At this point, any Canadian buying USAian produce kind of deserves it.

That was my thought too. Low res some things looked a bit off, but high res is a mixture of gross and creepy.

As the owner, how would you see that and think that it'd make people come in to eat?

I get what you're saying, but I think in a world where we can swap genitals for 24hr, current medical concerns of our world don't factor in. :)

I don't know the outputs amounts, but wine is also made in Ontario and on the east coast too. I'm not a wine drinker (or at least not enough to tell the difference between good and bad wine) but I've heard some of the wines coming out of Ontario are really good.

I found this map online which looks like it may give some more information: https://vineyards.com/wine-map/canada

I'm far from an expert so take what I'm saying with a grain of salt. What I've been seeing is that poisoning is becoming less and effective since all the major models have such a large reference to go by they can automatically weed out "poisoned" information.

I guess if the information was completely unique and the subject wasn't found elsewhere on the internet you might have more success, at least temporarily until more information came out.

Not to defend developers, but to everyone bringing up cheap materials and assuming the developers were hoping to duck out before issues arose, if you read the article you'll see the building was a preexisting office building being converted to residential units. Not a new build.

The current renovations likely removed some needed support and the remaining structure couldn't handle it. Mistake (engineering calculation) or greed (removing more than stated to include more units) are both possible.

Everyone is mentioning Safeway, but I've rented/seen them in a variety of larger grocery stores. Might be worth checking other chains too if they are more convenient.

Jesus....I know modern cars crumple for safety, but how the hell could you get enough speed in a parking garage to do that???

This is my own opinion so someone may have proof and an argument otherwise.

Québec has always had a bit of unique relationship with the rest if Canada, largely due to the language difference and the French identity around that. It's different than somewhere with French roots, you cross the border and it is adamantly French. While there are certainty people in the province that have the average Canadian level of French (almost none) there is a large population with the opposite (minimal to no English). Stats Canada would probably have the exact numbers. I personally felt Québec (as a province/politically) was more the sibling that considered themselves enlightened, but came across as somewhat pretentious. However, tRump 2.0 did something completely in expected. With the ongoing sovereignty threats to Canada Québec took a slide towards Canada.

Alberta (province/politically) is just delusional and needs medical assistance.

It does work well, letter gets sent to me and ends up in my mailbox.

I think they mean the net profit isn't as high as they'd like it to be. Which it shouldn't need to be since it's a government service.

Personally, I think a better option than stopping home delivery (as is happening) would be to reduce the number of delivery days per week.
