    Unlike most developed economies, Canada has moved from agriculture straight to services, which now account for nearly 67.9% of GDP. This industry is very diverse and includes the retail sector, financial services, real estate, education, health, high-tech, entertainment and tourism. All these sectors are developing at a rapid rate with retail and health leading growth. The service industry employs 75% of the 17.9 million working Canadians.

    Another important factor in the country's development was the free trade agreement with the US that was signed in 1989, as well as the NAFTA treaty of 1994. These agreements linked several other key countries such as Mexico, Israel, Chile and Costa Rica to Canada and its economy. In January 2008, the country has also agreed to a Canadian-European free trade association that has further developed its robust economy. "
    that's actually mildly interesting, as I didn't know those facts.

    But WHY must everyone talk in code?

    Ooooo, I don't like smokey places. And Kevin can't go in - smoke allergies.

    That's why I'm a little hesitant to go to a BTK or DOD rally - gatherings in smokey bars. I won't mind so much, but K couldn't do it at all.

    Absolutely

    The Boy found "Devil Went Down to Georgia" on Napster and bought it. I think he was a little surprised when I sang along with it. I love that song!

    Yeah, there's very few bars we play in that are smoke free. Most of em are pretty ventilated but this one isn't. I'm fortunate cuz I used to smoke and it don't bother me

    When instant messaging became hugely popular.

    Evidently, the trend that arose during the explosion of chat rooms and instant messaging was one of truncated text (I remember vividly as I war getting into the internet right at the peak of the chat room explosion) and I think people are largely afraid of typing in full-length sentences from time to time.

    As for me, it just because habit over time and it's something I must undo.
