Which is fair, and I would agree with. There are also people actively searching those postings, applying then submitting complaints so see how that goes.

Growing up in the fruit belt it was a lot of Cubans and South Americans. A lot of them came back every year as well as seasonal workers for decades and were there for the whole season. It was pretty hard work, and they hired on summer students as well to help with the harvest, but I guess there...

That's pretty funny, was that intended as an insult? There have been foreign workers in Canada working on a lot of the fruit farms for my whole life, and generally they were all extremely hardworking people that only took Sundays off for church, so from that perpective wish all MPs were more...

I think PP has also staked his fundamental existence on being inherently anti LPC so there is no path for him to actually be a reasonable human being to get things done with collaboration. So far Carney is lifting enough from their platforms with modifications that I think he may work with them...

@KevinB FWIW the RCN also helps everyone else, including SOF, manage their small boats. Seems kind of obvious, but sometimes you need to do pesky things like maintenance and repairs to keep them serviceable, regardless of how they get purchased.

Not sure there are Canadian producers for some of the grades, so some of it may be just resellers vs actual Canadian production. With the tariffs impacting exports, the remaining Canadian producers may start relooking at specialty steels again, but depending on the quantity required may not...

@Halifax Tar I'm with you on that one and am in the same boat. Our local grid is already overloaded with all the developments they are packing in or building up on small footprints, so we already get brown outs, so only a very limited number of people could upgrade to 200A anyway as they don't...

I'm not too clear, would have guessed PRE, but fuzzy on the details. Was there on ATH, along with PRE and a CPF (guess TOR) in a mini TG. From what I vaguely remember, he was walking back on his own and 4 or 5 of them jumped him for no really good reason on I think one of the first nights...

Honestly can't remember, Captain COVID stuck pretty hard. I only got that one second hand though during a TAV.

Even with the incentives, I couldn't make the math make sense, unless you ignored the lifespan and replacement cost of the batteries. A lot of the batteries really aren't even designed to be recyclable as well, so they are cost prohibitive and risky to recover the various rare (and toxic) metals...

They also didn't pay to design out the fitted sauna and beer kegs in the mess...

I think this was inevitable; the dates were ambitious at best, but there was never any reinvestment in the (mostly privatized) power distribution grid to enable it, and EVs are realistically impractical to be wholesale adopted in a country the size of ours with the population density and...

Not sure, may have just been an air det pilot on FRE around that time. Got COVID twice during the deployment, after being left behind in whatever port they were in for 2 weeks after getting it the first time while not following the protocols (possibly at a strip club). Believe they were RTUd...

I think that was in 2008ish, and when I went back in 2016, was just chatting with a USN jetty security guy and he made a Hamburgler joke because I was Canadian so apparently he has become a bit of a legend in the world's largest Naval base. I was on one of the other ships there at the time, and...

lol, only sometimes! Getting a diagnoses as an adult for being on the spectrum did help, realized that other people have built in filters I may be lacking. Usually build in an internal 'pause 2 3' now but that breaks down when tired/burnout (so frequently with the CAF I guess). Still probably...

Why limit this to driving licences? So many people would get demoted if the 'demote an asshole' standard was applied. Possibly including me sometimes, I guess.

Is that the infamous Captain COVID, or another genius? (My favourite nickname is still the Hamburgler, followed by Dr. Roundsman, but Captain COVID is more contemporary).

Sure, but on the flip side they have zero evidence they didn't just blow a boat of random people out of the water and this particular US gov has burned through all it's international credibility. It really seems like they are staging for a direct attack on Venezula, in what seems like yet...

Davie is much better at self promotion then their track record would support.

Assuming it actually was carrying anything; their approach to designating random people gang members and terrorists for deportation isn't really encouraging. Also blowing up a ship where you could easily board it with the forces in the area is insane and actually seize the cocaine (if it's...
