put it to ya this way ... when the fire really took off on thursday they had 21 men working on it. what the fuck is that supposed to do? the wildfire service is a fucking joke. you take a litle course andd you are a fire fighter . my father owned a logging company for 50 years . they used to always be the ones who would haul in equipment, build fire guards, run skidders and cats with water tanks on the back etc . well they dont do that anymore . they have some college kids ddo it now. . not only do they not do it that way anymore. ...they dont want to hear from the odd guys. at the beginning of this fire a family friend offered up their water truck. they declined . they dont want your equipment and they dont want your operators . we have a NDP govt and if its not a union shop they wont hire . so they send 21 dipshits with water cans on their backs to put this fire out....then the wind picked up and it rage out of control. they should have sent 100 men, real equipment , choppers, planes etc and put it out when it was 64ha and it would have never burned anyones house own in the first place
Idk what it will take to band citizens & resources together against the government to get things done.

i bought 5 apples at safeway $13
Damn, that is steep
I remember paying 4+ bucks for a bell pepper once and somehow felt OK with it

The value of people growing your own food is increasing, a good tomato is worth a few bucks where I live even during tomato season

Crazy prices

This is the one that gets me. Get bent over backwards with tool prices. Shittier China manufactured model is over twice the canadian value
