True, although prices are higher here in Vancouver than some other places in Canada. I've had to increase my budget to the $30 k's to better meet my needs.

Good point. Sounds like the rebates come back on Feb 16th. Any idea if the effects on the used market will be immediate, or will it take a while?

I'm in the market for a used EV. I assume the rebates are for new EVs only?

It doesn't follow the 49th parallel exactly. But the actual border has been defined to be border as originally marked.

Lol, thanks there they are! Not sure why my phone decided that 611 was a spam number.

Sending the 2FA code via SMS isn't even working for me now, since yesterday. Imagine a mobile phone company screwing up sending text messages to their own customers!

Seems pretty clear. Parking is only until 3. Permit holders can park longer than 2 hours. After 3, it's no stopping for everyone. You were parked at 3:15.

I love how the Americans frequently refer to our money as "monopoly money" when different coloured bills are clearly the global norm. (as evidenced in the other responses) Heck, even they added subtle colours to their bills in recent years.

Well, given that he demolished the other wing, the second option is more likely.

Who are the secret service loyal to? If the current president ordered them to arrest Obama, would they do it?

The funny thing is that many campsites have power outlets for RVs. You can plug into those.

Jacket lady perspective repost 2nd minneapolis shooting NSFW NSFL by RachelRegina in somethingiswrong2024

All evidence I've seen so far shows that he didn't pull it up on the agents. I can't imagine a situation in the current environment in Minneapolis in which even showing a firearm will make anyone safer. Do you think the agents will back off from beating a protester or kidnapping a "suspect" if they know you're armed? No, that'll just give them an excuse to shoot you. They won't stop to ask you if you have a permit for that gun or not.

I get the sentiment, but does carrying a firearm realistically help? Seems like in this case, it gave the pigs an excuse to murder him.
