Why this blog?
Until this moment I have been forced to listen while media and politicians alike have told me "what Canadians think". In all that time they never once asked.
This is just the voice of an ordinary Canadian yelling back at the radio -
"You don't speak for me."

That would be “Implode”
Just to add more dung to the heap…
A client I worked with in the past was a university prof – Head of faculty, tenured, all of that jazz. His annual salary exceeded $150,000.00. He was starting a business – a business that would require him to be heavily involved in the set-up/operations for at least Year 1. When I informed him of this, he said “not a problem.” Apparently he was going to take a 1-year sabbatical from the university… fully paid. And if that weren’t enough, he elaborated and said that he was allowed to take such a sabbatical EVERY SEVEN YEARS!
Over-funded, over-staffed, overblown, underwhelming education institutes like universities can’t crash soon enough…
They just need to “Hollande-ize” the super rich over there!
That’s standard practice, Just-a-Guy, and has been for years. At one time it allowed academics to get out of the University and do some research in the real world, or to attend another university where they could pile on another degree. The discovery that they could used their sabbatical to enter the world of consulting is more recent.
They spend their other six years applying for government grants anyway, so in the larger measure of things, it isn’t a big deal.
It is either the Big Crunch, or the heat death of the universe. We’re not sure which, yet.
Well, the Big Crunch works for this cartoon as well as implode.
Living off other people’s money works well enough for freeloading farmers, right rat?
That’s River Rat to you Fill and I wouldn’t know as I’ve always made my own way in this world. You on the other hand get cheaper food because we’re not paid enough to make a decent living from our hard work on the farm. Kinda reminds me of the NEP only in agriculture instead of oil.
