Telus has much better packages than what they advertise online, you just have to call and ask. Even if you work for a larger company, often they have unadvertised discounts. You just need access to an email address for the company when initially setting it up. $60-$65 per month for unlimited...

I spent some time touring through Panama early last year. Boquete was a nice area. Lots of retired expats there. Weather was cooler and windy, almost too much so for me. Driving from David it’s a continual climb up the volcano mountains to get to Boquete, so kind of depends how far up you go...

I second Heavenly Gates. I did the supply only and looked after install myself. Don’t cheap out on the foundation or whatever you’re going to anchor them too. Any slight movement on the hinge side will be amplified in the middle. The gates themselves can be straightforward depending on...

I’d first check to make sure 1 of the hoses comes from the discharge side of the water pump, before the rad. If both hoses go back to the block there won’t be a pressure differential to create flow. Usually the pump will be enough alone to push out the air. It’ll take some time and a few...

I’ve had this card for years and look annually to try and find another that would be better, haven’t found one yet. Cash back is best for me and this is consistently the best card overall I find. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Fixed rates have worked well for me for many years now. I use to be with Encor/Epcor, but switched to ATCO and have been happy. I’ve rarely seen the floating rate prices cheaper than the fixed price. The monthly administration cost is also significantly less when fixed. This is for electricity...

What brand / model do you have? I agree with keeping the temp a little warmer as well. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I have a reznor UDAP forced air heater. It works well to circulate the air and evaporate the moisture, just need a way to then get the moisture out of the air. Ventilation fan would probably work, but seems very inefficient. Would also need a fresh air inlet for it to work otherwise the exhaust...

I have a floor drain and excellent slope, so no pooling water. When it’s cold out and the vehicles come in fairly dry, it’s not an issue. But when it’s warmer and vehicles in/out daily with some snow and slush on them, the humidity gets up there even with little to no physical puddles on the...

Curious what everyone finds to work the best for reducing humidity in your garages? I’ve had a 50-pint portable dehumidifier for the last number of years and it has worked well, but recently isn’t performing anymore. It seems to be an issue with the compressor that isn’t worth fixing. Looking at...

Alta Gas has their new RIPET facility operating now too. For years all the facilities around Edmonton generating propane as an offstream and almost having to pay to get rid of it the market was so flooded, now they finally have an economical option to sell into. All going to Asia. It’s raising...

Has had some challenges over the years for sure, but it’s proven it can produce more than design already. Had a good sized turnaround this fall, so hopefully they fixed what they needed to and can stay online for a long while now. Compared to Shell, Suncor, and Esso, NWR is just a small drop in...

Isn’t dyed fuel still exempt from the federal carbon tax as well, plus the .09 provincial tax? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Here’s the detailed breakdown of exactly which items are included for each category in how the CPI is tabulated https://www.statcan.gc.ca/en/statistical-programs/document/2301_D68_V1 Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

This is how StatsCan explains where they collect the data for the Consumer Price Index (inflation) from: https://www23.statcan.gc.ca/imdb/p2SV.pl?Function=getSurvey&SDDS=2301#a2 There’s a few other links and pages on the stats can site for the CPI with different info and tools to look at as...

What is everyone’s need for having to split firewood? As long as it’s dry and properly seasoned a full log will burn much longer and yield better heat overall compared to the same log that is split in half or quarters. Unless it’s for a small aesthetic fireplace, a stove big enough for actually...

Koutouki is a really good Greek restaurant if you’re in to that. They have a chefs special option on the menu where they bring smaller portions of lots of different things, all were really good. Been twice, very low key and quiet both times. Gyu Kaku - Korean BBQ, different and fun environment...

Can definitely hide it and chance it easy enough. All ok unless a guy happens to get in an accident… then it’s up to insurance to decide if they’ll cover you or not. Fire or no fire, some of the adjusters out there can make your life real difficult and say that it was a contributing factor...

Removing the SIM card just means the phone won’t connect to the cell network (ie Rogers, Telus, Bell, etc). It can still connect to wifi and everything will function normally. No worries about passwords, security, etc. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
