Hmm, <checks map> I know where those two streets are in Orangeville. At least they both have a school on them, which is probably where they'll put the camera. The main traffic using those streets, will be local residents going to and from home, and local residents driving their kids to and from...

There's an increasing number of drivers in Brampton who are dealing with this by driving 40 km/h everywhere on main roads and 30 km/h everywhere on residential streets. I know "frustration" never wins relative to "think of the children" but ... this is frustrating. And I'm the bad guy for...

Wow. My condolences. Thanks for sharing photos. I see several familiar faces there.

I suspect that if municipalities used a small number of speed cameras in actual problem areas with lots of speed-related crashes and pedestrian hits, and set reasonable enforcement thresholds to only get blatant violators, we wouldn't be having this discussion. But, they got greedy, and here we are.

They're pervasive. Politicians find the revenue generated by arbitrarily low speed limits combined with speed cameras to be irresistible, all justified by "think of the children". And people are all for having speed cameras on their own street while complaining about the ticket they got on...

Shhh, let them think they're doing something.

I hope the local residents around Forks of the Credit enjoy their new 40 speed limit for the whole length of the "good" part, especially when that camera goes up.

Not many; the dragstrip wasn't my vibe.

It's clearing up, sun is out! I'm planning to ride this evening. Meet up 6:00 departure 6:30.

It may stop raining in time, but I can't see it drying out in time. Making other plans.

For people that are well positioned for retirement, I am convinced that the best strategy is a mixture of several strategies. The way I'm looking at it, the TFSA is the new-vehicles fund (I will not be buying a Lamborghini any time soon), and although the monthly income from RRIF and CPP is...

Gentle reminder that there are lots of different scenarios that will apply to different people. If you foresee a low-income retirement, then "any" savings is better than "no" savings, and having something stashed away in a place that's harder to get to (RRSP) reduces the temptation to spend it...

I stopped contributing to an RRSP some years ago, when it started becoming apparent that the future RRIF income was probably not going to be tax advantageous compared to dividend income offset by the dividend tax credit from investments outside the RRSP and over and above TFSA.

Yes, looks like it will be splendid weather.

No particular reason for this post. Completely unrelated whatsoever. Just saying. Select: 1) Kid in mom's basement 2) Street squid 3) AI troll 4) ?? 5) Prove me wrong.

Means the engine has had stuff done. Steering wheel on the right, or on the left?

The tipoff for whether it's actually a Holden (difficult import) or a Pontiac G8 with badges swapped (easy) is which side of the car the steering wheel is on...

This was Josh from Peak Powersports. RIP.

And again! I think we'll stay with standard meet 6:30 departure 7:00 for today.
