Canada has a wealth of untapped economic potential and it's not where you would expect.
While the latest Royal Bank forecast calls for resource-rich provinces such as Alberta and Saskatchewan to lead the country in economic growth next year, the Canadian Chamber of Commerce says Canada is selling short two areas that account for 40 per cent of the country's land mass - Yukon and Nunavut.
In a new report called "Developing the Economic Potential of Canada's Territories," the national chamber says the territories are believed to contain much of Canada's untapped natural resources wealth. However, tapping into that potential is hampered by a shortage of skilled workers, a lack of infrastructure and poor access to capital, among other challenges.
"We are selling our territories - and Canada - short," Perrin Beatty, the Canadian chamber's CEO, said in a news release. "The federal government must take the lead in developing an integrated, long-term strategy and business case that create the conditions for full economic participation by the territories and all of their peoples."
There are indications of the territories' economic potential to be found in statistics which show that, while the territories have just over three per cent of Canada's population, Yukon and Nunavut enjoyed the highest and second-highest gross domestic product increases in the country in 2011, at 7.7 and 5.6 per cent respectively.
However, the Chamber of Commerce report notes that some business people say the cost of doing business is five times higher and the operating effort 10 times greater in the territories than in the provinces, which hinders the territories' competitiveness.
If those hurdles can be addressed - and the chamber's report contains recommendations for smoothing the way - then the territories can start to become a bigger player in the Canadian economy. Efforts are already underway to make that happen. The report indicates that the federal government is investing $100 million over five years (2008-2013) in the Geo-mapping for Energy and Minerals (GEM) program to identify energy and mineral resource locations and potential in the territories.
If the vast economic potential of the territories can be unleashed, that will not only be a boon for Yukon and Nunavut, but it will be a benefit to the Canadian economy as a whole.

In this stand-alone graphic novel, a human child must locate his changeling to save the fay world from a ruthless usurper.
Living with the fay king and queen, human Childe (who’s never been given a proper name) spends his days as a fawned-over curiosity. However, when the belowground realm’s throne is seized by malevolent queen Hawthorne, it falls on Childe to venture up into the human world to find his changeling. Aboveground, Childe and the candle-golem Whick soon locate Edmund, who struggles both to appear human and to keep his fay magic at bay. Before long, Childe, Whick, Edmund, and Edmund’s human sister, Alexis, find themselves scurrying along labyrinthine subway tunnels into the Below and fighting dangerous dragons, savage statues, and a rancorous royal. Refreshingly free of even a whisper of romance, Aldridge’s pleasing adventure gives a nod to many well-loved fantasy tropes, including fairies, dragons, talking animals, and witches. As richly imagined in the full-color illustrations, the worldbuilding is both accessible and as familiar as those genre stalwarts. Some of the action scenes feel a bit rushed and may leave readers wanting more, but this quibble aside, this should easily resonate with preteen and teen fans of both Holly Black and Neil Gaiman. All of the human characters—including peripheral ones—are white.
Fantasy comfort food that hits all the genre notes. (Graphic fantasy. 9-14)

AZIR KHOBOR, GUWAHATI, 25TH OCTOBER : Numaligarh Refinery Limited (NRL) today signed an MoU with Inland Waterways Authority of India (IWAI) for transportation of petroleum products of NRL to Bangladesh and beyond through IWAI’s upgraded jetty in Jogighopa in lower Assam.

Are you wearing masks when you go out these days? Sadly, that’s the situation around the world now. The surgical mask price that used to be very nominal hiked up to 200% with the need and also the price of raw materials rose. But for something that we’ve to use regularly, spending a massive amount of money while you have to change it frequently can be an additional financial burden on the families, especially for those who run on a budget.
It’s disturbing to realize that the environmental circumstances we live in turned against us rapidly, leaving all of us in a pandemic situation. In many countries, it is mandatory to wear a mask. Some countries came up with the law as people without masks are legally punishable, while some counties are charging a huge fine or jail period. Can you imagine how life is turned with a simple mask? But this is for our own good too. Protective face masks for germs are not just necessary but a must.
Ideal Surgical mask price:
You must have gone through several websites, stores, pharmacies to buy a surgical mask and heard a lot of different prices. But what’s the correct surgical mask price? What’s the difference between expensive masks and affordable masks? Is surgical mask price being bluffed with the demand in the market? We understand how tough it is to have so many doubts about buying a surgical mask. So here we are, to answer all your doubts.
Disposable Surgical Mask price:
Disposable surgical masks are ideal in the current situation as you can just discard the. For surgeons, doctors and other medical staff who get exposed to various patients every day, it is most suitable. Usually, the cost depends on the level of protection (level 1-3) but the current pricing in Australia is around $20-50 per box based on the level of protection.
Reusable Surgical masks:
If non-medical hospital staff like receptionists, accountants, managers, security guards, the exposure directly towards the patients is less. In this case, you don’t have to launder all your money for surgical mask price. Instead, you can buy a reusable mask and use it for longer than the disposable masks.
Though these are little more expensive than the Disposable masks, the durability is higher, and it lasts longer in comparatively lesser prices. You can find these reusable masks like cloth masks, activated carbon filter masks, etc. These masks cost between 9 AUD to 20 AUD for each piece but last for 1-2 months washing after usage, which is less than the disposable masks as you can use each piece only for 8-10 hours.
- N95 mask price:
N95 masks are known as high rated protective face masks for germs these days for their efficiency to filter bacteria, viruses and other unseen particles. But along with the improved care, the price increases too. It can cost about 5 - 10 AUD per piece. It might sound a little bit higher as they’re not reusable for a long time, but the optimal layer filtering is very active to prevent any harmful particles reaching your body.
Surgical mask prices vary based on the support they provide. Undoubtedly the prices have increased more during this pandemic, but we’re in need and can’t put a price on health. So, choose wisely according to your requirement and plan it in advance to buy in bulk to save some money. Be smart and be safe!

I READ that two crimes were committed using a crossbow and a bow and arrow. I believe the weapons were used to avoid handgun laws.
Maybe we should initiate laws restricting bows and arrows. A violent person always will find a weapon -- even a rock can be dangerous.

In 2000, Jacksonville citizens gave politicians the right to spend $2.25 billion of their money to reshape the city.
Twenty years later, some local politicians are trying to convince the voters that little has been done to improve the city’s infrastructure, especially in certain areas of town.
This is a detailed listing of what was done under the Better Jacksonville Plan.
The Better Jacksonville Plan financed $105 million to resurface streets in Jacksonville that had not been paved since 1985. The Department of Public Works paved nearly 1,800 miles of streets. The plan also financed $20 million to fund construction of new neighborhood sidewalks.
These include widening, adding curbs and storm water drainage infrastructure.
- Butler Blvd./US-1 and Butler Blvd./I-95 intersections
- University/Beach intersection
- Salt marsh (Fanning Island and FIND) mitigation sites
- Beaver Street (Devoe to Edgewood)
- Atlantic Boulevard (Girvin/Hodges/San Pablo)
- Atlantic/Kernan intersection
- Atlantic/Southside intersection
Railroad grade crossings
- New Kings Road (US 1) – south of 45th Street
A six-lane vehicular overpass was to be constructed to replace the ground-level railroad crossing, to help alleviate traffic delays caused at this crossing by passing trains.
- Franklin Street – north of 17th Street
A pedestrian overpass has been constructed to bridge three sets of railroad tracks at this location, providing residents safe passage over this busy crossing.
- 7th Street – between Harrison and Milnor Streets
A pedestrian overpass has been constructed to span the existing single-track railroad crossing, presenting walkers and runners with a continuous route over the track.
- Environmental clean-up of ash sites – $25 million
- Neighborhood park improvements – $15 million
- Preservation Project Jacksonville – $50 million The Preservation Project was a series of land grants for parks. In 2003, The Nature Conservancy awarded Mayor John Delaney the President’s Conservation Achievement Award for his work on the Preservation Project.

Various areas of the city still need drainage improvements, street resurfacing and the like. But in the mayor’s proposed capital outlay plan $240 million would be spent next year on such needs. It is a five-year plan that is revised annually and it is funding over and above what was included in the Better Jacksonville Plan.
In addition to the spending listed above, the taxpayers have shelled out more than $1 billion in the past 10 years for infrastructure via the five-year plans.
Former Mayor John Delaney told Eye on Jacksonville he thinks that some current politicians have failed to appreciate what the Better Jax plan accomplished.
Like many others, he also does not understand the claim that promises made before consolidation have not been kept. Delaney said it was more a matter of campaign rhetoric by consolidation proponents who said that everybody would be better off by merging the city and county governments.
“Everybody is better off,” Delaney told Eye. But that doesn’t mean every street has been paved and every house provided with sewers, he said.
Council members from four districts that are in the Northwest Quadrant are the ones alleging broken promises and neglect.
Delaney recently wrote a letter to the editor of a small local newspaper, saying the city should take stock of what has been spent in the Northwest Quadrant since consolidation.
He also said that it is necessary to look at actual need, as opposed to just throwing money at a certain area.
Considering what has been done in the past two decades alone, claims that Jacksonville has neglected capital improvements need to be examined thoroughly, not taken at face value.
Like all urban areas, Jacksonville has ongoing infrastructure needs but billions of dollars have been spent on them and continue to be spent. Unmet needs don’t always justify higher taxes, especially those imposed without a public vote.
Never take a politician’s word for it that the government needs more of your money. Especially when he says it is needed for the purpose of “social justice.”

Glastonbury 2013 is over and despite splitting our audience right down the middle, the Rolling Stones certainly proved a talking point as Pyramid Stage toppers.
As always when the festival ends, Michael Eavis has promised that next year's headliners are already in the bag - but who will they be? Digital Spy rounds up the main contenders.
The Stone Roses
First they play their own homecoming gigs and European festivals. Then they mop up the cash with a V Festival slot. This summer they wowed London and rocked the Isle of Wight. We were promised a "live resurrection" from The Stone Roses (read: new material) and are still waiting. What better place to present some new music than the festival they pulled out of in 1995?
Headliner of the second Glastonbury in 1971 and triumphant returnee with a greatest hits set in 2000, there have been mixed messages about whether or not David Bowie will actually return to the stage. But even if he's too long in the tooth for a full-scale tour, Michael Eavis would welcome him back with open arms for a one-off show.
There had been hip-hop for years at Glastonbury, but Jay-Z changed the game as the first mainstream rap superstar to top the Pyramid Stage in 2008. Who better to follow in his footsteps than his Watch The Throne colleague Kanye West? Insane self-confidence, barmy outfits, crossover appeal and most importantly an increasingly large setlist of hits would make for quite a spectacle.
Talking of spectacles, Lady GaGa has been surprisingly quiet of late. All that will change when make-or-break album ARTPOP drops later this year. Despite the whiney outrage when Kylie Minogue was booked for the 2005 festival, Glastonbury has not been afraid of proper pop in recent years. Having already played halfway up the Other Stage in 2009, GaGa could cap off her return with a headline slot.
On the other side of the spectrum are self-proclaimed psychedelic rockers Kasabian. Often the bridesmaid, the band headlined Hard Rock Calling themselves on Glastonbury Weekend while whinging that Michael Eavis hadn't been in touch. "We've got every f**king right to headline Glastonbury 'cos we're good enough. It will happen," said mouthy frontman Tom Meighan. We're not convinced. Their oi oi bantz jars somewhat with the vibe, and if you need some "lads" to get girls to take their tops off, then...
Oasis (or failing that, Noel Gallagher)
Liam Gallagher keeps snarling, pleading with "the musical gods" (i.e. his brother Noel) to get the old band back together to mark the anniversary of Oasis's second-best album next year. Although Noel has always wanted the romantic sunset slot, we think it's much more likely that he may end up headlining all by himself. He's certainly got the back catalogue.
Often rumoured, but
the iconic foursome, classic duo, Ralf HÃ¼tter and those three other guys have never played Glastonbury before. Having slowed down for a few years, they conquered the world with their Minimum-Maximum World Tour in the middle of last decade and have been a massive draw at their occasional shows since. Their 3D video set would prove quite an experience.
Mick Fleetwood reveals that the band turned down a headline slot for this year's festival as they worried about the impact on their own big comeback tour. We think that next year they're a shoe-in. Like a Mountie, Michael Eavis always gets his man eventually, and after U2 and The Rolling Stones, he'll be delighted to cross another classic act off his list.
There's not been a lot of proper dance music heading up the main stage in recent years. Basement Jaxx replaced the unwell Kylie in 2005 and Moby brought his own brand of downbeat ambience a couple of years before. The Chemical Brothers were a standout in 2000 though, and Daft Punk are bigger than all of them. After their mid-decade stumble proving they were human after all, they're superstars once more and can bring their own pyramid.
Who do you think will headline Glastonbury 2014? Let us know your dream Pyramid Stage toppers in the comments box below.
