When people asked to reallocate funds from Police in Hamilton in June 2020, this happened. My view, the issue of resisting changes to police budget is far more systemic than people think. They invested in fighting it. @samnabi @ReallocateW @OfAcb @570NEWS

Stephen Harper invested in prisons. Corruption, collusion and bid rigging involved Richard Bird of Enbridge. He owns Bird Construction Inc. He builds court houses, prisons, opp and RCMP detachments. https://t.co/ZA3LcypCMS
Enbridge has been fiscally donating to police for a long time.

Police and fire department as first responders have judicial power to decide when to call the MNR spills action centre when accidents happen. I know this from a spill I witnessed in the Humber River. Police and oil are too close and conflicts exist.
The Ontario Ministry of the Environment’s failure to charge Imperial Oil signals that “the minister’s promise to police industry and enforce existing environmental laws is an empty one.” - @ecojustice_ca scientist Elaine MacDonald https://t.co/p2qBSrSlLl #onpoli
Ontario Police neglect to investigate recent rail disaster between CN and Canadian Pacific Railway resulting in derailment, crude oil spills, and death. CBC also found too there has been other railway crashes that have been left uninvestigated.

Conflicts exist but they don't have to if people are willing to ask for changes. We need to simply understand the current system and make our voices heard. I don't blame our local politicians. I blame the system they are captured in rooted to Provincial governance.
Many communities are experiencing the same issues. With collaboration we can share our experiences, learn from them and work to advance the reforms we need to see.

Back in 2014, Dentons & Imperial Oil partner on Internationally Trained Lawyer Articling Program in Calgary

Fraser Milner Casgrain (FMC) law firm was aquirred by Dentons. Their report shows how Harper tried to bypass First Nations consent. Josh Jantzi who wrote it became a solicitor for Enbridge for the Supreme Court case vs Chippewas of the Thames re: Line 9.

Report dated May 28-29 2012 titled: Aboriginal Consultation and Project Development prepared by Bernard J. Roth and Joshua A. Jantzi of Fraser Milner Casgrain. Mr. Jantzi now works for Dentons. Hired by Enbridge for Line 9 Supreme Court vs. Chippwas of the Thames.


Dentons endorsed the Isle of Man tax evasion system.

Dentons created from merger of SNR Denton, Fraser Milner Casgrain and Salans and later merged with Chinese law firm Dacheng in 2015.

Canadian media has acted like the messenger for the devil's architects. Conservative supporters bought out the Toronto Star and Post Media"s foreign owned hedge fund are calling the shots.

Post Media in Canada represents a foreign ownership of the free press that would not be tolerated in the U.S., France, Japan or Germany.

As for Leon Cooperman, who owned 14% of Postmedia and 7% AMI, the SEC leveled insider trading charges against him for trades he directed in a small pipeline stock. Cooperman settled by paying $4.9 million, but neither admitted nor denied the accusations.

Postmedia's Deep Ties with American Media Inc.

In November 2019, Postmedia announced that 66% of its shares were now owned by Chatham Asset Management, an American media conglomerate which owns American Media, Inc., and is known for its close ties to the Republican party.

The public supports less policing and prisons but Harper invested in social discord.

Policing, Prison and construction were linked under the Harper Government.

Richard Bird was VP of Enbridge and he also served as a member of the Canada's Federal Minister of Finance's Advisory Committee on Financing and currently serves as chairman of the board of directors of the Alberta Investment Management

Richard Bird, a former VP of Enbridge is linked to Ecopatrol, missing money and a massive sex scandal in Colombia and Prison Schemes with bid rigging, corruption and collusion.

There was bid rigging corruption and collusion during Prime Minister Harper's term as they invested in private prisons across Canada. Read here. This mentions Bird Construction Inc. Richard Bird was VP of Enbridge Pipeline Inc.

These are the boats my grandfathers built by hand. There was no room for by catch. If a cod or haddock were out of season we threw it back. We had to. We worked for Jersey Fishing who paid us in tokens. We were slaves to them. The tokens were used for company store.


My grandfather Laurent ran the store that ran on credit. He didn't know numbers. We were forbidden reading and writing. He scrawled debt on the wall of the storage room to keep track. Paper and books forbidden to us by Canada's soldiers who raided our homes and business.


This report confirms our line to King Clovis. We all remembered who we were and Canada's efforts to extinguish us continue to this day.

His wife Philomene Landry had a cousin who was wife to the Jersey Company owner. The rich men married Indigenous women to evade Provincial tax and marry in. She was Mi'kmaw. In my line all my grandparents were of the same families for generations.

@Pontifex I am a little fish but even I understand that Einstein was correct.


Brookfield and SNC Lavalin have to be stopped to stop the funding of Muslim Brotherhood. They bind to expensive nuclear under the guise of climate action to put in debt the nations. They delay funding of local, simple renewable energy to take power and money away from people.

They know oil and gas is failing and now we see ridiculous schemes planned to bring BC oil and Natural Gas to East Coast via Panama Canal for shipment globally under the guise of hurting Russia's pipeline prospects.

“Our entire project is about geopolitical issues,” Sorensen said at the London event. “It’s about diversifying western European gas away from Russia. And it’s why the German government is as supportive as they are.”

Money from TransMountain Pipeline, Enbridge Risk Management, Richard Bird's construction of Police stations all move through Intratrust linked to Trump and Russia's Rosneft, Jared Kushner etc.

How Does Zero Cost EMI work?

What is the catch here? How do Companies involved make money here?

A Thread🧵👇

Please "RT" if you like the thread.


1/ You are looking for a mobile phone worth Rs.10,000 on Amazon and as you move ahead to place the order, you are offered an option to pay that amount spread across 6 months. 6 EMIs of Rs.1667. No interest charges or processing fees.

2/ The next thought you have is - ‘obviously there is some catch here’. Why would someone give me an option to pay over 6 months? That too without any fees/charges!?

The catch is - it is more to do with marketing and sales than finance.

3/ There are 3 entities involved in this transaction. The platform (Amazon), Mobile Brand (Samsung), and the finance company (Bajaj Finance).

4/ Imagine you are a student who just got an internship with a stipend of Rs.5000. Shelling out Rs.10000 may not be possible for you. But if you have to pay Rs.1667 a month for 6 months, you feel like you have got a deal! Samsung gets to sell more. Amazon gets more commission.

The British Railway Mania

How a disruptive technology created the biggest speculative bubble in the history of England

/THREAD/


1/ Railways were the most disruptive technology of the 19th century, known as the "railway age", transforming England from an agricultural to an industrialized nation.

2/ The development of railway infrastructure and locomotives started at the end of the 18th century but experienced immense growth after 1830.


3/ Hundreds of railway related bills were passed every year with proposed rails totaling 10,000 miles, a third of which was never built due to poor financial planning, competition, or fraud.

4/ In the mid-1840s, the Bank of England cut interest rates rendering government bonds unattractive, and investors more willing to rush in the railway investments.

🤔 Thread: More of the wrong thing is less
(or, how I stepped off the hamster wheel)

I’m going to share a personal story with hope that it inspires at least one person to re-examine their definition of success 👇

Through hard work and an unfair share of luck, I’ve done some cool “bucket list” things in my career:

✅Raised VC from the worlds’ top firms
✅Helped build 100’s of millions in revenue from nothing
✅Rang the bell at the NYSE
✅Met & did deals with billionaires & business icons

These are things I dreamed about when I was young and I treasure some of the memories. But when they finally happened I felt surprisingly unfulfilled. I was scoring lots of points but didn’t feel like I was winning.

Then a few years ago during a board meeting I had a moment of clarity. I looked around the table at 10 people, all absurdly successful by financial measures. There wasn’t a single person I wanted to emulate. Most were unhealthy and several had told me that they were unhappy.

Within months I walked away from from a 7-figure salary, moved my family to Boulder, & haven’t looked back. Don’t get me wrong, I’m a capitalist & like money as much as anyone. But for me it's not the thing, and *more of the wrong thing is less*.

🧵: The 10 Metrics for SaaS Startups (an Operator's Guide)

Focusing on the wrong things can kill your startup.

Based on founding and scaling @edenworkplace, here are the metrics that matter most:

Metric 1: ARR (Annualized Recurring Revenue)

You will need to know this number each day, so you'll focus on Contracted ARR in your CRM tool (as opposed to accounting ARR).

Big ARR milestones are $100K (Signal), $1 million (PMF), $10 million (Growth), $100 million (IPO Scale)

Metric 2: ARR Growth

Once you get past the Signal stage, your ARR growth is the primary determinant of future success (and valuation).

Strong annual growth rate from Signal to PMF is 4x+ and from PMF to Growth is 2.5x+.

@edenofficemagic grew 11x between Signal and PMF stages.


Metric 3: ACV (Average Customer Value)

ACV often starts low for a SaaS company (as your product is not featureful enough for large enterprises) and grows as the company moves upmarket.

ACV is calculated by taking total revenue and dividing it by your number of customer logos.

Metric 4: ACV Growth

Most SaaS companies will make ACV growth a focus.

It is fair to increase revenue per customer as you add more value to users in new features, integrations, and products.

@edenofficemagic grew ACV 2.3x last year, mostly through cross-selling new products.

Thread: Central Pivot Range (CPR)

CPR is another popular tool. Three lines are plotted on the chart when we plot CPR.

The three lines are: CPR, TC and BC.

Let’s understand the calculation.


You may recall that I explained the calculation of Pivot levels in an earlier thread. CPR stands for Central Pivot Range. It is always a center line of the three lines that gets plotted in the chart.

CPR is a Pivot price. Pivot is average of HLC as explained in the prev thread.


We also discussed about Mid-range of the session. Mid-range is average of High and low price of the session.

The mid-range of the bar is known as BC in the CPR calculation. BC stands for Bottom central pivot.


Pivot level captures the relationship of the closing price to the range of the session.

Pivot price above mid-price = bullish pivot
Pivot price below mid-price = bearish pivot


So, CPR line is Pivot and BC line is Mid-range.

What is the difference between both?
Mid-range is average of High and Low.

Pivot is average of High, Low and Close.
What will make the difference between the two?

Close.

Eri Katha Ramar Temple
Maduranthakam

Eri Katha Ramar temple is located at Maduranthakam near Chengalpattu of Tamil Nadu. Beautiful Kodanda Ramar of about 8ft holding Ma Sita's hand & with Lakshmana. This temple story is connected with Sri Ramanujar.
@LostTemple7


It was here Periya Nambigal performed Pancha Samskaaram to Ramanujar under Magizham tree.
Sri Ramanujar was on his way from Kanchipuram to meet Sri Periya Nambigal at Sri Rangam to become his disciple. Sri Periya Nambigal also started towards Kanchipuram to meet Ramanujar.


They both met here at Madurantakam.
Small Mandapam where Ramanujar undertook Pancha Samskaaram is seen in the temple. Separate sannidhi is for Periya Nambigal & Ramanujar & this is the only temple where Ramanujar is seen as a Grahastha (married person) and not in Sanyasa kolam.


Story says about an incident which occurred during British rule. The Madurantakam lake bund was about to breach, due to heavy rain & village will be flooded if it happened. Dt collector was Cl. Lionel Blaze who took efforts to protect the bund & asked for the piles of stones


in the temple to protect it. But it was meant for Janakavalli ( sita) Thayar sannidhi which faced shortage of fund. Lionel Blaze prayed Sri Ramar to save the bund and if so he will provide fund to construct.
That night he saw in the lightning, Sri Rama & Lakshmana walked along
