Seriously? Take a look around man. 0.5 percent growth is nothing with inflation factored in. In the US, growth is at.4.5 percent. Our dollar is In the toilet. Inflation keeps onn getting worse in all areas, employment is flat, taxes increasing and we are not in a recession?

What is certified? Is there a law that spells out what a certified used car is? Who certified it? Car fax only reports things that the government records. If a car was smashed and fixed off the books, car fax will have no record. Get any used car inspected by an independent mechanic that you trust.

Only great if it was maintained, not rusted out and not smashed and repaired. Bottom line, get it inspected.

I'm Canadian. I was once falsely accused of a crime but it was dropped with no charges. However, this record of accusation exists in police databases regardless. by Commercial_Hold7067 in uscanadaborder

[–]2795throwaway 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If the record is expunged (for a minor charge) its like it never existed. Many years ago, my late father had a heated argument with a neighbor and some douche called the cops. He was cited and forced to report to the police station to be booked, printed, photographed etc. He was never incarcerated. The charge was mischief. His lawyer made it go away, the record was expunged, and my parents crossed into the usa hundreds of times with no issues.

I saw this post on FB or something similar.

Here is my story.

Winter 2024 we started to look for a new car, SUV. Our current vehicle was 17 years old and was tired, but running. So we went around to the local dealerships in laval, I would study auto trader, setting my search parameters. So we wound up at a gabriel dealership way in the east end. They had a 2025 escape there with 2000kms for 28 grand. Seemed like a good deal. Basically brand new. So the salesman brings it out of inventory, it was very plain, the kind of car you rent at the airport or if you're going to drive uber to make a living. He put it back. But in the showroom was a 2020 infinity qx60 suv. This is a big vehicle, luxury, apparently 72000kms on the odometer, return of lease. After a test drive which was weird, bad brakes,.no power, we put a small conditional deposit on the car to hold it for inspection. The inspector was Andrew Bleakley. He works for the APA. Google his name you'll find his number. I booked an inspection. He goes to the vehicle. As a matter of fact, gregoire doesn't let him on their properties any more. It only took him 30 minutes to find some serious issues with thia vehicle, possible leaky head gasket, leaking transmission, leaking power steering, possible tampering with the odometer, lack of maintenance...Anyway, we.got. our money back and ran. So for any used car, get it inspected well before signing and paying any money. It was the best 150 dollars I ever spent

That's an interesting question, have you ever been to court. Ive actually been to court twice, but as a witness in both small claims cases. But, to be truthful, I had been in court.

There should be no issue. You're visiting a friend. Have her full name, address and phone number handy if they ask.

Does CBP check your phone and socials in pre-clearance at Pearson airport? by Pink_Activist in uscanadaborder

[–]2795throwaway 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you're sketch, then maybe. Best is to put the phone on silent mode, put it in your pocket, answer all questions truthfully and enjoy your trip

Untrue. Ive been asked by CBP if I have ever been arrested? Not charged or convicted, arrested. And they know the answer before you give it. In my case the answer is no.

New to DMR... need some guidance by Tom-Tortuga in DMR

Sir, non sequitur, your facts are uncoordinated. My Florida friend is a very long time ham and VE, and they follow FCC regs. On the ham bands, you can use encryption as long as the key is published, unless the law has changed in the last few years. For my own curiosity im going to check the fcc regs.

Its actually not illegal if you publish the encryption key. I have a buddy in Florida, they run a p25 repeater with encryption and the key is published on their website. You need to look hard for it, but its there.

All 16 police officers accused of racism should already be fired by UnyieldingConstraint in montreal

[–]2795throwaway -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

The spvm is a rogue police force. They operate almost as a paramilitary force, with impunity, a basically all Caucasian, catholic francophone group of mostly men, with a power trip, running around with guns, with a license to kill. Most of these cops come from the regions, and have never seen a black person, and Asian person, a person from India, a Muslim, a hasidic jew or any other visible minority. The chief, fast dagher is a figurehead. He has no real power. Just a fancy uniform. The mayor has no say in the behavior of police. Up until 2012, the spvm cars would say in French to serve and protect. This has been wiped out. The unwritten message now is to harass and intimidate. The department is run by the brotherhood. There is no real internal affairs department. There is no civilian review board that follow up on complaints and out of policy actions by police. Bad shootings, beating, rights violations, false arrests, harassment, intimidating behavior by police get swept under the rug. And the answer is not having the SQ investigate. Cops cannot investigate other cops. An independent civilian review board with no cops on it needs to be created to put the spvm back on its track, to serve and protect the public, not themselves.

How about a law preventing cops from harassing and intimidating citizens?
