I think Rob was the user and Doug was the dealer right? Or am I getting that mixed up?

I was actually in both the Bay Area and Portland last month and have to agree. Let Oregon have this one. Even the people in Portland had bigfoot energy. Big scruffy men with tons of facial hair, flannel, and those longshoreman beanies. And I actually picked up a Sasquatch field guide someplace that was the most amazingly detailed document on a cryptid I'd ever seen.
Yeah and she really loves her uke she bought from them. I think it's her favourite instrument these days! It has a great tone.
My wife plays a Honolua uke at our gigs pretty often. They are a Canadian company, though I just asked her and she said not everything in their catalog was homegrown back when she bought it, so you might want to check with them before ordering?
Digital services tend to be an area where the US enjoys huge trade surpluses. If that pandora's box is opened, it's going to be really bad for the tech giants when retaliatory steps are inevitably taken. I thought this was why Trump was trying to keep the tariff war focused on material goods?
I know in Canada, FB stopped serving news when they refused to contribute to a government fund to help the struggling domestic journalism industry which they were scraping content from with reckless abandon. Personally, I'm happy to see one less stifling algorithm-fed echo chamber. It's like a breath of fresh air.
I'm so looking forward to what JUICE uncovers! Europa has been centre stage and is getting its own dedicated mission, but the more we find out about those outer moons, the more fascinating they get. Ganymede is the largest in the solar system and has its own magnetic field. And Callisto being an ocean world? It wouldn't surprise me if Ganymede is also.
I guess I'm mostly a Harvey's guy as far as Canadian fast food chains are concerned. Pizza, subs, shawarma, etc. are up there too, though there are too many of those to list.
My daughter took me to Odd Burger when I was up in Ottawa and I could totally get into that if only we had one where I am.
The situation is not great in that those instances that are Canadian-oriented don't seem to have open membership. I wound up going with freediverse which is at least hosted in Canada and subscribed to Canadian channels I follow on those other instances.
This is awesome. Thanks for doing this!
That's a good point. I wouldn't mind just scanning the bar code.
My guess would be they'll be similar to our existing green bins? They use a fairly heavy duty plastic except for that latch part that I've had break on me a few times.
I'm trying to picture 120L. They say in the article that our green bins are currently 80L. I'm kind of hoping the new ones won't be too tall and skinny like those though? Garbage bags tend to swell out sideways and it could be hard to push them down in there. The article shows one that looks wider and squatter and another that looks taller, but I think those are just stock photos so who knows?
I switched from Shoppers to Pharmasave, mainly because a branch opened up right down the street from me and was therefore closer than Shoppers. But I'm super happy I did so. I'm on a first name basis with the pharmacist and he's really good. I bring in an empty and he's got it refilled in like a minute and a half. And when I had problems with an insurance claim for a prescription, he actually called the company for me and sorted it out.
