    Bobs Lake boat crash.

    First step in privatizing healthcare?

    It's my understanding that they no longer own the property.. It was sold to a developer a while ago.. and when their plans didn't go through.. it was then sold to the town of Markham and Shouldice is leasing it from the town.

    First step in privatizing healthcare?

    I just spent a week at Shouldice.. OHIP covered the operation and "public ward" stay.... It costs extra for a semi private room. Here's the thing..

    Look into it.. but I think you'll find the turnover rate at Fedex is pretty high.

    I'm going to guess that the packages were redirected thru another carrier.. and the old CP labels just went covered when they were relabelled. Companies are redirecting their freight.. we redirected 94K packages last week. The "gig" couriers are going places they weren't before the strike...

    Purolator and Fedex are overwhelmed.. significant backlogs.. limiting what some customers can ship thru them... and turning away others. Same thing with some of the gig carriers.

    Does CP actually want to use gig workers/contractors.. or does it want to use PT and temps?
