    Architects prove that 9/11 was faked

    Since Elvis was appointed president of the Anonymous Conspiracy Society there was a change in policy and old theories are revived. I heard they want to bring the Russians on board to get more traction on the Moon landing conspiracy.

    any good cashback card recommendation?

    It depends on the actual utility company if they accept automated CC payments. Some do and some don't. Two years ago I was shopping for "the best" cashback card. Originally I was put off by the upfront card fees for some cards, but then I realized that the card fee is just a factor I the...

    Another 407 rant

    I avoid the 407 because I really dislike their racketeering style, but last month had to swallow the bullet and rushed to a meeting on the toll road. Sure enough the parasites from 407ETR took the opportunity and charged me about the same amount I paid a month later on I90 for 400+ kilometers...

    Appraisal Requirement

    Did that change in the last 10 years? In 2005 I bought a 1980 Yamaha Maxim and could not register it with MTO (tried two different offices) until I had it appraised. I ended up getting an "appraisal" from my mechanic who certified the bike which was accepted at MTO. Newer bikes, different...

    Recommendations for GPS units and mounting options

    I am using my Samsung S4 with Tom-Tom with a RAM mount. Sometimes when navigating to a POI in a new city and have 4G coverage I am using Google Navigation as it is easier to find the point using Google maps. It is the first time I am using this setup on a trip (I am in Utah, on my way back from...

    Quebec Trial - Car Stops to help ducks, Motorcycle hits car (fatality)

    According to this article, http://globalnews.ca/news/1386181/i-know-it-was-a-mistake-driver-in-duck-linked-highway-crash-testifies/ the speed limit in that area is 100km/h, therefore 115-120km/h is not something unreasonable.

    What is the benefit of hiring an agent for a speeding ticket?

    I was reading on Canlii about recent cases involving speeding infractions and I couldn't help but notice that in all cases that I've read so far the defendants were represented by at least an agent and in all cases they lost. There were lots of good questions being asked and gotcha moments but...

    Advice: Driving part way and then riding - what to do with vehicle?

    I've trailered my bike in the past to Florida, Colorado and Wyoming, each time I left the car/trailer at a local storage facility. The small price I was paying (usually $30-$50) was well worth the piece of mind to know that my car and trailer were relatively safe.

    Motorcycle Trailer Build- Need Advice and Parts

    If the trailer would be readily available In Canada I would agree with your statement, however, as others have stated, bringing the trailer from Buffalo is dead easy. You buy the parts from HF, keep the invoice and at the border, the guard will ask you about any purchases. You will say that you...

    Construction flagman authority

    Though there was no ugly incident that triggered my question, while commuting to downdown Toronto I've came across several flagmen who where either disrespectful or ignorant about traffic pattern and/or traffic light status, creating sometimes dangerous situations. I am not saying that all the...

    Construction flagman authority

    I was wondering under what authority are the construction flagmen directing the traffic? I am not talking about the road maintenance projects, but rather about the private construction projects adjacent to a road (think downtown condos), when the guy with the stop sign decides to stop the...
