Where in the world have you ever witnessed hitting 100c?

You're correct but they're not taking about lotto/gambling winnings

I've previously used YNAB but all of these budgeting apps are fairly similar. I think YNAB does have two different ways to sync accounts vs some of the competitors where they use only one way to sync accounts which sometimes causes issues syncing or even with which accounts you can sync with.

Besides the above I would like to point out that YNAB runs a bit differently than a basic budgeting app. With YNAB you do have a budget but it forces you to assign every cent and then you have to do as planned (with flexibility of course) but I find others that they only provide a dashboard somewhat like an overview.

An example would be Mint. Had it for years, configured and it was synced with my accounts. I used this as a quick overview of how my accounts were looking vs an budgeting program to help get my finances sorted. Then I got YNAB and I'm not exactly sure why but paying off CCs and building a savings happened without having to force anything on my end.

Now you are you, I am myself. Give something a shot with honest effort. If you're putting your best foot forward and getting help if you're ever stuck or have a question, and it's not working out in ~3 months, change it.

Nationalize Telco, Groceries, Insurance, Utilities, Education. For local, by local.

If done correctly (big stretch here, and without the corruption that is already blatantly happening within our borders) it should drive prices hard enough to increase competition especially if someone wants to maintain a company. No more of this bullshit multi named single company operations.

No my guy, the hero doesn't always win in the real world. This is where you get placed on PIP or start having performance issues, or get a promotion to a different team where there is a clash with your new manager.

Given any opportunity I will always be for a union but good damn if the cards aren't stacked against unions.

Time to name and shame that's some of the stupidest shit I've seen in a long time.

I know ATB so a Treasury not really a bank but they had an infuriating way of logging in as well.

After dealing with the big 4 I ended up using simplii for a while and they seem alright.

What do you mean banks are hostile towards password managers? I have yet to find a bank website or app that gives bitwarden any issue. Prior to LastPass becoming total shit I never had a problem with them either.

Or hear me out here instead of selling out to companies from other countries that don't give a single fuck about Canadians or companies that already operate here that once again give no fucks about the people that are employed by them we should take use and harness the resources that we have.

While I'm neither pro nor con for oil, it's one hell of a resource and we already have tons of people who are experienced in the field that could get put on for work.

Now with that I would also like to also see the oil being kept up here in Canada instead of selling it to the states for pennies and then being brought right back up to be sold for dollars. Yes I am fully aware that this is an extremely simplified extrapolation of what is going on.

One pipe dream if I may, is having our own public energy sector in Canada. Meaning in this case oil is drilled out by Canadians, with proper policies to take care of the land, where old wells and sites are actually cleaned up cared of. More directional drilling vs fracking. Employees are not abused to shit or have to work feeling that there is an axe at their neck based on global issues. And all of this goes to fellow Canadians so they are able to do as needed.

The thing is we have larger issues in the country than just the over simplification listed above. So maybe, you are correct, just leave it in the ground.

Toyota Motor Corp. is urging owners of certain older vehicle models to stop driving and get immediate repairs because an airbag inflator could explode and potentially kill motorists.

The Japanese automaker said the "Do not drive" advisory covers some 2003-04 model year Corolla, 2003-04 Corolla Matrix and 2004-05 RAV4s with Takata airbag inflators.

Toyota Canada spokesperson Philippe Crowe said the air bag warning is not new, but the company is taking the step to warn drivers who have not yet responded to the Takata recall from 2015.

"The 'stop driving' notice is being sent to owners of vehicles who have not, after many communications attempt, had the recall procedure done on their vehicle," he said in an email.

Crowe said the Canadian recall affects 7,300 vehicles in Canada, and owners of the affected vehicles can contact a Toyota dealership to have the recall procedure done free of charge.

Owners who believe their vehicle could be included can check Toyota's website.

More than 30 deaths worldwide and hundreds of injuries in vehicles since 2009 are linked to Takata airbag inflators that can explode, unleashing metal shrapnel inside cars and trucks.

In 2015, Takata Corp. agreed to declare 33.8 million airbags defective in the largest auto recall in history. At the time, eleven automakers, including Honda and Toyota, recalled 36 million vehicles worldwide.
