Do you know how many of these store types are around our province? do you know how many close or don't close during the winter? Any store with Political posters in their window wouldn't be getting my business Keeping politics out of business is wise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I referred to the motels and hotels in a medium size town raising their lowest room rates. The operators aren't on site residents. They all have employees and far more rooms likely being used more frequently than the whopping 8 cottages you used as an example where the operators would also be resident on the property. They may have an employee or two during the summer months for those 8 cottages but I doubt it. Not for something that small. And yet more stupidity from you... of course he has supply and demand to deal with however in past years it would seem that even in diminished winter demand for a cottage country store he has been profitable enough to remain open. Now with the increased overhead he has crossed the threshold where it doesn't make sense to stay open. Really tough to operate a business at a loss isn't it. OOOPS you don't understand that concept, profit / loss. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven't been up north in awhile, can't wait to go to Home Hardware. Owner is a great person, hires so many staff its insane, store is small and he has atleast 10 working the floor. he could do it with 2 easily. Small town proud - I bet he still has all his employees There is like an employee in every isle - crazy compared to the huge Home Hardware here that employees maybe 10 in a store 20 times the size Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lots of businesses, particularly in small towns will have signs up supporting a candidate during an election in particular. I guess you should pay attention and be sure to build that sizeable list of all the places you won't go. But then you avoid legitimate businesses anyhow in favour of the guy who works out of his basement or garage and saves both you and him on taxes.

We hear of poor businesses going under all the time, sledders report this often. and lots of those going under are thanks to government laws/ regulations. Something you may connect with....small town gas stations disappearing. Biggest reason, they can't afford to keep up with TSSA baloney. Double wall tanks with leak detection between the walls. No leaks from the inner wall to the space between but TSSA says you have to replace the tanks based on age and nothing else. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Man is great, he employees a good percent of the community. He doesn't have too but does. He just bought the Rona store and opened a secondary Home Hardware to sell wood and other products.

1trailmaker Posted January 14, 2018 Share Posted January 14, 2018 A 22.5 per cent tax cut for the middle class. A 75 per cent refund of child care costs. 12 per cent more off hydro bills. $1.9 billion in new funding for mental health, what the PCs call the largest such commitment by any province. Ontario's first Trust, Accountability and Integrity Act. PC government running a deficit of $2.8 billion in 2018-19 $5 billion in new funding for building subways in Toronto $500 tax credit for drivers buying winter tires. The tax cuts are primarily funded by cancelling the Liberal government's cap and trade program, which imposes fees on businesses for emitting greenhouse gases, and replacing it with a carbon tax on consumers that satisfies the federal government's climate change mandate. The PCs promise to refund all the carbon tax revenue in income tax cuts Keep giving Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sksman Posted January 14, 2018 Share Posted January 14, 2018 Hey Fail, Sobeys in Milton has reduced their hours from open 24hours to closing at 12pm and opening at 8am I believe. Why do you think?
