    Snow Tires

    should have got the dealer to throw in a set of snows and wheels, Irv! Just picked up a new Nissan Murano for my wife. Had to go to 3 different dealers to get snows, wheels and mats thrown in. Still ended up paying less for the car than at the 2 other dealers, who didn't want to deal. BTW - the snows that I did get with it are 18 inch Michellin X-Ice, same ones I use on the Ram
  4. My understanding of the pricing proposal is: $10 a gram + $10 dispensing fee + 13% HST! This information is from an acquaintance, who now runs a MM dispensary This type of pricing will not stop the blackmarket, in fact it will only fuel it. But on the other hand if a person can legally grow 4 plants, they shouldn't need to purchase from any outlet.
  5. The band has not gotten a "handout" to implement this venture. It would appear that they are self sufficient economically, in fact they are partnering up with other FN to purchase the port of Churchill.
  6. no government handouts, just the payments they agreed to in the Williams Treaty. also an FYI, all bands in Ontario share in the proceeds from Rama Casino, not just Rama
  7. Don' t be so quick to judge! Although we can't be sure where every nickel and dime came from, the bulk of this community's money their own economic development, plus the sale of land in the early 1900's to the province, in order to build the town of Pas Manitoba!

  8. Thanks for the explanation Having never had anything to do with retail sales, I am amazed and disturbed that a distributor can exert that much control over an independent retailer. so much for free enterprise!
  9. What's the difference? Are you saying that they can sell (in store) for less than they advertise?
  10. Pardon my ignorance on all things retail! A MAP to me is what I keep in the saddle bag, to help me find my way. However, it sounds like price fixing if the distributor can tell the retailer what price to sell an item at. as long as Royal pays Kimpex for the item, what business is it of them if Royal sells it for less, or am I missing something.

    The 80's

    Loved my Niva, it was more like a 5 passenger snowmobile in the winter! Because it was smaller and lighter, it would go places and do things my friend's CJ couldn't. The hand crank was great when the battery was an issue. Sold it to a guy who I believe is still using it at his hunt camp.
