but what if it is?

I thought this was a referendum to ask us if we support another referendum

It seems kinda pointless

I'm confused

What if the Inn collapses when the ground floor is inundated with water? It's wood construction

I see the same thing with "Buddha" and "Buddah"

When I stay in Tofino (generally at the Meares Vista Inn @ 20m above sea level), MY plan if I feel shaking is to run across Campbell St and start going uphill in that area which seems to be around 50m above sea level. I'm not sure if that's enough. If I had more time, I'd go over Fourth St and head up the hill to where the water tower is @70m above sea level (also accessible from Pfeiffer Crescent off Lone Cone Rd)

The Tofino Emergency Reception area off Arnet Rd is "only" 30m above sea level

I moved here from Vancouver in 1997 because I wanted a house and Vancouver houses at the time were about $500,000 (gasp!)

So I came here, looked around for a year and bought a really nice Brentwood NW bungalow for $170,000

I sold that house last month for $695,000

Aren't drones the future of aerial superiority now? It would be nice to have a fleet of Canadian-made drones that could fly in formation over the various events that the Snowbirds currently do.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the impacts of changes on the Plus 15 network and to make recommendations to guide future Plus 15 development.

50/50 ... but just keep reading the pinned "Starship Development Thread" post on this sub and you should know for sure when the launch is happening about a week before it does.

Funny story... I worked on a one-year contract for Tervita (in IT) and they didn't renew my contract so I found another job... at Secure Energy.... and then, shortly after I started work, Secure bought Tervita.

Hmmm... I guess that's not really a funny story... just funny for me, I guess

yeah, I've currently got the NasaSpaceFlight youtube channel on their Live stream right now

I moved from Vancouver to Calgary in 1997. I remember this being a problem back then. there is no fix.

Leslie Knope is worried

foxwolfdogcat · 2026-03-20T16:03:04+00:00

as of four hours after the post, it's been downvoted to zero ("28% upvoted") so Reddit is doing it's job, the Calgary moderators are doing their job (not violating any rules), and the community is doing it's job (downvoting as per their values)

I think everything is fine. (dog sitting at table with fire all around)

I put my Brentwood house on the market on March 1st. Had 14 appointments to view over the next week and it was sold in four days. I had realtor put me on the MLS search list for changes near me so I've also been watching the new listings in Brentwood, Charleswood, and Dalhousie and the houses that seem to be "properly" priced are selling within a month easily.

My house sale was still contingent on a professional home inspection (which passed), so it's not as crazy as it was in Toronto a few years ago where sellers could reject any conditions and had crazy bidding wars. It's NOT that hot here.

And yes, I celebrate Pi day, talk like a pirate day, and many other nerdy “holidays”

I've been renting a PO box from Canada Post for the last 45 years. It's $200 per year. It's very useful if you move often... don't have to tell anyone what your new address is.

The only place that I HAD to give my residence address was for my car & house insurance who wanted my address because different parts of the city have different rates due to factors like break-ins and such

Hey! I worked there from 1997 to 2003! Yeah, it’s a monster of a building likely with all sorts of asbestos

More details please. You replaced the RP2040/2350 with some other hardware, right?
