That tactic never worked trying to lure industry, and it won't work now either. <BR/><BR/>The Province needs to move quickly to license foreign trained doctors in this country who are currently driving taxis in Toronto. That would be a win-win solution.<BR/><BR/>As to the frink, Peter's Puddle is my sentimental favourite - so far. Am sure there are other suitable names waiting to be heard.<BR/>DJOAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23948057.post-66478154251727783532008-12-14T19:35:00.000-05:002008-12-14T19:35:00.000-05:00I don't think it has been named yet except derogatorily by lots of people<BR/>benBen Burdhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06372169478978720740noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23948057.post-91759252911189056862008-12-14T18:43:00.000-05:002008-12-14T18:43:00.000-05:00FRINKenstein paid for it.

Anyone who has, like me, thinks that this should be a higher priority than it is and although the Province should fund it but don't, and although Doctors should not need bribing, but they do, this is a much more worthy cause than the Frink and its fireworks.John Drapernoreply@blogger.com
