Elon is certainly doing his best to achive prat status. He was cool when he was the underdog, and his companies are obviously cool, but Musk himself? That big head is getting bigger all the time.

Only if it is being 'imported' from another province or country. If not, then no inspection is required.

Re: Random stuff - the anything else thread
Isuspect that Amazon have some sort of algorythm on twitter, I put a comment about getting one genuine email from Amazon and my next e mail was also from 'Amazon' stating my account had been locked, obviously spam as the originating e mail address was just a collection of letters and numbers. Withing 10 mins I had received a reply from Amazon on twitter hoping I was still able to log in to them, I said yes, they were happy I had sorted it out.

I think this kind of protest is largely instigated by some kind of right wing Donald Trump related US organization, trying to get a foot into Canada. |

I don't think that the majority of truck drivers in Canada support this kind of idiotic protest, also I don't think that any majority in Canada would support this way of protest as well.

We don't want a damn thing to do with Quebec. Trump has little power in the US. His reign is over and dead to everyone but himself. |

America does NOT want a foothold in Canada. We don't want a damn thing to do with Quebec. On Sunday, Bruce Heyman, a US ambassador under President Barack Obama, said this interference had to end. “Canada-US relations used to be mainly about solving technical issues,’ he tweeted. “Today Canada is unfortunately experiencing radical US politicians involving themselves in Canadian domestic issues. Trump and his followers are a threat not just to the US but to all democracies. “Under no circumstances should any group in the USA fund disruptive activities in Canada. Period. Full stop.†Trump has little power in the US. His reign is over and dead to everyone but himself. |

in Alberta if the car is older the insurance may ask for an inspection, bc might be the same.
However, if a cop pulls you over and they see something dodgy, they can demand you take the car for an inspection within 7 days to make sure it passes a safety inspection. |
