I'm a regular commuter cyclist (Halifax, NS; now Ottawa, ON) and how I wish I could ride on such a highway! Even the best cycling lanes I have experienced are punctuated by stops, intersections and red lights. When you're cruising at 35km/h

The article properly points out that a company cannot do its business without employees. Certainly: employees have the skill to actually perform the tasks the company was founded upon to provide. What the article fails to recognize the powe
