A person who has successfully completed an apprenticeship but has not attained master craftsman status.   A bit of an old fashioned term these days .

What it cost a union sheet metal company for a guy , before Wsib and government fees

Pension at 25%?


Choosing a car based on reliability is like choosing a wife based solely because she is punctual. There is more to it than that...

Why would you be getting 8-9 people together during a pandemic?

I guess going by their chief provincial/local medical officers advice??

Get togethers of up to 10 close contacts were permitted here until yesterday.

Now it's none until further notice (except for "essential reasons").   :( 

No idea what the situation is out Shane's way...

What it cost a union sheet metal company for a guy , before Wsib and government fees

What's WSIB?

Also if company gets value out of having the guy working there, I guess that's all good then right

Driving thrills makes my wallet lighter.. and therefore makes me faster because i'm shedding weight... :D

Because it's NB and the pandemic barely exists here.

There are two active cases in Shane's health region.

That's what I figured.

Different rules for different less affected areas.

Probably wouldn't want to do this in Peel! LOL [emoji38]

Different areas
Go out east of the GTA , where Bob likes to ride and things are different
in our county there has been only 61 cases so far since March

Yesterday there was 1 new case
I think it time to put the GTA under a dome [emoji6]
