@danielfoch Between 2010 and 2020 a good used car could be had for about $5000. My 08 saturn Astra, 13' Fiat 500 Turbo, and a couple others were $5k. The beaters are still around, they just cost $10k now. Used cars got very expensive and havent rebounded to their long term average yet.

@Cmdr_Hadfield Dublin, Ontario right?

[Mackenzie Marsh @GeoSpacedOut]

@Rae_Matt @fordnation Show us some real results. You keep allocating these funds but the programs arent working. New projects are stalling not ramping up. I'm in the land development and construction fields and I just got laid off. Now I have to pack my bags and start over again somewhere else.

[Mackenzie Marsh @GeoSpacedOut]

New job. New city. New apartment. Can't keep me down for long.

[Mackenzie Marsh @GeoSpacedOut]

@AshleyFoxRPN @Mikeggibbs @Rae_Matt Nobody from his campaign came to see me during the last election. They seem to avoid apartment buildings.

[Mackenzie Marsh @GeoSpacedOut]

@AshleyFoxRPN @Rae_Matt Not sure what he would do, he doesnt respond much.

[Mackenzie Marsh @GeoSpacedOut]

Just got laid off.

[Mackenzie Marsh @GeoSpacedOut]

@AshleyFoxRPN Thanks. Nobody is building houses so nobody needs a survey. Work has been slow for almost 2 years but this summer it dwindled to a trickle. Feels like im getting kicked out of a city im trying to help build.

[Mackenzie Marsh @GeoSpacedOut]

@alanthefisher Or just buy a normal compact car and rent a van twice a year when I need to move something large. The only reason anyone NEEDS a big truck is if you have the name of a business on the side, or farm plates on the back.

@MikePMoffatt I had a friend on fourth ave and when i visited them for the first time, it amazed me that you could live somewhere and walk to a pub and grocery store. First time I had experienced that after living in suburban oshawa my whole life. I love the glebe, but could never afford it.

@robertbenzie Only Americans fly flags that big. I know Ontario is the provincial equivalent of a used car lot but we don't have to lean into it so hard all the time.

@milesintransit1 The package delivery service is a lifeline up there. A lot of the time its the cheapest way to get big-ish items anywhere in northern ontario that doesnt involve driving it there yourself.

[Mackenzie Marsh @GeoSpacedOut]

@ThunderWolf08 I'd like to add the return of ONR Northlander from Toronto to Timmins to this list. Back from the dead after 14 long years.

[Mackenzie Marsh @GeoSpacedOut]

@ronmortgageguy My mom says it's always been this way and that I don't work hard enough and want everything handed to me. Maybe it's just that?

[Mackenzie Marsh @GeoSpacedOut]

@RM_Transit Theres a $14.95 service fee for even thinking about that.

[Mackenzie Marsh @GeoSpacedOut]

@PlannerSean @JohnPasalis It's probably because he knows the promised supply isn't coming. Ever.

[Mackenzie Marsh @GeoSpacedOut]

@TheB1M Hundreds of thousands of houses in Canada. I know it sounds crazy but just lots of houses. The kind people want to live in and raise a family in.

[Mackenzie Marsh @GeoSpacedOut]

@beynate It still sucks that we had our first housing minister that could actually communicate the issues in a way that actually made me feel like someone understood the struggles of young people, and then traded it for more of the "we gotta protect the nest egg of the richest generation"

[Mackenzie Marsh @GeoSpacedOut]

@gregorrobertson We traded Nate Erskine Smith for this guy? I felt like we were finally getting somewhere better than "no, prices shouldn't fall" attitude. It's like having Ahmed Hussein back on the file.

[Mackenzie Marsh @GeoSpacedOut]

@Rae_Matt Congrats on the win. Well done to you and your campaign staff.
