@TartanTriton

Thanks for that; a brilliant reply-- worth reading twice-- even if I don't agree with the underpinning economic philosophy.

Agree to disagree about the Fish-Fryer... Lots like me worked that while paying for school too. I don't think we need to attract high-paid workers, I think we need to employ the ones we have that are killing us in taxes-in vs taxes-out math.

We are already a brilliant education-hub around this bay... What type of school do we not offer at world-leading level? To mutilate another cliche: you can lead a horse to water, but you can't make him drink Statistics-101.

I'm not trying to suggest Burlington doesn't use a fine-tooth comb... We just didn't have that power here, nor could suggest free land like Paletta's, just CP Rail trying to pick our pocket and the $100-million later to use their graveyard.


@RTH...

Happy New Years, everyone! You have to appreciate a place where people care this much about where we live, even at those times you just know they are all so wrong. ;) Thanks for all the work, Ryan...
