Thought I would pop back in here to wish Beyond a happy 10th.

Life and work has pulled me away from here and although I've probably pissed off more than a few people 10 to 1 we would enjoy a beer...

Well shit, definitely a coffee run then :facepalm:

I'm sorry but I'm calling bullshit on someone going lights and siren to the door of Tims for coffee. If it did happen 10 to 1 it's because there was an emergency there that he was responding to....

We'll also grab your plate as you leave and flag it on the system so you get constantly harassed as you drive.

Don't worry we've already strong-armed Rage2 and his ISP for his identity. Soon he'll learn the meaning of corrupt.

My apologies to the CBC. I scanned the BC news page and couldn't find it

Strange how the CBC website hasn't picked this story up. I guess it would go against their effort in railroading the RCMP of late.

They didn't get spooked, they wanted more. The talk I hear is that a lot of the band members thought they could take the province for a billion if they held out. They wanted to play high stakes poker...

So $250 million and over double the land they were going to give up for the road wasn't a fair deal?

Its getting to the point that the cost of an elevated highway will be more cost effective than...

:rofl:

best way to avoid this as a landlord is to put into the rental agreement that each month the landlord will give 24hr notice to enter the house to change the filter on the furnace.

I'll keep this in mind if you are ever critical of the police.

and this has never happened before in the history of the planet?

I fully agree that we must tackle the problem of pollution, but to make a global boogie man out of CO2 isn't the answer. I'm far...

can you provide evidence when the global climate system has not been in a state of change?

As well why wouldn't we look at systems that perform better than our current system, or are you alright...

They will eventually trace the start of the zombie apocalypse back to this genetically modified bacteria.

The posted and alleged speed should be by the specified penalty box. Unfortunately if it is missing it doesn't void the ticket as it will most likely be in his notes on the back of his copy along...

Someone else's children on the other side.

I had to read the article twice, but I think they are eluding to the fact that he may have a history of violence with his ex and she was working at the golf course when he showed up with the shotgun....

:facepalm:

I'll try to explain.... Nevermind :facepalm:

You know I agree with you. I do think that associations are protecting officers too much, but I do think they are still needed. Too often it's easier for upper management to sacrifice a lowly...

I agree fully and I personally think from the video this cop is a major DB and I hope he loses his job. I'm explaining why these investigations seem to take forever.

It amazes me that some people...

You know, cops that are subject to these investigations ask the very same thing. The simple reason is that the public demand a full, thorough transparent investigation. If they rush it and miss...

We need an 'Area 51' forum

When was the TSA introduced? Could have been written in the old Motor Vehicle Act traffic control device instead of signal, which would mean any sign.

From the Rules Of The Road Regulation:



It specifically states signal so any intersection without lights you can pull a u turn.

True, I have enough life insurance to cover the mortgage in the event of my death. Really it's almost better if you die because if you're disabled to the point of needing constant care long term...

All fine and dandy if you are in a car when it happens, but it's a lot different if you are struck by an uninsured driver while walking, or kills you or a loved one. You think you'll be able to get...

Why do people always go to the American model when private healthcare is mentioned? How about the Swiss system? Japan? France? Or many other places with blended systems that vastly outperform our...

I think the question here is which is the correlation of the other? IE do people turn to faith less for fulfillment and support when their quality of life is higher? Or when they turn away from faith...

I believe the 1 in 3 is an estimate that includes non-reported incidents. The Little Warriors Society uses the same sort of projections here in Canada.

While I disagree with the policy, especially since it was an off-duty incident, you are comparing people wanted on warrants, ie actively avoiding arrest, vs someone who is charged with assault and...

There will always be cops who like to write tickets, and dick cops who write dick tickets. The fact that we do have some autominity and discretion is a 2 edged sword. Personally I think we are better...

The usual yard stick is a single traffic enforcement event during a 12 hour shift. I've never had issues finding one, it's not like I had to fish for it and often it ended in a warning. I've never...

No. I can't put it any more simply.

Now most units do month and year ends and tickets us one of the performance measures. You have to account for your time. If you aren't going to calls for...

Why do you think I choose my profession? Total compensation was one of the deciding factors. I don't need the government to make my decisions for me.

I do like the idea of the pooled pension vs...

Good pension at work (I have over $1k in deductions and taxes a pay cheque for all my benefits) but I still try to put at least a $100 a pay into a RRSP for the tax benefit and as a backup source of...

Because the government should coddle you from birth to grave.

Except when he charges a $1000 service fee or refuses to sell back to the OP?

If you can afford the car you probably can afford the vinyl wrap for it afterwards.
