    SDM is the weak Achilles that we need to attack. If there is one part of the boycott we need to hold, its this.

    its always been a threat. Speed would sell his grandmother for crack money. that's why it's important to promote this place, right now. the entire movement could die overnight if the sub were quarantined.

    As a person, you don’t get to choose what laws you follow.

    Corporations on the other hand, can break whatever laws they want, pay a business tax/fine and keep on doing it. Its interesting to see the narratives on both sides and the deep divide we have in the middle, in this country. US vs THEM play book as the 1930's

    google will block all of canada until the government is quickly overthrown by all the Canadian corporations that are utterly fucked without google services. It would take a day at most.

    all for it. Every time I race in europe I very much enjoy this engineering concept put into action. The Netherlands & Denmark has it completely figured out and it works great.

    The government must enforce the fucking laws that already exist. We have safe passing distance laws here, ive got plenty of video of idiots swerving in on me let alone not giving the proper distance. Send that to cops, they do NOTHING.

    the only thing that seems to get the point across is mass protest rides tying up commutes on a regular basis for 12h. THEN suddenly there is an enforcement blitz, and then it slowly faids off again.

    AWD helps, but knowing your vehicle and how it performs in the snow, will get you further than fancy devices. Now having the skills AND the fancy devices will take you almost anywhere.

    when I was a kid, living on the prairies, the first winter I had my driver's licence I went out to this big huge and very empty parking lot and started off having fun doing doughnuts. but then I started getting a feel for how it responds when it's on the edge of control. and was practicing skid turns, regaining control etc. A RCMP car eventually came by, and just sat there for a min or two. I was thinking Uh oh.. but he flicked on his lights, and I came to a stop, he walked over and asked what I was doing. I guess I gave the correct answer "learning how to drive in the snow". He told me he got a "stunting complaint", but he could clearly see that I wasn't doing it entirely for thrills, or I would have been just burning those doughnuts. He gave me a few tips, on how to recover from a skid better, and told me to knock it off at that location but told me about another lot I could try and practice a bit more.

    That interaction has literally saved my life a number of times, by giving me the skills early on how to recover when the vehicle is at the edge of control. I worked a career driving, never ended up in the ditch (touch wood) and have driven through the hairiest storms you can imagine.

    Learn your vehicle, learn how to push it to the edge, and how to come back. (but do so in a safe place)

    i think the notwithstanding clause is a provincial thing, not a federal thing. Its a concession the feds had to make in order to change the constitution in the 80's

    its a tool. like a wrench. Use it as its meant to be used, it works great. Unfortunately, it is possible to use a wrench to pound in a screw.

    oh if you really want to jump down the rabbit hole, just read "your consent is not required". everything you say, or even don't say is considered "disordered thinking" if a psychiatrist decided it is. they are literally the chiropractors of the MD world, everything is based on opinion and drug company statements with SFA to back it up.

    how the hell is the province going to find a buyer in their right mind to buy this? I would feel like there is a huge target on my back.

    especially the new 988 number. It's a literal industry built upon forcibly institutionalizing and drugging victims under the guise of "mental health care".

    read/listen to Rob Wipond's book - your consent is not required. then you will realize the pandemic was just a test run. eventually, anyone who opposes TPTB will be deemed mentally ill and drugged into submission.

    at this point, just get back onto a bike. Had major reconstructive surgery, and it's killing me to have all this nice weather and not even a single-century ride to show for it.
