Pricing Sunsets

John Robson writing for the London Free Press, a city not more than fifty miles from the world's most amazing sunsets over Lake Huron is seemingly against the government pricing sunsets. I'm sorry if I don't see his logic!

Canada needs to value and price its sunsets.

Perhaps, John needs to see a sunset over lake Huron and appreciate its value. There is a cost to viewing beautiful sunsets. Its just that John has no clue really on how an indicator can be constructed on how to price them.

Nothing is free John! Everything we do has a consequence and the value of Canadian sunsets are why many Canadians choose to live in Canada where they can see the sunsets.

I am so sorry a sunset's value cannot be priced, at least by John, who I would guess or dare say is probably not a competent statistician, but who am I to say!

I can think of many reasons to have statistics on the cost of viewing sunsets. Let the cost of viewing beatiful sunsets and their contribution to the Canadian economy not go unmeasured, I say!

From a scratch comes a verbal sketch or image sketch of the issue or subject. Other sites have other stuff that should really be of interest to the broad reader. I try to develop themes, but variety often comes before depth. ... more!
