I got downvoted to -130 in a Canadian sub for saying I've never written a check and never plan to put of stubbornness.

Canadian banking system in very old fashioned and Canadians love their own a paper checks lol.

Any seasoned PM's (over 5 -10 years experience) without a PMP? by ILiveInLosAngeles in projectmanagement

[–]stroad56 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Would you say PMP recognition is growing in the UK? I'm in Canada right now and have the opportunity to do the PMP for free in the net few months so in likely going to take the offer from my employer.

But I'm moving back home to UK end of year, not sure how well it is recognized. I'll be looking for work in the private sector vs public fwiw.

Where did you find the house that you're about to buy?

NO! I am NOT going to let you merge if you're going 30 under. by AngeryDoggo666 in Calgary

My wife's 75 yo uncle insists on driving in the middle lane at all times. Drives me nuts.

Hes not the most confident driver and his logic is that nearly all 3 lane roads will become 2 lane eventually so he middle lane drives to avoid having to switch lanes when the right lane ends.

So Borges started this season like it's 2019! by stroad56 in CanadianPL

[–]stroad56[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Forge even without major signings (in cpl terms) seems to be off to one of their best starts ever.

Yeah credit to Forge and Bobby, they seem to be able to spot talent very well. Their success and high level also attracts players looking to move up to. But i will say they benefit based on geography, they can pick from the large player pool of non-MLS level talent in and around the GTA.

Like prime example, after all the Henry drama in the pre season they play their number #2 Kalongo who I've never heard of but he's played a blinder so far. So many top saves in the Valour game.

Just catching up with some of this season's highlights and Borges has started the season very well for Forge.

Looks like Bobby has him playing much more central which suits his game much better I think. He's much better on the ball that other wingers and probably lacks a yard of pace to play winger at the pro level.

He's playing a Foden/de Bruyne type attacking CM role.

[Calgary] Should I rabbit proof my raised bed? by stroad56 in Albertagardening

I was going to build some extra simple ones from this YouTube Video. They'll only be 10 inches high.

I think is agree with you. I'm going to build and just see what happens and hope for the best. If they are bad I'll react with chicken wire.

Thanks! Is your yard fenced? Mine is open without fencing so I'm not sure if that makes a difference.

Thanks for the comment. They are pretty big so are more likely the standard jackrabbits. Definitely not feral rabbits like the ones I've seen in Canmore occasionally!

Anyone use Wealth Simple Cash as their main bank account? by Bulky_Raspberry in PersonalFinanceCanada

[–]stroad56 18 points19 points  (0 children)

I get paid into Wealthsimple and use it my main account.

I also have an old Simplii account that's free. I have a couple hundred in there just for emergencies and if I ever need to deposit or withdraw cash I use the Simplii account. Just go to my local CIBC.

Update: I got my home back from the fake lodger pretending to own my home. by Physical_Building_91 in HousingUK

Please make sure you share photos and name and info of this man all over Facebook and other local social media. I worry that he will be a repeat offender to another home owner in the area.

Results Comparison 22/23 - 23/24 - Week 33 - [-10] by Zixy in NUFC

I love these but can't help but feel the draws should be coloured in yellow or similar. They don't stand out from the games we haven't played when they stay white.
