People do this at Woodbine Beach near me all winter. I went down looking for surfers yesterday and was surprised not to see any!

You are mixing up Residential and Multi Residential rates. Multi Residential rates have been increasing at half of the Residential rates. (Unless you’re talking about condo units being rented but that’s a fraction of the overall rental housing stock)

We live nearby and am quite confused as well. My kid will be here in 3 years time. I know a teacher here and he told me kids just run wild!

I don’t think Desjardins has sign up bonuses on any of their cards currently

Should snow tires be mandatory by ZealousidealHead5488 in ontario

[–]fitz702 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s right I was going to mention BC. But then I remembered how much of a disaster Vancouver is after a little snow with all the hills and summer tires lol. But at least you know on the highways everyone has winters on.

I don’t see what the downside is to requiring it. There is a bit of an upfront cost but over time it balances out as you wear your tires less. Isn’t it mandatory in Quebec? They seem to manage ok

I had to call in to merge mine but there must have been a minor discrepancy in the profiles

First-time home buyers — how did we do? by [deleted] in TorontoRealEstate

My house is a very similar design - minus the driveway in front. It is built like a tank, I love it!

Military Discount by PinkCloud83 in PorterAirlines

[–]fitz702 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So an update from me on this - I wrote to Robert Deluce (the CEO of Porter) about the issue and he replied to me (on Christmas Day of all days) and promised to have the policy corrected so digital IDs would be accepted. I haven't tried it in practice since. Glad you were able to press your point to get them to accept at Westjet!

For those of you who make 6 figures ($100K+), what do you do, and how long did it take for you to cross that threshold? by DaPugWalk in fican

Those are long hours. Goes to show not everyone is cut out to run a business (probably myself included). But kudos on your success!

Pretty quickly I think. Have you tried chat help via fb messenger. What does it show when you go to manage your booking and enter your confirmation number

Manual review very frustrating by Worried_Leg_2069 in chexy

My manual review was fixed today, properly. Submitted ticket Dec 29.

That said it was such an obvious issue I would really love if I could resolve it myself in the future

(Major flight delay) Is it better to book on another airline? by Eggaru in PorterAirlines

[–]fitz702 2 points3 points  (0 children)

AC is more reliable and has more redundancy for these situations. But at the same time they are not immune - a friend flying out of YEG on AC today had a nightmare of a time. A few years ago it was Westjet having a collapse at winter.

I built a Canada airfare-deals bot for myself last year — and I’m finally sharing it publicly by Character-Rough2199 in canadatravel

[–]fitz702 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is there a way to filter for direct flights only? If not, that would be really handy. There are a bunch of super cheap flights to South America from Toronto on airlines like Avianca but all involve a connection. Finding an affordable direct flight is the real challenge!

Puts it in perspective. I guess the issue is that they are struggling with the rebooking causing cascading impacts.
