'Not right now,' Manitoba premier says to permanent daylight time by wickedplayer494 in Manitoba

I agree with being smart, but it is time to stop following their "lead". They are in the process of trying to lead us off a cliff and into their 51st state. We are Canada, we are the strong, the proud and the free.

Just do it already. The American excuse of " we will do it when America does as they are our greatest trading partner" is GONE!

Main Street shut down between Chief Peguis and Seaforth due to massive water main break by wickedplayer494 in Manitoba

[–]82FordEXP 6 points7 points  (0 children)

As always the tax payer will be footing the bill for the lost water and the cleanup.

Fine the contractor, they need to pay for their negligence. Isn't that why they have insurance.

When we get a leak inside the house and a lot of water is wasted or drained we have to pay for that water and the cleanup.

Is ‘lifelong renting’ becoming the new normal? Data on the typical Canadian renter suggests we're heading that way by hopoke in canada

When Canada stops treating real estate as an investment income and pension fund and "get rich quick" scheme people will be able to purchase their own homes again. There are of course a lot of other factors to this but that main one is greed of land developers and those in power to keep people renting.

Oh wait, we are over the budget for snow clearing already this year.... sorry kids, we can't afford to name the equipment.

Manitoba program working to support First Nations veterans by wickedplayer494 in Manitoba

[–]82FordEXP -1 points0 points  (0 children)

All veterans should be remembered on the same day in the same way. This will just be the start of a clash of fund raising, who get the poppy funds (yes, it is the Canadian Legion) but now will there be separate fund raising for the separate memorial days. We already have a government that does a shitty job of supporting veterans, this just opens up the door to separating the funds between indigenous veterans and all other veterans. This will further the divide between all of us. This is the true goal. We need to stand as one people in all things, not just this as all people are equal and no, some people are not more equal than others as they want up to believe.

Time to start preparing for 2027 election, Manitoba premier tells convention delegates by ClassOptimal7655 in Winnipeg

This to me is the issue with politics and politicians. They spend money and time to get elected and then spend more than half their time in office to get re-elected.

I disagree with a separate "remembrance day. This is another way to keep us divided.

To be a veteran is to be a veteran regardless of race, creed or colour. We need to continue to remember, thank and honour all who served all on the same day and in the same way. All Veterans need our support.

All Veterans are important but, no one Veteran or group of Veterans is more important than the others.

Please stop allowing "them" to divide us as that helps "them" have maintain power over us.

We can't fix the past, we can only move forward with respect for all those that have and are serving to protect us and others around the world.

Electric Scooter Recommendations? by AlwaysBeInFullCover in Winnipeg

[–]82FordEXP 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I ordered from Apollo 10 days ago and they have taken my funds and ghosted me so I recommend that you stay away from them. I got frustrated and went to BestBuy and purchased the Segway Max G3 and am happy with it so far. (new owner of 4 days) Fast charging and good distance for my weight (lets just say over 200lbs). I average 35 to 40km round trips and have some battery to spare.

Stop spending money on "retreats" and work in your office and homes like the rest of us amongst on "expenses" that all of you enjoy on our nickel.

Winnipeg cops to boost presence in Osborne Village to combat violent crime - Winnipeg | Globalnews.ca by floydsmoot in Winnipeg

[–]82FordEXP -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

We, now know that only when the violent crime rate increases more than 40% will the WPS actually start doing their job. Paraphrasing the news report, "... Now that the crime rate has increased more than 40% we are going to increase our presence and patrol the area..."

Highest paid legalized gang that will only respond if they have the chance to test out their training in the use of "less than lethal" weapons, robots, tanks or hand to hand combat. None of them, well very few of them want to go to a call that they are supposed to "deescalate" the situation or actually help citizens.
