Everyone Should Travel To China: You Have to See It To Understand It

China is going to have a major influence on what happens in three worlds going forward. In fact, they already have – much of what we buy comes from there!

In my minds, the government acts in the best interest of the community. If a highway need to be built it is and quickly. If homes need to be removed they and people are set up in another place.

Development is happening so quickly that its breathtaking! The Chinese are pragmatic, hard working and want to better themselves and they are. You need to see it

There is a great two week trip that’s being offered to Canadians – a five city tour, a 3 day cruise on the Yangtze River - all for $1,999 – this is an unbelievable value including five star hotels, all of your meals and other incidental expenses. You can’t go wrong!

Mayor Millar Outfoxes the Media: Finds an Extra $100 Million

It seems that Toronto's Mayor announced an important press conference at 4:30 PM on March the 10th, 2010 to take place at 9:30 AM the following morning. All of the Toronto media had a field day speculating what it was about. And I mean a field day!

The two recurring themes were the either he was going to resign early to take another job or he was going to be back in the race. Fooled you all!

He announced that $100 million had been found in for this year’s budget so tax increase and user fees would not need to be increased as much as feared! Got ya!

Paralympics: Be Proud

The 2nd half – albeit with a lesser profile – The Paralympics started last night in Vancouver! These athletes deserve as much support and enthusiasm as we all gave to the Olympians. Please follow what happens to them – they are true athletes. There is little live coverage but there will be lots of “shows” summarizing several events. The first is due to broadcast Saturday afternoon on CTV. Please watch it!
