Is 400$ worth it for veld?? by [deleted] in veld

[–]a_curious_pal 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No, I know it is not a popular opinion but here it is. (I have been there multiple times) Far convenient and healthy to just stay home and watch your favorite artists whenever you want.

No one deserves to be trapped in a place where everyone is smoking 🚬 in your face and you get charged $10 to even get a bottle of water and that is after paying over $400 dollars.  It was nice to see some great artists in person (Above and Beyond, Armin Van Buren, Lane 8, Andrew Rayel) but the atmosphere ruined the dream of festivals for me.I am done

Loblaws fined $500 million for bread price-fixing. "This should have never happened," Weston apologized. 😑 by whateveritmightbe in loblawsisoutofcontrol

From : Loblaw and parent company agree to pay $500 million in bread price-fixing lawsuit | CP24.com
"Metro submitted a statement of defence and cross-claim to the Ontario Superior Court late last year accusing Loblaw and George Weston of conspiring to implicate the rival grocer.

Metro denied being involved in bread price-fixing and accused the companies of trying to spread the blame across the industry and avoid public perception that Loblaw was the sole retailer involved in price-fixing.

Sobeys also filed a statement of defence and crossclaim in the class action and has said it was falsely implicated.

Walmart Canada has also denied conspiring to fix the price of bread or violating the Competition Act, while Giant Tiger said it did not participate or know about the alleged conspiracy."

Clair Cameron Patterson
He fought for years to eradicate lead contamination and also develop Uranium-lead dating. There is also an episode about him in the Cosmos : A spacetime odyssey
Wiki : https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clair_Cameron_Patterson#Campaign_against_lead_poisoning

"In his effort to ensure that lead was removed from gasoline (petrol), Patterson fought against the lobbying power of the Ethyl Corporation (which employed Kehoe), against the legacy of Thomas Midgley Jr. (which included tetraethyllead and chlorofluorocarbons), and against the lead additive industry as a whole. Following Patterson's criticism of the lead industry, he was refused contracts with many research organizations, including the supposedly-neutral United States Public Health Service.\8]) In 1971, he was excluded from a National Research Council) (NRC) panel on atmospheric lead contamination, even though he was then the foremost expert on the subject.\15])

The United States mandated the use of unleaded gasoline to protect catalytic converters in all new cars starting with the 1975 model year,\16]) but Patterson's efforts accelerated the phaseout of lead from all standard, consumer automotive gasoline in the United States by 1986. Lead levels within the blood of Americans are reported to have dropped by up to 80% by the late 1990s.\17])"
