True but those positions along with directorships are limited. If you're smart enough to be a successful lawyer/engineer/doctor/business owner/tradesman (i.e. the types of people you'd want running the government) then you won't be looking to land a cushy job for the pension -- you'd be looking...

Not to mention the pay is pitiful compared to what a smart professional could earn in the real world.

US gun stores can't sell guns in the non-residents. Sure there might be a few disreputable FFL's kicking around, but by and large most stores won't do it. The guns smuggled into Canada were likely already straw purchased in the US, then sold to the Canadian smuggler who brings it across the...

ITT Authoritarians upset not everyone is abiding by their personal interpretation of the government's "lockdown". Goofs gathering in large groups and publicizing it. There is a middle ground, use your head and find it.

Last mile logistics are the most important, yet most expensive and complicated to coordinate. Even a highly technical + advanced company like Amazon is going to struggle if their demand surges 200%. Add to the fact that delivery contractors may struggle in procuring vans (rental companies not...

It definitely happens in Canada too and it's a symptom of the political party apparatus adopting a life of its own, thus becoming too large and out of touch with voting interests. In the US it's exacerbated by their coupling of corporate interests into the political machine. It's actually quite...

I'm not so sure university even teaches you that these days. I graduated university ~3 years ago (STEM program), and it was basically a glorified high school where most students were treated like children, and a lot of the students acted accordingly. Ideally critical thinking should (and used...

I think it's a personal choice, and there is a balance to be struck. Shaming people isn't going to lead to anything. There is nothing wrong with well planned, short, solo jaunts just to get fresh air. Of course I am also advocating a high degree of caution -- ATGATT, be on high alert, ride...

I'm looking to get a new or gently used (haven't decided) bike over the winter, when do most dealerships have good sales/try to liquidate old inventory?

So I was looking around today for possible candidates for a first bike and I came across a Kymco bike, the Quannon 150. Costs about $4200 (new). Anyone own it/thoughts on Kymco stuff?
