Crowd forms at sole Service Ontario location open for written driver’s tests

Only 1 Service Ontario centre is open across the province for new drivers to write their driver's tests amid the pandemic.

www.cp24.com

The centre, at 777 Bay Street, is the only location across the province open for drivers to write their level one (G1) test amid the COVID-19 pandemic

Joshua Tuoootte from Warsaw, Ont. got in line at 11:30 p.m. Thursday night to write his motorcycle license test (M1).

Tuoootte was lucky enough to receive a ticket for an appointment today before the centre cut off the line.

“My buddy was actually turned away,” said Tuoootte. He came with me and we camped out all night and he got turned away right after I got my ticket.”

Warsaw! I know where that is, there's a street corner there.
... well actually it's just a T in the road.

Ontario reported 455 new cases of novel coronavirus on Saturday as the total case count surpassed 30,000 in the province. The new case count is the highest single day total in almost two weeks but includes what the province calls 68 previous cases from “a laboratory-to-public health reporting...

It's ok. At least nobody lost their sanity because they couldn't go out for their little bit of pleasure.

We're screwed.

In fairness 68 of the cases were from delayed reporting so it’s more in line with the high 300’s we’ve been getting for the last week or so. Also important to mention they have been testing over 20,000 people a day.

I’m more optimistic then most around here but I really find the recent amount of tests in relation to positive cases a good sign.

That makes as much sense as someone only pissing in their end of the swimming pool.

You want to hide . Then hide . You never need to leave your house . If you have not figured out yet you have been had . You can't go to work because you get fined . But you can protest as long it fits the governments narrative . Not sure how you ride a bike .

Do the math you can piss in the average pool and it makes no diffrence

That makes as much sense as someone only pissing in their end of the swimming pool.

The average 15 x 30 pool holds about 20K gallons . Do you think pissing a litre of fluid will effect the the water . The piss will have the same chance of effecting you as you catching the VID . You are taking more of a chance riding and dying then dying from the VID .

Could people please stop buying lawnmowers and appliances through the mail?

We used to skate there. The new city hall was a cluster . . . .
Actually, we used to shop in the Eatons. The wooden escalator was funky.

What are you doing for hair care? According to a legalistic buddy one must be a licensed barber to cut hair.

So are you getting a new style, shaving the scalp, ponytailing, self-maiming?

So far the muppet/fraggle rock look. It's getting really warm though. I would buzz it off but my wife has strongly suggested that she is not on board with that plan.

Snip any strands that start dangling in front of my eyes ...

My 7 yr old grandaughter told me that my daughters and their partners have a plan to find out once and for all that i am dyeing my hair.(no grey)
I'll fix them.When they come over i'll be sure to leave viagara and prep h on the bathroom counters where they can see it in their search for the hair dye.

My wife has cut my hair for years now. 1/4 in the winter 1/8th when it warms up.

As far as I know you need to be licensed to be a hair stylist as you’re dealing with chemicals.

anyone can cut hair. It’s the chemicals that make a difference. As for me....razor right to the scalp. Shaved it 3 years ago and never looked back.

I’ve also heard through the grapevine that there are a lot of stylists that are doing the basement salon thing and business is booming. Just look around, the women that are styled and have a fresh cut are easy to spot. Same for the guys.

you can only do so much on your own.

My wife's hair lady works out of her house. The best we can figure she is making ~$150K a year in cash. She travels often (you need to burn the cash somewhere untraceable). She has been shut down for covid so far, we'll see when she reopens. I suspect some hairstylists that were paying for a chair in a salon may realize that the home/travel to client model is viable and not return to the salon.

Sail just whacked a bunch of stores (including Vaughan). I always found they had better prices and better selection than MEC. I can't see MEC being far behind (and am actually surprised they have lasted this long).

On a slightly related note, if a gun store bails and is sitting on a lot of firearms that just became prohibited what happens? The receiver keeps them locked up until JT figures out how to implement his dumb program? They get turned in for $0 and crushed? They get turned in for an IOU? I assume the receiver isn't allowed to transfer them to anybody. With Sail I would assume Sail Vaughan could transfer weapons to a different sail store.

That's crappy, I love shopping at Sail. Not surprised though, I have never seen many people in any of their stores

since we're talking hair, I started losing my'n around 17 (genetics, but Im sure the moose/hair products didnt help)
by 20 I was full Jason Statham

Been that way ever since.

Some of my friends have spend money on hair plugs/surgery but I always thought that was dumb

How long does that last them?
From what I understand, whatever caused hair loss the first time around will slowly but surely affect the new implants as well, no?

In university, one guy always wore a ball cap. I thought nothing of it until we had and exam and wasn't allowed to wear it. Cue ball on top. Normal hair on the sides. That's why he wore the hat. I hadn't seen someone that young unintentionally bald before.
