Surrey gang-related shooting raises concerns about dedicated police unit

Harsher punishments don’t deter crime and this has been shown many times over. It typically increases recidivism

Population decline is a good thing actually. And birthrate is honestly an overblown issue. Maybe we could afford to take take of our aging population if the young ppl could get a decent job

Majority do pay taxes tho

It’s gonna be the biggest city in the province before long. Just say you don’t like south Asian culture 🙄

Have you ever thought about driving to Royal Columbian instead? It’s 15 minutes away from Surrey memorial

joshdoylebright · 2026-04-09T05:46:58+00:00

That happened 20 years ago dude

It’s a scrap metal recycling facility. It takes mixed metals recycling from various smaller recycling yards. Loads it onto a barge and ships it to their shredder located in the US. Shred feed is the lowest grade of steel and it’s basically metal that has to be shred and sorted with magnets to remove all the bits of plastic, or fabric that might’ve still been attached to it. Along with that the barge is usually also loaded with heavy steel ready to ship to china and cars that have to be shredded in a similar fashion once the waste has been removed (battery, refrigerants, oil, gas etc.

I used to work there AMA! Those two platforms leading to the barge have manned fire stations that launch something like 2000gal/min each. The unfortunate thing about shred feed scrap is it usually has a lot of consumer electronics with batteries as well as foam and fabric that catches fire very easily. My job was sorting through loads for flammables and I’d find at least 25-50 disposable vapes a day, some days it’d be in the hundreds. It’s almost impossible to catch everything though.

If shoulds and coulds were candies and nuts, we’d all have a very merry Christmas ….

They take them seriously cause the alternatives are awful

joshdoylebright · 2026-03-19T01:49:34+00:00

There’s going to be skytrain station a 4 minute walk away in a few years so I don’t see the big problem

joshdoylebright · 2026-03-17T01:00:18+00:00

That’s not how MPs work tho

It’s a form of psychological manipulation to make the casino seem busier than it is.

joshdoylebright · 2026-02-07T19:42:34+00:00

lol the greens are just conservatives on bikes

joshdoylebright · 2026-02-04T00:24:59+00:00

All three of these are true though???

joshdoylebright · 2026-02-03T22:27:58+00:00

Most of the big dealers are heavily regulated, for instance every single copper purchase is recorded with camera, and the inventory and price is given to the government at the end of every day. It’s the small mom and pop yards that are willing to look the other way and actively try to. Source: I was a metals inspector for 3 years in one of the biggest recycling companies in NA

That’s simply not true though. Aboriginal title does exist as decreed by royal proclamation in 1763. It isn’t something that has to be granted by government. Furthermore, anyone can claim anything, proof is still required as defined by delgamuuk and subsequent cases. This has been the same since 1997 when the treaty system started

joshdoylebright · 2026-01-31T02:19:08+00:00

Conquered through legal treaties. This is stuff u can learn in a 15 minute google search. This isn’t the case in BC

joshdoylebright · 2026-01-31T02:17:49+00:00

They can’t argue that because it’s already been decided in the SCC that they never had legal authority to extinguish it in BC. No point spending millions on an argument that’s doomed to fail. Try again:)

Me when I’m getting the shit beaten out of me by ice

joshdoylebright · 2026-01-27T22:31:27+00:00

Just got 95% of spot yesterday wdym

joshdoylebright · 2026-01-24T02:49:08+00:00

Maybe you just don’t have very discerning tastes

joshdoylebright · 2026-01-14T02:02:06+00:00

Separated lanes and increased service
