Is this going to be GTA only or Canada wide? Ship to the USA? Who pays for the tariffs?
They asked me what territory I was willing to cover and I gave them the territory that I was going to be assigned at the previous job I intervewed for. Basically all of southern Ontario. But the company itself currently sells across Canada and the US. That's why we're planning to go to California in April. Trump's tariffs would throw a wrench in that plan, for sure.
 
Chinese brand, correct. It was originally a German brand that got purchased by Chinese interests. They don't pretend to be German today.

Vast majority of frames are built in China, even the high end stuff. There are some wheel makers that aren't in China - Mavic is a huge one (EU made.)
 
Once, when I was out of work and feeling depressed, Matty invited me out to cottage country with his then girlfriend but soon to be wife.

We ended up at some diner for lunch where I was being a downer and complaining about my situation. He eventually turned to me, very sternly and told me not to worry, that eventually I'll find another job making $60k, and I'll be fine. Even though, that was all I wanted, and what I needed to hear I truly didn't believe him, but it indeed calmed me.

Whenever something bad happens to me career or job wise, I always think back to that time in cottage country when Matty told me to calm down.

This was around 2012. God bless to all.
