I’ve done business travel out of Pearson International Airport (Toronto) for 12 years and I can attest that Air Canada is the worst airline in Canada.
Not that we have much of a choice, because there is only Air Canada and WestJet in Canada now. The customer facing employees are rude, they don’t care and a lot of the times don’t know what they are talking about. The on plane staff, is pretty much the worst in the industry. I’ve flown international for several years and would have to say, that the Air Canada crews and check-in agents are usually the worst (rude/indifferent).

After the Japan nuclear plant release of radiative water into the ocean the technicians at the Fukushima plant plugged a crack that had been gushing contaminated water into the Pacific.
This contamination in waters off the coast has fallen dramatically since then, but chances of the winds and rain heading towards South Korean might contain radiation.
This could affect the drinking water and food supply from fruits, vegetables and milk, not to mention fish from waters of South Korea.

Here are more comfortable travelling shoe reviews (continued from Part 1)
4. Ahnu Drake
The Ahnu Drake is a snug fitty slip-on shoe. You’re probably thinking that these shoes will come off easily, but the tight elastics of this techy looking shoe will keep it snug on your feet. Once, on the Ahnu Drake feels very much like comfy sneakers, it features re-inforced toe-box area, uppers are waterproof and the soles are quite sticky for great traction. Price: $99

Up to about a year ago, I did an extensive amount of travelling for business and many times I thank the stars that while running from home to airport, then to client offices and meetings…sometimes walking distances to find the right building that I had comfortable shoes on.
Here are 3 shoes that are comfortable and ideal for travelling
1. Timberland EarthKeeper’s Oxford

The Magellan Roadmate 1212 GPS was the first GPS Unit I ever owned. My wife and I went to Best Buy to pick it up, they had it on sale for $149.99 CAD. The goal with this first time car GPS unit purchase was to start with a basic one without all the bells and whistles.

Got back from my vacation to different parts of California last week, and I am finding it very difficult to get back into the groove of things when it comes to work at the office. I guess it is because my vacation in California was so relaxing and fun. While I was there, I didn’t even think about all the stupid things that are happening at my job right now…like slow sales, dumb ass management and the possibility of lay offs. My wife and I just enjoyed ourselves which is after all the purpose of a vacation, and i guess I did just that.

As the title of this post says, I am currently in Monterey, California enjoying the sun, beach and the tourist attractions like the Monterey Aquarium. I vacationed in California before back in 2007 and 2005, but I visited mainly southern California, this time my wife and I will be concentrating on central and northern California.
I will be writing about my Californian vacation in much more detail in the future on this website.

Looking at the my FireFox browser, which default homepage is Yahoo, I can see clearly the the swine flu outbreak has taken over the headlines. When, I go to other other websites like MSN and even to my local area news websites like the Toronto Star, it’s always on the front page and this reminded me of the S.A.R.S incident back in 2003 where Toronto and Hong Kong was affected hard.
