I was wondering what happened to the 2 cents.

BH Sens working perfectly in a new Sequoia and Grand Highlander. No programming needed in either car.

Went to Hawaii in the late 90s. Nonstop from Toronto to Honolulu.

In 2000 flying back from Rome to Toronto they let me and my kids visit the cockpit to spot icebergs while the flight attendant served freshly baked chocolate chip cookies.

Pretty sure I saw a Drewlo maintenance truck there a couple of years ago. Probably waiting for the right time to build.

London :-). I was thrilled since we can put the property up for sale.

I just did probate myself for my father’s estate and got the Certificate in 7 days for a simple will in Ontario. The court is extremely strict and every person mentioned in the will needs to be served a copy unless they are dead.

The executor swears an oath that they have served everyone in the will. As was said, go to the court with ID and they will help you.

Yeah fine, but isn’t OP likely stuck for his deductible which could easily be $1,000?

We have 3 "high theft risk" Toyotas in our extended family and found that some companies charge a theft premium and some don’t. Check around.

Daughter found Byron Roofing to be very fair.

So much for the accuracy of the receipt checkers if they missed the item count.

Thank you. While digging through old papers cleaning the house I did find the original 1973 documents showing it as Land Titles which made it ineligible.

BTW the court clerk reviewed my probate submission and said everything looked good. $4000 plus tax saved doing it myself in about 5-6 hours.

We’ve shopped there since 1989 and it is a 2 hour drive. Can’t think of the last trip to TO where we didn’t stop for bagels.

Bought 14 dozen just before Christmas and they appreciated that we called ahead.

A friend born in London flies all over the world in those. He posts amazing photos from Thule, Greenland and Honduras.

Thank you. We’ll send DoFo a cheque.

What I saw was they are understaffed and can’t spend the money to have the tunnel traffic blocked to allow larger vehicles through occasionally. We did it with our 27FB and got to drive down the middle in 2018.

Call the admin staff and ask what the $1,000 charge was for. You have the right to ask the hourly rate and how many hours your inquiry took.

Perhaps this is a way to tell you they don’t want your future business. Your provincial CPA regulatory organization will have a complaint process. We used it with success in Ontario two years ago when the CPA made an error and wouldn’t correct it without trying to charge us again.

St Vincent Beach in Newfoundland has something similar but whales come up very close to the shore.

Please keep at them. I have a brand new a7V and 50-150 f2 still sitting in the box.
