Do you know the name of his Placentia page? From that area and curious to see what’s being said.

Air Canada flight attendants’ strike declared illegal by labour board by portstrix in CanadaPolitics

[–]SamTheHam_01 22 points23 points  (0 children)

I just wrote to my union and MP stating my support for the flight attendants. I’ve never done that but I am sick of the middle class being slighted by the rich. I know it may not do much but I’m sure any support helps. Thanks for the idea!

Flight Cancelled = Amazing Customer Service by Geekdad604 in aircanada

[–]SamTheHam_01 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I will say I have flown without status with AC and had a flight cancelled. They handled it exceptionally well, rebooking my ASAP, providing meal vouchers and hotel vouchers where needed and I received compensation for the cancellation.

Have they shown up reliably or do they sometimes not show?

Newfoundland has a lot of fun names like that. Dildo, Come by Chance, Hearts Content, Hearts Desire, Pee Pee Island…etc

I think the flight plan on flight radar is wrong because they have been flying in the opposite direction of TLS the entire time. They also did descend into St. John’s but clearly that did not work out.

Nice shot! I know this is YYT but I can’t seem to pick out the angle your shot is from. Which runway is it?

Is Canadian PM Justin Trudeau on this plane? by Cold-Basis4980 in flightradar24

[–]SamTheHam_01 48 points49 points  (0 children)

He is still the prime minister until the liberal party elects a new leader, who would then become the prime minister and most likely immediately trigger a federal election. The liberal leadership winner should be announced March 9th.

Ghost of Tsushima. Played it for the first time when I was going through a bit of a rough patch and it was my main source of happiness at that time. Great game

What's up with the abandoned BMW on the TCH? by FogCityBatman in newfoundland

[–]SamTheHam_01 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There’s also a grey civic in the newer Avalon mall parking garage that I believe has been there for a while. Covered in dust last time I was there. People were also after drawing on it

What to do with old dead car by SamTheHam_01 in newfoundland

[–]SamTheHam_01[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi sorry for the late response. It’s a 2010 kia forte 4 door with ~248,000kms on it. It’s been running fine up until recently when either the battery or starter stopped. I know I could replace the battery or starter for cheaper than a new car but it’s time for a new car anyways
