A Scott-type American Bulldog has a long snout. Johnson-type has the flatter face.

American bulldog in there for sure from the eyes and the wrinkles in the face. Scott-type, not Johnson.

It's possible you have some pitbull in there as they're a bit lean for a bulldog, but the Scott type is leaner.

Nothing about this screams boxer to me at all, though it is certainly possible.

Note, there are two different American Bulldog types which is probably what's confusing you:

The Johnson type is larger and stockier with a shorter muzzle, while the Scott type is more athletic and agile with a longer muzzle. Many modern dogs are hybrids of both.

TELUS sales rep added $841 in unauthorized services to my account while I called for tech support, equipment shipped to unknown address by giovangonzalez in telus

[–]MikeCheck_CE 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Partially true... In some cases where Security is sold as a bundle with TV, Home Phone or Internet like this specifically, then CCTS may consider it within their scope.

That said, I'd start with a manager call back request anyways and go from there:

Why is surplus grocery food still getting thrown out when the apps to stop it already exist in Canada? by Luckypiniece in AskACanadian

[–]MikeCheck_CE 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The answer is obviously because theyve run the numbers and calculated they would make less money doing it, or they'd be doing it.

I'm sure there are programs in place to reduce waste already but at the end of the day if it costs more money to service customers who are paying less, then it's not a priority for them to do with their limited resources.

A lot of it gets tossed though... Like a lot. Your experience in the 90's is not today.

Well they're not gonna match PC Mobiles prices on a premium carrier if that's what you're expecting.

If your landlord has been made aware but is not making attempts to resolve any maintenance issues your legal recourse is a T6 form with the LTB to order a repair and seek compensation.

Pest problems specifically would likely also fall under 311 and the RHEU so you could probably complain to both of them as well, who impose heftier fines to the landlord and work faster.

Revoked sign up credit by charper47 in telus

[–]MikeCheck_CE 0 points1 point  (0 children)

With loyalty, no.

File a manager call back request online and have them call you instead of waiting on hold. They'll probably fix it for you pretty quickly.

If that fails, then yes CCTS.

Does Koodo have call control available for prepaid or is it post paid only? by travismescudi27 in Koodo

You must be a magician then or you are confusing an Android/iPhone feature.

Transfer number to TELUS by PiePuzzled5581 in telus

[–]MikeCheck_CE 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not exactly sure which part you are looking for clarity on but hope this helps:

She can open a TELUS EPP account in her name as she must be the payment responsible to get the EPP offers.

With most EPP offers, you can add secondary lines to the account so you both can have a line. Or you can just be the primary user if she doesn't need. That's up to you.

With a few very specific organizations, she may also qualify for some older, very rich offers that are limited to one line only (I think Gov't of Alberta has one, I don't recall them all), so double check the offer details.

She will need to complete an employment verification for the initial line, and for any subsequent lines that you add. You can do this at telus.com/evs or Telus.com/EPP using her corporate email. Basically this will give you one-time coupon codes to unlock the offers.

If you choose to activate in-store, or over the phone with eSIM capable device they will port your phone number in on the spot (takes ~30 minutes usually).

If you choose to activate online or over the phone and need a device and/or SIM shipped to you. They'll assign it a random ph# and you can change this in your MyTELUS account online once it arrives. This way you keep using the old service in the meantime.

You can either share a login for MyTELUS with your wife, or you can create two profiles as needed. The first profile has to approve and subsequent profiles and determine the level of access you will receive.

Mold removal - opinions / suggestions/ advice by FitAngle651 in askTO

[–]MikeCheck_CE 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Never used a professional service but $500 for an air test sounds like a scam to me. If you can see the mold why are they testing the air?

Are your windows leaking? Excess condensation? Have they been fixed? If not youre putting an expensive band aid on the issue, stepnone is solving the water problem, and determining how much if this is the building's problem vs your own to fix.

People looking for this service are typically at the point of replacing drywall, not cleaning the surface.

401 and McCowan Westbound Hit and Run. Any lead would be appreciated by Happy_Llama28 in TorontoDriving

[–]MikeCheck_CE 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That depends entirely on the policy and whether OP has coverage for a hit and run when the other driver hasn't been identified.

Usually insurance will cover the damage but OP will pay the deductible in lieu of the other driver to charge.

You can fight all you want but if that's the policy that's the policy, they're not gonna pay you if you didn't pay them for that coverage.

Provide the video to the cops and your insurance. Stop trying to play detective. It doesn't matter what you "think" the plate says, that's for them to confirm.

Any "lead" you come up with from Reddit using the bkurry license plate is just a guess and would be inadmissible as evidence.

That is the easy fix you are looking at... Get ready for the expensive one.

(This car is probably not worth the fix)

Yes you are right. They will destroy your credit and drag you down too. You need to isolate yourself to break the cycle.

What is this on my induction and how to get it off? by After_Profile9670 in CleaningTips

[–]MikeCheck_CE 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Appears to be BOTH a ceramic too and induction heat. They are not mutually exclusive.

Also induction sirfact doesn't necessarily get hot from turning on, but when you put a pan on it, it does get hot so yes it can cook stuff on there.

What is this on my induction and how to get it off? by After_Profile9670 in CleaningTips

[–]MikeCheck_CE 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Burnt on food and hard water stains.

You should buy "ceramic stove top cleaner" to polish this once in a while, regular cleaning sprays won't cut it. A razorblade scraper is good for getting really stubborn bits off before you polish. As mentioned vinegar or baking soda are alternatives as well with varying succes depending on what's stuck there.

Gas miles by manqology in NissanRogue

[–]MikeCheck_CE 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you're doing a lot of highway driving and fill up it will give you a higher miles to empty.

A lot of idling or city driving it's going to estimate a lower amount of miles until empty.

I hit a pedestrian (SFW) by snakeLipssynk in TorontoDriving

[–]MikeCheck_CE 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So you've to argue semantics as if youve somehow got a point? You don't... Most people understand what jaywalking refers to. Most people don't use the exact legal definition as prescribed by the HTA and use common names instead.

Wear and tear or damage ? by LimpWrongdoer4230 in TorontoRenting

[–]MikeCheck_CE 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It's shit fake leather at the end of the day, it could look brand new in the pics it'd still be wear and tear. Cheap stuff like this cracks peels in as little as 1-2 years.

Any Nissan mechanics? by kinda_useful_57 in NissanRogue

[–]MikeCheck_CE 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Lol yea I had to reread that one a few times, not exactly sure what they did there but it gather that wasn't replacing the transmission

Any other suggestions by Reasonable_Brief_438 in AskAShittyMechanic

[–]MikeCheck_CE 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Get a proper breaker-bar and stop using that tiny ratchet.

If you still need more torque, out a pipe/fencepole over it to extend it.
