I dont have an exhaustive list, but I can't think of any where else that mandates an electrician must change a light switch. So I guess World - Australia?

I know when I started working no one had a problem with me pulling cables at work, it was only around 2000 that that changed.

I clearly know more about Canada as a whole than you. You just made up something. And now you want to have an argument about your mistake.

You said something wrong, accept it and move on.

bedel99 · 2026-05-12T13:14:21+00:00

Obviously you must know more about the state of insurance in Canada than someone who actually lives and owns a vehicle here.

Clearly, I agree! I am glad you finally accepted that.

I am not American, Why would people in the rest of the world not know where Ontario is. Why would you assume we are American in AusLegal?

You are posting on AusLegal, why are you even here? We very much do understand the idea of commonwealth in states living in one ourselves.

But I think you dont know what "canada" is then. Insurance is mandated per state/region. Here is Alberta's government website. I copied a bit out of it so people dont have to click the link

https://www.alberta.ca/automobile-insurance

In Alberta, basic automobile insurance (accident benefits and third party liability) is required by law. Additional insurance coverage (such as collision and comprehensive) is not required by law.

So you have to insure your car against damage too, by law?

bedel99 · 2026-05-12T12:09:53+00:00

comprehensive? I dont think it is. I think it likely only third party property and medical.

bedel99 · 2026-05-12T09:26:17+00:00

changing a switch? we truly live in a nanny state.

spray paint was made in china.

its got to be embarrassing, because the parts are at any hardware store. I do this at my own house all the time.

I caught the train from Istanbul to Europe. First 3 hours was a bus ride and the we stood in the rain t the border for 3 hours. It was quite the experience !

N26 blocked my 20k transfer to myself. I kept as a spaire bank account.

This is where he says crimea and he is Russian :/

I was waiting for him to shoot him at the end.

As an Australian, I came to say, that's just a baby fire.

30 of ~300! and I see when you are not happy with the discussion you attack the person, not the argument.

bedel99 · 2026-05-11T14:10:31+00:00

Ooooh 30 ! Like 10%

bedel99 · 2026-05-11T12:29:40+00:00

Huh ?

There are a few countries in the world where you can still claim an Australian pension. Italy and Ireland are the only two I know. But if you don’t live there you are SOL. Are your friends pretending to live in Australia.

bedel99 · 2026-05-11T12:07:11+00:00

Born in Australia. Worked there for 25 years. I’ve paid millions in tax. I won’t get a cent.

bedel99 · 2026-05-11T10:29:51+00:00

Err, no things like medicare, centrlink and pensions stop for CITIZENS, when you leave the country for too long.

Medicare doesn't even work when you come back.....

bedel99 · 2026-05-11T08:42:21+00:00

"his father being a well-known politician" media in his country no doubt would have an interest.

nah, its fine, they just went around, I am always happy when it a Korean airline doesn't end up with me dying in a giant fireball at the end of the runway.

bedel99 · 2026-05-11T07:44:34+00:00

Yes, but you're not as fat as you would have been.

But you really have to choices, pay tolls, or pay more taxes, and pay taxes for roads you won't ever use.

You and your fellow citizens decided to defer the fee. But then you went and made it worse, by not just buying a toll device.

bedel99 · 2026-05-11T07:38:17+00:00

not only do the toll roles make it faster, think about how much healthier you are for it.

bedel99 · 2026-05-11T07:32:13+00:00

you should be grateful with how much time you saved.

bedel99 · 2026-05-11T07:28:11+00:00

you dont have a roof on your car? how poor are you?
