and coffee cup brand. Here i was looking for a new Yeti product. By the way anyone looking for awesome insulated coffee mugs Yeti brand are great.
  2. How dare you guys argue with Failmaker!! I started this thread for him to prove a point with all his factual union information. Have yet to see anything posted but his union line of you pay more when city says numbers show an $11million saving. Oh yes, Failenomics again. Maybe that is what Olivia Chow is teaching at Ryerson. Failenomics. The course bio would read : How to become a life long public servants and mastering the art of bleeding taxpayers dry.
  3. Well John Tory is finally going to privatize eastern Toronto garbage. No more jobs for life. It will be interesting to see if the union collective put together a bid to provide service. See if they can all of a sudden pick up more garbage in a day. I know Fail, lower wages, blah, blah, blah. truthfully had the city workers stepped up, increased their productivity, saved the city some money, there would be no privatization. But in true city worker union fashion they will complain when the city has to find savings. Now what were you saying Fail?
  4. I wonder what kind of tax break or incentive we can get for running a transgender warehouse? i am sure i can get my shipper to dress like a woman during the qualifying process if i give him a raise.

    Seafoam

    I am not disputing the value of seafoam. I am strong supporter and use it regularly in most of my outdoor tools and toys. No carb issues and i have used it in gummed up carbs with great success. Also with Shell premium also. 4litre jug sounds like alot to buy but i guess i go through 2 or 3 cans per year. I have a neighbour who buys regular gas and takes his riding mower and blower in every year when he has issue starting. Takes 2 or 3 weeks to fix. My mower and blower or plow always cover his proprty off also for the weeks he is down.

    Seafoam

    How much of this stuff do you guys add to your fuel? Every jerry can? For every piece of power equipment?
  7. They are a highly subsidized country. The military owns/controls 50% of the hotels i read. So any travel there pretty much puts money direct to military. yes they have free health care etc. But the large majority also do not have a large disposable income. There is housing issues. If you are wealthy it is easy to move up in housing but the poor struggle to get by daily. I imagine similar to some cases here.
  8. Just for you fail. I do not know how to copy a link. But google average wage in Cuba. Cubans saw their average monthly salaries increase in 2014 Written by RATB Print Email Published on 4 September 2015 by Cuban News Agency The average monthly salary in Cuba reported a significant 24-percent increase in 2014 with respect to the previous years, particularly for sugar workers, according to an article published on Juventud Rebelde newspaper. While the general monthly average salary grew to 584 pesos (some 24,3 US dollars at current exchange), compared to 471 pesos (some 19,6 dollars) in 2013, the sugar sector reported an average 963 pesos (some 40.1 dollars) a month. This salary raise was particularly due to the increase in the health sector, which employs over 400 thousand workers, as well as in some sports areas and in the foreign investment sector, meaning workers employed by companies operating with foreign capital, as part of a policy to gradually raise the salaries of state workers, the article explains and cites the National Statistics Office data on its Employment and Salary chapter. According to the article, no significant salary increase will take place in 2015, since the authorities have not announced any substantial salary growth in any state sector that involves a large mass of worker as it happened in 2014. Then those who saw their salaries grow more were employees in state companies and joint ventures, sugar workers, followed by those in the mining sector and in the area of science and technological innovation. Then came those in health care, social assistance, agriculture, livestock and ranching and in fishing. Meanwhile the lowest salaries were those of persons working in hotels, state restaurants which only reached some 377 pesos a month (some 15,7 dollars), 35,4 percent below the country's average salary of 5 84 pesos. Add to this group, those who work in the public administration, the defense, culture, sports and social security sectors, where monthly salaries reached up to 485 pesos (20.2 dollars). Education, a massive sector, also remain at 500 pesos as average monthly salary, little over 24 dollars. But the other side of the coin is that although the increase in the average monthly salary is considered significant, the salary is still far from playing its role to encourage labor and to meet daily necessities, given the huge gap between the wages and current prices of good and foodstuffs. What relieves the Cuban family's financial situation in socialist Cuba is that the salary is part of a stable income at the end of the day, given by free or highly subsidized services, which are really expensive in other countries. These expenses do not affect the salaries, since they are paid by the state, such as all medical and education services, pharmaceuticals, and utilities like telephone, water, and other ones. However, even with the capacity of Cuban families to join efforts to cushion everyday life necessities, some find it difficult to cope with low salaries and high prices, even more when there is still the challenge posed by a double-currency economy.

  9. $52 million /year we export to a country with a population 12million people. State run. I guess JT was down there to get imports elevated to 100million with government spending. Use his policical contacts. That would be why he avoided the slums and desolate areas. Stuck to the state controlled tourist spots. Selfies dont look good when your standing with poor people in run down shacks.
  10. Fail, just search Cuba average wage. Multiple sources $20/month. 30/month. Many very poor Cubans well below poverty. There living costs are much different. You posted a graph above from 2005 making projections to 2021. Link? What year was it produced? Cuban middle class represents how much of Cuban population? In 2013 there were 12 million people in Cuba. Your graph shows just over 2 million in middle class making $20,000 in their family. That leaves 10 million outside of middle class. There are not millions of rich people in Cuba. So vast majority are very poor. This is supported by most articles i have read. Most have very little disposable income.
  11. You are such a dope. Cubas hotels are over 50% owned by the military. So stay in a hotel gives money to military. Average wage for cleaner in hotel,is $20/month. Lucky we help them out eh Fail.
  12. Listen to you same old blah blah blah. When your hero JT does something news worthy let us know.. But same old selfie here and there. Big effort to travel overseas to put Canada on map on UN Security Council. What will the UN Security Council push cost us? And what expertiese does JT have for sitting at UN? How about spend some money on reserves as promised. But monitor it. Dont hand it over. How abount a Native Canadian citizens council that is regulated.
  13. Been without grocery store since Sept. 22! Where has Sunnybways Trudeau been for 2 months while people he pledged to help are in crisis. Now, if there is a dead body and photo op to promote his plan for first nations self servig liberal infastructure billion dollar boondoggle Trudeau will be there in 7 minutes. 8 if he needs to stop for 3 selfies with a few East Indian and Afghan MP's.
  14. Add a piece of plate as a backer from bolted in old holes and then use a new handle drilled through weaker area that is now reinforced.
  15. You could check Cerka in Milton. They are trailer parts dealer.
  16. Its only an error if they are caught!
  17. It might be cursed. Soupkid, i will offer to do an exocism on the haunted camp for you. No charge but it might take a season or two to complete. Let me know. If any one else wants to help i could probably use a hand fighting off the spirits. Johnny Walker and Jim Bean are pretty tough to crack in a bush camp.
  18. Sounds like you should stay away from that camp. Last couple times you talk about it on here your back to the hospital.
  19. Maybe Sophie and Melina will pose together in bikinis while JT and Trump take selfies?
  20. The advancements in treatment are amazing. If they packed that size of wound you wound be months longer to heal and have increase risk of infection. And it feels god awful when they shove in the packing. They told me to take lots of advil before going to clinic every day.
  21. Packing a wound has to be the worst. Awful to see or have done.
  22. Are you fully healed up already? That was a nasty looking opening.
  23. Sounds more like a justfication statement for a guy who made an irresponsible decision with his 19 year old son. "Yeah I had a hold of the tether just in case things got outa hand! " Like he was still in control. If you gotta hold the tether and maybe pull it for the driver of the boat in case the front end is coming up and the driver would not know how to control that kid should not have been driving the boat at those speeds period. As for pulling tether at 95mph on a boat that was at the point of coming over its proabaly a wreck that aint going to be pretty and as mentioned above no life jacket on the kid.
  24. Whats afirm hold of the tether going to do? Tether are meant to shut a boat off after driver is ejected from drivers seat. They are not an emergency break in a car. Pull it at 95mph! Boat will dive and dig in hard left will it not? Motor has torque on it being compensated by hydraulic steering which all of a sudden dissappears. Years ago We were screwing around in a friends Charger STV and someone shut off boat at 65 or 70 or so. Hard dive and pull to left. May have been right though. I just remember lots of soiled shorts and bruised bodies as we all flew forward. Almost sunk it.
