    GSXR 750 concept....thoughts? I love it!

    Looks amazing imo. Especially the front. Is this something Suzuki is actually considering?

    How crucial is education in the real world?

    Depends on what you want to do. Not saying that a degree will make you the man that everyone wants to hire, but in my experience, your options are incredibly limited without one. I can only speak for finance and some government areas, but nobody will consider you for pretty much ANY position...

    Offering advice to new riders

    1. If it was safety related, like if you noticed they had a flat, or something was off on the bike, then yeah say something. Telling someone to wear more or different gear though is not really what i'd consider "advice". I'm sure they're aware protection exists and they chose not to use it, it's...

    A comfortable SS?

    GSXRs are typically called the most comfortable supersport bike. That said, I find opinions really vary on what people find comfy. I tend to prefer perched bikes like the R6 and Daytona whereas others like the feeling of sitting « in » the bike that you get from GSXRs. If I were you I would hit...

    Danforth shooting

    I did, I’m just not interested in her or her « reporting ». I think she’s a clown and her reporting is a lot of directed story telling designed to push a narrative that I don’t think is realistic or productive. it’s hard for me to understand why you see her as more credible than other reporters...

    Danforth shooting

    Well, pontificating against someone that asked a polite question during what seemed to be a question period aside, the speaker actually acknowledged that the majority are peaceful people. The lady's statement on relevance is ignorant and only works in a vacuum where only one person has a mic and...

    Danforth shooting

    I think you and Riceburner are agreeing FYI (and for the record, I agree with riceburner as well). I think the reason people were reacting to calling the shooter a Muslim/terrorist before it was confirmed is that there is no proof at that time, it does no one any good to speculate, and it just...

    Audi no longer offering manual transmission cars in Canada

    Loved driving manual when I was younger and I still do; the feeling is hard to match. Dual clutch automatics though are the way of the future. After driving an Evo X and a Golf R with those, there's no doubt in my mind that they're the way forward... they vastly outperform. Not surprised to see...

    Danforth shooting

    You're missing the point too. The NY argument is a totally disingenuous argument that can't possibly the taken seriously; you have to willingly ignore the massive problem with it. It doesn't matter if you legally can't have guns in New York if, for example, they're legal in New Jersey and the...

    Danforth shooting

    There's no need to be so condescending; not everyone believes the same stuff you do. I don't mean this as an insult, but your post above isn't really indicative of a critical thinker. You see how when you click how on any of your links there for "truths" you get some "NAME: <headline>" setup...

    Danforth shooting

    I doubt you’d catch a public nuisance charge, especially if you’re doing everything legally and you’re not messing with people. Neighbors might react and cops may ask questions because it’s pretty unusual to have a weapon out in the open. Reaction to the rifle would probably be pretty different...

    Danforth shooting

    Yeah, I think Canada's gun control laws are appropriate tbh. It just becomes challenging when neighbours to the south with whom you share an enormous unprotected border have very little in the way of gun control. It just makes it easier to get a weapon in Canada. To be honest, I always felt...

    Lane filtering might become legal....

    Can echo that; I was doing it on the Gardiner because I forgot it was Indy weekend. Only got one complaint from a guy who I think was either a bit spooked or just unhappy that I was getting through and he was standing still.

    Woooo PC majority

    I was asking you because you appeared to be suggesting that it wasn’t the case that the PCs had the largest projected deficit. Fair enough. Regardless of my wording, i felt the meaning was clear, but for you i’ll clarify that what i meant is “the economists that have opined on the matter have...

    Woooo PC majority

    It’s a pretty small industry. In any case, I’d say it’s fairly common knowledge by now that he had an expensive agenda and as of yet no plan to fund it. I haven’t seen or read about any reputable papers or institute suggesting otherwise. Have you?

    Woooo PC majority

    I can basically name anyone that's not Rob. Tory's the obvious comparison. One of my minimum requirements is that the Mayor shows up to work, is not cracked out, and can manage to avoid turning the city's bureaucracy into a global level embarrassment every other week. A feminist tantrum, however...

    Woooo PC majority

    Sure, but how do you reconcile that with support for Ford, who is projected by every economist in the province to have the largest deficit? It seems to me that without giving up on some of his more populist promises, he can't possibly make good on the fiscal responsibility.

    Woooo PC majority

    When I read stuff like this about RoFo I can't help thinking we live in totally different dimensions and we have totally different expectations from the people around us.

    Woooo PC majority

    Hopefully. But I think it bears remembering that Hydro is the effect of years of neglect and switching away from coal; this is something that the Liberals ran on and had a mandate to do. They got rid of coal, invested in clean energy, and instated carbon taxes. This cleaned up air and made for...

    Woooo PC majority

    Yeah I agree, though to be honest I want DF to succeed. He seems to be a people's champ so any ousting, even if justified, will be seen as Machiavellian. I'd rather that he keeps his head down, pays attention, and is a big enough man to know when he's not the smartest in the room.
