Here's one for the conservatives. Starting your own software company or charity foundation is easier if you have contacts in the government. Cool? High 5s all around. Sent from my Pixel 5 using Tapatalk

Many are lucky to be born in a position of privilege that gives them a head start. You have a very narrow view if you think exploration can be refuted by your workplace experience. For example, starting your own company in construction can be considerably easier if your family has...

Riiiight.... success often means the right and PRIVILEGE to exploit those that work their ass off chasing the dangling carrot. Sent from my Pixel 5 using Tapatalk

Next they will send everyone $200 to mitigate the failing health care system.

It seems that after the announcement of high inflation, prices go up considerably as it provides an excuse to boost profits.

Of course, but this is devious reporting that serves no other purpose than attempting to panic people. Sent from my Pixel 5 using Tapatalk

This story does not add up. Starkman owns her house for 24 years, but mortgage jumps up by $1000 at renewal? https://www.thestar.com/news/gta/2022/10/09/hoping-for-a-crash-or-praying-for-a-boom-the-housing-debate-thats-dividing-toronto.html Or the non paywall...

Is it possible to protect laminate flooring from water damage that it can be installed in a kitchenette? I also have access to fairly cheap epoxy resin, but I am not sure how it would apply and look on top of flooring. One thing is sure though, epoxy is waterproof.

If some want to try repairing their appliances I found reliableparts.ca for parts. They have schematics for most models with all the parts codes. They wanted $120ish for the dryer compressor capacitor. Local electronics shop had a compatible cap for $15. Does anyone know better suppliers? Kinda...

It's heavy, noisy, and I never have enough cfm. Wallnut blasting my intake valves was quite frustrating. Electric impact guns are pretty much on part for auto work. Only reason I keep it around is to clean laptops. I guess for cabinet painting my makita MAC2400 with 4.8 CFM @ 40 PSI should do.

I need to figure out the best option to restore some cabinets and paint them. I have a big compressor but I seriously hate dealing with it. How are the electric HVLP sprayers like the Wagner Flexio 3000? Can I expect reasonable results with it? Reasonable is the keyword, as they are not for the...

$500 HO helped me knock $5000 off my final price. I was seriously impressed with the thoroughness of the inspector. He picked up a small leak from the washer, and took pictures of a faint scale line to show it was a recurring issue.

Another thing, Yakima round bars are my favorite bars. They have multiple widths available to allow for a top box and two bikes on the roof. Closet rods are a cheap and compatible option. The new aero curved bars can put quite a lot of lateral flex on the bars. For example, Tesla OEM bars don't...

A friend of a friend drives sprinted with his old thule at 140-150 on twisty mountain roads. Big fat skis help support all the luggage on top of them. It is considerably more fuel efficient than open ski racks or baskets with random luggage strapped to them. It can also haul a surprising amount...

Another q. What is a good bank to open a common bank account? I have Simplii and partner has TD.

I think I misused the term suite. Let's call it an extra room + bathroom with a kitchenette. The extra space is not even on the title. The listing agent listed the house including the built basement at ~1700 sqft vs the title ~1200. I suppose they just took the owner word for it? That is quite...

I found a townhouse I like, but it has an illegal suite built on the first floor. Squamish having a serious rental problem, is overlooking such suites. Lots of people rent similar units. My issue is with the fact that the townhouse is listed including the extra sqft, suite and bathroom. The...

Too bad they can only be green plated.

Ford wants to one up the sale of 407 and Hydro One. Ontario, a place to grow.

I am sure there are exceptions, but most family doctor visits can be done by phone. Most initial visits are concluded by recommending RICE, a prescription, or a referral. Nurse practitioners can provide similar primary care at a cost-effective rate and free family doctors to provide specialised...
