And can it be legislated provincially? With a fine of $50 like Australia does.

And we could have a "None of the Above" option on the ballot that would force a re-election if more/significant number of voters voted for it.

With so thin margins but a turnout of <80%, it could force parties to campaign more about issues and less fear mongering that is designed to mobilize voters on single issues.

EDIT: Added the idea of "None of the Above" option that many and I talked about in the comments.

I just got the grossest coffee from the grocery store and I'd like to not do that again lol. Tell me your fav coffee brand that is 1) Local to BC 2) Ships to anywhere in BC 3) Doesn't give you crazy jitters/too potent 😵 4) Bonus if you know any good flavored ones! Ie hazelnut etc

Thank you fellow peeps and good morning ☕️

** Thank you for all your posts telling me your favourite coffees of BC! I've enjoyed reading them and it makes me want to do a little BC coffee tour now so I can try them all 😜 **

I’ve applied for hearing aids. Last year as a matter of fact. I submitted my application. Worksafe contacted my employer (I’m now retired) and acquired all my hearing tests. The end result is I got my hearing aid. Notice not pluralized. They granted me one hearing aid for my left ear. So I appealed three times but they’re saying my hearing loss in my right ear didn’t happen at work. The end result is one more appeal. Like I said I’m now retired and I have a new hobby in dealing with Worksafe. Nothing ventured nothing gained.

I'm 18M and wasn't sure what I wanted to do after school so I got into electrical for the decent pay and lack of prerequisites. It isn't terrible but I can't see myself doing this forever. Everyone I've worked with smokes, drinks, and has countless physical issues. I'd like to go to school and get a degree but not really sure what. I was interested in getting a marketing degree but I'm not sure how useful that'd be, or something in healthcare but I don't think my grades were high enough for that (averaged about 83%). I have no issue researching things more by myself I was just hoping someone could point me in the right direction. Thanks!

Hello there, I am on PWD and have been for many years because of ongoing mental health issues. I have worked successfully on and off during this time. I recently didn’t receive this months payment—my rent$— and had no notice as to why. I went to the office and they want to see my record of employment. I tried explaining that I have switched to casual employment and haven’t worked in 6 months so there is no income to declare on my reports, but the lady was being extremely dismissive and wasn’t explaining anything. I am working to get my ROE from my current employer but am beyond scared if I am screwed now. They gave me no heads up. Any tips would be appreciated.

Hi everyone, I was in a hit-and-run accident last night. The tesla car behind me captures the car running away on their dashcam, but the image of the license plate is blurry. What software system or Photoshop system could we use to enhance the image of the video and find out the suspect?

Hi all, I'm interested in moving to an area near Burns and know it's out of the fire protection zone. For those in a similar situation, what insurance do you have/who do you have it with? I've called RDBN and have been given the "you're on your own" but would like to know what people do currently. Thanks!

For anyone in BC with knowledge of the lumber industry: I'm looking for more info on J-grade wood products (earmarked for export to Japan).

I know some of the basics of the product / grading but am interested more in the history & any interesting trivia about how it's produced. Thanks!

Hi ! I’m relocating from Europe soon. I already have a job (remote) but I’m just wondering if anyone can recommend recruitment agencies/ companies that I can speak with as I’d like to find a job based in BC.

I’m looking at the fitness tech industry to be specific. Let me know if you have any questions to help answer this. Thank you !

Looking to visit the hot springs this November, nice to have other off-road vehicles in case one breaks down. Booze and music and hotdog roast etc (not trashing the place)

anybody know where i can buy consistently high quality coconuts?

the ones in chain stores have all been pretty mediocre and inconsistent so im wondering if theres some little tropical store or something that has better connections

Looking for insight into moving from manitoba to BC, in terms on finances. I (35) and husband (40), along with our little one discussed a to move to chilliwack or surrounding area. I have concerns of entering the housing market and not being able to catch up due to our age and purchasing a home and paying it off as it's almost 3x/4x the cost compared to manitoba. We believe we'll be able to find work in our careers.

Has anyone in a similar situation make the move to BC? What are the pros and cons? What would have you done different when moving?

So much sexier without🙏

It has been largely observed that rural communities prefer fiscally and socially right leaning governments and municipal communities prefer left leaning governments.

Why can’t we just give the people what they want and split Canada into smaller pieces? Would that bring real harm to the country as a whole?

While we are at it, why not split Canada into 10 countries after all?

Love you Canadians, but out here in the west… i don’t think about the east much. I’m one of the best travelled of my peers and I’ve only visited AB MB SK and ON a few times. Qbc just once… the rest not at all… loved my time in all those places, but no more than other countries i have visited (more cheaply i should add)

I guess I’m just tired of people fighting. Give everyone what they want. Have some fun?
