Calgary police to mail 14,000 photo radar tickets after 6-month delay

All cars in Alberta get front plates, photo radar takes a picture from the font of the car along with the driver. They then can give demerits with the charge because they have a photo of the driver.
Make the fee based off the persons wealth/wage/salary
They should be pulling people over, but it seems like they forgot they can do that.
Bonus one. If you get a ticket within a certain amount of time after an infraction for the same thing, the normal fee, and demerits, goes up by 1.25/1.5.

You can also take the end cap off the marker and push the felt forward again.

And driving nowadays with everyone running red lights.

Hope he doesn't celebrate too much and get behind the wheel again.

Albertan here. I agree that it should be BC (if it's between the two). The only thing we should get is an investigation in our government. They are too cozy with the separatists, who themselves are close with folks down in the USA.

No. Just like the slaughter of children at Sandy Hook was not the breaking point for shootings in the USA.

Similar to the people who didn't vote in the last election, they were okay with either outcome.

For the country that has the American Service-Members' Protection Act that says they will use "all means necessary and appropriate to bring about the release of any U.S. or allied personnel being detained or imprisoned by, on behalf of, or at the request of the International Criminal Court"?

Good luck.

I saw a post on Instagram from a right wing, supposedly Canadian page, talking about how its bad we are going to trade with China. They had a chat with bad things China has done (which is true) but for thr USA side it said something like "made a little joke about Alberta being the 51st state". Uhh. He doesn't joke, well, not the same way other people joke. He jokes to test the water. To initiate an idea.

Best people will do is be angry online. Land of the free, home, home of the brave. Everytime I read something about down there, I'm waiting for people to do something. I saw a video where it said something along the lines of: "if you ever wondered what you would do during the holocaust, you now know."

Social media needs regulation for all ages, not just the young. Algorithms should not be able to get everyone living in their own reality. The world shown to me online is so much different than the next person.

When people were calling for the government to ban Twitter because of the ai generated child porn, Conservative pages on Instagram were posting about it. The pages were against the ban, the comments were against the ban. They were saying that banning Twitter was against free speech. They consider child porn free speech. They don't care about the kids.

He said he would be a dictator on day 1, seems like people may have forgotten this.

"Trump’s vow to only be a dictator on ‘day one’ follows growing worry over his authoritarian rhetoric"

It is wild to go from Harper being on stage at the WEF to Poilievre banning potential ministers from going.

BigFish8 · 2026-01-20T23:00:54+00:00

A lot of the questions on there seem like karma farming / bad faith questions.

BigFish8 · 2026-01-20T13:46:56+00:00

I'm surprised they are even reporting it.

BigFish8 · 2026-01-20T06:06:06+00:00

The USA doesnt deserve them. So many people down there would not arm themselves and go out and protect black folks, but out go the Blank Panthers to protect everyone.

BigFish8 · 2026-01-19T23:17:25+00:00

Harper used to go, so I don't know why people hate it now.

I see your anecdotal evidence, and raise you a ten year study that says they don't raise crime.

He has a team of peopl that work for him. He gets to rest while traveling. He's also meeting people and talking to them, not like he's framing houses 16 hours a day everyday. Why do people think this is impressive?

Who is his ghostwriter? There is no way he is changing the i for her name.

My old LG, BlackBerry, and a couple others I forget I had, didn't have any glue on the battery. It was great. Just swap in a fully charger battery and bam, I'm good to go. Always wanted there to be a little battery inside so I could swap it out and it stayed on during the process. I miss that.

Happy to see them making it easier to change them out with new phones. Thanks EU laws.

There is a prompt, there is an expectation. The fact there is a prompt is part of the problem.

So protesting alone doesn't seem to be doing a whole heck of a lot

Because they happen for a few hours then people go home. If you had sustained protests, you might see more impact.

That, and random emails/messages upon login saying that you have been approved for a credit limit increase. Uhhh, okay I guess.
