Hi, this morning I was returning home on 737 Carnarvon St. and found around 10 people blocking the garage entrance. As I waved my hand to ask for more space to let my car in I got verbally assaulted. As you drive in you could see people lighting pipes and tinfoil, others negotiating their dose with money on hand. Finally got inside the garage and could still hear shouting.

I had to call the non-emergency police line and got treated harshly again, like making me feel guilty I had called at all. After I fully identified myself and forcefully answer strict yes/no questions they said they will send somebody.

Before our building manager could wave off a couple people to move along but now the

I'm sure this has come up many times. What chance do we have to ask for some speed enforcement on Highway 1? Specially on the stretch of Cassiar tunnel, Burnaby to port Man bridge?

Posted speed is 90, I go 100 and is as if I'm crawling with people whipping passed me.

Do we write down plates? Report it to someone? Or just learn to live with it.

I'm not naive, but why wait until we see something serious and then shrug it off and claim it on high speed driving.

EDIT: Thanks for all the replies. I just felt frustrated but I've learned to probably keep at 110 if traffic flow allows. Either way just let people pass or don't pass if you see a fast train of cars approaching. If you show some d

I have a Nissan Cube 2009 manual trans. Basically has the same mechanical bits as a Versa/Tiida. It has 140k Kms (86k miles)

When cruising at normal speeds on the highway I can hear a rumbling noise that changes rhythmically. It seems to be in the transmission but that's my first guess. It's on its second set of tires (Nokian).

I also find it a little more squirly on the steering wheel. That normally fine on a windy day but I believe I'm feeling it more and more on normal days. But this is basically a box on wheels so I get pushed around with crosswinds all the time.

I changed the manual transmission oil around 60k Kms (37k miles).

Thanks.

I just got power back up here in Langley and learning that I must not rely 100% on BCHydro for any rapid response. I expect my area has a lower priority compared to more populated parts of the region.

I feel I need to prepare for the next storm, winter is where we've had major winds in the past so maybe there might be another one coming.

What would you recommend for an urban emergency kit?

  • I was thinking on small camping gear so I can heat a small pot or can.

  • Are there small gas generators that can be placed on a balcony or patio?

  • How would you go about connecting the generator to your house? I suppose you disconnect from the main source coming from the street. Is just flipping

Hi, I've been wondering what would be the best french school to go for a total beginner. Since I arrived to Canada many years ago I really wanted to learn it, to me is part of the process in becoming Canadian. I took a look at the Alliance Francaise but seems too pricey, unless it's worth every dollar, I would like to consider some other alternatives.

I figured a tutor is not my best option at the moment since I want to interact with other students and in a way improve with them. Would there be anything reasonable for 1 to 3 months for no more than a couple hundred?

Thanks!

Hi, I noticed that when stopped in traffic and having the AC/Defroster on sometimes the rpm dial goes lower than normal and the engine seems about to stall. I usually give it some gas to bring it back to normal.

Could this be a sign of something to fix soon? Nissan Cube 2009, stnd, base model.
