Snow removal costs have been rising steadily over the past few years, becoming the second biggest expense for our condo board following insurance. I wonder if it will now overtake it?

Not to be outdone, I'm sure the insurance companies will be like "Hold my beer! magic hand waving Presto - climate-related increases wah wahhh"

    Given the state of the economy, I think many people were complacent (to vote or not vote as it were) enough to stick with the incumbents ("the devil you know..."), unfortunately.

    On a side note, I am happy for the residents of Kanata South. (speaking as someone who used to work with the now former Councillor)

    Every time you hear the name "Nick Locarno", it's because Admiral Paris' staff (so that he could claim plausible deniability) have used illegally obtained temporal technology (via Section 31) to "dub" that name over any mention of Tom Paris. Unfortunately, the device required so much power, it overloaded after one of the ST TNG transmissions, and could not be sustained for any of Tom's admissions (visual or verbal) in the Voyager transmissions (likely due to being outside of the signal radius). :-P /s

    The first couple of times this happened, i thought it was just my phone acting wonky. But after having seen it now multiple times today and under similar conditions, figure it's the app.

    If I hide a post, the screen will not scroll up or down; it locks to what was on there aside from an empty space where the post was. I either have to re-load the screen (whether it's a Frontpage, local, all or mutl-community, same issue). I haven't changed any settings in months.

    Anyone experiencing similar?
