    Blocked IPs?

    No VPN. Doesn’t matter if it’s WiFi or phone data. Mobile site or not.

    Blocked IPs?

    Start.ca for me but this happens if I’m using phone data too! Using an iPad Pro and it’s slow whether it’s chrome or safari. Slow on tapatalk on android via web or data. It’s attached to my username whatever the issue is as when I logged out and accessed as a non-logged in viewer it was fast...

    Blocked IPs?

    So. Log out and access the site as a viewer and the site is smooth and fast. Log in with username and it’s slow as molasses and hangs frequently. Something is nerfing my access.

    Blocked IPs?

    Still super slow. Marginally faster on cellphone but most times the site doesn’t load the page properly at all. For maybe a week it was slightly faster but that’s it.

    I have the same issue.

    Hoping the sky is clear at sunset tomorrow

    I do not want to see Uranus. Seriously though, I’m going to be quite a bit older the next time this happens.

    Who's gonna tell him?

    Long overdue. Just need to make sure it’s affordable. Doesn’t matter who starts it as long as it’s implemented.

    No Cheque

    Got mine and used part of it to go to an OHL game against a US team. Didn’t need to boo, the choir singing the US anthem did an excellent job murdering it and I’m reasonably sure they did it on purpose as the Canadian one went just fine!

    DC plane crash

    That’s most probably true however what this has shown us is Jabba the Gut’s character on full display and a nice insight into the fact that Trump’s undoing will be done by Trump himself. He cannot help himself when it comes to whiny incoherent statements but this one is at a time when people...

    We Know you Ride, But do you Shoot?

    I used to shoot at a fancy mixed private/public range made out of armoured shipping containers with a state of the art air handling system. It still got a bit ripe in there as there’s just a lot of gases to get rid of. Moreso since the private side trained bodyguards and had full auto licenses...

    Amazon ceasing operations in Quebec

    With us the seemingly silly rules like that are part of compliance with insurance rules. Same with compulsory training/courses which are mandated by the organization rather than the union. Perhaps I just have a good union. I’m perfectly fine admitting that they are not necessarily all like...

    Unions can mean the difference between potentially not having to uproot a family, move kids out of school, sell a home, pack up all your belongings and run away-and the opposite.

    Amazon ceasing operations in Quebec

    That’s not my experience. My union has made working conditions better. Without it it would probably be a mess. Absolutely no one is in this union to get rich, mostly as all the positions are voluntary. The “pay” is a slightly reduced workload for some as union duties are counted towards...

    If one union is a bad player does it mean all unions are? Corporations would love you to believe that. On the other hand, not all corporations are bad but there’s enough evidence to suggest that unions are necessary in some because of the way they treat their workers. Say, like Amazon.

    Amazon ceasing operations in Quebec

    My union fees compared to my salary are minimal. Taken at source so I don’t feel it. Think of it as insurance, you pay it in case you need it but you hope not to use it. I’ve seen the benefits and for me it’s not just worth it but in this particular environment it’s necessary. There’s...
