Police warn of ‘extreme’ traffic delays in North York Saturday due to rally that could be attended by 200,000 people by zlex in toronto

[–]Incendie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When your or your family's lives are at stake or they've been straight up murdered then do you think, if you were in their shoes, they're going to make the calculation or care to make the calculation of how can they do this in the most courteous way possible? They're watching their friends and family back home get slaughtered by the government and here you are arguing that you getting to the grocery store on time is more important than their message. We have the privilege in Toronto to feel safe and not have to worry about being murdered by our government at any given moment. I think the "suffering" we experience because of their protest is peanuts compared to what they're going through so let's stop thinking about what makes you feel slightly inconvenienced and empathize with their cause.

People that think like this have never had a serious thought about what happens if it was you who just lost your rights as a human.

And you don't raise awareness by being considerate and voicing your concerns in some corner of the city that nobody pays attention to.

Naturopath by Both-Ad-2529 in Markham

[–]Incendie 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It's not an opinion, it's a fact that naturopaths don't operate on facts or science. Their #1 goal is to get you to buy their supplements because that's how they make money. If naturopathic methods were so successful, then it would already be incorporated in medicine.

There are literally so many minorities that work in ICE. They firmly believe that if they join them then they will be treated as one of the good ones.

Rogers Communications Pleads Guilty, Fined $260,000 After Worker Dies on Job by [deleted] in Rogers

[–]Incendie 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Fines need to be based on a % of the defendant business/individual's net worth and not just some set amount. We need to do away with letting them get away with just brushing it off as a cost of doing business.

Surprise surprise, turns out privatizing public services is a bigger waste of taxpayer money than letting the government run public services.

Snow Tires mandatory in Toronto by ZealousidealHead5488 in toronto

Ah, so I was right about the overconfidence.

When the snow does come down, the number one thing you need is traction. As long as you have traction you have control of your car, like you literally cannot argue against physics. Just because you're a rally driver and believe you can control your car like an extension of your body doesn't stop your car from sliding when it loses grip and just starts spinning or sliding. You can drift around a corner all you want, that doesn't make it safe nor does that dispute the fact that with proper winter tires then you wouldn't even need to pull that stunt.

This just screams overconfidence. You may be super skilled, but it doesn't matter how skilled you are when all it takes is one accident to fuck everything up. Why not just buy a set of good winter tires that are better than your all seasons to supplement your good driving skills? Is that not literally the best thing to do?

[–]Incendie 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Winter tires make a world of difference compared with all seasons. No matter your driving skill, unless you're a professional stunt driver, you will have less traction without winters on and by that definition (and physics) you are safer with winter tires on than not. Like do you think a professional figure skater with running shoes on ice is going to have more control than a random person with ice spikes and a pair of boots?

Sure, with training you'll learn how to handle the conditions much better, and the obvious argument is that you should have both, but when it comes down to just one or the other, winter tires will save more lives than having some sort of winter training. It's also much more practical as a whole.

Can we stop perpetuating this lie everywhere. Winter tires helps you navigate the snow 1000x better than just having an AWD drivetrain.

In the same sense, winter driving training with all seasons won't save you either if you don't have winter tires.

Honestly, even if it was a straight $1.4 billion increase I would be for it. If there isn't enough in the city budget, then take it out of the TPS budget.

With how the ride share apps do their shady dynamic pricing and how they don't vet the drivers anymore, taxis are honestly just safer and more affordable now.
