I thought you name was Justin hahahahahI have never really had to work for a living, as I rely on my fathers money, who relied on his fathers money. I “work“ for him now at a token government position he gave me, even though I have no idea what I am doing. He can do that type of nepotism without consequence, as he has a very powerful position in government south of the border. Currently, he has been in a bit of a battle just for getting a foreign country to help dig up dirt on a guy that wants to take his job. I don’t see what the big deal is...sheesh. If it’s not one thing, it’s another. He also has hired my sister and her husband in government positions, and guess what....they don’t really know what they are doing either. Ahh, the life of privilege... It’s great. Speaking of my sister, Dad thinks she is HOT, and I must agree. He was actually recorded saying that if she wasn’t his daughter, he would date her. Don’t let that stop you, dad..
He has fooled the citizens there that he is a great leader, even though time after time after time, evidence suggests otherwise. Anyway, I digress. Love the thread, Tango.

Cabot Trail is a wonderful drive. Pick a weekend without fog and the views are spectacular. Nothing I'd like better than to pull into the Lick-A- Chick in my Vette...Basically had 2 jobs all of my life with 38 years in with Canada Post as a letter carrier (retired from that 2 years ago) and still run my own personal real estate rental business. Have a wonderful family and I'm addicted to travel.Love cars and motorcycles. Born and raised in beautiful Cape Breton. If you have not driven around the famous Cabot Trail ,it is a must !! If I'm fortunate enough to receive c8 this summer i would gladly assist any corvette enthusiasts are around trail.. We are all very fortunate !!
I have several friends that work at the Cambridge plant and the Woodstock plant. But asking if you know them would be like when I was down to Florida one time for Daytona Bike Week. Chatted with a couple there and they asked where we were from and I said Canada. They said Canada? We have a friend from Canada. Do you know so and so? I said mmmmm, not sure but the name does sound familiar. So trying to keep a straight face they said, well if you see him say hello from us. I said ok I will. LOL.Currently working at toyota cambridge for 22 years started working on line. Now the last 18 years i deliver parts to the line on towmotor and forklift. I got 7 more years till I retire, freedom 55!

Don't get me started on Canadian gallons vs American gallons. Even that messes me up. LOL.Lol.... No surprise there.... Have dealt with many suppliers from the US and totally enjoyed playing with their heads.... One of my favs is when one told me he would call me back with an answer to my inquiry in 2 hours, I asked 2 of their hours, or 2 Canadian hours... When I got the whaaaaaaa?, I then had to explain that the Canadian hour, much like how our gallon is larger, our hours are longer than the American hour..... After a confused mumble he suggested he would just call and leave a message if I wasn't there... hahahaha...
Long time ago in a previous career I ended up in St. Lucia with a Twin Otter. We needed fuel. Fuel for operations was calculated by pounds. So the local fuel provider was selling by the US gallon, pumping it in IMP gallons, charging us in local St. Lucian dollars converted to USD and I needed 2,000 pounds. Lol.Don't get me started on Canadian gallons vs American gallons. Even that messes me up. LOL.

I seem to recall an Air Canada flight making an unscheduled glider landing in Gimli Manitoba over this nonsense after our metrification.Long time ago in a previous career I ended up in St. Lucia with a Twin Otter.
