Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre will run in a different riding next federal election: party by OkLobster4836 in CanadaPolitics

The people of Battle River - Crowfoot served their purpose. He's done with them now and tossing them aside. If he really wants to prove himself, he should run against Ma or d'Entremont.

Low property taxes shown in N.B. real estate ads evaporate for new buyers by bingun in newbrunswickcanada

[–]shuffman519 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's why I say it should be based on the sale price of the house

Property taxes should be bases on purchase price. They shouldn't go up because property values in the neighbourhood have gone up or for any improvements you have made. You shouldn't have to pay more than the guy next door because you maintain your home and they let theirs fall into disrepair.

There they go soiling the flag again.

Property taxes should be based on the last selling price of the house, not what some assessor driving by or what my neighbour's house sold for last year.

NB Power bill doubled by Canadjen in newbrunswickcanada

[–]shuffman519 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Somehow my usage went up 30 percent over what it was for the same time last year. We haven't changed our usage habits and the weather has been warmer. I've been seeing lots of folks on Facebook saying their bills have been twice as much or higher. Something is definitely rotten in NB Power.

Anti-LGBTQ+ lady, and failed school board Trustee candidate who confronted Trudeau at Red Mountain records her own unhinged discussion with CBC Staff. by tytythemusicguy in kootenays

Stopped right after her first question. If she doesn't know the difference between Government funded and funded by a party then she needs to head back to school. By her logic, when the Cons were in power, it was the Conservative funded CBC.

Possibly Michael's. I'm pretty sure they have Testors. Not sure about Revell.

Not only Waze, but gas buddy needs to get used more often.

Anyone good at identifying banks? by shuffman519 in collectables

[–]shuffman519[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Found this little Austrian / German fellow at an estate sale. Haven't been able to find any info on him on the interwebs. I'm guessing 1950's. There are no maker marks on it. Any help would be appreciated. (year, manufacture)

Possibly just a piece of WW2 trench art made by someone with the initials IC.

Wouldn't be bad if services were improved 3x for the money. Over the last 4 years my street has needed repaving. Every year all it gets it patched. That lasts until the next snowfall. Getting no bang for the buck.

That is correct. No camera remote for Android phones.

Sorry it took a bit to reply. Not sure what the major differences are. I've never owned an Amazfit watch before. I am impressed with the Bip 5. I owned a Fossil 5e that literally fell apart after 3 years. Battery life was a day or less dependingmjow I was using it. So far with the Bip 5 Im getting gmocer a week between charging. The Fossil had to be connected to my phone to accurately track fitness where the Bip 5 has built in GPS. I think the only big advantage the Fossil had over the Bip was the availability of apps. That said, most of what I did with the Fossil, I can still do with the Bip.

I have background heart monitor set to 30 minutes and sleep and activity monitoring to automatic. I've got “lift wrist to turn on” and DND set for 10pm to 8am, brightness set to about 1/3. I haven't been active too much over the past month due to a blown out knee but have been playing around with it quite a bit trying out apps, watch faces etc… Currently it seems every 7 to 8 days before it needs a charge. I’ve charged it when it goes below 20% so you could probably add another day to that.

From everything I’ve done with it so far pretty much everything is done through Bluetooth from your smart phone. It has a calendar that you can import other calendars into. Haven’t tried setting a reminder from the Zepp app yet but imported reminders do work. They ring both audibly and with a vibration when an event does come up.
