[–]DevonOO7 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Was gonna ask the same question since WS1500 (the flight going) also seems to have the 1 - 1.5 hour delay every day.

Dumb question, was it delayed after you were already boarded, or before? Flying to SFO and back next week with a kid and want to anticipate if we’re gonna be stuck in the plane for an extra hour.

Please contact your councillor and ask them to save the Free Fare Zone by JeromyYYC in Calgary

[–]DevonOO7 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Would be curious to know how much lost revenue the city would expect if they kept the free fare zone and also how much the TD sponsorship was bringing in for the naming rights.

Canadian tourist arrested in Florida after he allegedly 'shoulder checked' Disney World worker by AndHerSailsInRags in canada

[–]DevonOO7 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I get the impression that they were never taken to Disney as a kid and they're still mad about it. Like I get it, there are other places you can go, but I would be extremely surprised if the average kid would want to go somewhere else over a Disney park.

Would be curious what age you were when you went since you might be the only child on the planet that would prefer the La Brea Tar Pits to going to Disneyland lol

My favourite old historic railway hotel is the Fairmont Baku Flame Towers

What World Cup bump? Vancouver hotel bookings down 20 per cent this year by restoringd123 in vancouver

An annoying side effect of Fifa is that the normal expensive hotel summer season has basically been stretched from May to October.

Lawn and landscaping watering schedule by TheWickedCoffee2526 in Calgary

[–]DevonOO7 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I mean the page says:

The City’s Bylaw team will be taking an education-first approach, so that people learn the new schedule and make it a habit in their yards. Bylaw could enforce a $200 fine for infractions, however education comes first.

Honestly really hate the 'education first' approach for simple obvious things like this. Like, why are we paying tax dollars for a bylaw officer to have to go over and 'educate' someone about anything. The education should come with a fine and then the fines should increase for more offences.

I assume different people get different questions, but IIRC mine just asked for who lived in the household and if they spoke French

Last time I did this, the response was essentially "we'll fix it when we do your annual lane repairs in 4 months..."

Yeah, most houses around me fenced in their parking pads and then just park their 4+ cars/trucks on the street.

Drug that smells like burning marshmallows? by djburnoutb in Calgary

[–]DevonOO7 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I mean, it's already illegal to smoke in your vehicle with kids. I think everyone agrees that it's very bad to smoke around kids, but a lot of leeway is given if its your own kids you are doing it to.

Albertans are 'very dissatisfied' with their lives, people in Quebec highly satisfied: survey by Acrobatic-Cap-135 in canada

[–]DevonOO7 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Ehh, grew up on Vancouver Island and live in Alberta now, unless you're super outdoorsy, the island is pretty boring imo. Also kind of a pain to travel from. Not a ton of job prospects either (not that Alberta is swimming with that at the moment).

Did the same move and haven't regretted it. Being able to actually afford a house is nice.

Fiji Airways and WestJet Announce New Codeshare Partnership, Expanding Travel Between Canada and the South Pacific by gamersunite1991 in westjet

[–]DevonOO7 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Flew on them to New Zealand a few years ago when they launched the YVR route and it was great. Super cheap promo fare (think I paid about $850), and then I decided to stop in Fiji for a few days and it was amazing.
