[killramos]

Shame they have a no nuclear ordinance.

Did I mention how many North American renewable energy installs discover they require a natural gas supplementation and therefore have enough orders to keep me gainfully employed until retirement?

Hint...it's all of them

I feel for heating that's quite reasonable in victoria however I'm curious how well electric boilers do for a bigger condo unit.

This is absolutely feasible for Victoria. I don't think I've even stayed in a place there that had forced air heating.

In fact, I don't think any building built there in the last like 30 years uses NG for heating.

For any building, commercial or residential, the absolute cheapest way to heat space or water is natural gas. And that's at todays prices. Electricity is going to 3x or worse. I fully understand that Victoria has very mild climate, but this is still a very anti-consumer bit of political theatre that will only increase costs for residents.

Price will probably be based on who wins, the commies or the nazis.

Price of gasoline might be chipped away at by 18 watt per mile electric scooters. If you can get half of the population on scooters for their bread cheese and wine lunch - then you have effectively reduced gasoline consumption by at least a factor of 10,000% (100x)

Could it collapse the price of gasoline to 1 cent per litre? Well, no, but.

Scoot scoot baby.

I was shocked at how many people burnt their garbage out in the island. Wild stuff.

Spent many a months in the Comox Valley area, some of THOSE people make your average "hick" Albertan look very civilized. At least Albertans work for living, those fucking hippies just smoke pot and complain about the rain forest being cut down.

Okanagan is no different, I was also quite surprised they did this. The only stop burning garbage when the fire bans kick in.

Just like in West Hollywood. You have people with a Prius and a G-Wagen and some how convinced they're helping climate change.

Palki adding that drama, two months wages is going to hurt in the UK.

The environmental lunacy chickens Briton’s have been breeding are coming home to roost.
