If you get the message to join when trying to read comments, and you begrudge the two bucks, enter 'Danielle' under the promotion and then fill in the rest.
You will not be charged the first month and can cancel before being charged after your freebie.
We hope you will participate in posting and discussion and find the ideas, information, and companionship here for $2/month(US$) worth far more than the cup of coffee that the same $2 won't buy anymore.
The fee seems to keep the equality of membership and content high and our income goes to good causes we decide by polling.
Read the comments especially Marc in Calgary.

Aren't they just wonderful! Her add to post is interesting. I have a son working on a pipeline in B.C. that was approved many years ago that I hadn't heard of as it never makes the news. Previously he worked on Trans Mountain which was major news daily.
