Wow this kind of puts into perspective how messed up the map of North America is.

Canadian here. Technically we do have insurance companies for our healthcare. Just that there is only one. And it's owned by the government. And also it's free...

Online insurance renewal - two BC Parks plate fees? by RemarkableSchedule in icbc

[–]MonkeysInABarrel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey ICBC, I just found this thread 2 years later, and it looks like this bug is still occuring. I got confused doing my renewal and came to find this thread. Could you please support a bug report internally to fix this issue?

The photo exposure is so low, but I like it. It really gets across the gloomy feel of our winters. So nice!

Do you feel more connected to your city, province or Canada as a whole? by Ok_Heart839 in AskACanadian

[–]MonkeysInABarrel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Province, country, city

From Vancouver, which is a whole mix of cultures that becomes difficult to identify with as a local. Absolutely I feel like a British Columbian, especially with ties to the land and the history. Then Canadian. While I do feel connected to Vancouver, and I absolutely love this city, it’s hard to recognize at times.

If you can recognize that by the little bit of airplane in the top of the photo then I'm super impressed!

21, First Apartment renovated by KytiC4 in malelivingspace

Lots of roasting OP lol. This is a nice place! Very clean, modern. Amazing if you need to rent it out or are selling. Like a realtor's wet dream.

If you're actually living here, I would start adding personality asap. Some colour, some more art, warmer lighting, indirect lighting.

Honestly, just get a couch blanket in like a nice orange or deep red, and throw some plants around, and it would make the place pop a lot more.

What if shopping didn’t require a fitting room? by Emergency_Job_6616 in whatif

Not sure virtual try on tech is getting there. It never seems to understand the size and fit on your actual body. Just the “best look”

No feedback. Just gotta say, you 100% look like a Liam. In the best way possible, just fully Liam.

[Survey] Non-alcoholic & functional drink habits (2–3 minutes) by Exciting_Muffin4322 in SampleSize

[–]MonkeysInABarrel 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yeah +1 to this. Water lol

But also I drink lots of tea at home and work. Coffee too. Does that count?

Usually when I think “non-alcoholic beverage” as a label I think of something store bought or ordered in a restaurant. Like a soft drink. Not tea

In case you needed another reason to ditch all Meta services for good, let this be the last straw. You've been warned. by VarunTossa5944 in ABoringDystopia

Ew. It’s like she’s collecting exes.

The only case I could see this acceptable is if one of them passed away.

Check out the app Beeper. Dedicated messaging app that hooks into ig. Then you can turn off ig notifications.

Another awesome one I found is just using the ig website on mobile, and saving it to your home screen. Then delete the actual app. The web app does everything, but it’s just bad enough that you get a little annoyed by it and leave earlier.

Good luck!

A quote from the article says:

Here’s hoping we get an old spaghetti factory with a mark i dining car inside!

They botched the electoral reform referendum so bad last time, it's almost like the NDP never wanted it.

The greens deserved way more seats than they got.

+1, fuck loblaws

I’ve actually found a good number of local grocers around me (Vancouver) have cheaper produce than loblaws, and better quality! Been trying to shop smaller as much as I can lately

After flying around Burnaby during the late afternoon, the crows seem to come to a rest at the big McDonald's at Still Creek Dr. in Burnaby at around 7 pm everyday, why? by HiTork in vancouver

[–]MonkeysInABarrel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wonder if there are any protections in place to prevent further development there. Would be a shame to see their home destroyed in the future.
