Thats exactly what I mean !!!!!!!!

Look at the bike lane threads, how many people were bitching at it including myself. The thread exist for so long and all we do were bitch and complain

Then you look at the Brazil critical mass thread, how many people were happy about those cyclists getting nailed

we are keyboards warriors behind the computer, fuck the government, fuck this and fuck that yet we are the one getting fucked :fullofwin:

We need solutions, this shit is going to keep happening for years to come, even our childrens children will be made to pay high prices for substandard food with no alternatives.

Since B.C. residents will never fully support our local farmers, there growth and profit margins will always be limited, hence their prices will still be expensive.

This is why I propose that we here at RevScene start a "fight club" of sorts to organize our resources and cultivate all year round growing plants and fruit tress in residential front/backyards to supplement our food.
The crops grown would be split between the house owner and the club. The members that put in more work and or resources into the setup of gardens would in return then get more of the percentage of harvested food.

Food is already Way too cheap considering the quality of food was much higher before they started feeding corn to everything.

what the fuck is up with the gas prices?

went up from 1.27 on thurs to 1.30 today! FFFFFFFFUUUU

I'm actually going to be starting a garden in my front yard.
Fingers crossed that the neighbours are going to be cool with it.
I'm aiming so that there will be a ready supply of herbs. No more wasteful little packages for me!

But overall, if it takes off, I wouldn't mind people pitching in and turning it into a community garden or something
lols

instead of loblaws they should be called loblows

:troll:

SUUUURREE... OKAYYY "HERBS"

what about 37K Telus lady?

Every time I see/hear Loblaw's :

Can work in principle, but the percentage is subjective. It's like Soviet communism, there will be people who feel they deserve more and take it, leaving less for others.

QE2 by the Fed is finally catching up to the rest of us here in Canada. I certainly wouldn't expect lower prices any time soon.

You guys understand that there has always been inflation and prices will always be increasing?

Weekly Grocery shopping in Bellingham FTW.

It is not only in BC but around the world. How will you protest against inflation?

Nothing much we can do. But at least we still have a lot of Chinese markets like Crystal mall that tend to keep their price relatively lower than big chains

Farmers markets are year round. There's a winter market by QE park and in steveston going on right now

this thread had me smiling until you posted that. now the stupidity train screeched to a halt

THIS!!!

Just coz lots of rich chinese people moving here doesnt mean EVERYONE can afford all the crazy prices... i think we gotta kick out these rich people.. then maybe the prices will go back down...


we will see a lot more homeless people in the coming years!


so why are people are complaining about foreign investors coming into canada when canadias companies milking us of money?!?! isnt that crazy

I'm not sure if you guys noticed, but the food price increase notice from loblaw's came out on the exact same day as their earnings release.

Do you see a correlation?

im chillin as long as weed prices dont go up

It all started with prices of eggs and milk going up about a month or two ago. Before that, it was the increase in wheat prices (Canola for ethanol becoming popular). That translated into higher bread prices, etc. I'm starting a garden this year in the back yard. My neighbourhood is already full of gardens. I'm probably the only one left not growing my own food. People find ways to survive. At least this way, I know what's in my food. With greenhouse and raised garden beds, the yeild per acre is pretty good. Plus, you're growing enough for your own consumption. Freeze what you grow. Hopefully fishing will be good again this year. Perhaps game hunting. Friends who are into that are always bugging me to tag along. Probably end up shooting my own foot, but..........


EDIT: the only thing I've seen drop in price recently is bananas. LOL, it's summer below the equator.


People used to laugh at me for having multiple freezers........ looking smarter all the time. Buy when on sale and rotate stock. That's how I put three kids through school with one income and live in a brand new house in North Burnaby. All without having to sell drugs, LOL.

Guess you dont eat meat from the states then.

I don't consume anything from the US. I have no basis for this, but I just don't trust stuff from another country. Even if it's the good ol' US of A.
