    I think starting wage is a little over $17/hr, new hires can get their free tires after their probation period is over. Full benefits for them now too. Depending on how much ot u want to work, you can do quite well for yourself

    Of course, that's just based off of labourers, if u have a trade (ie. Mechanic) you write the mechanics test and go from there. But just to get your foot in the door, fill out a basic application too.

    I'm having a terrible time finding BFG KM2's lol NOBODY HAS THEM.

    Duratracs are on sale at Canadian Tire though, 285/75's are 219 each. Decent deal for anyone that's looking!

    Duratracs are softer than MTs so I'm guessing they wouldn't last as long. Maybe I'll give them a call today!

    I love my duratracs. Good in the woods, not bad on the highway and great in the snow.

    Last week?

    And from all the reviews on duratracs, they are getting fairly good mileage. Like 50k miles. I have 10,000kms on mine and they look new.

    Oh man, I think the Roscoes contractors were making like $11/hr when I was a summer student at Michelin (finished up there in fall 2010).

    Valley Tire in Kentville is probably a safe bet. I've been pretty pleased with the KM2's on my 2015.

    :cheers:

    Not the thrifty kind.
    It'll have to look into it if Scotia can't come up with anything.
    How much did they want?

    Which Crew is he on? I was on Crew 4 when I was in PL1. Might have worked with your brother at some point!

    I somehow read "Scotia" as "Santa" the first time I looked at this hahaha.

    Everyone ready for massive amounts of rain on Christmas and Boxing day?
