Today, I’m just an opinionated Canadian writer with time on my hands. The world is a different place today, including the Donald Trump saga that ‘keeps on giving.’ That alone gives me lots to write and comment on. Check out more of my stories at … flippen.ca

The price of Diesel fuel has not dropped much despite the widespread implications it has on consumers. Does the tax on Gas make sense to you? Na. “” Could it be done better? “” I would think. Diesel equipment did not get any tax relief, and we will feel that tenfold.
I came across a “Passport to Alberta” that was issued back in the 80s. Of course, it’s a novelty passport; however, it does show, like Quebec, the ongoing discontent in the provinces.

I would still be loyal to Tim Hortons if they weren’t American-owned. So my loyalty to the once Canadian firm is gone. Bring on another Yanky Donuts shop.
