@BagelPolling I imagine that most (myself included) hate office work to begin with and the imagine a cubicle as something combining the worst elements of an office and a prison cell.

[Travis Cummiskey @PotsyPastures]

@BagelPolling I have some thoughts, but I will hold on to them pending your analysis.

[Travis Cummiskey @PotsyPastures]

@BagelPolling Have any more faith in those green numbers on PEI after the by-election win tonight?

[Travis Cummiskey @PotsyPastures]

@EvanOakle @TheRealKeean If only,

@BagelPolling Property tax is the closest proxy to a fee for service that could exist.
This can be understood as nothing but a wealth transfer to boomers.

[Travis Cummiskey @PotsyPastures]

@CoopTory I mean, it is true in a sense. But not direct of enough of a relation that it makes a good sound bite.

[Travis Cummiskey @PotsyPastures]

@CoopTory That smaller pool is true, but without competition, a monopoly has no motivation to streamline operations or compete on cost, or allow me to self insure my jelopy. MPI is still using fax machines.

[Travis Cummiskey @PotsyPastures]

@BagelPolling @Prominent_Bryan My experience in PEI, is that the zoning is very exclusionary and I have not seen much difference looking around halifax either but perhaps I am wrong.

[Travis Cummiskey @PotsyPastures]

@BagelPolling @Prominent_Bryan Commercial that you have to cross a highway to get to is not what I am talking about. You can even do this with single family homes. Like they used to do in Winnipeg (st. James is rows of single family homes on short strees off of a commercial street.

@BagelPolling @Prominent_Bryan I have 2 kids in a 2 bedroom.

[Travis Cummiskey @PotsyPastures]

@BagelPolling @Prominent_Bryan Maybe some do. But I mean, I live in the suburbs, and I would argue the same about QOL. But that being said, I have never lived in a non ground oriented home.

[Travis Cummiskey @PotsyPastures]

@BagelPolling @Prominent_Bryan Some. And they should. My neighborhood was a horse pasture on the map in 2015. It definitely does not.

[Travis Cummiskey @PotsyPastures]

@CoopTory Fix the charter and the courts, then throw out UNDRIP, then build baby build.

[Travis Cummiskey @PotsyPastures]

@BagelPolling @Prominent_Bryan P.S. I have kids and live in the car dependant suburbs and commute to my farm. I honestly think it is the worst of both worlds (urban/rural) but doesn't have to be.

[Travis Cummiskey @PotsyPastures]

@BagelPolling @Prominent_Bryan We can also incorporate mixed use zoning I to residential areas. So you could go to the barber or a small grocer in your neighborhood. Not all of the criticism of the suburbs means that they want everyone in a box. It actually kinda comes off as a boomer argument.

[Travis Cummiskey @PotsyPastures]

@CoopTory I have priced it. Keep in mind that the numbers from the non public insurance provinces is an average. You have an opportunity to find better rates in a free market system.
