Really????....So what's the hourly rate for wearing a hole in your couch while watching Star Trek reruns?


I´m a white male, Renee!



I´m entitled to 100 bucks per hour just for being alive.

It seems some of us were wrong about incomes in Finland.

If you are a fresh electrician grunt from school, 10 to 11 euros per hour.



Its less than 1800 euros per month but its enough to pay rent, car insurance and stuff like that.



I do charge quite a bit when doing a couple of hour instal gig.. Somewhere around 80 to 100 euros per hour.

It depends on the conditions.



But my full time hourly rates are considerably less than that.



I get night time, hazard, out of town, weekend, evening, holiday, unclean environment etc. Bonuses.





I do okay financially.





The average electrician rates seem to be 10k euros more in Canada.

A journeyman welder working for the union can make 150,000 Euros..



My husband is the shop manager for a specialty oilfield service companies that installs elctrical top dtives and he makes 115,000 Euros per year..



He rarely does any wiring or install work.

Is he away from home a lot?

Out of town?

Never..



He doesn't go all over the world doing install or troubleshoot jobs on rigs anymore.

The salaries ought to be higher in Canada since some1 dares to ask near 800k euros for a drafty little mold-shack like this one.

Lol this is Vancouver city, it's currently a money playground for the 1-2%s from China.  



While in Toronto you can purchased a new house that is 10x better than that moldy old shack but only at 3/5 of the price .

My house is much nicer than that and would list for less than half of that..



The entire West coast of North America is an outlier....too expensive for average families like mine.

I don't know why real estate on the West coast of the USA and Canada is so outrageously expensive..



It's not a nice place to raise a family.

It's currently rated as the best city to live in, plus the closest Canadian city to Asia, less jet lag for astronaut families.

Vancouver is the most overrated city in Canada, possibly the world.

What a dump.



Looks like real-estate you find in the hood.



As far as any part of the northwest pacific coast goes ... you can keep it. It's cold, it's wet and it smells like pine needles and mold. Lived there for eleven plus years and never could get used to it. The people are crazy too...liberal scum flourish like maggots on roadkill there.

I hate the West coast too. I rode my bike from Vancouver to Tijuana when I was twenty one. I t was messed up then, but not like today. I have stopovers in Seattle, San Fran, LAX, and of course Vancouver. I hate all of them.

Vancouver is the "best place to live in" because of public schools and multiculturalism..



Public healthcare.





Guys who can spend 800k on that kind of house, dont need free schools or healthcares.

That must have been written by an ignorant, lefty American. Our health care systrem is near the bottom of the G20. It's also unsustainable. I don't know a lot about BC's schools, but I assume they are okay. What I do know, is that schools in the greater Vancouver area are closing because middle class families with kids cannot afford to live there.



Vancouver is a great city--if you are a rich elitist liberal.

Sydney and Melbourne real estate people paint glowing reviews of returns from Vancouver, because we're not far behind in the unaffordable stakes and it's driven our smaller satellite cities hours away into a similar bracket despite no local work.



I know people who own a house 2-3 hours away and sleep in their vehicles or stay with family so they can return to their home on the weekends.... homes with perhaps an extra bedroom or two, and a bigger lawn, but they paid virtually the same as if they were living in a city that could employ them, and they chose to move to that. Not away.



I live a 60-90 minutes from the CBD on fast roads and I've seen what would have sold 20 years ago for 100-130k go for 500-600k now.... and nothing special.... a 3-4 bedroom 40-50 year old weatherboard clad shack.



Exponential mark up, and immigrants pool their money and lay in a dozen bunk beds. Price doesn't matter.
Blahhhhhh...

That's not a good situation..



Vancouver is no longer an option for working families and they leave the lower mainland entirely and move to places like Kamloops in the BC interior where work and affordable housing are possible..



Vancouver is a city for the wealthy and the very poor.....it's middle class is becoming extinct.
