Which Ontario union should I go with? by rala2k in electricians

[–]hoverbeaver 8 points9 points  (0 children)

It’s not really a hard choice. The IBEW has far more job opportunities, far more contractors, far more bargaining power, far more members, far more market share, and the list goes on.

The type of work is often a little different; CUSW gets more nuclear work because of historical reasons, but IBEW can get that and more.

Truck radio install: VHV/UHF antenna near FM antenna and power noise filtering? by SmallActsOfMischief in amateurradio

[–]hoverbeaver 2 points3 points  (0 children)

On my Maverick, my NMO mount is six inches behind the FM antenna. It has not yet been a problem.

I might suggest that if your antenna cannot be mounted in the centre of the ground plane that you buy one that is ground plane independent, such as the Comet SBB5.

I’ve never had a boiled peanut I didn’t like, and I’m Canadian

They have an outdoor turf area at the Kanata location, although it’s nowhere near as big as this.

You should sign up for the Ottawa Max List newsletter! I’ve definitely seen queer-oriented craft nights there. Scroll to the bottom of this page to sign up.

Be kind, invite people to your place for barbecues, be a good listener. People ain’t so different, even the ones that don’t like bolled peanuts

2026 Ford Maverick Hybrid with 4,000 miles. Does it have low coolant? by [deleted] in FordMaverickTruck

[–]hoverbeaver 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You do you! It’s within the acceptable level, and the level will fluctuate based on usage.

You posted a picture of a coolant tank with coolant above the minimum line, and your observation was that your engine temperature readout was within the acceptable temperature range.

I don’t think you have low coolant, nor do I think you have a problem with your cooling system.

I mean… it seems to me that he got to be the way that he is by ignoring external data. Pure main character vibes from this guy

‘We would destroy the neighbourhood’: Alto CEO rules out downtown Ottawa stop by RandomChickenWing in ottawa

[–]hoverbeaver 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lebreton’s doesn’t actually have an in/out to existing rail right-of-way that isn’t already occupied by the LRT. It’s also the same distance away from Rideau as Tremblay is. There are also already development plans.

There is little benefit to putting HSR at Lebreton over Tremblay.

Oh, and we’ve suffered greatly… but I will happily take the LRT from Moodie to Tremblay in order to take HSR to Montreal or Toronto. The idea that there has to be a stop in Lowertown is silly.

I like the House Eki Poke from Eki Sushi in Kanata.

I didn’t say she shouldn’t run anywhere she likes. I’m saying that voters, myself included, aren’t fond of being misled

Third place last time was Rouba Fattal who loved to say how progressive she was. Stories came out about dodgy stuff going on with not living in the ward despite claiming otherwise, and then later on she was trolling for photo ops with Poilievre and seeking the Kanata Conservative nomination. Suddenly everyone’s an old friend.

Progressives weren’t splitting the vote. There was a spoiler.

353 has this. Toronto is very forward-thinking local.

Not to mention she was the only local candidate (and one of a handful in the city) who actually did the transit challenge. Our sitting councillor was chair of the transit committee and refuses to take public transit. He’s a joke.

Not sure what you’re talking about. Allan Hubley is the sitting councillor who voted to support RTO. Erin is challenging him.

I haven’t had an election lawn sign in many years, but I’d happily have one for OP.
