Either carry cigarettes, or a throwaway wallet. Do you know what the bad part of Toronto is called?

Closer to home, had a double-stabbing the other day in Mississauga in a dispute over a parking spot. https://globalnews.ca/news/12041545/mississauga-double-stabbing-suspect-wanted/

Saw another potential scooter disaster on today's Toronto news.

Saw this in today's news. It involved a Stand Your Ground dispute over a parking spot at a Walmart in the Sunshine State. Some readers may find it of interest. https://www.wpbf.com/article/florida-walmart-shooting-woman-parking/73614194

That's brilliant. Haven't done a lift myself in a long time. But, back in 2016, the correct answer was, https://toronto.citynews.ca/2016/09/26/exclusive-ambulance-shortage-leaves-man-in-street-for-over-an-hour-with-broken-leg/ Perhaps with these two new units they can do better than that.

Maybe helping others is important to readers. Maybe it's not. That's for them to decide. Is obesity considered a Disability? If so, it may be a Human Rights issue for the City. Not a lawyer . Just an uneducated guess. Whatever anyone's personal opinion , then or now, the calls got done...

That's great advice . Until then , targeted ambulance Response Time in our town for CTAS 1 (Resuscitation / Life-Threatening) 9-1-1 calls is within 8 minutes . How long should a CTAS 1 patient wait for a bariatric ambulance?

Rode a BYD out of Comstock Division. Soothingly quiet. Low floor. Smooth acceleration. No vibration. Nothing like the back breaking lift and soundtrack of the New Look "screamers". I spoke to the Operator. Said he liked it.
