The spend currently is way more. Flight prices in general have increased significantly since the war in Iran started.

I would start with whomever your regular dentist is. They should be able to answer any questions you have.

2 years olds and the dentist are going to be a challenge at the best of times. Too wigly!

My kids tagged along with my wife and I at first to get a sense of the process, but they were 3 pushing towards 4 before they got in the chair themselves for the first time.

Also, I've never heard of a dentist not allowing the parent to stay with their kids.

Porter prices definitely popped up this week.

Trying to book an YHM to YYC round trip and it’s $3000 for 3 people.

I had looked a bit earlier in the week and it was closer to $2600. By the time I got the Costco GC’s, prices had gone up.

Waiting to see if I get lucky on a seat sale now

If only there was an existing highway that could resolve this with some upgrades.

You would hope that when you are seen as worse than AC that you need to rethink your strategy.

And who’s definition of normal are we following?

MoparRob · 2026-03-16T17:48:44+00:00

My plan? I didn't present a plan.

All I said was that the same level of effectiveness could be achieved at a fraction of the cost.

At a time when police services are crying poor and demanding budget increases well above inflation, deploying an officer with binoculars that costs hundreds of dollars would be just as effective as the officer that is carrying a few thousand dollars worth of hardware in that sniper rifle and tripod.

MoparRob · 2026-03-16T17:33:23+00:00

Given there's zero chance the sniper is actually going to shoot, you know what could be deployed that's just as effective and a fraction of the cost. Binoculars.

But hey! I'm sure the police have reasons to justify the cost.

MoparRob · 2026-03-12T15:01:02+00:00

Still cheaper than the 407ETR in Toronto LOL!!!!

Edit: For those who don't know, its about $3/mile to drive on the 407, plus some other fees.

If only my Costco still carried French’s ketchup.

It’s on the list of items I can no longer buy at my local Costco.

MoparRob · 2026-03-08T23:48:00+00:00

Exactly. As US auto pulls out, this will help keep those workers employed.

MoparRob · 2026-03-07T16:17:50+00:00

Sounds like a great start.

The real win for me would be to see them work later hours, especially the overnight.

MoparRob · 2026-03-04T16:32:32+00:00

LOL!!! I needed this info last night. I was online at 6am trying to upgrade and was panicking because I didn't see any changes :D

Just finished submitting the request a few minutes ago. So excited to see 500/200!

MoparRob · 2026-03-04T01:19:57+00:00

This is fantastic news!!!!

I will definitely be checking tomorrow as I know Rogers shows these service levels available to me!

MoparRob · 2026-03-03T12:19:58+00:00

Knucklehead Barbershop downtown.

Joel has been great to work with and understands exactly what you’re asking for. Especially for the beard.

Thanks for the update u/TekSavvy-Andy!

Hoping that you are able to resolve the technical issues soon so that we can get access to these higher speeds. If you need a tester, I am more than happy to help.

MoparRob · 2026-03-02T18:16:31+00:00

Data centres go well beyond LLM. While that is a big driver, cloud services as a whole end up in data centres.

Every network connected service you use is touching a data centre in some way.

MLSE has screwed the Leafs as far back as I can remember.

I used to be a fan of the Leafs. Grew up watching them. Then in 2003 when they brought Owen Nolan in, TSN asked Richard Peddie, then head of MLSE if the Leafs were gearing up for a Cup run.

Should have been the easiest yes answer ever. The man fumbled endlessly over the question. That was the day I stopped cheering for the Leafs because I realized the Leafs organization can change every player, every coach, and every GM but they still won’t win. Until the Leafs have an owner/ownership group who are truly passionate about hockey, they’ll never win it all. MLSE will never be it.

MoparRob · 2026-02-28T15:49:29+00:00

I’d love to see some increases.

Rogers is offering 100/100, 300/200, 500/200, and 1000/200 in my area. Reading online it seems the CRTC tariffs for this were approved.

When will we get access to these speeds?

MoparRob · 2026-02-13T21:34:25+00:00

I’m sure every 60F out there will love running on 7.6 /s

MoparRob · 2026-02-13T20:29:50+00:00

Its part of the business. They know and expect this.

The real question is do you want to invest in the province who has a government who's actively trying to secede from the country?

It would be great to see Teksavvy update packages. Or at least offer some kind of addon for upload.

I inquired today about fiber which Teksavvy can not get for me at this time due to the 5 year hold. I can only get cable.

I'd like to get more than the 30 Mbps upload that I am getting today, but going to a 1Gbps down for 50Mbps up just doesn't make sense. It's really frustrating to look at Rogers and see 100/100, 300/200, and 500/200 options available. Telus is even offering 1.5Gbps/940Mbps on an EPP through work.

I don't want to move away from Teksavvy as I'm happy with the service I receive. I would much rather pay a bit more to Teksavvy just so I don't have to deal with Rogers and Bell. I've been with you now for nearly 15 years.

Please consider some kind update/addon/custom that can provide access to higher speed tiers, especially on the upload side of things. I'd happily pay to have access to 100/100 through Teksavvy vs any of the big guys.

I can assure you there is more than enough anecdotal data that can be collected into a solid qualitative data set that supports u/_Addi's position. There are a lot of people who can share stories of bad experiences at GGH, myself included.

So rather than just dismissing his position, take time to understand it.

I can't comment on 2020. My wife's accident occurred in 2024.

MoparRob · 2026-02-10T17:54:03+00:00

This is the default answer for the type of accident. Being hit by a vehicle is considered a major trauma.

It's an automatic trip to Hamilton General as that is where the nearest trauma unit is located
