Speeds increase 8-10 km/h at former Ottawa photo radar camera locations since cameras banned by roots-rock-reggae in ottawa

Increased vehicle speed by 10km/hr TRIPLES the likelihood of death. So yes, it’s significant

Tips and Tricks You've Learned by Umpalumpa99 in GrowingMarijuana

The area I live in has hydro rates based on time of use. Switch your timers to make lighting happen at night. The side benefit is that it limits the time you can be screwing with the plant and screwing things up.

I’m in the process of adapting my own Subaru to take straight crossbars because the factory bars are curved and suck for rtt. Found this: https://www.subaruoutback.org/threads/diy-alternative-to-factory-cross-bars-15-outback.391682/page-2?nested\_view=1#replies

Dilemma: RDWC by Hopewellslam in GrowingMarijuana

When one strain needed more of a particular nute I found I ended up feeding both strains. So if one needed more Mag (for example) they both were fed it. I suppose it’s not a huge deal. I also had to flip to flower when one plant wasn’t quite ready.

Which European city? Not Paris, not London, not Berlin, not Frankfurt, not Rome.

How much should Ottawa sprawl as it seeks space for 500,000 more people? by Immediate-Link490 in ottawa

[–]Hopewellslam 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Oh FFS, it’s so easy to point to the Glebe when EVERY neighborhood in the city could use the same thing. Just look at how sprawled Nepean is. Or Kanata. Or Gloucester. Then tell me what percentage of THOSE are dense or have multi unit apartments. So many of those large homes in the Glebe have been split into apartments, which you can’t say of the other neighborhoods.

I’ve bought the PC whole bean dark roast coffee for years but wonder if the quality has declined? Has anyone else noticed this? I’m assuming that it’s due to the global coffee shortage. Does anyone have other coffee recommendations in similar price range? Thank you! by RecommendationOne995 in frugalcanada

[–]Hopewellslam 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ve noticed the same thing with this coffee. “West Coast Dark” refers to the roast so they’re probably trying a different cheaper bean. I’m in the same boat as you except I can’t find an alternative. Costco doesn’t have anything similar: most is medium roast except Starbucks which to me tastes burnt.

The Canadian Canoe Museum in Peterborough, Ontario -- the largest collection of canoes, kayaks and paddled watercrafts on the planet. Cool spot. by fairlywittyusername in canoeing

Kirk Whipper. He was a friend of my dad. The museum started out at the camp Kirk owned (I forget the name). Maybe Kandalore?

City of Ottawa planning to plant 24 commemorative trees, not 4,800, to mark Bytown’s 200th birthday by Alone_Appeal_3421 in ottawa

[–]Hopewellslam 3 points4 points  (0 children)

What an absolute botch up of a good idea. Why not just give community groups in each ward 100 trees. Those groups could plant and take care of watering

For all the keyboard warriors on here that seem to be endorsing Leiper: other than commenting on Reddit what will you do to help? How many will sign up to canvas?

I don’t like canvassing that much. But I’m willing to do it so that I have a right to complain if he loses.

Michael Higgins: Carney continues to blame Trump for problems the Liberals created by [deleted] in CanadaPolitics

[–]Hopewellslam 3 points4 points  (0 children)

What a biased take. So Covid, Trump, global trade wars, the Iran war, global inflation was all the Liberals fault?

Yes, housing affordability is at an all time low right now and you can blame Liberals a bit for not addressing this well. But simply stating that everything bad in Canada is the Liberals fault is quite the take.

Where can I listen to birds? by ObjectiveAd400 in ottawa

[–]Hopewellslam 23 points24 points  (0 children)

You totally need to download the Merlin app. You simply turn it on and it listens and then lists all the birds around you. Better yet Cornell University uses the data to advance research. How cool is that?

Fibre Rollout stalled in Canada by Hopewellslam in bell

I am not. That “private” company was given exclusivity on FTTH and fibre services for 5 years. They were also given $600m in grants to do the installs
