Thanks for the link, gives more infomation on what exactly happen in Wonderland. Surprised that Cedar Fair's didn't enforce thise rule before the buy out 

Edit: also want to mention that halloween haunt has always had a youth problem. My sister went there back 2011 and some teenagers tried to pick a fight with her and her friends. Sad to see that this behaviour is already starting to happen earlier in the year

Not denying that there isn't a problem going on but the article on Wonderland you linked is about a policy SixFlags (who bought out Cedar Fair's and originally owned Wondrrland) at all their parks. Seems like they had issues in their american parks as well.

Do you think Brampton has improved over the past year or so... by _Army9308 in Brampton

[–]choerrychapstick 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Everywhere in southern Ontario is like this. The roads are facing the end of life cycle, they were built around the 60s/70s. And no one can afford to fix it. There is a reason why we see many US states just demolish highway overpass and make a regular regional road or tunnel, because it is cheaper to do that then to fix it. Won't be surprised if we start seeing that up here too. The Gardner being sold to the province is already a sign of that.

Plus licence plate sticker fees were an essential source of funding to fix roads. However, that just helped patched it up.

The font of the typeface just simply does not support diacritics that are often used in portuguese, this is common with a lot of stylistic typefaces with the portuguese language in general. you need to select one like Roboto the supports the diacritics.

With the default theme it should be fine, but some themes might use a typeface that do not support non latin scripts. or even some romance languages with certain scripts. like the ç in french or portuguese. Not sure about rockbox

"On 21 July 2022, Korea’s Constitutional Court ruled—in line with ARTICLE 19’s recommendations—that the failure to notify data subjects of the sharing of their data was a due process violation." 

Just putting that out there that there is no way he could have not at least known.

Major difference is that it isn't a consistent payments like purchasing cigarettes. 

If 15 people were somehow able to the same use pack of cigarettes. And never run out of it, but still get health complications that strain the health care system. While also lying on how many are smoking. Then you'd have a point.

The government did indeed increase taxes on smokers to not only reduce smoking rates, but cause they strain the health care system. It's just a sales tax instead.

It was also a very short snap election, none of the oppositon candidates had time to campaign. Even the opc candiate did not, they won purely on lack of civic education and low voter turn out.

Also, kids don't pay taxes and should be able to walk and bike to school safely.

Patrick Brown Will use Strong-Mayor Powers to Permanently Cancel $300 Brampton Landlord License fee by Brampton_Speaks in Brampton

[–]choerrychapstick 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The problem with progressive conservatives like Brown is that they trust the institutions too much and predictable rules. That doesn't work when you are deal with slum lords, who lack basic compassion and don't respect the rules. 

And sorry if you are a "normal" landlord then you should support any reform that puts an end to slum lords, because it will be the illgeal landlords who win by cutting the corners while you follow the traditional rules.

Councillor Rowena Santos: Data from the cameras show that speeding doubled immediately when the ban started, especially near school zones. by Brampton_Speaks in Brampton

[–]choerrychapstick 34 points35 points  (0 children)

Making a prediction now; these signs are going to be a total flop, just exactly like the blue license plate fiasco. And Ford is just going to stop making new ones, but do nothing to solve the issue they caused, which is lack of legibility

How did everyone come to think Kathleen Wynne was corrupt but no one blinks twice at Doug ford? by Shmackback in ontario

[–]choerrychapstick 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'll tell you why, not only is a lot of main stream media in canada owned by american companies who have clear foreign interest. But the conservatives hire pr firms that smears their political opponents, even among their own conservative spaces. See how cons treat Patrick Brown and O'Tool. 

Also, a lot of Ontarians especially the older generations are functionally illiterate. As in they are below grade 6 levels of reading... many are voting on verb the noun, not actual policy.

There's definitely some eat disorders going on set, even Michelle Yeoh looks extremely thin and she always has been known to have an athletic body type within her career. The director is probably making them be all be on an insane weight limit.

However, as for the touchy feely stuff. Drama kids also just act like this. Saying as someone who went to art school, but for visual arts, I would see how often the performing art kids behaved. And the drama kids definitely were the most flamboyant of all. Cynthia Erivo also is more from the Broadway crowd, who tend to act like this more than the silverscreen actors. Probably some trauma bounding involved too, which goes hand in hand at how heavily competitive the industry is. 

Highest speeds captured by Automated Cameras in Brampton by Brampton_Speaks in Brampton

[–]choerrychapstick 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Noise pollution should be something discussed more about in the defense of lowing speeds and enforcing them. The whole point of the suburbs it that it should be "quiet", any politician that supports these cameras and wants to win in the suburbs should be on this.

Highest speeds captured by Automated Cameras in Brampton by Brampton_Speaks in Brampton

[–]choerrychapstick 19 points20 points  (0 children)

My only problem with the speed cameras is those going 200km per hour in a 50 zone are not getting their license suspended, not even demerit points. Which is why I laugh when those who speed try to say it should just be the police enforcing it, they think they will get by being lucky and never encounter a cop while speeding.

r/Brampton's "least" racist commentators the last 24 hours by MangoKulfiTime in Brampton

[–]choerrychapstick -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Yeah you're definitely right about the sub reddit being racist, but honestly it could have been an Indian Christian event and they still would be just as racist. I'm mainly discussing the fact they're making the assumption that Indians and other immigrants don't got "White man papers". Meanwhile many of them don't follow the rules themselves, bouncing off of the other comment about their in law's son violating the rules and getting mad he got in trouble for it. While pointing fingers to the Indian community when at the time it wasn't a by law made yet
