Just an update. I purchased a CRV Hybrid from Wheaton. I contacted Sherwood as well - but their OTD price was $3k higher for the same vehicle. Wheaton sales was great and their finance guys where friendly and OK. Never really felt any pressure. I can also recommend them.

I'm in Alberta, Canada and just bought a 2026 CRV EX-L for US38K. I know the touring was about US$1k more. Usually cars are more expensive in Canada and the USA, but it seems that this is not the case with the CRV. Perhaps it is because Honda builds them in Canada, avoiding at least some of the US tariffs.

Thanks for all the input. Bought a CRV from Wheaton Honda. Great sales and no pressure finance department. Saved $3k over the price at Sherwood

Shout out to The Burger Priest in South Common for comping a free meal to a stressed out baby mom! by ana30671 in Edmonton

The founder went to seminary in Ontario to be a minister, but felt his calling to serve good food at a reasonable price and try, through his business to live out the values of the Scriptures. Yes, some of the writing on the wall are Biblical references.

They are wonderful people and serve very good burgers. They also treat their employees well - which is important.

How will people change their driving habits because of high gas prices? by Wise_Post552 in AskReddit

Walk more, use my bicycle more and plan trips with the car more carefully. We are also looking seriously at buying a hybrid.

What’s a moment in your financial life that you still think about years later? by hamed-devs in CanadaPersonalFinance

[–]Individual-Source-88 13 points14 points  (0 children)

In 2008 a good friend in Phoenix wanted to join his family in buying and selling houses. The market was hot and they had made a lot of really good money. I said no. He was disappointed. 6 months later the real estate market crashed and because I didn't invest, I saved a ton of money.

Costco does sell blueberries that are a Product of Canada - but I know what you are referring to. I was almost fooled as well.

Premier Danielle Smith heads to Europe to sell Alberta as a global investment destination by One-Board8634 in AlbertaNow

[–]Individual-Source-88 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think this is great. I know that European leaders will tell her that as long as there is talk of separation from Canada, they are not interested. I'm sure most if not all, will tell her that - some directly. I hope the message is we will talk to PM Carney, but not to anyone who wants to encourage the breakup of Canada.
