I started out as a plumber and got my ticket when I was 22 years old. I worked for two different companies and learned the business from two different angles. I moved onto heating and refrigeration shortly after I became a journeyman plumber and received my journeyman refrigeration mechanic...

You are saying your country is more culturally diverse, but I believe most black people in America are American and thus largely contribute to what is believed to be the common American culture. 13% of Americans are foreign born, with a large amount of that percentage being from Mexico...

I can't believe Phoenix wasn't on that list. Being Canadian we went there to get a break from the cold and could not believe how nice it is in Arizona. For us, if we could take our incomes with us we would live like kings down there.... $19 for a 60 of rum?!?! $20 for 30 beer...

20% of Canadians are immigrants. ~5 million people out of ~30 million people were born in other countries around the world. 25% of Canadians do not recognize English or French as their mother tongue. ~7.5 million people speak a different language as their first language.

I watched this, but didn't hear any mention of China?

They should hold and wait to see what the holiday numbers look like. The damn roller coaster needs to stop and extending the time period between rate hikes/cuts would help smooth things out.

Preparing us for some much more serious in the future. Look for more checkpoints in your local community!

Plumbing infrastructure is more expensive to incorporate into every dwelling than information infrastructure. With 1.x billion people around, which would you rather have?

Would you rather mine nickel or produce computer motherboards to sell? Doing both would be great.

Things change so fast, I hope the Chinese don't start to modernized their military too much in the next decade. It might make the US military(circa 1980's-present) look foolish in 2020.

No she must not be helped, she must help herself.

You believe that 50% of women stay at home because they can't afford it? Did you know that in Canada 51% of the entire workforce is women? 50% of women might stay at home for the first couple of years of a child's life, but very few women "stay at home" for their entire lives. As far as not...
