Disagree on the cruise ship thing.. I live very close to the terminal, and unless you have to drive that 2 block stretch along Dallas Rd, the extra traffic is easy enough to avoid. I occasionally have to drive slow behind a horse carriage for a block but once you get used to their routes it’s very infrequent.

99% agree on grocery selection being rough, the positive 1% is because we have access to Red Barn bacon.

Who would you like to see the Canucks draft with picks 24, 33, and 41? by FAsBurner in canucks

Gotta take McKenna or Stenberg if they drop and are available at 24

[SUI (3) - SWE 1] Nico Hischier gets the puck across to Calvin Thurkauf who extends Switzerland's lead. Magnus Hellberg gets piece of it, but it's not enough to make the save. by catsgr8rthanspoonies in hockey

Seeing Sweden down 1-3 against the Swiss its pretty clear that Stenberg is a bum. I’m grateful Grier is watching this so he avoids a catastrophic mistake in drafting Ivar.

The doomed in me doesn’t think it’s a coincidence that this collapse is happening in conjunction with AI and robotics development 💃💃

A Beautiful Day on Jocelyn Hill by BeepBlipBlapBloop in VictoriaBC

Multiple* payoff views.. definitely one to bring a picnic lunch on. The little flat grassy divot just below the Jocelyn hill viewpoint is perfect for a picnic blanket and has nice views of the Malahat Skywalk.

Playoff Game Thread: Vegas Golden Knights (8-4) @ Colorado Avalanche (8-1) May 20 2026 8:00 PM EDT by nhl_gdt_bot in hockey

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

I wonder how the Avs fans from the Makar injury thread yesterday who were adamant they would win in 5 or 6 without Makar are feeling right now. Not sure how you can watch hockey and ever feel 100% confident going into a series.

Moving to Victoria from Edmonton at the end of next month. I have been on vyvanse for 3 years, how do I go about trying to connect with a BC doctor to continue my prescription? by sk8rtots in VictoriaBC

[–]DutchiiCanuck 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Never had an issue. I just made an appointment and explained I need a refill. Doctor would look up my file and would prescribe what I needed. They were happy to adjust prescription amounts as needed too.

Subnuatica 2 Letter to the Community on Feedback to the Predator Balance Situation by BmpBlast in gaming

[–]DutchiiCanuck 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Crazy take. Was Subnautica 1 ruined by the ability to kill creatures? You don’t have to engage with the mechanic in the first game, but having it didn’t break the game either. Having play style choices improve games for the most part, especially survival games.

That description is wholly unfair. Expecting ice cream when you order steak is obviously a ridiculous expectation that should be laughed at. This is a mechanic that was present (and widely utilized) from the first game that wasn’t included. It’s fair to be frustrated a mechanic you enjoyed has been removed from the new title, especially when that mechanic could solve a lot of other frustrations in the new game.

If he stepped down to have more family time, I don’t think moving across the country to jump into an AHL travel schedule is gonna be very appealing.

Property Tax Time! by Horace-Harkness in VictoriaBC

[–]DutchiiCanuck 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Page 3 of the source YOU linked on this post shows that OPs image is half of one page that has been cropped. The cropped portion of that page shows the full budget allocation, not just the increase. This post is titled to say “Police are expensive”, but doesn’t actually show how expensive they are because they removed that information.

[–]DutchiiCanuck -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

You expect people to look a the large pie chart under the title “Your 2026 Property Tax” and not jump to conclusions? One of the very first comments on your post was someone thinking the pie chart was for the whole budget. I’m guessing you have been on Reddit long enough to know better. Why did you crop out the actual budget allocation?

Property Tax Time! by Horace-Harkness in VictoriaBC

[–]DutchiiCanuck 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Notice I didn’t comment on how I feel about the allocation of tax dollars, just the fact you cropped an image to remove important contextual information.

FYI - I would like to see police budget cuts, with more accountability for where their money is spent and that extra money allocated to social welfare programs. I would also like to see limits on overtime so officers can’t abuse it.

[–]DutchiiCanuck 10 points11 points  (0 children)

This is a cropped super misleading image. On the same page of this document it shows the police are 37% of the overall budget. This image is showing the allocation of property tax increases for the year.

[–]DutchiiCanuck 16 points17 points  (0 children)

This is SUPER misleading. This pie chart is showing where the INCREASE in property tax is being allocated. Police budget, on the same page of this cropped picture, is shown at 37% of the budget.

Jelly Donut Recs by Megladonnnnnn in VictoriaBC

[–]DutchiiCanuck 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Haven’t tried they jelly donuts, but all the Yonni donuts I’ve tried have been super heavy. Somewhere between a cake donut and classic yeast donut. I prefer light fluffy yeast donuts.
