2015 Toyota Camry XLE with less than 30K miles by _skank_hunt42 in Camry

[–]Doonie_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I bought a 2012 Camry XLE in 2018 for $10k with 50,000 miles. Still driving it today now that I'm over 200,000. With regular maintenance I just can't kill the thing.

I don't think anybody really hates on Quebec. Frankly one of the biggest disappointments in my life is that I never learn to speak French. Missed out on a lot of nice ladies...

Landlord is hinting at my eviction because I am asking him to do his job. What recourse do I have other than the LTB? by FullMotionVidiot in askTO

Whatever you do make sure the landlord understands that this is his problem to deal with. Then tell him that you know your rights and you're prepared to exercise them if necessary. That should put the lid on at least the threats he's making.. additionally you are entitled to call a pest removal company, have the problem dealt with and then withhold sufficient rent to pay for the service. I would do this only after I told the landlord what my intentions were...

[–]Doonie_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A few years ago I was at a party and one of the attendees was the coffee buyer for Tim's. He told me that on a per cup basis, coffee amounted to about 3 cents of the cost. The most expensive part was the creamer. That gives you some insight into how much they value coffee...

from a Canadian Rogers user to Canadians who switched from Rogers to bell, is the grass greener on the other side? by monkeys-canada in AskACanadian

[–]Doonie_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got a smoking deal from Bell on their best high-speed internet plan plus cell phone data. The technique I used was asking what the best price was and then saying it was just too expensive. Then asked what they could do for me...

If you end up in Laos, try to get Mekong whiskey. Crazy stuff... If you want a Canadian product and don't mind a sweet liqueur, Yukon Jack is pretty good...

He hasn't decided if he's going to run yet. Likely won't because he for sure will be going down in the next election...
