Re: Ontario car insurance - UK experience not being recognised

Not at all, car insurance in Ontario is completely different matter. Plenty of companies here will take in to account UK history and our premiums are tiny compared to Ontario.

Re: Working in US for Canadian Company

Re: Working in US for Canadian Company

Re: Skype Interview tips

I agree on this. I had a Skype interview I did while staying in a Docklands hotel in London. I just put a shirt on and didn't even tuck it in and had jeans on. During the interview the noise from the...

Re: Instant Coffee

We have a Nespresso and yes I think it is the best pod system there is. Problem is ours is a UK unit and still not got round to getting the huge transformer it requires, 1500W I believe.

Re: Car bomb drinks / donuts

Well it's called an Irish Car Bomb in most places I have seen it and involves Irish beer and spirits so I do find it offensive. I recall being out one night and when people heard where I was from...

Re: Buying a car - advice needed please

That sounds like a terrible discount IMO. Admittedly I have only purchased 2 vehicles here but both I negotiated 10% of the sticker price. Also is it really such a good deal? I did a search on Kijiji...

Re: Triazolam - serious questions

I also had benzos before laser eye surgery. I wasn't particularly anxious about it but was casually offered them and thought why the heck not. Super chilled throughout and few hours after.

Re: Help me pick a car please.....

I drive both in winter so feel qualified to say it is not essential to have AWD. A FWD with good snow tires is fine. Saying that - the AWD is the easiest to drive in the conditions so if not...

Re: Help me pick a car please.....

They do when they need a larger family vehicle than a car and of course they are going to apply the same principles of what they like as much as possible. Most people do not have A6 Avant money and...

Re: Help me pick a car please.....

OK and respect for the 87 LC - you are qualified :) Yes the 4Runner has been smoothed out and refined over the years but a very different vehicle to a Dodge Caravan. I chose 4Runner on purpose - I...

Re: Help me pick a car please.....

Even if you are only allowed to go 100km some people like getting to 100 faster lol. I do agree that having more power is more fun on the bendy country roads rather than just straight line driving. ...
