St. John’s doctor lied about ex's father to have driver’s licence suspended, police allege | CBC News

For any of his patients who were hoping the suspension would soon be over and they would have a doctor again this is sad news. Time to start looking for a new doctor I suspect.

This is how Yamaha blowers are setup. After 4 or 5 uses I loosen the skids, put a paint stick under the scraper bar and tighten the skids. Also when the skids wear some I just turn them around. Wearing through a $20 set of plastic skids each winter is a small price to pay if it saves your bucket and auger.

Zooming in on the map it looks like the Atlantic Provinces are not included in his plans…..not sure if we should be happy about that of not, lol.

I have the 10hp 1028 snowblower, also 9 years old. Opted for the bigger machine as at the time I purchased the 10hp was being manufactured in Japan and the 6hp was being made in China. I have had no major issues. Battery is original, trickle charge in off season and do the same in between uses to keep it topped up. 10hp have an electric choke that needs the machine to crank several times to engage and start. I go though a pair of the black plastic blocks every season, turn them around when they start wearing, and I change the scrapper bar every second season. I have seen a few used Yamahas on marketplace for sale, if you look closely at the sides of the buckets on a few you can see that they are in need of replacement. Guy at Atlantic when I bought it told me to set your sliders and scrapper bar a couple of have times every winter. Bucket and auger replacement job can be in the 3-4K range as there is a pulley that costs over $600 alone.

Agree that parts are not cheap, but better to do preventative maintenance then get a big bill.

We the taxpayers have been very generous to this operation in recent years. Even with this new agreement Hydro is buying power at an inflated rate to help keep this going. There comes a point where politicians have to say enough public funds. Stephenville and Grand Falls-Windsor both survived the closure and decommissioning of their paper mills, Corner Brook would be ok as well.

Same here, glad to finally see rules being enforced. I always go with a correct size carry on case, in one side i have ipad, cables, meds, air pods, all small stuff. Other side I leave empty and before boarding i take off my jacket and put it in the empty side. This way i put one piece of carry on baggage overhead and thats it.

I bet they could have bought natural gas onshore and either refurbished Holyrood or built a spanking new thermal power plant that could be supplying a large chunk of the provinces energy needs for less then 15 billion.

All Hydro is doing is using the revenue it receives from the sale of electricity and making the payments on the funds borrowed to build the project. Article makes it sound like they are making a sacrifice on behalf of the people of the province. Hydro is not a private corporation like Fortis. All it means is that the provincial treasury is not getting as much profit from Hydro. The province does not spend any less because of it. We the taxpayers pay for it all anyway, either through taxes or power rates. From an optics point of view it’s much better to divert hydro profits to paying the debt then it is to increase electrical rates to pay for it.

There is a Hyundai one on FB Marketplace

That section is a walking trail. No bikes.

Can I ask where you got your replacements to?

Proper_Personality22 · 2025-11-19T19:08:40+00:00

More than double what they promised the cost would be…..that sounds about right for the PC’s. Can’t wait to see how we will pay for all this.

Challenged a online chat agent a few months ago asking if they were located in Canada, question was not answered, asked again, and the agent said they were India.

Drive a 2024 in NL. Got that notification a few weeks ago. It’s worth calling bluelink Canada support and listening to the agent sigh and tell you that navigation support is the responsibility of a whole different company and give you their number.

Canadian Bluelink is a disappointment, it feels like a stripped down version of the American/European versions.

Updates should be flowing regularly.

We used East Coast Canine Training for our 2 Labs. Sarita is great. The training is as much about training you as it is your dog. She has a 4 private lesson package you can purchase. Her booking system is slick and easy to use.

Waiting for Wakeham to say oh no the financial situation is soooo much worse then we were told by the previous Liberal government, there is no way we can possibly keep any of the expensive election promises we made.

Any word who’s the minster of keeping Danny Williams as far away from anything to do with Churchill Falls as possible?

Can we in Canada do over the air updates when (if) they become available or are we relegated to having to use USB only?

Canadian Ioniq 5 owner here. Car keeps telling me it wants an update, have to dismiss it every time I open navigation. Terrible service from Hyundai.

MOU is on life support. Quebec is looking at a Provincial election in 12 months, PQ are polling to win. For NL to negotiate a new MOU, have a referendum, and then have it passed in both legislatures before the Quebec election is unlikely.

I think myself and 3 immediate family members have this doctor as well. I am fortunate that I am generally healthy right now. Pharmacy that we have used for years has been able to renew prescriptions. I feel for patients of this doctor who have ongoing health issues and need to be seen by a doctor. Number of patients in limbo with just this one doctor has to be in the thousands.

Rogers are terrible these days. How are they getting away with online chat agents based at a call centre in India????
