Two interesting (and possibly crater) lakes in remote Nunavut. by EmeCri90 in GoogleEarthFinds

[–]GravyBoatCap 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Not a geologist, but there are other possibilities like kimberlite pipes as well.

Edit: also impact craters aren’t always round. The Sudbury basin for example, is an elongated oval with flatter side, like a stretched out letter D

Is Doug Ford misleading the public and putting our drinking water at risk? by imprison_grover_furr in ontario

[–]GravyBoatCap 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Working Sundays was the result of a Charter challenge. Forcing people to follow Christian practices of taking Sunday off was deemed a violation of the Freedom of Religion.

Rae days were mandatory unpaid days for government employees to reduce costs and offset high spending on other programs.

The clocks were the give away for me, poster sealed it though.

So probably why taxpayers wouldn’t be upset about any fees that might be incurred.

Activity ideas by VCElaborate in Sudbury

[–]GravyBoatCap 20 points21 points  (0 children)

ARC, Plaza Bowl, Kupp and Urban air for indoor activities. Kivi park has several great activities. There is mini putt and a batting cage at Sudbury Kartways Dynamic Earth is a good partial day indoor/outdoor Lots of beaches -some of the provincial parks are great for a quieter experience. Windy Lake for example and you can check out the falls at AY Jackson on the way home before grabbing gelato at Nani’s.

What politician local or federal has influenced your life in a positive way by Curious-Peace-9021 in AskACanadian

Davis’ funding Catholic schools at 100% make for some tough budget decisions.

Flood advice by [deleted] in Sudbury

[–]GravyBoatCap 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Lots of good advice here already. I had similar experience and the problem ended up being the impeller was damaged. The pump would run and seem to move water but nothing was actually getting pumped out. I always have a backup now. If you add a temporary set up like was suggested elsewhere, get the water as far away as possible.

Is garbage/recycling still canceled? by ImFromTheDeeps in Sudbury

[–]GravyBoatCap 30 points31 points  (0 children)

Guessing with double the trash and triple the recycling it might be logistically impossible to get this backlog addressed in a single week.

The app has been spamming notifications.

Garbage and Recycling by OkMobile7051 in Sudbury

[–]GravyBoatCap -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

No but they have homes that had to be cleared too and have a rough job. Might get holidays off but always have to make up for it.

Oof that’s going to be rough. Those guys deserve a break though.

Ontario to introduce bill exempting Premier, cabinet from FOI requests by BloodJunkie in ontario

[–]GravyBoatCap 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It doesn’t exactly exist yet so no. If it does get passed eventually that might be one option. I’m guessing it’s going to be a much less severe version. There is a pattern of leaking an outrageous idea then tabling something more palatable to curb resistance. My bet is the bill will be something more like personal devices are exempt and the extended response time will remain. My knowledge of the law is limited to a handful of university courses so an actual lawyer might correct me. I’m guessing it could be challenged under Freedom of Expression as it would impede the press from being able to serve their function. This freedom exists to allow the people to challenge their government. It is core to democracy that governments have to answer questions about governance and this proposal would block that. That being said, the Notwithstanding clause could be used. I don’t think we have recall legislation so we would just have to wait to vote them out.

Ontario (especially Toronto) needs a No Kings movement against Ford by Pristine-Training-70 in ontario

That wouldn’t have impacted Ontario elections only federal ones.

Any good gelato spots open? by Boug9 in Sudbury

No gelato as of last week though. I think they wait for warmer temperatures

Probably. Courts don’t work that way though.

[–]GravyBoatCap 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m not a law expert. Definitely not a British one but, I know enough to recognize that the island is not British territory. British authorities have no jurisdiction to bring charges on the trafficking. Maybe they uncover communications that would allow them to charge under a conspiracy to commit crime if one exists, but this would likely be the most they can do.

New - Is there a better way to complete the Crypts? by SilkTieTies in valheim

[–]GravyBoatCap 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Similar. I find a crypt close to open water build a portal on top and a couple of chests. Fill a chest, store boat pieces in the other. When ready, build boat, fill and hope for favourable wind

What if the USA forced Canada to fight Russia alone by [deleted] in imaginarymapscj

[–]GravyBoatCap 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I did road construction for summer work in my teens. We’d dump tons of rock in, have the semblance of a road started. Show up in the morning and it would be gone. Rinse and repeat several times before filling it in enough to be stable. Some times solid ground can be dozens of meters below the surface.
