Holy Crap! Does anyone in this province know how to produce, manufacture, or mine anything anymore? It is amazing how many of you actually make a living in some obscure artsy fartsy field or in an academic venue that have no value except academic value.
News flash! This is a have not province. If you want to do something meaningful with your life, then figure out a way to bring more money into this province through your blood, sweat, and tears.
Stop living off the tax payer teat, and start producing. Start figuring out what this world really needs. Learn, produce, export, sell.
Telling your children to get a good government job is most certainly good advice in this province, but it is unsustainable. This province needs GDP, it needs to export, and drawing revenue for outside the province. We need to innovate, not welfare create. We need to grow the economy, not bleed it to death with umpteen dozen different government and medical departments that don’t actually contribute to the economy. —Just Saying

Yeah go talk to some Bowater workers or coal miners and tell them all they needed to do was work harder to keep the company from fucking them over.
Yelling at the people who want to work/are working on small industries to work harder is probably not where you need to direct your righteous vitriol. Seriously, what the fuck are you doing, aside from just saying shit?
Hahaha, it seems to me that your angst is causing sweat and tears to mix with your blood. No wonder it’s boiling. Who, in this day and age, thinks a government position is the holy grail? It will always be a graveyard for 85% of employees with limited options for their future. One can see it in their eyes and their waistline. Sad really.
Clearly a young person with little life experience and no understanding of how economies really work… where is the Donkin mine? We need coal.
Didn’t you hear, environmentalist (notice how mental is part of that word) won’t allow mining, get upset when plants and factories use power and have smoke go out of chimneys.
How ignorant can this person be to bash people who work in academic venues! Are these individuals not the ones who educate the engineers who build the bridges and infrastructure? “Just saying”… just saying your a dumbass.
As a person who does manual labor for a living, i would like to express how stupid OP sounds. Different strokes for different folks. Personally, I wanted to be a journalist when growing up, that wasn’t in the cards for me. I’m not gonna get mad at all journalists because I failed. OP, you sound jealous, don’t be. I try to look at the bright side of my position in life. One being the fact I am free of student loan debt. All the jobs you mentioned require University. Which means, for the large portion of those people you rant about, studying, tests, and a lot of debt.
Maybe the province needs a wall. That will probably make it great again.
