Look at the wages on the table CN is offering. They get paid a hell of a lot better than most people in Canada, yet they are holding all other industries in this country hostage.

And that doesn't include lost tourist revenues, for this year and at least a couple more to come before the town is rebuilt. Not to mention losses for the next 25 years because no one wants to come and see a burnt out wasteland.
Insurance rates are going to see a jump again for next year...
To be honest I enjoyed not having a vehicle when we were in Europe last summer, granted public transit there is way better, but it was nice just having a bag full of belongings and a small backpack for day outings. Not having to worry about parking or any of the other stuff that goes along with...
Unfortunately the town never will be the same. Nor will many of the attractions. Mt Edith Cavell was by far my favorite spot in that area, came across these pictures yesterday, heartbreaking to say the least. Hopefully the Alpine was spared, but not holding my breath.
The other issue is it sounds like all the version 0.5, 1.0, and 1.5 satellites don't have Starlink to Cell capability. It's only the V2 minis that do, which at this point in time is less than 1/3 of the constellation. And given that the Falcon 9 rocket can only launch 24 of the V2 Minis at a...
I get that, but with the age of the internet and YouTube access to repair information is easier than ever. Short of the expense of owning a scan tool to diagnose engine lights and DTC's.
Don't get me wrong, I'm in no rush to go out and dump $110k on a new truck or a $70k SUV for the wife, but...
Maybe peoples expectations have changed? Vehicles are definitely more expensive, but it seems a lot of people are reluctant to buy older used vehicles.
There's almost 1800 cars for sale within 150km of Edmonton for less than $5000. If you can't scratch up $5k for a vehicle purchase you have...
I'm still not convinced this is over, while it did break out below the support it rapidly bounced back. That volume is insane though, 158k in a 24hr period.
You can, it's just going to lack the autostart capability of a generac, at least not without setting up your own kind of auto start transfer switch setup.
Depends what you get too, some welders like an old 300D are limited to about 2000 watts AC power.
