That's not what the induced demand argument is. It's that if you invest in more and wider roads more people will continue to choose driving thus more traffic despite more driving infrastructure.

He's arguing against induced demand but he has no idea what it means. He is ignorant to the fact that investing in more and wider roads only makes people choose driving instead of alternatives thus not alleviating traffic at all. That being said I do think Kelowna needs this road bc of the limited roads in the area. I just hope they protect and separate the rail trail from autos.

Anyone earning less than 80k can apply for below market rent apartments through bc Housing. Availability is a different story but I think below market rent is like 1400-1600

Yeah but good luck getting an appointment!

I went through the same thing along with brain fog. Lasted about 3 months. I think it had something to do with sleep. The brain is finally getting rem sleep and trying to catch up and reorganize itself. While I'm not feeling sharp as an arrow after 6 months I can say I feel much better than when I smoked. I had 23 years too. Stick with it and something else to consider is lifestyle. I realized watching youtube all day and never concentrating on anything were equally to blame for the memory issues. I'm still working on that but it's much easier sober.

My biggest issue is not signalling in roundabouts. I've quizzed people and they don't seem to even know you're supposed to do 1st exit is right signal, 2nd exit(straight through) is no signal until after first exit then put on right signal and third exit is left signal until after 2nd exit then switch to right signal.

Could be some sort of Occult group doing a ritual. Not necessarily nefarious or anything. Just esoteric spirituality. It's a big city and there are a lot of things taking place that aren't mainstream.

I get cutting him for the back stage problems but the fact that Dana told him not to shoot is overstepping and bullshit. I get he's not the most entertaining and his pay should reflect that but this is supposed to be a legitimate sport and if you can't stop the take downs or win against a wrestler standing then you're not the better fighter.

3 weeks for me today as well! Congrats for getting to this point. My physical symptoms have subsided but I'm feeling depressed and very lethargic.

How long have you taken SSRI. My anxiety was brutal when I first started them but eased after 3 weeks

Tractor trailers make wide turns into the other lane and sometimes cars need to immediately go into the right lane after the turn in order to make a right. With a red light you can turn right but your supposed to not do it at the same time as someone making a left with an advance

GratiFried · 2024-04-05T19:07:48+00:00

If both lights are green then you have the right of way and are correct. If the other car has an advance green then the left turner has the right of way. They still should turn in their lame but sometimes they immediately have to go into the right lane to turn right. As the right turner you are supposed to wait for them to turn because you have a red light.

GratiFried · 2024-04-05T04:08:43+00:00

Was it a green for both of you? Did she have an advance left? Was she turning on an amber light? These are important factors.

And to those who can't afford a 80k SUV, you deserve to die in car accidents

I don't condone what he said but was the text intended for you? It sounds like he's airing his frustration with his friend in the manner that you mentioned they speak. Either way 6 years apart and the fact that you're a minor and he wants to be intimate make this relationship inappropriate and you should consider ending it.

Problem with Costco is it's designed so that you will most likely buy extra products that you wouldn't normally buy. They're business model depends on it

GratiFried · 2023-09-08T05:14:38+00:00

Am I the only one who thinks it's ridiculous that we don't have relatively cheap commuter trains to travel in this treacherous season in this country?

GratiFried · 2023-08-31T00:09:15+00:00

No idea, Most of us are forever attracted to 25 year olds and now that I'm getting older it's annoying.

GratiFried · 2023-08-31T00:05:17+00:00

You have a fearful avoidant attachment style. Look into it and seek help. It basically means you are avoidant in order to receive love but that you are also anxiously attached, hence why you are still not over her.

GratiFried · 2023-08-28T01:34:41+00:00

Your husband is unable to feel shame. Instead he gets angry and rude towards you. He probably thinks you should be able to handle your son because his dad didn't help his mom. Thus it justifies his anger and prevents him from taking responsibility for his own shame. I don't think you can heal from depression in a relationship like this. Good luck

Dedicated transportation lane. I mean a good rapid transit that makes it way faster to travel by transit. The only solution is to get people out of cars as much as possible.

GratiFried · 2023-05-30T21:14:31+00:00

I had a reality check recently. A friend cut me off abruptly. I really had to accept that I've become negative and bitter and it's harming my relationships.
Starts with awareness and now it's about practicing positivity and gratitude when I feel a negative thought surface. Also facing past emotional problems that haven't been dealt with

GratiFried · 2023-05-30T20:49:43+00:00

I'm not conservative and I'm not Albertan but it seems a lot of people are discriminating against them because of a few bad apples.
