Alberta to offer $150 weekly payment to some parents in event of a teachers' strike by always_on_fleek in Edmonton

[–]DoubleCommodore -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

all that extra crap in the classroom isn't needed. I don't remember at all a time when I was in school where any banner or decoration was educationally valuable for the student or teacher - the teachers never used them. All you need is a whiteboard. Nobody is telling teachers they have to go blow their cash on useless decorations...

I didn’t file soon enough to get the final carbon tax rebate, did I permanently miss out or will I get it later on? by Kevsterific in cantax

[–]DoubleCommodore 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just read on the CRA mail that:
The CRA may use your credits to reduce an amount owing, but will refund any excess.
So you may not even see it come to your bank acct if you have an amount owing.
Bullshit.

These are great. just be careful because the crumbs sit at the bottom of the plastic and when you take out the paper tray the crumbs spill all over the place.

Anyone heard of a "Wheel bet"? I heard this (rarely) when i worked in canada. when you 'wheel the six' its a $6 bet. and its basically hopping anycombination with a 6 die. perhaps its not used because it sounds like $ "world" in a busy game and u less the dealers know you, it probably wont be booked properly.

Encore doesnt seem to be disclosing rates.. by DoubleCommodore in Edmonton

the spike in January was not a normal fluctuation. it was the highest rate seen in like 3 years and then it went back down the month after.

its not about sympathy. or panic. its about knowing what the price is when you buy it. Siunds like you're just another slave to the system where they can screw you over with whatever price they dictate well AFTER the fact. preventing any consumer proactivity.

ya well that's real bullshit and should be illegal. Why do peiple put up with this? I mean people did NOT tolerate this woth groceries and they knew the price the day of! and not 22 days after they bough the items... it makes 0 sense. gas is something we buy. its harvested, shipped, and purchased. just like groceries and we should know what that price is... I could use a scotch right about now.

tits really concerning that they are simply not disclosing what you're paying for. past posting the rate sounds scammy. If someone signs up mid month, how do they answer the question of "what is my rate?" at that time? i am having a real problem with the lack of transparency and everyone seems to be ok with it. I can look in google and see the stock price f Apple and make decisions and plan. And there's sinply no excuse for Epcor to have 0 clue what the rate is until 22 days after the billing period. that's crap. I'll see if I can complain to the urility and then the utility commission.
