I can understand supporting local and small businesses, but consumers work hard for their money. It's not charity for business owners. Nobody owes you their fare because you got here first.Being a business owner is hard, I get it. But this is a free market. When bigger competition shows up, the answer is to adapt and overcome, to sharpen your pricing, your service, your local advantage. Not lobby the city to keep competitors out and hope you fly under the radar.If you're going to gatekeep, do it with a service worth choosing. Not by lobbying to keep the competition out.
Competition is good for everyone. It keeps current companies on their toes and forces them to find ways to stay in the race. The result is the customer gets some choices and perhaps more competitive rates.
Finally, a spot of good news on the Doug Ford front. It would be nice if he would spend more time and money on northern highways and healthcare as opposed to giving sweet deals to rich developers.
Lonely guyUAE offered 70 billion, our master negotiator turned it down because even though he promised fast projects, we gave nothing but liberal mou’s.Trump would have grabbed that money immediately. Canada is in bad shape and only getting worse with the lack of progress from our government.I know the red kool aid is strong but we need to always blaming the US and hold our government responsible for its lack of tangible results of which mou’s are not.
Let me get this straight you have a problem with a deal where the Ford family might make money, with zero proof. Wait till you hear about this guy named Mark Carney and how much he's making himself as PM of Canada with 107 conflicts of interest.
Blame the Prime Minister he's the one that refused to meet at the negotiation table, while jetting around the World getting MOUs signed that aren't worth the paper they are written on. Carney's has a higher % at FIFA games than going to the HoC. Mexican doesn't seem to have a problem meeting at the table and getting a deal done. You guys gotta get over the whole it's always Trumps fault because it isn't.
And? It’s a free market. One of these local companies left me stranded after major dental surgery and I sat there for an hour. Another one yelled at me when I attempted to close their automatic door. The taxis in the city are obscenely expensive.
There must have been some money to be made by the Ford family in all of his plans. Billy Bishop airport is barely able to handle the plane sizes it has now. This was another dumb Ford dream...like the tunnel.
