Good one, dairy2be.
Oh, Bull. That was one of the worst puns I have ever herd.

That probably took all of 8 seconds to come up with.

Heard about that. And yet Max Mosley is still alive. Go figure.Charlie Whiting: F1 race director dies aged 66 on eve of season-opener in Melbourne
Very sad news for any F1 fans out there. The guy in charge of reigning in the monkeys on the track in this multi-billion dollar traveling circus (and keeping them safe) has passed away unexpectedly overnight. He was 66.
In a sport with so many out of control egos, the fact that there is NO ONE who has a bad word to say about the guy charged with discipline is pretty remarkable.
This photo is from yesterday. He died 10 hours later.
I am shocked and saddened. RIP Charlie.
Sounds like they are trying to put a band aid on a severed arm to stop the bleeding.So it's federal budget week and one of the things getting a buzz around here and I'm sure out west is the Liberals possibly instituting shared-equity mortgages. As the Star puts it:
Government would partner with certain first-time homebuyers in taking on a share — say 30 per cent — of a mortgage. When the time comes to sell the house, government would reap part of the reward, taking profits in proportion to its equity stake.
There's about a dozen things off the top of my head to not like about this but considering this would be aimed almost solely at the Toronto & Vancouver housing markets wouldn't this just exacerbate the current critical lack of supply issues those areas have and result in even higher prices? Or am I missing something.
I think politicians are seeing stats where home sales are down significantly but home prices have remained high and/or are still climbing and are conflating the two indicators.
