This is reminiscent of when our former mayor told us we could swim in the SJ river if the UNB pool closed. Spoken like a true hockey guy who made sure we have 42
Ice surfaces and baseball fields in the City, and little else

Not to mention a little thing called electricity. Personally I’m with Doug Ford and all for shutting it off

I’d suggest you need to add in gas, very expensive accoms, price of the bridge if PEI, the beer in Bangor was $18 USD for a tall boy and food on your trip as well.

My thoughts exactly. Especially the last line.

It’s Super Bowl Sunday. That should answer your question.

Oops, this is what happens when you’re off all social media due to the US imploding and decide to pop in, and you see what you thought was a relevant, if somewhat clueless question.

This is prime advice. There’s nothing better than those teen burgers in that area.

I hear ya.
I look at kWh per day which comes up right on each bar - say 2400 per month and 30 days billing, so 80 per day this year.
2100 and 28 days last year so 77 last year. That’s how I compare usage.
I think we forget how we live between Dec 21 and 31 - a lot of “home
Time” that period.

- My billing cycle 5 days longer - multiply last years bill by 1.17
- heating degree days in my billing period 20% more than Dec 2023 - multiply by 1.2 (20% colder)
- rate increase year over year of close to 10% - multiply by 1.10
Total 57% increase
From last years bill, all other things being equal

Yassou is the go-to. Elias is an old friend and food is always excellent

I hosted a party at the Sheraton hotel. Louis Wilby was the mastermind behind it and hired me to program it. 500 people for dinner and then stages with music in 4 different rooms including the lobby. Best party I’ve ever thrown. Midnight came and went without a hitch, needless to say.

That can happen with this first announcement - just 3 bands of 30. Someone is always going to feel it isn’t quite what they want. Stay with us.

Luckily, the chat group is “Equal Opportunity” when it comes to putting people’s ideas down. There’s no “a rising tide lifts all boats”. It’s more of a “we’ll only hold your head underwater for a little while”

Sorry to hear! Wet Snow like this is killer, man. These snowfalls in November are the worst for us. Always way more impact on the wires.

UNB is open, hit the Currie Centre Gym at 6am. Lots of teachers there. (Kidding!!!)

Are these resolutions worth the paper they’re printed on?

Or like the Centennial building, stopped it, claimed credit for probity in the decision and still wasted millions of dollars in taxpayer money so they could look good. (Momentarily)

Your talent is just in things that aren’t as interesting as Brad’s. But it’s still big talent. (We’re talking MC announcing here right?)
