    Since remotes don’t consume a lot of juice, I usually will put the non rechargeable batteries in the charger for like 5 minutes, while monitoring them for temperature or anything out of the ordinary. That usually gives the remote a whole month worth of energy (granted, we don’t use it much).

    Never try this if you’re prone to being distracted and forgetting them in there though, that’s recipe for a fire.











  • I mean, I might be wrong, but from a quick research, it seems that our program is still more lenient than (most?) other provinces. e.g. :

    • people from non-reciprocal jurisdiction can drive for 6 months with their permit from their country of provenance. Alberta is 90 days. Manitoba is 3 months.
    • Like in these provinces, you now gotta take a driver’s test. If you fail, you get demoted to apprentice, not completely permitless. Sure, being an apprentice driver can be constraining - more or less depending on your situation - but it’s not something that can’t be remedied in the following year.

    I am in no way knowledgeable of the intricacies of policies on the right to drive a vehicle, but from what I gather, it seems to all be pretty regular and taking into account data. Now, is the data good? I am not in a place to say, so if you’re educated about that let us know what you find reprehensible in there.

    And all that doesn’t removes from the fact that our infrastructure is not properly maintained and developed, and hat many people in the province are not courteous drivers, in some region more than others (from my experience growing up outside of Montreal before moving to the city - where I come from, most drivers seemed to be motivated to make your life miserable).






  • If we’re open to suggestion, I’d love if we could collectively agree to take a few basic human rights from them, and have a reality TV crew follow them 24/7 while they get all their capital seized, and seeing their daily struggle because they don’t know any useful skill.

    Those that lose all their faux friends and have nowhere to go could go live in the Mansion, where they’d be subjected to humiliating daily games related to all the sins they committed as traitors to humankind.

    I would finally be a reality tv fan.
