I mean from the last post my other point is I saw a new Stats Canada Graph that shows Halifax third highest child poverty rate in Canada.
Where our spending is less that other Provinces Deficites.
Growing up at the Rail Road, that’s VIA over in the South End and CN at Alderney Landing I know all kinds of stuff.
Like, the rail yard not downtown near bums etc.
I mean at home a schedule routine to be at Calgary ’88 was provided by VIA Rail etc., to me.
Now I blog about things they taugh me at gifted school like skiing and cooking etc.
I mean, during all that…
Divorce etc.
When you have money the other people didn’t buy “text lists” of stuff for investments for the house.
Examples of stuff I have that they don’t:
Wammy bars….I mean, electric guitars overall anyway.
Sports routines, like for litte league and bantam.
After school and music programs, travel plans etc. Vacations.
My neighbourhood included things like classmates that are future NHL Stars for the Dallas Stars and New Jersey Devils at our road hockey games at the AG Baillie Elementary School in New Glasgow.
If this blog post was a Phd Thesis I would say this…
My childhood was better than the current group today in 2026.
The result is the rail road taught me things to have a better life at home while I grew up around stars like Bobby Or and Patrick Roy.
By fifteen years to retirement other School Districts in Nova Scotia fell to the 3rd highest poverty rate in Canada.
Proving I had a better childhood than them growing up at CN / Via Rail and attending gifted school with future Dallas Stars Players, New Jersey Devils Players and positive infuences like Bobby Or and Patrick Roy, proves my thesis true that I had a better childhood than children today in Nova Scotia.

I didn’t mean to leave out Wayne Gretzky and Mario Lemieux out of the story.
They were there the whole time, Wayne had his car commercials, Mario couldn’t win but overcame it.
1980’s Oilers with Grant Fhur and Mark Messier were there, all NHL signed rookie cards every day.
Calgary ’88 with Mario and Wayne plus the famous Mario vs. Wayne NHL All Star Games…was also my favorite game on old Nintendo.

From earlier topics, that will be in my bid for CN Rail to take over the Power Plant contracts in Atlantic Canada for the twenty five year rebuild (Stat from UK Military) of Atlantic Canada’s Power Grid.
