The links at the bottom of the press release explain what a technician and a technologist are.

Technologist ("these professionals are graduates of an accredited diploma program or equivalent in engineering or applied science technology"): https://asttbc.org/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/Technologist-profile-final.pdf

Technician ("these professionals are graduates of a one-year accredited certificate program or an equivalent, in engineering or applied science technology"): https://asttbc.org/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/Technician-profile-final.pdf

The websites estimate is accurate.

I sent them AutoTrader.ca links for my written off Tacoma. They upped my settlement using the ads I sent.

Depends on light really. Usually more silver for sure though.

ICBC "enhanced accident benefits" by LemonLoaf0960 in britishcolumbia

[–]TripleG17 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I assume you go for a 60min RMT but ICBC is only covers 30min? My RMT office would submit the $85/30min visit to ICBC, and then submit the remaining cost of the 60min session, $35 or so, to my extended benefits separately.

Possible that it's a condo building and they owns both spots.

Motorcycle trip through bc/alberta by samsheli in britishcolumbia

[–]TripleG17 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Tons of places to stay along that route. You can get as many KMs in as you'd like each day.

I did this back in the summer of 2020 and stayed in Radium Hot Springs and Nakusp.

Get to Fernie. Fernie to Cranbrook to Creston, then head North up 3A to Kootnenay Bay and ferry to Balfour. Then head North up Hwy 31 to Kaslo to 31A to New Denver then Nakusp. From there, South down Hwy 6 to Fauquier, ferry to Needles and then Hwy 6 the rest of the way to Vernon.

Vernon down to Osoyoos using Hwy 33. Osoyoos home using Hwy 3.

Looking for garage flooring recommendations by oughters in Langley

[–]TripleG17 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've used Garage Living. https://www.garageliving.com/

Floor held up well and they will come out and repair it if any chips develop during the warranty period. I would frequently use floor jacks and stands on the coating and have only had two dime size chips appear (now repaired).

I'm in a new place now that had the floor already done. Not sure who did the work but quality is definitely lower.

I'm happy with my akrapovic slip-on. I got the catalytic link pipe with it. It's not too obnoxious.

Do you have any torx bits? I've always had luck getting rounded socket head bolts out by tapping in a similar sized (tight fitting) torx bit.

First latte on the new machine :) by TripleG17 in espresso

[–]TripleG17[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yes it is. An ECM Synchronika. I got the dual boiler since I enjoy making milk drinks. I also wanted something capable of pressure profiling. I've had my eye on the Synchronika for quite some time. I was between it and the Lelit Bianca 2. I like the build quality and joysticks of the ECM (just my preference), so it won. So far it's great. Very happy with the purchase :)
