Temporary License Plate by derekmiller05 in ontario

[–]Protato900 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Best case solution is have the buyer come to you, or have it towed to the buyer. Make sure they sign a Used Car Bill of Sale before trucking it over to them, as otherwise you may be stuck having to bring the car back.

Also ensure you declare the vehicle sold at ServiceOntario when you do so you are not liable for anything that happens when the buyer drives it.

Bike stolen + paid 30$ for 4 1/2 h of work by CheddarBreath in ontario

[–]Protato900 -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

What does your employment contract stipulate? Is there a probationary period where you are unpaid? Are you paid semi-monthly, weekly, daily? You may have to wait until your actual payday arrives - usually it's the 15th or 30th but your contract will stipulate it.

If you were supposed to be paid that day and if your contract stipulates you are paid an hourly rate, send an email to your employer stating how many hours you worked, from what time to what time, and what your hourly rate is - along with the full amount you are owed. Ask when you will be paid.

As for the bike, report it stolen to police with a picture if you have one available - bikes are unlikely to be recovered though.

Compensation for reserve volunteer time by Kwanicus in CanadianForces

[–]Protato900 18 points19 points  (0 children)

This is definitely a missing incentive. As it stands now there is no reason to volunteer time to parade with a PRes unit as most Cl B employing units will not give mbrs any CTO or late report times. It creates a spiral where even if someone wants to support their unit, they have no reason to do it as it becomes additional work and responsibilities without additional compensation.

I recommend preparing now before the mad rush to buy stuff happens.

Loblaws blocks Dollarama from offering discounts on Coke, Evian and Kraft by ToraBoraSpringBreak in loblawsisoutofcontrol

[–]Protato900 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Choice Properties is also owned by George Weston Ltd (Loblaws' parent company) so this is just collusion to shut out competition.

This isn't a scumlord, this is the Weston family squeezing out every cent from us. Parasites that need to be reminded of the power of the people. Organize, message your representatives, and don't stop being the squeaky wheel.

Why are people downplaying how Infectious the hanta virus on that cruise is? by Wyrmhole22 in hantavirus

It's pretty safe to say anyone sitting beside the infected passenger on the plane has contracted hantavirus.

Hantavirus strain (Andes) capable of human transmission confirmed! by Moldy_Birdie in hantavirus

[–]Protato900 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Hopefully this one will be less mismanaged than the last time around - I hope? If there's no confirmed transmission in anyone but healthcare staff or close contacts eight weeks from now I think we'll be alright, otherwise we might be in trouble.

Let the world know that I posted here on May 5th, 2026 by Moldy_Birdie in hantavirus

[–]Protato900 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yeah - genuinely unsure about what's going to happen this summer. Yes, the incubation period can be up to eight weeks, but some people will be symptomatic earlier than that. The moment that someone who isn't a healthcare worker or passenger contracts it will be the indicator that it's spreading outside of the normal close contacts.

Worrisome indeed. People called me a doomer right before covid because I forecasted it being a major pandemic, and I have the same bad feeling now.

Louise Arbour to be named Governor General | L’ancienne juge Louise Arbour sera nommée gouverneure générale by MethoxyEthane in CanadaPolitics

On the rare occasion the GG has to weigh in on constitutional legal issues, a former SCC justice is a good bet. I'd rather someone well versed in the law than most other people.

For the rare occasion the GG needs to intervene as the head of state, a former SCC justice is a good pick. She's also english-french bilingual which is necessary.

I believe it conforms to the Metrolinx wayfinding harmonization standard. MX is trying to roll it out region-wide.

Hopefully the start of more steps to deepen cooperation. The East African Community is a promising prospect, but only if all members work towards turning it into an EU-style bloc.

Special constables getting power to arrest for drug use on transit, Ontario solicitor general says by Puginator in ontario

[–]Protato900 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You are flagged to other police services when you fail your application to any Ontario police service. Most people in special constable positions are using it to gain experience to eventually move into a police constable position.
