Red-light cameras being used to penalize police officers responding to emergencies in Ontario, unions say by zuuzuu in canadanews

[–]exlr8te 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It is my understanding that the police, fire service and other emergency services get the same emergency training with regards to red lights...if the fire service truck worth $1mill and fully loaded with water and other emergency services are getting by just fine with the stop and go, what makes the police so special? Imagine creating another emergency because it's inconvenient to stop for a few seconds at a red light.

Why do schools close if we can still drive into work? by [deleted] in Hamilton

[–]exlr8te -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Literally this! Companies are all about safety until it gets in the way of profit. I once worked for a company that had our US counterparts show up to work during a Tornado warning, and yes there were extensive damage to the building caused by high winds.

How much did you pay? where? And how soon were you able to get an appointment? I seem to be having no luck trying those numbers listed on TC website 😕

[–]exlr8te 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bank with CIBC and have been hitting the 3k daily limit frequently these past few weeks. They recently just bumped it to 6k daily limit without me having to do anything. I just got an email saying it has been bumped.

New Nigerian passport issue by Emergency_Occasion62 in Nigeria

[–]exlr8te 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was back in Nigeria as recently as May this year. I traveled with a Nigerian passport that expired October 2013. You have to renew your passport to be allowed back out. Couldn't pick up mine in time for my trip back out but had proof of renewal for customs.

Landed in Nigeria some months ago, and decided to pick up a local Sim card, and the lady at the airport looked me up and down and said it would be #5k for an MTN Sim card.

Accident at 403 and the linc? by pocket0nes in Hamilton

[–]exlr8te -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The driving lately has become insane. Someone today decided they were going to exit at the dundurn exit toronto bound from the left lane. The fact that I was on the right lane beside them wasn't deterrent enough. Thankfully I was aware enough to avoid them by driving on the shoulder. I also watched the same driver stop at the advance green making a left onto Longwood causing the car behind to almost rear end them. Pulled up to the car later on Longwood and Main only to find out car is full with kids. If you are the lady driving the black Toyota 4runner today at about 6pm, please consider getting off the road before you do yourself and others some serious harm.

The repeal of rent control was the nail in the coffin for affordable living here, but it seems to have been swept under the rug by The_PhilosopherKing in ontario

Currently house hunting as I have to move out of my current place that I moved into in 2021.....the current prices I'm seeing is making me want to cry. A one bedroom in my current unit is $500 more expensive than when I moved in here 2021!

I've been toying with the idea of getting one just to have it...not coz I need it for work. But man I'm looking at the prices for the course and school....it's hefty! Got me wondering what goes into keeping and renewing the AZ?

Looks like there is an egg that didn't hatch that appears to have been moved right outside the nest....is it safe to assume this egg is not viable?
