What Movies or TV shows are you watching (2025)
Just spent the last year watching every single Top Gear (240) episodes since the Jezza & Hamster relaunch in 2002 with Capt. Slow joining at the start of Season 2 (2003). Plus the complete The Grand Tour series (46 episodes). An episode a night before a movie. Interesting the early reports on EVs and especially on Hydrogen cars. -

Healthcare Insurance
Agree! OP says 'private rooms not necessary'. However, probably wouldn't want to be treated on a public ward in a Thai Government hospital. Private rooms are available at 1,000 baht per day. -

Congratulations Canada = Buh Bye Trudeau
Not in the least. Trump has had no impact. Polling shows that a majority of Canadians are unaware of the threat presented by Trump. Trudeau's decision was made in mid December when he cancelled all of the year end media inerviews. This was reported on previously. Also, the succession plan was to bring in Mark Carney last summer, but the. Finance minister Chrystia Freeland who had designs on being PM resisted. Carney will be annoited saviour at a general convention shortly and the Conservatives who are likely to win the next general election will just barely squeak in. People are angry and fickle. They are quick to turn on governments. How else can you explain the Labour government majority in the UK, or the hypocritical international menace Lula da Silva's win inBrazil. Chile switched from a conservative to leftist with Boric. Mexico elected a leftist. The virus is a demand and expectation for immediate gratification by voters. No he didn't. Several violent criminals who were defying court injunctions were held liable for their violation of court orders and their harassment of Canadians such as the large vehicle blockade of residentials areas of Ottawa and the blocking of critical roadways. The anti public health protestors were a mixed bag of misfits. and did not have public support. On the contrary the general public wanted vehicles seized and the participants incarcerated, which was not done.e The constant references to "middle class" by politicians is annoying. Who and what is "middle class"? It doesn't exist anymore. It is all about haves and have nots and those who are wealthier than others. It is not unusual to have the unionized auto worker in Oshawa to own a suburban home, a boat, a cottage and an SUV to pull the boat. The Trudeau government reduced the tax rates for those making $140,000 and less, introduced universal child care, dental care for the elderly and those with lower incomes, pharmaceutical supply and cost benefits for middle income and lower citizens. The Carbon tax which some criticize does not impact the vast majority of Canadians because they recive a tax refund and/or credit. Yes there is a housing supply problem. Part of that is attributable to the free market approach that allowed housing speculators to manipulate the market. Another part is attributable to the business community which demanded the easy entry of 5 million temporary Canadians who would do the work Canadians are too lazy to do themselves. Large companies have been buying up homes and residential properties and have been fixing rental prices. The enforcement of tenant protections is a provincial p[ower, as is stock market surveillance and compliance. This is why Canada is a center for financial fraud. Housing in Canada is still more affordable than in the USA and much of developed Europe. Yes, there is a problem in large cities, but the cost is still competive with counterparts elsewhere. Canada still offers some of the most affordable large cities in the world. https://www.mercer.com/insights/total-rewards/talent-mobility-insights/cost-of-living/ Mortgage downpayment varies from 5% to 10% on the cost of the home for values of $1.5 million or less. It is easier to qualify for a mortgage in Canada because of the. government CMHC backing. Relatively few health facilites on the US border service Canadian patients. Healthcare is a provincial mandate and some provinces such as Ontario and Quebec rarely allow their use. Some provinces that have border populations do allow it. The same can be said for Roberts Island WA, or some communities in Alaska which use Canadian health facilities. US rural healthcare facilities have staffing shortages too. Emergency healthcare is triaged. Have a heart attack in a big city and you can literally be in the ER within 30 minutes on on a surgery table within the hour. Have a stroke in a rural area and you will be airlifted to a hospital as soon as the helicopeter arrives and if weather permits. This can take hours. Show up at the ER with a splinter and yes you can wait 12 -24 hours. Do you even know how the carbon tax works? it is a neutral impact on Canadian taxpayers. The Canadian dollar is not in freefall. Onthe contrary it reflects the export based economy of Canada. If it wasn't for the lower dollar, Canadian exports would not be viable. The problem in Canada is productivity and that is a a reflection on the laziness of the Canadian workers. -
