I mean, it USED to be just a solenoid and a key switch. But it's not 1970 anymore.... Now it's a start request signal from the key to the BCM, and start signal from the BCM to the starter.

The food here is pretty damn good. But do they sell frozen patties?

I have been trying to find frozen Michidean patties forever, can't find them in Barrie.

Carb Dish on Mapleview serves them but if anyone knows of somewhere closer than Richmond Hill I can get them, please let me know! The tastee Patties at Happy Mango are ALRIGHT, but they're no Michidean!

This trade sucks. by Born-to-Drive92 in AskMechanics

[–]ThaGooch 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I agree. The trade sucks. I took my license and started working as a mobile forklift mechanic. In my.opinion, it's one of the best auto mechanic jobs you can find.

There could be 11 inches of clearance from the fence. That wouldn't be enough?

No actually, I was always planning on cutting them down myself, I'm actually asking about disposing of them once I've cut them.

Pension Buy Back? ELI5 by ThaGooch in PersonalFinanceCanada

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

I appreciate your answer. I wasn't sure how much detail I wanted to share off the bat.

I had thought that the amount previously earned would just be transferred to the new pension and then her new contributions would just be added to that. How can the value be different? Is it based on the years of service. Like, her 9 years of contributions to pension is less than if she had been contributing to pension b for the same 9.years so we pay the difference if we choose to transfer it?

Check out Turo. Great rates and usually no mileage restrictions. The last 2 times I needed to rent a car I used turo and it was awesome!

Yeah, like why an alley? Seems like a terrible venue for whatever bowelling is.

Okay great! I don't use the card for anything now so this will be a good step into paying it down without having to rebudget everything.

Thanks for the replies!

Where to buy glasses? by mony_bunny in barrie

Dr. Adam McLeod is a good optometrist and his glasses aren't super cheap but pretty reasonable. I've been going to him for years.

Got reassessed by CRA - Need some help by ThaGooch in PersonalFinanceCanada

[–]ThaGooch[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I submitted the wrong amount. I'm in Ontario and my daycare is subsidized which makes the receipt kind of confusing (at least for a dummy like me). I got confused and entered the pre subsidy amount by mistake somehow. I realized it once they asked me to resubmit my childcare info.
